Influence of FOXP3 gene polymorphisms on the risk of preeclampsia: a meta‐analysis and a bioinformatic approach

TL;DR: The rs3761548 genetic variation could be a protective factor against PE risk and may be a genetic risk factor for mild preeclampsia, and these genetic variations could be considered molecular biomarkers for PE disorder.

Assessment of All-Cause Cancer Incidence Among Individuals With Preeclampsia or Eclampsia During First Pregnancy.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the risk of cancer, overall and by type, after preeclampsia during a first pregnancy, using data from the French hospital discharge database to identify all female individuals who had a pregnancyassociated hospitalization between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2019.

Induction of labor by Foley catheter

Heidi Kruit
TL;DR: The author revealed that among the factors associated with labor induction failure were maternal characteristics and pregnancy related factors, as well as the use of Foley catheter and misoprostol, which had changed in recent years.

Factors associated with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy in sub-Saharan Africa: A systematic and meta-analysis.

TL;DR: The risk of developing HDP is worse among women who have a history of HDP, are primiparous, or have a lower maternal educational level, and interventions need to focus on increasing women’s access to education and their awareness of potential associated factors for HDP.

Predictive values of various serum biomarkers in women with suspected preeclampsia: A prospective study

TL;DR: In this article, the predictive values of the following serum biomarkers in a prospective study with the women suspected to develop preeclampsia (PE): soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFlt•1), placental growth factor (PlGF), pregnancyassociated plasma protein (PAPP•A2), glycosylated fibronectin (GlyFn), thrombomodulin (TM), tissue plasminogen activator inhibitor complex (tPAI•C), uric acid (UA), blood urea nitrogen (

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.
