Chorioamnionitis is an infection that can occur before labor, during labor, or after delivery. It can be acute, subacute, or chronic. Subacute chorioamnionitis is associated with chronic lung disease in the infant. Chronic chorioamnionitis is associated with retinopathy of prematurity, very low
OBJECTIVE
To identify the prevalence of chorioaminionitis and unique risk factors for this disorder among adolescents under 18 years of age.
METHODS
At their first prenatal visit we interviewed 352 adolescents who received prenatal care and delivered an infant at our institution between April 20,
Children born extremely preterm whose placenta had histologic evidence of chorioamnionitis have early brain dysfunction, but little is known about neurological development at 10 years of age.We investigated the association between histologic
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to identify factors associated with an increased risk of post-operative wound infection in women with chorioamnionitis who undergo cesarean delivery.
METHODS
We conducted a retrospective cohort study of women with clinical chorioamnionitis who underwent
Although bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most frequent adverse outcome for infants born at < 30 weeks gestational age, there remain major gaps in understanding the pathophysiology, and thus there are few effective targeted therapies to prevent and treat BPD. This review will focus on the
We evaluated the outcome of pregnancies complicated by preterm premature rupture of membrane (PROM) in order to determine if tobacco, alcohol, or illicit drug usage were associated with alterations in pregnancy or neonatal outcome. Comparisons in outcome were made with respect to tobacco, alcohol,
Unexpected admissions of term neonates to the neonatal intensive care unit and unexpected postnatal complications have been proposed as neonatal-focused quality metrics for intrapartum care. Previous studies have noted significant variation in overall hospital neonatal intensive care
Objective: Obesity in the USA continues to be a prominent medical and public health concern. Due to increasing rates of maternal obesity, the current Institute of Medicine (IOM) guidelines recommend 11-20 pounds of total weight gain during pregnancy in women with a BMI ≥30 kg/m2.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the risk factors for pulmonary edema in women with preterm delivery.
METHODS
This was a case-controlled study of 52 (6.7%) cases with and 722 (93.3%) cases without pulmonary edema in a cohort of women who delivered between 24 and 33 weeks. Univariate and logistic regression
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the maternal serum dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) sulfate level as a factor influencing labor "efficiency" at term.
METHODS
On admission to the labor and delivery unit, blood was collected from 55 term nulliparous women up to 25 years of age in active labor. Following delivery,
Adverse perinatal outcomes of gravidas using cocaine is well documented, but the effects on the placenta have been difficult to elucidate due to confounding factors such as concurrent use of other drugs. This study compares pathologic findings of 26 placentas from women who used only cocaine during
OBJECTIVE
There is increasing evidence that both prenatal and perinatal events influence both allergic diseases and early-life respiratory morbidity.
RESULTS
Studies in the last year have suggested that in-utero exposures including tobacco smoke exposure, dietary exposures including vitamin D, and
The origins of asthma might be traced back to events occurring during fetal life. Reduced lung development has been shown to be a risk factor both for viral induced wheeze and allergic asthma. The evidence for a causal relationship between exposure to environmental tobacco smoke, chemical domestic
Between June 26, 1985, and Feb. 24, 1989, 101 seropositive pregnant women and 129 seronegative pregnant women from the same prenatal clinics in Brooklyn and the Bronx were recruited into a prospective study of human immunodeficiency virus infection in pregnant women and their offspring. This report
We evaluated the utility of a focussed, multidisciplinary adolescent clinic in improving perinatal outcomes. The study population included all delivering unmarried teenagers (13-19 years) from January 1, 1993 to December 31, 1995 attending the focussed adolescent obstetrical clinic compared to a
