Abstract The association between carcinogenesis and subsequent bleeding is established. We investigated whether postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) may be a marker of clinically unrecognized cancer in women of reproductive age. In the full population, 51 224 women comprised the PPH cohort, and 536 016 women comprised the comparison cohort.
Abstract Previous research revealed that children born from threatened abortion (TAB)-affected gestation are at 2-3 fold increased risk of autism spectrum disorders and developmental coordination disorder. In conventional cohort analysis, TAB-affected children had a 21-25% higher relative risk of epilepsy, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), in the first 16 years of life and 42% higher relative risk of cerebral palsy in the first 6 years of life.
Background Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are associated with mortality and morbidity in offspring and mothers. Use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) and angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) is contra indicated in pregnancy.
LACEi or ARBs were dispensed in pregnancies with chronic hypertension (590/735, 80.3%), preeclampsia superimposed on chronic hypertension (130/735, 17.7%), and gestational hypertension (15/735, 2.0%). The utilization of ACEi or ARBs for therapy of HDP was low, but not absent.
