Objective: Design an “in house” software for screening preeclampsia by maternal factors and mean arterial pressure at 11 – 13 gestational weeks in commune health centers. Methods: Based on the algorithms for calculating the risk of preeclampsia (PE) by maternal factors and mean artirial pressure at 11 - 13 gestational weeks in the study results of the authors, an “in house” software was deigned in Excel. The results of prediction preeclampsia by The Fetal Medicine Foundation (FMF)(version 2.3) were compared with the results by “in house” software in 1110 singleton pregnant women. Results: The “in house” software met the requirements for calculating the risks of PE and save data. FMF risk for gestational hypertension disorder in pregnancy by maternal factors, mean arterial pressure,uterine artery Doppler and PAPP-A has an area under the curve of 0.68 (95%CI: 0.59 – 0.78). The “in house” software risk for gestational hypertension in pregnancy by maternal factors, mean arterial pressure has an area under the curve of 0.643 (0.55 – 0.73) There was no statistically significant different between two programs (p:0.52). The risk cut-off 1:50 in the prediction of gestational hypertension of the “in house” software was used to identify the group of high risk with detetion rate (DR) 28.6% (95%CI: 14.9-42.2) comparing to 40.5% (95%CI:25.6-55.3) of FMF. Conclusion: The FMF version 2.3 is better but in the absence of Doppler ultrasound and PAPP-A test in the commune health cares, the “in house” software for screening PE is a good tool for councelling, following up and early intervention for PE.

Abstract Background Antenatal women experience a higher level of mood symptoms, which have negative effects on mothers’ mental and physical health and their newborns. The relation of maternal moods including depression and anxiety and other maternal factors in pregnancy and neonate outcomes are well-studied with inconsistent findings. Although antenatal women experience a higher level of mood instability (MI), the association between antenatal MI and neonatal outcomes has not been investigated. We aimed to address this gap and to contribute to the pregnancy-neonate outcomes literature by examining the relationship between antenatal mood symptoms and other maternal factors and neonatal outcomes.Methods A prospective cohort of women (n = 555) participated in this study at early pregnancy (T1, 17.4 ± 4.9 weeks) and late pregnancy (T2, 30.6 ± 2.7 weeks). The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) was used to assess antenatal depressive symptoms, the EPDS anxiety subscale was utilized to measure anxiety symptoms, and mood instability was measured using a visual analogue scale. These mood states together with stress, social support, as well as healthy and unhealthy behaviours were also examined in relation to neonatal outcomes using chi-square tests and logistic regression models. Results Depression and MI were unrelated to adverse neonatal outcomes and anxiety was related to Apgar score with marginal statistical significance. Higher stress, lack of partner support, smoking, and primiparous status were associated with some adverse outcomes.Conclusions The current study identified no associations between antenatal mood symptoms and neonatal outcomes. Our findings further support and extend previous evidence on smoking abstinence or cessation, and the provision of resources for stress management and social support that could help prevent or alleviate adverse neonatal outcomes.

During pregnancy the pressor response to vasoconstrictor substances such as angiotensin II (ANG II) is diminished, and renal, uterine, and vascular prostaglandin (PG) production may increase. However, little is known about the factors that alter vascular reactivity or stimulate PG synthesis during pregnancy. To ascertain whether these factors are of maternal or fetal-placental origin, we studied vascular reactivity and urinary PGE excretion in pseudopregnant rats. Pseudopregnant rats had plasma progesterone and weight gain similar to that observed in pregnant rats. Urinary PG excretion in nonpregnant rats was approximately 70 ng/24 h and remained constant during a 12-day observation. In contrast, urinary PG excretion in both pregnant and in pseudopregnant rats rose to levels approximately twice control within 4-6 days. The pressor response to ANG II was diminished in pseudopregnant rats compared with nonpregnant rats. When the PG synthesis inhibitor meclofenamate was given there was no change in the pressor response to ANG II in nonpregnant animals, but in pseudopregnant animals meclofenamate produced a significant increase in the pressor response to ANG II. The pressor response to norepinephrine and arginine vasopressin (AVP) was not diminished in pseudopregnant animals, and meclofenamate did not increase the pressor response to these agents. Therefore, a developing fetus and placenta is not necessary for the decrease in pressor response to ANG II nor for the early increase in urinary PGE excretion. Like in pregnancy, the pressor response to ANG II was increased after meclofenamate in pseudopregnancy. Increased PG production may, therefore, be partly responsible for the decrease in pressor responsiveness to ANG II. However, pseudopregnancy, unlike pregnancy, did not affect pressor responsiveness to norepinephrine or AVP. Both maternal and fetal-placental factors seem required for the reduction in responsiveness to norepinephrine and AVP in pregnancy.

The present study investigates the influence of selected infant and maternal factors on the energy and macronutrient composition of mature human milk (HM). The study enrolled 77 mothers at 4–8 weeks postpartum. Each mother provided 1 sample of HM. Each extracted HM sample was formed by mixing four subsamples of HM, each of which were obtained in one predefined 6-h periods of the day. Among maternal factors, the analysis included: anthropometric data before and after pregnancy; weight gain in pregnancy; body composition, assessed using the Maltron BioScan 920-II to analyze bioimpedance; and dietary intake, assessed with three-day dietary records. Among the neonatal factors, birth weight and length, number of daily feedings and type of delivery were included. The composition of HM, including energy content, protein, fat and carbohydrate concentrations, was analyzed using the Miris human milk analyzer. Pearson’s and Spearman’s correlation coefficients and multivariable logistic regression models were used to analyze the association between the selected maternal and infant factors and HM milk composition. It was found that total protein content of HM was correlated with pre-pregnancy BMI (Spearman rho = 0.238; p = 0.037), current lean body mass (Spearman rho = −0.293, p = 0.01) and total water content (Spearman rho = −0.315, p = 0.005). Carbohydrates were the only macronutrients whose composition was significantly affected by the infant factors. It was reported that higher carbohydrate content was associated with male sex (OR = 4.52, p = 0.049). Our results show that maternal and infant factors, especially maternal pre-pregnancy and current nutritional status and infant sex, interact and affect HM composition, suggesting that macronutrient and energy content in HM may be determined in pregnancy and may have unique compositional profile for every mother–infant dyad.

SummaryIn rural Bangladesh, early fetal wastage and stillbirth are higher among pregnancy orders one and six or higher than among orders two and three. The increased risk is particularly apparent among those pregnancies following two or more previous fetal deaths. Woman in the higher pregnancy orders who have not experienced previous fetal deaths or only one fetal death have only a slight increase in the risk of fetal death compared to women in pregnancy orders two and three. The virtual absence of obstetric care and the high maternal mortality in this Bengali population may allow only woman without reproductive impairmetns to reach the higher pregnancy orders.
