The objective: to study the structure and frequency of complications of pregnancy, deliveries and perinatal outcomes in three groups of women: women with infertility and obesity, treated by application of in vitro fertilization (hereinafter IVF), pregnant women after IVF application with normal body weight, and pregnant women on the background of obesity which did not have an infertility in past history. Materials and methods. A retrospective analysis of 221 case histories of pregnancies and labors in women who were treated and gave birth in the Pregnancy and delivery pathology Department of SI «Institute of Pediatrics, Obstetrics and Gynecology named after Acad. O. M. Lukyanova of NAMS of Ukraine» for 2012 – 2016 years was carried out. Results. The overwhelming majority of pregnant women after IVF on the background of obesity are primaparas, who have a complicated obstetric history, hormonal changes in the form of progesterone deficiency predominantly and chronic inflammatory processes. Pregnancy with a combination of infertility, treated by the means of IVF application, and obesity, in most cases is accompanied by a long-term threat of termination of pregnancy (48.8%), threatening preterm deliveries (56%), placental dysfunction (41.5%), premature rupture of the amniotic membranes (41.5%), other problems during pregnancy, at the same time, every second woman (58.5%) had a combination of several complications, and required a long-term and repeated inpatient treatment (53.7%). The specific gravity of surgical delivery was 90%, and 16.2% of such deliveries were complicated by pathological blood loss. The number of preterm deliveries was 17.1%, with perinatal losses up to 11.3‰. Among full-term newborns 21.3% of newborns had malnutrition of the I degree and 17% of them had hypoxic-ischemic lesion of CNS. Conclusion. The course of pregnancy, delivery and the postpartum period in the studied contingent of women has a significant frequency of complications, mainly the coinciding ones, which affects on the consequences of perinatal outcomes and requires further study of this problem and the development of differentiated algorithms for antenatal observation. Key words: pregnancy, obesity, in vitro fertilization, complications, delivery, newborn.

Abstract Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of women with tuberculosis after in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) and natural pregnancy.Design/Methods: Ninety-five pregnant women with tuberculosis admitted to Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center between February 2013 and July 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into 24 cases of IVF-ET with tuberculosis and 71 cases of natural pregnancy group with tuberculosis. Baseline demographic, medical history were collected. We used descriptive statistics to describe demographic, clinical features and prognosis of pregnant women with tuberculosis using Pearson chi-squared, Fisher’s exact tests, or Kruskal-Wallis.Results: The incidence of fever, hematogenous disseminated pulmonary, drug-induced liver injury and fetal adverse outcomes in IVF-ET group were higher than those in natural pregnancy group (p<0.05). The lymphocyte count, hemoglobin level, albumin level and the number of CD4+T lymphocyte、CD8+ T lymphocyte in IVF-ET group were significantly lower than that in natural pregnancy group (p<0.05).Conclusions: Pregnant women with tuberculosis after in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer have broader lung lesions, more prominent symptoms of systemic poisoning, larger proportion of severe tuberculosis, more prone to anti-tuberculosis drugs induced liver injury and higher proportion of spontaneous abortion and inevitable abortion, which calls for enough attentions.

Objective This observational, clinical study was designed to assess the role of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), sirtuin 6 (SIRT6), and resveratrol in in vitro fertilization (IVF). Methods Paired serum and follicular fluid (FF) samples were obtained from 30 consecutive patients (age: 36.43 ± 4.17 years, body mass index: 22.90 ± 2.05 kg/m2, duration of infertility: 5.10 ± 2.80 years) who received IVF treatment. SIRT1, SIRT6, and resveratrol levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results Ovarian hyperstimulation resulted in significantly higher serum SIRT1 levels in pregnant women (8 patients) compared with non-pregnant women (22 patients). SIRT6 levels remained unchanged after ovarian hyperstimulation, but were significantly lower in pregnant women compared with non-pregnant women before and after hyperstimulation. Both SIRTs were detected in FF, but they appeared to be independent of their serum levels. After correction for confounders, FF SIRT6 levels were positively related to mature oocytes (F = 6.609), whereas serum SIRT1 and SIRT6 levels were related to clinical pregnancy (F = 10.008, F = 5.268, respectively). Conclusions Our study shows that SIRT1 and SIRT6, but not resveratrol, are involved in human reproduction and they may have a role in oocyte maturation and clinical pregnancy in IVF.

The article is a part of the research project at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology No.2 of Higher Education Institution Poltava State Medical University "The role of chronic infection of the uterus and lower genital tract in the formation of obstetric and gynecological pathology" (state registration No. 0117U005276, implementation period 2017-2022). In modern reproductive medicine, infertility in marriage is considered a problem of particular importance. That is why modern assisted reproductive technologies are chosen as a method of treatment for many married couples, and their increased application necessitates intensive monitoring of the course of pregnancy and delivery. Pregnant women after in vitro fertilization programs are at high risk of miscarriage and preterm birth. The aim of the research was to study the features of pregnancy, childbirth and the condition of newborns in women after in vitro fertilization, which are classified as high risk for preterm birth. Women were included in the study at 18-20 weeks 6 days of pregnancy. We examined 85 women who became pregnant after in vitro fertilization (study group A: 37 pregnant women who refused preventive treatment and received medications in accordance with regulations; study group B: 48 pregnant women who have received the proposed treatment since their inclusion in the study. The control group included 20 apparently healthy pregnant women with its natural pregnancy onset. In pregnant women of study group A, pregnancies ended in premature birth by 1.7 times more often, and most of them occurred before 34 weeks; during pregnancy, there was a greater risk of preterm birth, which required enhanced correction in addition to conservative measures: suturing the cervix and the use of obstetric unloading pessary; the frequency of delivery by cesarean section prevailed by 1.3 times. Moreover, only in this group, pathological bleeding was observed, surgery was performed and perinatal mortality was recorded. Pregnant women who agreed to preventive treatment developed fewer preterm births after 34 weeks. Complications of pregnancy and childbirth were much less common in these women. Surgical intervention in childbirth and the frequency of delivery by cesarean section were also much less common.
