Syncytiotrophoblast-Derived Extracellular Vesicles in Pathophysiology of Preeclampsia.

TL;DR: Syncytiotrophoblast-derived extracellular vesicles are increasingly recognized as a key mediator for the development of preeclampsia, but the underlying mechanisms through which these SDEVs are released and induce systemic responses are not fully understood.

Population-based trends and risk factors of early- and late-onset preeclampsia in Taiwan 2001–2014

TL;DR: The incidences of overall, and early- and late-onset preeclampsia were increasing in Taiwan from 2001 to 2014, predominantly for early-ONSet disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adverse maternal and fetal outcomes and deaths related to preeclampsia and eclampsia in Haiti.

TL;DR: The rates of preeclampsia and its associated complications, such as eClampsia, placental abruption, maternal death and stillbirth, are high at this facility in Haiti and such data are essential to developing region-specific systems to prevent preeclampia-related complications.

Preeclampsia Predicts Risk of Hospitalization for Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

TL;DR: In this article, the authors identified the risk of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction following a delivery complicated by preeclampsia/eclampsias, using International Classification of Diseases-9th Revision-Clinical Modification diagnosis codes.

Nicotine increases eclampsia-like seizure threshold and attenuates microglial activity in rat hippocampus through the α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.

TL;DR: The results revealed that nicotine effectively improved fetal outcomes and significantly decreased systolic blood pressure and maternal serum levels of Th1 cytokines, and dramatically increased eclampsia-like seizure threshold in rat hippocampus through the α7 nicotinic receptor.

An introduction to the bootstrap

TL;DR: This article presents bootstrap methods for estimation, using simple arguments, with Minitab macros for implementing these methods, as well as some examples of how these methods could be used for estimation purposes.

WHO analysis of causes of maternal death: a systematic review

TL;DR: Haemorrhage and hypertensive disorders are major contributors to maternal deaths in developing countries and these data should inform evidence-based reproductive health-care policies and programmes at regional and national levels.

Trends in maternal mortality: 1990 to 2010. WHO UNICEF UNFPA and the World Bank estimates.

TL;DR: The MDG 5 Target 5A calls for the reduction of maternal mortality ratio by three quarters between 1990 and 2015 as mentioned in this paper, which has been a challenge to assess the extent of progress due to the lack of reliable and accurate maternal mortality data.

Magnesium sulphate and other anticonvulsants for women with pre-eclampsia.

TL;DR: Magnesium sulphate more than halves the risk of eclampsia, and probably reduces maternal death, and there is no clear effect on outcome after discharge from hospital.
