Tag: Pregnancy: Risks

Causes include fetal death of unspecified cause, fetus affected by complications of placenta, cord, and membranes

Predictors of detectable IgG in infants at delivery also included third-trimester infection, mild/moderate and severe/critical disease

Consistent but mostly statistically nonsignificant associations observed for gestational phthalate metabolite levels and lower FVC, FEV₁ at ages 4 to 11 years

A large proportion of this association was mediated by hypertensive disorders

Periconceptional maternal smoking of ≥10 cigarettes/day showed strongest link, reflected by 0.9-day delay in reaching final Carnegie stage

Traditional risk factors such as subsequent diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia only partially contribute to higher risk

Findings reported among women at high risk due to prepregnancy diabetes, obesity, and/or chronic hypertension

Risk for severe maternal morbidities and maternal mortality higher for pregnant women who have disabilities, regardless of disability type

Pregnant women diagnosed during the first wave of COVID-19 had higher frequency of maternal morbidities

Risk for any cancer increased in association with first-trimester exposure; risk increased with number of injections
