Abstract

Introduction

Adaptations to pathological intrauterine environment might differ in relation to fetal gender. We aimed to study sex-specific differences in placental pathology of pregnancies complicated by small for gestational age (SGA).

Methods

The medical records and placental histology reports of all neonates with a birth-weight ≤ 10th percentile, born between 24 and 42 weeks of gestation, during 2010–2018, were reviewed. Composite neonatal outcome was defined as one or more of early following complications: neonatal sepsis, blood transfusion, phototherapy, respiratory morbidity, cerebral morbidity, necrotizing enterocolitis, or death. Results were compared between the male and female groups of neonates. Placental lesions were classified into maternal and fetal vascular malperfusion (MVM and FVM) lesions, maternal and fetal inflammatory responses (MIR and FIR), and villitis of unknown etiology (VUE).

Results

The male SGA group (n = 380) and the female SGA group (n = 363) did not differ in regard to maternal age, BMI, smoking, associated pregnancy complications, gestational age, and mode of delivery. Neonates in the SGA male group had increased birth-weight and increased respiratory morbidity as compared to the female SGA group (p = 0.007, p = 0.005, respectively). There was no between-group differences in the rate of placental lesions. By multivariate logistic regression analysis, male gender (aOR 1.55, 95% CI 1.05–2.30, p = 0.025), FIR (aOR 4.83, 95% CI 1.07–13.66, p = 0.003), and VUE (aOR 1.89, 95% CI 1.03–3.47, p = 0.04), were found to be independently associated with adverse composite neonatal outcome.

Discussion

Male gender as well as placental FIR and VUE are independently associated with adverse neonatal outcome in SGA neonates.

Fünf Faktoren sagen Lymphödeme nach Brustkrebs voraus

Ob nach der operativen Behandlung von Brustkrebs ein Lymphödem droht, lässt sich anhand eines Risikomodells abschätzen, das auf fünf leicht verfügbaren klinischen Parametern beruht.

Höhere Trefferquoten bei Brustkrebsscreening dank KI?

Künstliche Intelligenz unterstützt bei der Auswertung von Mammografie-Screenings und senkt somit den Arbeitsaufwand für Radiologen. Wie wirken sich diese Technologien auf die Trefferquote und die Falsch-positiv-Rate aus? Das hat jetzt eine Studie aus Schweden untersucht.

Präeklampsie-Prophylaxe mit ASS: Suche nach optimaler Dosierung

Der Nutzen einer frühzeitigen Präeklampsie-Prophylaxe mit Acetylsalicylsäure steht außer Frage. Über die optimale Dosierung wird noch diskutiert. Eine Forschungsgruppe aus Schweden hat deshalb verschiedene Einnahmeregime verglichen, mit einem erstaunlichem Ergebnis.

Automatisierte Insulinabgabe hilft postpartal bei Blutzuckerkontrolle

Ergebnisse aus einer Fortsetzung der AiDAPT-Studie sprechen dafür, dass ein HCL („hybrid closed loop“)-System auch in den ersten sechs Monaten nach dem Entbinden eine bessere Blutzuckereinstellung erlaubt als eine Standardinsulinabgabe.
