How this and related findings could yield much needed ways to prevent premature labor; How controls on parturition in humans differ from sheep; How a protein called corticotropin-releasing hormone regulates parturition. INSET: An Evolutionary Clue from Toads.

مستخلص: A recent study conducted in Sweden examined the impact of maternal pheochromocytoma (PPGL) on both the mother and child during childbirth. The study found that while preterm delivery was more common in mothers with PPGL, there were no cases of maternal or fetal mortality. Additionally, there were no observed long-term impacts on the children. The study suggests the need for increased awareness of this diagnosis and highlights the importance of timely tumor removal.

مستخلص: A recent report from researchers at Eindhoven University of Technology discusses the development of an extrauterine environment for extremely premature infants, known as Artificial Placenta and Artificial Womb (APAW) technology. This technology aims to provide an optimal environment for newborn development by allowing further lung maturation and delaying gas exposure to oxygen. The report analyzes relevant fetal physiology literature, provides insights from APAW studies, and identifies considerations for the obstetric procedure of transferring an infant from the native uterus to an APAW system. The researchers also provide suggestions to improve sterility, fetal and maternal well-being, and the prevention of neonatal transition. [Extracted from the article]

مستخلص: A recent study conducted by researchers from the University of Indonesia examined the association between antenatal care (ANC) utilization and low birth weight (LBW) children among women with high-risk births. The study utilized data from the 2017 Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey and found that adequate ANC utilization was significantly associated with LBW among women with more than two children. Preterm birth was also found to be more likely to result in LBW. The researchers concluded that there is a need for increased monitoring of pregnant women with high-risk births and for improved implementation of qualified ANC standards.

مستخلص: A study conducted by Anhui Medical University in China found that preterm birth (PTB) children have lower immune persistence after receiving the hepatitis B vaccine compared to full-term children. The study included 1027 participants, with 505 PTB children and 522 full-term children. The PTB group had a significantly lower negative rate of hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) and a lower geometric mean concentration (GMC) of HBsAb compared to the control group. The study suggests that very preterm infants and preterm low birth weight infants may require priority for booster vaccination. [Extracted from the article]

مستخلص: This article focuses on a new study which shows that mercury may be responsible for causing premature birth. The study was conducted by Fei Xue of the Harvard School of Public Health and her colleagues. The researchers found that those who ate more fish tended to carry more mercury. It was also found that women who gave birth more than two weeks early were having mercury concentrations of at least 0.55 ppm in comparison to those who carried their babies to term.
