Comparison of placenta samples with contamination controls does not provide evidence for a distinct placenta microbiota.
Abigail Lauder,Aoife M. Roche,Scott Sherrill-Mix,Aubrey Bailey,Alice Laughlin,Kyle Bittinger,Rita Leite,Michal A. Elovitz,Samuel Parry,Frederic D. Bushman +9 more
TL;DR: This sample set could not distinguish between placental samples and contamination introduced during DNA purification, and no placental bacterial lineages were shared between extraction methods, though oral and vaginal samples showed characteristic, distinctive composition.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the immunogenicity and reactogenicity of coronavirus disease 2019 messenger RNA vaccination in pregnant and lactating women compared with: (1) non-pregnant controls and (2) natural infection in pregnancy.
Journal ArticleDOI
A New Model for Inflammation-Induced Preterm Birth: The Role of Platelet-Activating Factor and Toll-Like Receptor-4
TL;DR: In this paper, a unique, reproducible mouse model of localized intrauterine inflammation was presented, which showed that platelet-activating factor is a crucial mediator of both inflammation-induced preterm birth and fetal demise.
Journal ArticleDOI
Animal models of preterm birth
TL;DR: An understanding of animal models of preterm parturition will hopefully promote continued research that will ultimately lead to a decrease in preterm birth and an improvement in neonatal outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal complications with vaginal birth after cesarean delivery: A multicenter study
George A. Macones,Jeffrey F. Peipert,Deborah B. Nelson,Anthony Odibo,Erika Stevens,David M. Stamilio,Emmanuelle Pare,Michal A. Elovitz,Anthony Sciscione,Mary D. Sammel,Sarah J. Ratcliffe +10 more
TL;DR: Women with a prior cesarean and prior vaginal delivery should be offered VBAC, and inductions requiring sequential agents be avoided, although other studies have suggested that prostaglandins should be avoided.
