Risk factors for spontaneous preterm birth are mediated through changes in cervical length - Communications Medicine Wolf et al. examine the impact of maternal risk factors on gestational duration mediated by changes in cervical length during pregnancy. Their study finds that previous preterm birth, pre-pregnancy BMI, parity, and previous abortion have unique influences on preterm birth risk through linear changes in the cervix.

A new study shows that early pregnancy relies on a two-way communication between the embryo and the mother’s uterus.

New paper 🌟✨

We found that some placentas age too early in stillbirth - linked to circular RNAs, DNA damage, and cell stress.

Crucially, these signals can show up early in pregnancy, in blood.

Small molecules, big clues!

People with disabilities need pregnancy care and support with them in mind. That's why we made the Accessible Pregnancy Action Plan (APAP). Includes image of a mother with a physical disability feeding her baby with a bottle.

Pregnant disabled people can use the APAP to talk with a peer or doctor about what matters most to them during pregnancy, labor and delivery, and postpartum. Image of two peers happily talking to each other.

Flavored e-cigarettes modulate embryo development, fetal growth, and potentiate early fetal demise without nicotine - Communications Medicine Marbrey et al. report the implications of using e-cigarettes during pregnancy on maternal and fetal health. Using a wildtype mouse model, they determine e-cigarettes can impair fetal growth and sex-specific placental gene expression while nicotine-free e-cigarettes may contribute to fetal demise.
