RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed at assessing perioperative results of robot-assisted laparoscopy (RAL) in the context of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). METHODS: This retrospective French multicentric study included all patients with DIE who underwent surgical treatment managed by RAL (Da Vinci® System). From November 2008 to June 2019, patients were included in a single European database, in Robotic Assisted Laparoscopic Gynecologic Surgery, with Society of European Robotic Gynecological Surgery collaboration. Patients had different DIE sites as follows: gynecological, urological, or digestive, or combinations of these. Surgical procedures and perioperative complications were evaluated. To assess complications, patients were divided into the following four groups according to surgical procedure and DIE site: gynecological only; gynecological and urological; gynecological and digestive; and gynecological, urological, and digestive. RESULTS: A total of 460 patients treated at one of eight health-care facilities from November 2008 to June 2019 were included. Median operative time was 245 min (IQR 186-320), surgeon console time was 138 ± 75 min and estimated blood loss was 70.0 mL ± 107 mL. Among this patient sample, 42.1% had a multidisciplinary surgical approach with a digestive or urology surgeon in addition to gynecology surgeon (25.5% and 16.6% of cases, respectively). Among those with intraoperative complications (n = 25, 5.4%) were primarily conversion to laparotomy (n = 6, 2.0%), transfusion (n = 2, 0.6%), and organ wounds (n = 8, 1.7%). Overall, 5.6% had severe postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo classification ≥ Grade 3). CONCLUSION: This is among the largest published series addressing RAL for DIE. Interest in this procedure appears promising, with no observed increases in blood loss or in peri- or post-operative complications. DIE laparoscopic surgery can require complex surgical procedures performed by multidisciplinary surgical teams. Thus, it may be one of the best candidates for RAL within gynecology surgery.

Fetal well-being during labor is usually assessed by visual analysis of a fetal heart rate (FHR) tracing. Our primary objective was to evaluate the ability of automated heart rate variability (HRV) analysis methods, including our new fetal stress index (FSI), to predict neonatal acidosis. 552 intrapartum recordings were analyzed. The analysis occurred in the last 90 min before birth and was conducted during two 5-min intervals: (i) a stable period of FHR and (ii) the period corresponding to the maximum FSI value. For each period, we computed the mean FHR, FSI, short-term variability (STV), and long-term variability (LTV). Visual FHR interpretation was performed using the FIGO classification. The population was separated into two groups: (i) an acidotic group with an arterial pH at birth ≤ 7.10 and a control group. Prediction of a neonatal pH ≤ 7.10 was assessed by computing the receiver-operating characteristic area under the curve (AUC). FHR, FSI, STV, and LTV did not differ significantly between groups during the stable period. During the FSI max peak period, LTV and STV correlated significantly in the acidotic group (- 5.85 ± 2.19, p = 0.010 and - 0.62 ± 0.29, p = 0.037, respectively). The AUC values were 0.569 for FIGO classification, 0.595 for STV, and 0.622 for LTV. The multivariate model (FIGO, FSI, FC, STV, LTV) had the greatest accuracy for predicting acidosis (AUC = 0.719). FSI was not predictive of neonatal acidosis probably because of the low quality of the FHR signal in cardiotocography. When used separately, HRV indexes and visual FHR analysis were poor predictors of neonatal acidosis. Including all indexes in a multivariate model increased the predictive ability.

OBJECTIVE: To compare vaginal prostaglandins with oral misoprostol as a second line of cervical ripening after using a cervical balloon catheter. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This is a retrospective monocentric study (Lille, France), according to a "before"/"after" design. The inclusion criteria were a singleton pregnancy, with a fetus in cephalic presentation, a term >37 WA, with a cervix having a Bishop score lower than 6 after a first line of maturation by cervical balloon catheter. Two groups were formed: "before" corresponding to the continuation of maturation by vaginal prostaglandins, from March 2019 to November 2019, and "after": corresponding to the continuation of maturation by oral misoprostol, from June 2020 to December 2020. The primary outcome was vaginal delivery rate. RESULTS: One hundred women were included in each group. The rate of vaginal delivery was similar between the 2 groups (76% vs 81%, p=0.39), as were the times between the start of induction and the birth and between the start of induction and the transition to birth room. There was no difference in the indication for caesarean section, with in particular an identical rate of caesarean sections for induction failure (p=0.52). Subgroup analysis in obese women showed a significantly higher rate of vaginal delivery in the "after" group (OR=4.17;95% CI [1.02;17.07]). CONCLUSION: The vaginal delivery rate is similar when using vaginal prostaglandins or oral misoprostol as second line cervical ripening after use of a cervical balloon catheter.

BACKGROUND: During childbirth, the performance of a systematic Couder's maneuver could be linked to a reduction in the risk of perineal tear. OBJECTIVE: To know the practices and knowledge of childbirth professionals regarding the Couder's maneuver. To measure the effect of a training program for juniors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Single-center questionnaire survey of senior and junior obstetricians and midwives. Before-and-after study in juniors to evaluate maneuver training. RESULTS: One hundred and twenty-five caregivers responded to the questionnaire: (19 physicians and 46 senior midwives; 21 residents and 39 midwifery students). Only one third of the respondents said they practiced the Couder's maneuver "always or almost always" (41/125, 32.8%) and less than one third felt "very comfortable" with the maneuver (34/125, 27.2%), with large differences according to profession and senior vs junior status. Being a doctor (vs midwife) was significantly related to systematic or frequent practice of the maneuver (70.0 vs 15.3%, ORMH=42.7 [9.4; 192.3]) as was being a senior (vs junior) (46.2 vs 18.3%, ORMH=15.9 [3.5; 72.9]). Less than half of the seniors surveyed had received education in maneuvering. Of those who did not practice the maneuver, the majority did not consider its systematic practice to be useful (19/26, 73.1%), and one third considered it potentially harmful (8/26, 30.8%). Theoretical and practical training of the juniors significantly improved their knowledge. CONCLUSION: There are great differences in the practice of the Couder's maneuver. It deserves to be better known, practiced and evaluated.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the use of simulation among French Obstetrics and Gynecology residency programs. METHODS: A survey was conducted with all 28 French residency program directors. The questionnaire covered equipment and human resources, training programs, types of simulation tools and time spent. RESULTS: Of the cities hosting a residency program, 93% (26/28) responded regarding equipment and human resources, and 75% (21/28) responded regarding training program details. All respondents declared having at least one structure dedicated to simulation. A formal training program was reported by 81% (21/26) of cities. This training program was mandatory in 73% of the cases. There was a median number of seven senior trainers involved, three of whom had received a specific training in medical education. Most of declared simulation activities concerned technical skills in obstetrics and surgery. Simulations to practice breaking bad news were offered by 62% (13/21) of cities. The median number of half-days spent annually on simulation training was 55 (IQR: 38-83). CONCLUSION: Simulation training is now widely available among French residency programs. There remains heterogeneity between centers regarding equipment, time spent and content of simulation curricula. The French College of Teachers of Gynecology and Obstetrics has proposed a roadmap for the content of simulation-based training based on the results of this survey. An inventory of all existing "train the trainers" simulation programs in France is also provided.

Aims: There are few published data on the putative association between the ABO blood group/rhesus (Rh) factor and the risk of developing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Our aim was to explore the link between each one factor and GDM development. Methods: All women having given birth at Lille University Medical Center (Lille, France) between August 1st, 2017, and February 28th, 2018, were tested for GDM, using the method recommended in the French national guidelines. The risk of GDM was assessed for each ABO blood group, each Rh phenotype and combinations thereof, using logistic regression models. Results: 1194 women had at least one GDM risk factor. The percentage of GDM varied with the ABO group (p=0.013). Relative to group O women, group AB women were more likely to develop GDM (OR = 2.50, 95% CI [1.43 to 4.36], p=0.001). Compared with the Rh-positive O group, only the Rh-positive AB group had an elevated risk of developing GDM (OR = 3.02, 95% CI [1.69 to 5.39], p < 0.001). Conclusions: Our results showed that Rh-positive group AB women have a greater risk of GDM. With a view to preventing GDM, at-risk individuals could be identified by considering the ABO blood group phenotype either as a single risk factor or in combination with other risk factors.

OBJECTIVE: Breech presentation at term accounts for around 5% of births. Few studies have evaluated the effectiveness of different induction methods for breech presentations. We aim to compare the mode of delivery after induction by intra cervical dilatation balloon compared to prostaglandin (PGE2) in breech presentation. We also evaluated the risk factors associated with a failure of induction. METHODS: Single-center retrospective study from January 2000 to December 2020 including all women induced from 36 weeks, breech presentation, with a single pregnancy without contraindication to vaginal delivery and with an unfavorable cervix (Bishop<6). The primary endpoint was the mode of delivery. Failure of induction was defined as the need of a cesarean section. RESULTS: One hundred seventy six patients were included, 96 in the balloon group and 80 in the prostaglandin group. The cesarean section rate in the balloon group was not significantly different from the prostaglandin group (34.4% vs. 26.3%, p= 0.24). Fifty percent of the patients in the balloon group required additional maturation with prostaglandins after the balloon was dropped or removed. In our overall population, the factors associated with induction failure were nulliparity (OR= 3.144; CI95%: (1.496-6.661)) and BMI > 30 kg/m2 (OR= 3.15 CI95%: (1,374 - 7,224)). CONCLUSION: Mode of delivery after mechanical methods in breech delivery induction appears similar to prostaglandins. However, it should be noted that in half of the cases, additional maturation with prostaglandin was necessary, calling into question the value of the mechanical methods. Factors associated with cesarean were maternal characteristics (nulliparity and BMI > 30 kg/m2) but not induction method.

BACKGROUND: Breech presentation of the first twin occurs in 20% of twin pregnancies. However, the impact of delivery mode on morbimortality in breech fetuses remains controversial in the literature generally, and has been infrequently studied in twin pregnancies specifically. The aim herein was to evaluate neonatal and maternal outcomes according to delivery mode when the first twin was in breech presentation, and to compare these results with those in the current literature. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This was a single-center, retrospective study in Lille, France, from January 2010 to December 2017, including twin pregnancies in which the first twin was in breech presentation and delivery was after 32 weeks of amenorrhea. Two groups were defined: planned vaginal delivery (PVD) and planned cesarean delivery (PCD). The primary outcome was neonatal morbidities, defined as a 5-minute Apgar score < 7, cord pH < 7.10 at birth, sepsis, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. RESULTS: Among the 184 patients included, 116 attempted a vaginal delivery (63%). Morbidity did not differ between PVD and PCD for the first twin (12/116 (10.3%) versus 7/68 (10.3%), respectively, p = 0.99), the second twin (18/116 (15.5%) versus 7/68 (10.3%), respectively, p = 0.31), or either twin (27/116 (23.2%) versus 11/68 (16.2%), respectively, p = 0.25). The rate of postpartum hemorrhage was significantly lower in the PVD group (PVD 36/116 (31%) versus PCD 41/68 (58.8%), p = 0.001). CONCLUSION: PVD is a reasonable option when the first twin is in breech presentation with probably no higher neonatal mortality and morbidity and less risk of maternal severe postpartum hemorrhage.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the management of patients with 1st trimester nausea and vomiting and hyperemesis gravidarum. METHODS: A panel of experts participated in a formal consensus process, including focus groups and two Delphi rounds. RESULTS: Hyperemesis gravidarum is distinguished from nausea and vomiting during pregnancy by weight loss≥5 % or signs of dehydration or a PUQE score≥7. Hospitalization is proposed when there is, at least, one of the following criteria: weight loss≥10%, one or more clinical signs of dehydration, PUQE (Pregnancy Unique Quantification of Emesis and nausea) score≥13, hypokalemia<3.0mmol/L, hyponatremia<120mmol/L, elevated serum creatinine>100µmol/L or resistance to treatment. Prenatal vitamins and iron supplementation should be stopped without stopping folic acid supplementation. Diet and lifestyle should be adjusted according to symptoms. Aromatherapy is not to be used. If the PUQE score is<6, even in the absence of proof of their benefit, ginger, pyridoxine (B6 vitamin), acupuncture or electrostimulation can be used, even in the absence of proof of benefit. It is proposed that drugs or combinations of drugs associated with the least severe and least frequent side effects should always be chosen for uses in 1st, 2nd or 3rd intention, taking into account the absence of superiority of a class over another to reduce the symptoms of nausea and vomiting of pregnancy and hypermesis gravidarum. To prevent Gayet Wernicke encephalopathy, Vitamin B1 must systematically be administered for hyperemesis gravidarum needing parenteral rehydration. Patients hospitalized for hyperemesis gravidarum should not be placed in isolation (put in the dark, confiscation of the mobile phone or ban on visits, etc.). Psychological support should be offered to all patients with hyperemesis gravidarum as well as information on patient' associations involved in supporting these women and their families. When returning home after hospitalization, care will be organized around a referring doctor. CONCLUSION: This work should contribute to improving the care of women with hyperemesis gravidarum. However, given the paucity in number and quality of the literature, researchers must invest in the field of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy, and HG to identify strategies to improve the quality of life of women with nausea and vomiting in pregnancy or hyperemesis gravidarum.

BACKGROUND: The Fetal Blood Sample (FBS) is used as an indicator of fetal acidosis during labor. Its place is discussed through the lack of randomized trials, as well as the limitations related to the technical procedure. An alternative could be the Fetal Scalp Stimulation (FSS). AIM: Our objective was to describe the FSS diagnostic value to predict fetal wellbeing defined from FBS. METHODS: The FSS consisted in a digital scalp stimulation for 15 s. Test was negative when an acceleration and/or a normal variability were elicited in the 2 min following. FSS was performed before each FBS which was classified as normal when pH was > 7.25. The diagnostic value was assessed by sensibility, specificity, positive and negative predictive values. FINDINGS: 148 women were included in our center from February to December 2019. Of the 191 FBS procedures, when accelerations were elicited sensibility was 58,3 (36.8-77.1), specificity was 67,5 (59.3-75), positive predictive value was 20,9 (12.5-32.9) and negative predictive value was 91.7 % (95 %CI, 85-95.5). DISCUSSION: FBS is considered as the gold standard in our study which could be discussed as it is abandoned in some countries because of its questioned reliability and the lack of controlled randomized trials. CONCLUSION: This study suggests that FSS could be an interesting alternative adjunctive test to perform in the first instance as it seems to be reliable, non-invasive and easy to perform in order to limit FBS only to absence of acceleration after FSS.

INTRODUCTION: Evaluation of fetal well-being during labor is based on fetal heart rate (FHR) analysis, which requires physiology expertise. The aim of the present study was to assess medical residents' fetal physiology training in terms of theoretical knowledge, FHR interpretation, and use of second-line examinations. METHODS: This single-center, prospective study of obstetrics and gynecology residents (N = 34) at CHU de Lille Hospital (Lille, France) was conducted from November 2017 to November 2018. Evaluation and training were conducted in three stages. First, residents' pre-training knowledge of FHR interpretation and use of fetal scalp blood sampling (FBS) was assessed using clinical cases. Second, a didactic training session on fetal physiology was delivered. Finally, post-training knowledge was evaluated using the same cases presented during pre-training. I: Pre-training, 3%, 11.8%, and 14.7% of residents considered their training on fetal physiology, FHR analysis, and second-line examinations, respectively, to be sufficient. Training significantly improved their theoretical knowledge, which was assessed using multiple-choice questions (median [interquartile range]: 1.5 [1.0-2.0] vs. 4.0 [3.0-4.5], p<0.001), and reduced the number of FBS requested (36.3% vs. 29.5%, p = 0.002). Krippendorff's alpha coefficient for the reproducibility of residents' responses improved significantly, reflecting greater homogenization of clinical practice decisions (alpha [95% confidence interval]: 0.60 [0.55-0.65] vs. 0.72 [0.67-0.76]). CONCLUSION: Improved fetal physiology knowledge promotes more accurate FHR interpretation, better indications for second-line examinations, and greater homogenization of clinical practice decisions. Future studies should evaluate the impact of fetal physiology training on clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate oxytocin use and impact on maternal and fetal morbidity before and after implementation of a protocol based on national recommendations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A single-center retrospective before-and-after study (Lille, France). A service protocol to harmonize the use of oxytocin was implemented in May 2017 following national recommendations. Data were collected from January to March 2016 for period 1, and from January to March 2019 for period 2. Nulliparous patients in spontaneous labor=37SA delivering a live newborn in cephalic presentation were included. The primary outcome was the use of oxytocin. RESULTS: Five hundred eighty-seven patients were included, 302 for period 1 and 285 for period 2. The rate of oxytocin use was 48% (n=144) in 2016 versus 28% (n=79) in 2019 (P<0.001). Total labor time was significantly longer after protocol implementation (425.7min vs. 510.4min ; P<0.001). The cesarean section rate was identical between the 2 periods (7.0% vs. 6.0%; P=0.62). The rate of postpartum hemorrhage greater than 500mL was higher in period 1 (17.7% vs. 10.9%; P=0.019), as was the occurrence of a pH<7.05 (5.4% vs. 1.1%; P=0.004). CONCLUSION: The implementation of a protocol contributed to a decrease in the use of oxytocin and thus would allow a decrease in the rate of postpartum hemorrhage and neonatal acidosis, but with an increase in the duration of labor.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of our study was to evaluate the impact of the lockdown period on the glycemic balance in patients with GDM. METHODS: A retrospective study in one center (Lille, France) compared two periods: the COVID-19 lockdown of 18 March 2020 to 7 May 2020 versus the same period during 2019. Glucose targets were defined by a capillary fasting glucose target < 5.1mmol/L and/or a 2-hour postprandial capillary glucose < 6.6 mmol/L. GDM control was defined as: good (< 20% of the glycemic values were not within the target range), acceptable (20 to 40% of the glycemic values were not within the target range) or poor (> 40% of the glycemic values were not within the target range). RESULTS: Two hundred twenty-nine patients were included in 2019 and 222 in 2020. The same mean number of capillary blood sugar tests was performed by the two groups. Postprandial blood sugar was significantly less well controlled in 2020, with a lower rate of good control (61.6% vs 69.4%) and higher rates of acceptable (24.7% vs 21.8%) and poor control (13.7% and 8.7%) (p < 0.05). Use of insulin therapy was significantly higher in 2020 compared with 2019 (47.7% and 36.2%, respectively; p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Diabetes control was lower during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown, even if follow-up was not impacted. This may be explained by reduced physical activity, modified dietary habits and anxiety during this period.

Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is one of the leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality world-wide. The arrival of intrauterine balloon devices has revolutionised PPH management. However, it seems interesting to know the situations of failure to improve the management. The objective is to define the factors related to failure of intrauterine balloon tamponade (IUBT) in women with a postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) after vaginal delivery, and especially blood loss after placement to avoid delaying management. Retrospective cohort study was conducted in 2 centers. All PPH after vaginal deliveries treated by IUBT were included. Two groups were defined (successes and failures) and compared. Failure was defined as the need of invasive procedure. Calculated area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and thresholds of bleeding at 10 min were also calculated for prediction of failure. 127 women were included. The overall success rate was 78.0 % (95 % CI 70.7-85.1 %). Blood loss at 10 min was factor prognostic of early IUBT failure. The ROC curve of blood loss at 10 min for prediction of failure of IUBT had an area under the curve of 0.876 (95 % CI 0.782-0.970). The predictive positive value of blood loss at 10 min were respectively 0.53, 0.8 and 0.94 for blood loss of 100, 200 and 250 mL. Physicians should be alerted if blood loss are more than 200 mL at 10 min after placement of IUBT and considered invasive procedure if more than 250 mL to avoid delaying management of PPH.

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the complications rate of cesarean section delivery based on degree of labour emergency. STUDY DESIGN: Monocentric (Lille, France), retrospective study of all term, singleton, and cesarean deliveries during labour. Three groups were categorized based on the degree of emergency according to a color code: green (no time limit between surgical decision and birth), orange (birth within 30 min), and red (birth within 20 min). Scheduled cesareans were excluded. Complications were defined as minor/major and intra-/post-operative. RESULTS: A total of 881 patients were included. Among these, 303 (34.5 %) were in the green group, 353 (40.1 %) in the orange group, and 225 (25.4 %) in the red group. Major intra-operative complications, mainly postpartum hemorrhage, were more frequent in the red group compared with the green group (16.9 % vs. 9.9 %, p = 0.05; OR 1.9; 95 % CI [1.1-3.1]). Among the minor complications, there was no difference on moderate postpartum hemorrhage and four times uterine artery wounds in the red group (1.7 % vs. 7.1 %, respectively; p = 0.007; OR 4.6; 95 % CI [1.6-12.6]). The overall major post-operative complication rate, mainly infectious morbidity, was 6.1 % and this was more frequent in the red group compared with the green group (12.4 % vs. 1.7 %, respectively; p < 0.0001; OR 8.5; 95 % CI [3.2-22.3]). CONCLUSION: Pre- and post-operative complications of cesarean section delivery during labour (i.e., emergency cesarean) increase with the degree of labour emergency. It would be ideal to identify women in labour who are at increased risk of emergency cesarean earlier, so that the situation does not escalate to a red code cesarean.

OBJECTIVES: Evaluate the influence of rupture of membranes (spontaneous or artificial) on fetal heart rate. Secondary objectives were to compare spontaneous and artificial ruptures and to investigate the risk factors associated with the occurrence of abnormalities of fetal heart rate (FHR). METHODS: This is a monocentric retrospective study (Lille, France) from January to March 2018. All low-risk pregnancies with cephalic presentation, spontaneous labor, gestational age more than 37 weeks of amenorrhea, singleton pregnancy, absence of maternal or fetal pathology were included. The elements sought were the occurrence of bradycardia, tachycardia, decelerations (early, late, typical variable, atypical variable, prolonged) and abnormal variability. FHR was analyzed one hour before and one hour after rupture. The groups with and without abnormalities of FHR were compared according to the type of rupture. RESULTS: Two hundred and thirty-three patients were included. A total of 44.54% (n=129, P<0.001) showed abnormalities of FHR after rupture of membranes. In the fetal heart rate time study after the rupture event, prolonged decelerations were more frequent in the first quarter hour compared to the second quarter hour. There was significantly more risk of abnormalities of fetal heart rate if the fetal heart rate before the rupture of membranes was already pathological, as well as if the time between rupture and delivery was short. The type of rupture, artificial or spontaneous, was not a risk factor. CONCLUSION: The rupture of membranes increased the occurrence of abnormalities of FHR. However, there is no more deleterious impact of one type of rupture than the other.

OBJECTIVES: Delivery mode of term breech presentation is still being discussed. The aim of this study was to compare the labor management of a breech presentation to a vertex presentation during a vaginal delivery attempt. METHODS: It was a single-center, comparative, descriptive retrospective study from 2014 to 2017. We studied fetal heart rate (FHR) during labor and expulsion, duration of the different stage of labor, mode of delivery and neonatal outcomes for breech and vertex presentations. RESULTS: Two hundred and thirty-nine patients were included whom 106 (44%) breech presentation. The use of oxytocin was more common in breech group (63,2% versus 48,1%, P=0.020). Average dilatation rate was slower for breech presentation than for vertex presentation (1.9cm/h vs. 2.8cm/h; P=0.005). There was more FHR with high risk of acidosis in the breech presentations (37.2% vs 19.1%, P=0.001) and Melchior's FHR classification were comparable in both groups. CONCLUSIONS: The per-partum management of a fetus in breech presentation differs from a fetus in cephalic presentation. It must be known and anticipated for an optimal management in the delivery room.

OBJECTIVE: Define the prevalence of OSA in a population of obese pregnant women. Secondary objectives were to assess its obstetric consequences and define its risk factors in this population. METHODS: This single-center prospective study took place at the Lille University Hospital from 2010 to 2016 and included pregnant women with a body mass index (BMI) > 35 kg/m2. They underwent polysomnography (type 1 sleep testing) between 24 and 32 weeks of gestation to diagnose OSA. Clinical, obstetric, and fetal data were collected monthly and at delivery. We compared the groups with and without OSA and calculated its prevalence. RESULTS: This study included 67 women with a mean BMI of 42.4 ± 6.2 kg/m2. Among them, 29 had OSA, for a prevalence of 43.3% (95% confidence interval, 31.4-55.2); it was mild or moderate in 25 women and severe in 4. Comparison of the two groups showed that women in the OSA group were older (31.9 ± 4.7 years vs 29.5 ± 4.8 years, P = .045), had chronic hypertension more frequently (37.9% vs 7.9%, P = .0027), and had a higher mean BMI (43.8 ± 6.2 kg/m2 vs 41.2 ± 6 kg/m2, P = .045). During pregnancy, they developed gestational diabetes more often (48.3% vs 23.7%, P = .04). No significant differences were observed for any of the other criteria studied. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of OSA was high in our study, and women with it developed gestational diabetes during pregnancy more often. No other obstetric complications were observed.

Obesity is a major public health problem. Pregnant women are also affected by this epidemic. In pregnant women, obesity increases obstetric and neonatal complications, and is associated with alterations in the quality of labor that could be explained by reduced myometrial contractility. This leads to an increase in the rate of caesarean sections and postpartum haemorrhages in this population at risk. Adipokines, hormones secreted by adipose tissue, may have a role in altering the myometrial contractility. Weight loss in these patients is based on dietary management and on physical activity, which could be a way to improve adipokines action and uterine contractility. The objective of this literature review was to review current knowledge about the role of adipokines on uterine contractility in obese pregnant women and to assess the interest of sport in improving contractility and in reducing obstetric complications in these women.
