1. COVID-19 has a high infection rate and mortality, and serious complications such as heart injury cannot be ignored.
At present, the scale and harm of COVID 19 (Novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP) has far surpassed that of SARS in 2003, with more than 80,000 cases confirmed in China and 3,119 deaths
- In vitro fertilization (IVF) is an important tool for those couples with difficulty conceiving or maintaining a pregnancy. In the United States, infants conceived with IVF account for approximately 1.6% of live births.
- Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a highly prevalent gynecological disease,
Background of the Project including Preliminary Observations Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, including preeclampsia, complicate up to 10% of pregnancies worldwide, constituting one of the greatest causes of fetal growth restriction, preterm birth, low birth weight, perinatal mortality, and
The etiology and pathophysiology of preeclampsia have not been clearly established; impaired immunologic adaptation and genetic incompatibility seem to be involved in deficient trophoblastic implantation. Placental hypoxia and endothelial dysfunction may lead to preeclampsia through an exacerbated
Pregestational diabetes represents a high-risk for evolution of preeclampsia (PET), with rates of PET within this group at approximately 20%. The combination of diabetes and preeclampsia places the pregnancy at heightened risk for hypoxia and stillbirth. Placental dysfunction, due to disordered
Subjects with a diagnosis of chronic hypertension made prenatally or in the first 20 weeks of pregnancy (+/- medical therapy). The clinical diagnosis of preeclampsia will follow the current criteria outlined by ACOG (American College of Obstetricians & Gynecologists) 10.
Study/Project Procedures:

The key aspects in the pathophysiology of pre-eclampsia are placental oxidative stress (and hypoxia), placental release of the anti-angiogenic factors Soluble Fms Like Tyrosine Kinase -1 and soluble endoglin and maternal endothelial dysfunction. A drug that can counter these pathological steps could
Pre-eclampsia is a disorder of pregnancy characterized by hypertension (defined as systolic blood pressure ⩾140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ⩾90 mmHg) and proteinuria (300 mg or greater in a 24 h urine specimen and/or protein to creatinine ratio of > 0.30) . The disorder usually occurs after 20
Hookah (water pipe) smoking is a new global epidemic. The World Health Organization wants to prohibit all claims that hookah is less harmful than cigarettes and wants hookah products to bear the same warning labels as cigarettes. But there is little scientific evidence to substantiate this proposal.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an endogenously produced gas that play important physiological roles in the circulation. Traditionally considered a poisonous gas that causes tissue hypoxia, CO produced by vascular cells as a byproduct of heme catabolism, also functions to regulate blood flow by inhibiting
Emerging data support a link between sleep disordered breathing (SDB) and adverse pregnancy outcomes, particularly preeclampsia. Furthermore, SDB, which is characterized by intermittent nocturnal hypoxia-reoxygenation as well as sleep disruption, results in endothelial dysfunction and metabolic
The investigators are carrying out a study of 210 pregnant women , from whom 105 will have pregnancy complicated with preeclampsia and 105 with normal pregnancy.
The investigators aim is to investigate the role of the placenta, umbilical cord and amniotic membrane aquaporin expression in
This is a pragmatic, open-label, randomised control trial of two methods for labour induction among women with pre-eclampsia. Women requiring delivery for preeclampsia in two hospitals in Nagpur, India will be randomised to one of two treatment groups: transcervical Foley catheter or oral
