An increasing number of studies are confirming an association between periodontal disease (PD) and adverse outcomes in pregnancy. PD places pregnant women at greater risk for preterm birth than alcohol consumption or smoking. This underscores the importance of offering dental screening to women who are pregnant or contemplating pregnancy and the need for physicians who provide obstetric care to be aware of the possible connection between poor dental health and poor pregnancy outcomes.

Background: This systematic review and meta-analysis summarizes the evidence for the association between endometriosis and adverse pregnancy outcome, including gestational hypertension, pre-eclampsia, low birth weight, and small for gestational age, preterm birth, placenta previa, placental abruption, cesarean section, stillbirth, postpartum hemorrhage, spontaneous hemoperitoneum in pregnancy, and spontaneous bowel perforation in pregnancy. Methods: We performed the literature review in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA), by searches in PubMed and EMBASE, until 1 November 2020 (PROSPERO ID CRD42020213999). We included peer-reviewed observational cohort studies and case-control studies and scored them according to the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale, to assess the risk of bias and confounding. Results: 39 studies were included. Women with endometriosis had an increased risk of gestational hypertension, pre-eclampsia, preterm birth, placenta previa, placental abruption, cesarean section, and stillbirth, compared to women without endometriosis. These results remained unchanged in sub-analyses, including studies on spontaneous pregnancies only. Spontaneous hemoperitoneum in pregnancy and bowel perforation seemed to be associated with endometriosis; however, the studies were few and did not meet the inclusion criteria. Conclusions: The literature shows that endometriosis is associated with an increased risk of gestational hypertension, pre-eclampsia, preterm birth, placenta previa, placental abruption, cesarean section, and stillbirth.

Introduction. Chronic and latent infections are often activated during pregnancy.Aim - to asses the pathogenetic role of microbial pathogens in urogenital tract infection (UTI) in pregnant women.Materials and methods. 89 pregnant women underwent general clinical examination, examination of smears from urethra, vagina, cervical canal; bacteriological analysis of vaginal contents; enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, polymerase chain reaction and determination of specific antibodies for verification of herpes simplex virus (HSV) type I and II, cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr (EBV) and UTI pathogens in pregnant women in blood and mucosal scrapes.Results. Prevalence of Herpesviridae was revealed (90-100% -EBV, HSV type I and II, CMV); in 41% of cases - bacterial pathogens, in 57% of cases - Mycoplasma, Ureaplasma.Discussion. In preterm birth and pregnancy termination mycoplasma and ureaplasma were more often revealed, and in pregnancy termination - association of HSV type I and II in comparison with urgent birth; in the last equally often - HSV type I and association of HSV type I and II; in urgent birth (infection) more often - HSV type I, than association of HSV type I and II; in preterm birth more often - HSV type I, than the association of HSV types I and II, and less often than combination of HSV type I and association of HSV types I and II in pregnancy termination; in the last, the association of HSV types I and II is more common than HSV type I. Increase of TLRs genes expression levels depends on HSV type I less than from association of HSV types I and II, less than from combination of HSV type I and association of HSV types I and II (it determines the clinical manifestations of genital herpes).Conclusion. Microbial pathogens determine the character of pregnancy course, and HSV types I and II- are the triggers of the infectious process, prognosing its course.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, there was an increase in pregnancy rates in East Java. Besides efforts to suppress pregnancy rates, it is also necessary to ensure the health of the mother and fetus in order to be born healthy. The prevalence of periodontal diseases in pregnant women is high, while the dental visit of pregnant women is low. Periodontal disease is one of the risk factors of preterm birth as well as low-birth-weight (LBW) infants. In this community service, socialization held through lecture methods, QnA, discussion and self-practice procedures to maintain oral health procedures. The goal is to improve pregnant women's knowledge of the importance of dental and oral care, especially periodontal tissue during pregnancy and enhance skills of pregnant women in detecting early symptoms of periodontal diseases and to perform oral dental care independently at home. The knowledge and skills of pregnant women can be improved during this community service. By healthy periodontal tissue and teeth, it is expected that the risk of LBW infants and also preterm birth can be decreased.abstrakSelama masa pandemi Covid-19, terjadi peningkatan tingkat kehamilan di Jawa Timur. Selain usaha menekan tingkat kehamilan, perlu juga dipastikan kesehatan ibu dan janin agar lahir dengan sehat. Prevalensi kelainan periodontal pada ibu hamil tinggi sementara kunjungan ibu hamil ke dokter gigi rendah. Penyakit periodontal merupakan salah satu faktor resiko bayi lahir prematur dan juga berat badan lahir rendah (BBLR). Dalam pengabdian masyarakat ini dilakukan sosialisasi melalui metode ceramah, tanya jawab, diskusi dan praktek mandiri prosedur menjaga kesehatan rongga mulut. Tujuannya adalah meningkatkan pengetahuan ibu hamil mengenai pentingnya perawatan gigi dan mulut khususnya jaringan periodontal selama kehamilan dan meningkatnya ketrampilan ibu hamil dalam mendeteksi gejala awal kelainan periodontal dan cara melakukan perawatan gigi mulut mandiri di rumah. Pada pengabdian masyarakat ini pengetahuan dan ketrampilan ibu hamil dapat ditingkatkan. dengan jaringan periodontal dan gigi serta rongga mulut yang sehat, diharapkan resiko BBLR maupun kelahiran prematur dapat diturunkan.
