Mode of delivery according to Robson classification and perinatal outcomes in restricted and small for gestational age fetuses.

Objective: To evaluate the mode of delivery according to Robson classification (RC) and the perinatal outcomes in fetal growth restriction (FGR) and small for gestational age (SGA) fetuses. Methods: Retrospective cohort study by analyzing medical records of singleton pregnancies from two consecutive years (2018 and 2019). FGR was defined according to Delphi Consensus. The Robson groups were divided into two intervals (1-5.1 and 5.2-10). Results: Total of 852 cases were included: FGR (n = 85), SGA (n = 20) and control (n=747). FGR showed higher percentages of newborns < 1,500 grams (p<0.001) and higher overall cesarean section (CS) rates (p<0.001). FGR had the highest rates of neonatal resuscitation and neonatal intensive care unit admission (p<0.001). SGA and control presented higher percentage of patients classified in 1 - 5.1 RC groups, while FGR had higher percentage in 5.2 - 10 RC groups (p<0.001). FGR, SGA and control did not differ in the mode of delivery in the 1-5.1 RC groups as all groups showed a higher percentage of vaginal deliveries (p=0.476). Conclusion: Fetuses with FGR had higher CS rates and worse perinatal outcomes than SGA and control fetuses. Most FGR fetuses were delivered by cesarean section and were allocated in 5.2 to 10 RC groups, while most SGA and control fetuses were allocated in 1 to 5.1 RC groups. Vaginal delivery occurred in nearly 60% of FGR allocated in 1-5.1 RC groups without a significant increase in perinatal morbidity. Therefore, the vaginal route should be considered in FGR fetuses.

Non-RhD alloimmunization in pregnancy: an updated review.

RhD alloimmunization in pregnancy is still the main cause of hemolytic disease of the fetus and neonate (HDFN). Nevertheless, there are other antigens that may be associated with the occurrence of this phenomenon and that have been growing in proportion, given that current prevention strategies focus only on anti-RhD antibodies. Although not widespread, the screening and diagnostic management of the disease caused by these antibodies has recommendations in the literature. For this reason, the following review was carried out with the objective of listing the main red blood cell antigen groups described - such as Rh, ABO, Kell, MNS, Duffy, Kidd, among others - addressing the clinical importance of each one, prevalence in different countries, and recommended management when detecting such antibodies during pregnancy.

Cytomegalovirus and Pregnancy: A Narrative Review.

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is the most common congenital infection worldwide, affecting between 0.7% and 1% of all live births. Approximately 11% of infected newborns are symptomatic at birth, and between 30% and 40% of these are at risk of developing long-term neurological sequelae. Until recently, the lack of an effective treatment did not justify universal testing of pregnant women. In recent years, however, valacyclovir at a dose of 8 g/day has been shown to be effective in preventing vertical transmission, and ganciclovir has been shown to be effective in preventing long-term sequelae in the treatment of symptomatic neonates. The aim of this article is to review congenital CMV infection, from its epidemiology to its treatment, using the most recent studies in the literature, and to help in the decision to modify protocols for universal testing of pregnant women according to the possibilities of each locality.

Maternal Blood Fatty Acid Levels in Fetal Growth Restriction.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the maternal blood levels of fatty acids (FAs) in pregnancies with fetal growth restriction (FGR). METHODS: This prospective cross-sectional study included pregnant women with gestational age between 26 and 37 + 6 weeks with FGR and appropriate for gestational age (AGA) fetuses. The levels of saturated, trans, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated FAs were measured using centrifugation and liquid chromatography. The Student's t-test, Mann-Whitney test, and general linear model, with gestational age and maternal weight as covariants, were used to compare FA levels and the FGR and AGA groups. The Chi-square was used to evaluate the association between groups and studied variables. RESULTS: Maternal blood sample was collected from 64 pregnant women, being 24 FGR and 40 AGA. A weak positive correlation was found between the palmitoleic acid level and maternal weight (r = 0.285, p = 0.036). A weak negative correlation was found between the gamma-linoleic acid level and gestational age (r = - 0.277, p = 0.026). The median of the elaidic acid level (2.3 vs. 4.7 ng/ml, p = 0.045) and gamma-linoleic acid (6.3 vs. 6.6 ng/ml, p = 0.024) was significantly lower in the FGR than the AGA group. The palmitoleic acid level was significantly higher in the FGR than AGA group (50.5 vs. 47.6 ng/ml, p = 0.033). CONCLUSION: Pregnant women with FGR had lower elaidic acid and gamma-linoleic acid levels and higher palmitoleic acid levels than AGA fetuses.

MéTODOS:: Este estudo prospectivo transversal incluiu gestantes com idade gestacional entre 26 e 37 semanas e 6 dias com RCF e fetos adequados para a idade gestacional (AIG). Os níveis de ácidos graxos saturados, trans, monoinsaturados e poliinsaturados foram medidos usando centrifugação e cromatografia líquida. O teste t-Student, o teste de Mann-Whitney e o modelo linear geral, com idade gestacional e peso materno como covariantes, foram utilizados para comparar os níveis de AGs e os grupos RCF e AIG. O teste Qui-quadrado foi utilizado para avaliar a associação entre os grupos e as variáveis estudadas. RESULTADOS: Amostra de sangue materno foi coletada de 64 gestantes, sendo 24 RCF e 40 AIG. Uma correlação positiva fraca foi encontrada entre o nível de ácido palmitoleico e o peso materno (r = 0,285, p = 0,036). Uma correlação negativa fraca foi encontrada entre o nível de ácido gama-linoleico e a idade gestacional (r = − 0,277, p = 0,026). A mediana do nível de ácido elaídico (2,3 vs. 4,7 ng/ml, p = 0,045) e ácido gama-linoleico (6,3 vs. 6,6 ng/ml, p = 0,024) foram significativamente menores no grupo RCF do que no grupo AIG. O nível de ácido palmitoleico foi significativamente maior no grupo RCF do que no grupo AIG (50,5 vs. 47,6 ng/ml, p = 0,033). CONCLUSãO:: Gestantes com RCF apresentaram níveis mais baixos de ácido elaídico e ácido gama-linoleico e níveis mais elevados de ácido palmitoleico do que os fetos AIG.

Maternal Blood Fatty Acid Levels in Small and Adequate for Gestational Age Pregnancies.

Background: The aim is to assess the levels of fatty acids (FAs) in pregnancies with small for gestational age (SGA) and adequate for gestational age (AGA) fetuses, constituting an association between FAs and fetal growth; according to the role of FA, lower levels were expected in SGA. Materials and Methods: This was an analytical cross-sectional study including pregnant women with gestational ages of 26-36 weeks with AGA and constitutionally SGA fetuses diagnosed by ultrasonography. The levels of saturated, trans, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids were measured using centrifugation and liquid chromatography. Student's t test and general linear model using gestational age as covariant were used to compare the levels of FAs and the groups (AGA and SGA). Chi-square was used to evaluate the association between groups and studied variables. Pearson correlation coefficient and linear regression were used to evaluate the correlation between the levels of FAs and gestational age. Results: Peripheral blood was collected from 67 pregnant women, 3 of whom were excluded from the study. No significant statistical differences were observed between SGA (n = 40) and AGA (n = 24) in relation to saturated, trans, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids (p > 0.05). There was not significant correlation between saturated, trans, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated FAs and gestational age (p > 0.05). Conclusion: The levels of saturated, trans, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated FAs were similar in constitutionally SGA and AGA fetuses.

Prediction of Lung Maturity in Fetuses with Growth Restriction through Quantitative Ultrasound Analysis.

The present study aimed to evaluate the performance of QuantusFLM software, which performs quantitative analysis of lung tissue texture through ultrasound images, in predicting lung maturity in fetal growth restriction (FGR). We included patients with singleton gestations between 34 and 38 6/7 wk and divided them into two groups: FGR and control (appropriate for gestational age [AGA]). The images were captured by ultrasound according to a specific protocol up to 48 h before delivery and analyzed with QuantusFLM software. The main clinical outcome evaluated was lung maturity (i.e., the absence of neonatal respiratory morbidity). We included 111 patients; one was excluded because of low image quality, leaving 55 patients in each group. The FGR group had a lower birth weight (2207 g vs. 2891 g, p < 0.001) and a longer stay in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) (10 d vs. 5 d, p = 0.043). QuantusFLM software was able to predict lung maturity in FGR with accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and positive and negative predictive values of 94.5%, 96.2%, 50%, 98.1% and 33.3%, respectively. QuantusFLM had good accuracy in predicting lung maturity in FGR with reliability in identifying pulmonary maturity.

The Assessment of Vitamin D Levels in Pregnant Women is not Associated to Fetal Growth Restriction: A Cross Sectional Study.

OBJECTIVE: To assess maternal serum levels of vitamin D in fetuses appropriate for gestational age (AGA), small for gestational age (SGA), and with fetal growth restriction (FGR) according to estimated fetal weight (EFW). METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 87 pregnant women between 26 and 36 weeks of gestation: 38 in the AGA group, 24 in the SGA group, and 25 in the FGR group. Maternal serum vitamin D levels were assessed using the chemiluminescence method. The Fisher exact test was used to compare the results between the groups. RESULTS: The mean ± standard deviation (SD) of maternal age (years) and body mass index (kg/m2) in the AGA, SGA, and FGR groups were 25.26 ± 8.40 / 26.57 ± 4.37; 25.04 ± 8.44 / 26.09 ± 3.94; and 25.48 ± 7.52 / 26.24 ± 4.66, respectively (p > 0.05). The maternal serum vitamin D levels (mean ± SD) of the AGA, SGA, and FGR groups were 22.47 ± 8.35 ng/mL, 24.80 ± 10.76 ng/mL, and 23.61 ± 9.98 ng/mL, respectively, but without significant differences between the groups (p = 0.672). CONCLUSION: Maternal serum vitamin D levels did not present significant differences among pregnant women with AGA, SGA, or FGR fetuses between 26 and 36 weeks of gestation according to EFW.

References Values of Fetal Heart Myocardial Volume by Three-Dimensional Ultrasound using Spatiotemporal Image Correlation and Virtual Organ Computer-Aided Analysis Methods and Their Applicability in Pregestational Diabetic Women.

OBJECTIVE: To determine reference values for myocardial volume of the fetal heart using three-dimensional ultrasound with spatiotemporal image correlation (STIC) and virtual organ computer-aided analysis (VOCAL) and to assess their applicability in women with pregestational diabetes. STUDY DESIGN: This retrospective cross-sectional study included 177 normal pregnant women with fetuses between 200/7 and 336/7 weeks of age. Fetal cardiac volumes were collected using the STIC method, and myocardial volume was obtained by subtraction of the intracavitary volumes using the VOCAL 30-degree method. Intra- and interobserver reproducibility values were determined using the concordance correlation coefficient (CCC). Sixteen women with pregestational diabetes mellitus were evaluated for validation. RESULTS: There was a strong correlation between fetal myocardial volume and gestational age (R 2 = 0.82). Intra- and interobserver reproducibility values were excellent and moderate, respectively, with CCCs of 0.99 and 0.83, respectively. There was no significant difference in mean fetal myocardial volume between normal pregnant women and those with pregestational diabetes (p = 0.64). CONCLUSION: Reference values for myocardial volume of the fetal heart were determined in normal pregnant women and were not statistically different from those in women with pregestational diabetes mellitus.

Perinatal Outcomes of Fetuses with Early Growth Restriction, Late Growth Restriction, Small for Gestational Age, and Adequate for Gestational Age.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between early-onset fetal growth restriction (FGR), late-onset FGR, small for gestational age (SGA) and adequate for gestational age (AGA) fetuses and adverse perinatal outcomes. METHODS: This was a retrospective longitudinal study in which 4 groups were evaluated: 1 - early-onset FGR (before 32 weeks) (n = 20), 2 - late-onset FGR (at or after 32 weeks) (n = 113), 3 - SGA (n = 59), 4 - AGA (n = 476). The Kaplan-Meier curve was used to compare the time from the diagnosis of FGR to birth. Logistic regression was used to determine the best predictors of adverse perinatal outcomes in fetuses with FGR and SGA. RESULTS: A longer time between the diagnosis and birth was observed for AGA than for late FGR fetuses (p < 0.001). The model including the type of FGR and the gestational age at birth was significant in predicting the risk of hospitalization in the neonatal intensive care unit (ICU) (p < 0.001). The model including only the type of FGR predicted the risk of needing neonatal resuscitation (p < 0.001), of respiratory distress (p < 0.001), and of birth at < 32, 34, and 37 weeks of gestation, respectively (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Fetal growth restriction and SGA were associated with adverse perinatal outcomes. The type of FGR at the moment of diagnosis was an independent variable to predict respiratory distress and the need for neonatal resuscitation. The model including both the type of FGR and the gestational age at birth predicted the risk of needing neonatal ICU hospitalization.

OBJETIVO: Avaliar o efeito da restrição de crescimento fetal (RCF) precoce, RCF tardio, fetos pequenos constitucionais para idade gestacional (PIG) e fetos adequados para idade gestacional (AIG) sobre resultados adversos perinatais. MéTODOS: Estudo longitudinal e retrospectivo, no qual foram avaliados quatro grupos: 1 ­ RCF precoce (< 32 semanas) (n = 20), 2 ­ RCF tardio (≥ 32 semanas) (n = 113), 3 ­ PIG (n = 59), 4 ­ AIG (n = 476). A curva de Kaplan-Meier foi utilizada para comparar o tempo entre o diagnóstico da RCF e o parto. Regressão logística foi utilizada para determinação dos melhores previsores de resultados perinatais adversos entre os fetos com RCF e PIG. RESULTADOS: Os fetos AIGs apresentaram maior tempo entre o diagnóstico e parto, enquanto fetos RCF tardio apresentaram menor tempo (p < 0,001). O modelo contendo tanto os tipos de RCF quanto a idade gestacional no momento do parto foi significativo em predizer o risco de internação na unidade de terapia intensiva (UTI) neonatal (p < 0,001). O modelo incluindo apenas o tipo de FGR prediz o risco de ressuscitação neonatal (p < 0,001), de desconforto respiratório (p < 0,001) e de nascimento < 32, 34 e 37 semanas de gestação, respectivamente (p < 0,001). CONCLUSãO: Os desvios do crescimento, RCF e PIG, foram associados a resultados perinatais adversos. O tipo de RCF no momento do diagnóstico foi variável independente para predizer necessidade de reanimação neonatal e desconforto respiratório. O modelo que incluiu o tipo de FGR e idade gestacional no nascimento prediz o risco de necessitar de internação em UTI neonatal.
