Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND
The immediate postpartum period is a very crucial phase for both the life of the mother and her newborn baby. Anemia is the most indirect leading cause of maternal mortality. However, anemia in the immediate postpartum period is a neglected public health problem in Ethiopia. Therefore, this systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to estimate the pooled magnitude of immediate postpartum anemia and the pooled effect size of associated factors in Ethiopia.
METHODS
Searching of published studies done through PubMed, Medline, Cochrane, African index Medicus, List of Reference Index, Hinari, and Google Scholar. This systematic review and meta-analysis follow the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) godliness. The quality of studies was assessed by using a Newcastle- Ottawa Scale (NOS) assessment tool. Analysis was performed using a random effect model by using STATA 17 version software. Egger's weighted regression and I test were used to evaluate publication bias and heterogeneity respectively.
RESULTS
In this systematic review and meta-analysis, a total of 6 studies were included. The pooled magnitude of immediate postpartum anemia in Ethiopia was 27% (95%CI: 22, 32). Instrumental mode of delivery (OR = 3.14, 95%CI: 2.03, 4.24), mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) measurement < 23 cm (OR = 3.19, 95%CI: 1.35, 5.03), Antepartum Hemorrhage (OR = 4.75, 95%CI: 2.46, 7.03), postpartum hemorrhage (OR = 4.67, 95%CI: 2.80, 6.55), and no iron/foliate supplementation (OR = 2.72, 95%CI: 1.85, 3.60) were the identified factors associated with developing anemia in the immediate postpartum period.
CONCLUSION
The overall pooled magnitude of anemia in the immediate postpartum period among Ethiopian women was still a moderate public health problem. Instrumental mode of delivery, mid upper arm circumference (MUAC) measurement < 23 cm, antepartum hemorrhage, postpartum hemorrhage, and no iron/foliate supplementation were the identified factors associated with higher odds of developing anemia among immediate postpartum women in Ethiopia. Therefore, midwives, and doctors, shall focus on prevention of maternal hemorrhage, nutritional advice and counseling including iron /foliate supplementation, and avoid unnecessary instrumental delivery to prevent and reduce anemia related maternal mortality and morbidity in Ethiopia.

BACKGROUND
Pharmacological prophylaxis to prevent venous thromboembolism is currently recommended for women assessed as being at high risk of venous thromboembolism during pregnancy or in the 6 weeks after delivery (the puerperium). The decision to provide thromboprophylaxis involves weighing the benefits, harms and costs, which vary according to the individual's venous thromboembolism risk. It is unclear whether the United Kingdom's current risk stratification approach could be improved by further research.
OBJECTIVES
To quantify the current decision uncertainty associated with selecting women who are pregnant or in the puerperium for thromboprophylaxis and to estimate the value of one or more potential future studies that would reduce that uncertainty, while being feasible and acceptable to patients and clinicians.
METHODS
A decision-analytic model was developed which was informed by a systematic review of risk assessment models to predict venous thromboembolism in women who are pregnant or in the puerperium. Expected value of perfect information analysis was used to determine which factors are associated with high decision uncertainty and should be the target of future research. To find out whether future studies would be acceptable and feasible, we held workshops with women who have experienced a blood clot or have been offered blood-thinning drugs and surveyed healthcare professionals. Expected value of sample information analysis was used to estimate the value of potential future research studies.
RESULTS
The systematic review included 17 studies, comprising 19 unique externally validated risk assessment models and 1 internally validated model. Estimates of sensitivity and specificity were highly variable ranging from 0% to 100% and 5% to 100%, respectively. Most studies had unclear or high risk of bias and applicability concerns. The decision analysis found that there is substantial decision uncertainty regarding the use of risk assessment models to select high-risk women for antepartum prophylaxis and obese postpartum women for postpartum prophylaxis. The main source of decision uncertainty was uncertainty around the effectiveness of thromboprophylaxis for preventing venous thromboembolism in women who are pregnant or in the puerperium. We found that a randomised controlled trial of thromboprophylaxis in obese postpartum women is likely to have substantial value and is more likely to be acceptable and feasible than a trial recruiting women who have had a previous venous thromboembolism. In unselected postpartum women and women following caesarean section, the poor performance of risk assessment models meant that offering prophylaxis based on these models had less favourable cost effectiveness with lower decision uncertainty.
LIMITATIONS
The performance of the risk assessment model for obese postpartum women has not been externally validated.
CONCLUSIONS
Future research should focus on estimating the efficacy of pharmacological thromboprophylaxis in pregnancy and the puerperium, and clinical trials would be more acceptable in women who have not had a previous venous thromboembolism.

Meta-Analysis Review
The epidemiological landscape of infantile hemangioma (IH) has been extensively explored through diverse data sources; however, a scarcity of systematically pooled and quantified evidence from comprehensive global studies persists. In this meta-analysis, we systematically review available literature to elucidate the prevalence, distribution of lesions, complications, and risk factors associated with IH. A meticulous search encompassing the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science identified 3206 records, of which 55 studies met the inclusion criteria. We found that the overall prevalence of IH is 2.8% [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.5-4.4%] (31,274,396 infants), and IH was located more frequently in the head and neck with a prevalence of 47.4% (95% CI: 39.5-55.4%). The overall prevalence of complications of IH is 24.3% (95% CI: 18.6-30.5%), ulceration is 16.0% (95% CI: 10.4-21.2%), bleeding is 5.6% (95% CI: 3.3-8.5%), visual impairment is 5.6% (95% CI: 3.0-8.9%), infection is 2.8% (95% CI: 1.5-4.8%), subglottic obstruction is 1.5% (95% CI: 0.5-3.0%), respectively. Through 27 studies, we have evaluated 35 factors encompassing perinatal factors, socioeconomic factors, maternal complications, drug factors, and antepartum procedures, and identified 18 risk factors that increase the prevalence of IH. These findings can greatly assist clinicians and family members in effectively evaluating the risk of IH, and determining whether pregnant women should undergo intensified monitoring or preventive measures.

Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND
Globally, more than 2.6 million stillbirths occur each year. The vast majority (98%) of stillbirths occur in low- and middle-income countries, and over fifty percent (55%) of these happen in rural sub-Saharan Africa.
METHODS
This is a systematic review and meta-analysis developed using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses guidelines. A literature search was performed using PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, EMBASE, Scopus, the Web of Sciences, and gray literature. Rayyan`s software was used for literature screening. A random effects meta-analysis was conducted with STATA version 17. Heterogeneity was checked by using Cochran's Q and I2 tests. Funnel plots and Egger's test were used to examine the risk of publication bias. The protocol of the study was registered in PROSPERO with a registration number of CRD42023391874.
RESULTS
Forty-one studies gathered from eight sub-Saharan countries with a total of 192,916 sample sizes were included. Nine variables were highly linked with stillbirth. These include advanced maternal age (aOR: 1.43, 95% CI: 1.16, 1.70), high educational attainment (aOR: 0.55, 95% CI: 0.47, 0.63), antenatal care (aOR: 0.45, 95% CI: 0.35, 0.55), antepartum hemorrhage (aOR: 2.70, 95% CI: 1.91, 3.50), low birth weight (aOR: 1.72, 95% CI: 1.56-1.87), admission by referral (aOR: 1.55, 95% CI: 1.41, 1.68), history of stillbirth (aOR: 2.43, 95% CI: 1.84, 3.03), anemia (aOR: 2.62, 95% CI: 1.93, 3.31), and hypertension (aOR: 2.22, 95% CI: 1.70, 2.75).
CONCLUSION
A significant association was found between stillbirth and maternal age, educational status, antenatal care, antepartum hemorrhage, birth weight, mode of arrival, history of previous stillbirth, anemia, and hypertension. Integrating maternal health and obstetric factors will help identify the risk factors as early as possible and provide early interventions.

Meta-Analysis Review
INTRODUCTION
Women with a prior stillbirth or a history of recurrent first trimester miscarriages are at increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. However, little is known about the impact of a second trimester pregnancy loss on subsequent pregnancy outcome. This review investigated if second trimester miscarriage or termination for medical reason or fetal anomaly (TFMR/TOPFA) is associated with future adverse pregnancy outcomes.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
A systematic review of observational studies was conducted. Eligible studies included women with a history of a second trimester miscarriage or termination for medical reasons and their pregnancy outcomes in the subsequent pregnancy. Where comparative studies were identified, studies which compared subsequent pregnancy outcomes for women with and without a history of second trimester loss or TFMR/TOPFA were included. The primary outcome was livebirth, and secondary outcomes included: miscarriage (first and second trimester), termination of pregnancy, fetal growth restriction, cesarean section, preterm birth, pre-eclampsia, antepartum hemorrhage, stillbirth and neonatal death. Studies were excluded if exposure was nonmedical termination or if related to twins or higher multiple pregnancies. Electronic searches were conducted using the online databases (MEDLINE, Embase, PubMed and The Cochrane Library) and searches were last updated on June 16, 2023. Risk of bias was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. Where possible, meta-analysis was undertaken. PROSPERO registration: CRD42023375033.
RESULTS
Ten studies were included, reporting on 12 004 subsequent pregnancies after a second trimester pregnancy miscarriage. No studies were found on outcomes after second trimester TFMR/TOPFA. Overall, available data were of "very low quality" using GRADE assessment. Meta-analysis of cohort studies generated estimated outcome frequencies for women with a previous second trimester loss as follows: live birth 81% (95% CI: 64-94), miscarriage 15% (95% CI: 4-30, preterm birth 13% [95% CI: 6-23]).The pooled odds ratio for preterm birth in subsequent pregnancy after second trimester loss in case-control studies was OR 4.52 (95% CI: 3.03-6.74).
CONCLUSIONS
Very low certainty evidence suggests there may be an increased risk of preterm birth in a subsequent pregnancy after a late miscarriage. However, evidence is limited. Larger, higher quality cohort studies are needed to investigate this potential association.

Meta-Analysis Review
INTRODUCTION
Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness that affects a significant proportion of the global population, particularly those of childbearing age. Several studies have attempted to find an association between schizophrenia and obstetric complications, with varying results.
OBJECTIVE
The primary objective of this systematic review and meta-analyses was to summarize the relationship between maternal schizophrenia and perinatal pregnancy outcomes.
DATA SOURCES
PubMed, Web of Science and Ovid EMBASE were searched from January 2001 to September 2022 using keywords related to pregnancy, women, schizophrenia.
STUDY SELECTION
A total of 23 independent studies across 21,253 individuals with schizophrenia were identified and included in the analysis.
DATA EXTRACTION
The following data were extracted: author, year of publication, country/continent of data collection, study design, demographic characteristics, diagnoses criteria, related complications. Data were analyzed using random-effects pairwise meta-analysis and were reported as prevalence and odd ratios (OR). Statistical heterogeneity was quantified with the I statistic.
RESULTS
The prevalence of adverse perinatal pregnancy outcomes was represented in descending order: cesarean section (26.0 %); labor induction (24.0 %); small for gestational age (10.5 %); gestational diabetes mellitus (9.2 %); preterm birth (9.1 %); low birth weight (7.8 %); preterm rupture of membranes (6.1 %); 1-Minute Apgar Score < 7 (5.6 %); large for gestational age (5.5 %); birth defect (5.4 %); antepartum hemorrhage (4.4 %);preeclampsia/eclampsia (4.8 %); postpartum hemorrhage (3.9 %); 5-Minute Apgar Score < 7 (3.6 %); gestational hypertension (3.3 %); placental abruption (1.0 %); placenta previa (0.6 %); thromboembolic disease (0.4 %); neonatal mortality (0.3 %) (P ≤ 0.05). There was a higher risk of adverse outcomes including gestational diabetes mellitus, preeclampsia/eclampsia, placental abruption, thromboembolic disease, preterm birth, birth defect, 1-Minute Apgar score < 7, small for gestational age, low birth weight and neonatal mortality compared with non-schizophrenia population (P ≤ 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Women with schizophrenia are at higher risk of adverse perinatal pregnancy outcomes. It is imperative that research efforts continue to focus on the reproductive safety of women with schizophrenia during their childbearing years.

Meta-Analysis Review
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to investigate the potential role of aspirin in reducing the risk of preeclampsia and adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes in twin pregnancies.
DATA SOURCES
Medline, Embase, Google Scholar, Cochrane, and ClinicalTrial.gov databases were searched.
STUDY ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
The search and selection criteria were restricted to the English language.
METHODS
The primary outcome was the incidence of preeclampsia. The secondary outcomes included gestational hypertension; fetal growth restriction; preterm birth, either spontaneous or iatrogenic, before 34 weeks of gestation; gestational age at birth; neonatal birthweight; and adverse events secondary to the administration of aspirin, including antepartum and postpartum hemorrhage. In addition, subgroup analyses according to chorionicity (dichorionic vs monochorionic), aspirin dose, and gestational age at administration of aspirin (<16 vs ≥16 weeks of gestation) and considering only studies with a daily aspirin dose of ≥100 mg/d were performed. Head-to-head meta-analyses reporting results as summary odds ratios and mean differences were used to analyze categorical and continuous variables, respectively. Quality assessment for randomized controlled trials was independently performed by 2 researchers based on the risk of bias that was assessed using the revised Cochrane risk-of-bias tool for randomized trials. The conclusion of the meta-analysis on the primary outcome was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation.
RESULTS
Overall, 9 studies (2273 twin pregnancies) were included. When considering all studies, the risk of preeclampsia was lower in twin pregnancies treated with aspirin than in those not treated with aspirin (odds ratio, 0.64; 95% confidence interval, 0.48-0.85; P=.003), although there was no significant difference in the risk of gestational hypertension (P=.987), fetal growth restriction (P=.9), or adverse maternal and perinatal events (P=.9) in twin pregnancies treated with aspirin compared with those not treated with aspirin. There was no significant difference in the gestational age at birth (P=.2) and neonatal birthweight (P=.06) between women receiving aspirin and those not receiving aspirin. When considering only studies with an aspirin dose of >100 mg/d, the risk of preeclampsia (odds ratio, 0.45; 95% confidence interval, 0.23-0.86; P=.02) was significantly lower in pregnancies receiving aspirin than in those not receiving aspirin, Conversely, there was no significant difference in the risk of gestational hypertension (P=.20), fetal growth restriction (P=.1), gestational age at birth (P=.06), and neonatal weight (P=.05) between the 2 groups. Furthermore, there was no significant difference in the risk of preeclampsia when considering only studies with an aspirin dose of >80 mg/d (P=.611). The association between the administration of aspirin and preeclampsia persisted when considering an aspirin dose of >100 mg/day or when the medication was started before 16 weeks of gestation. The overall quality of evidence using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation assessment was low.
CONCLUSION
The administration of aspirin in women with twin pregnancies reduced the risk of preeclampsia. The findings from this study highlighted the need for randomized controlled trials elucidating the actual role of aspirin in affecting maternal and perinatal outcomes in twin pregnancies.

OBJECTIVES
To assess the comparative accuracy of risk assessment models (RAMs) to identify women during pregnancy and the early postnatal period who are at increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE).
DESIGN
Systematic review following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines.
DATA SOURCES
MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library and two research registers were searched until February 2021.
ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
All validation studies that examined the accuracy of a multivariable RAM (or scoring system) for predicting the risk of developing VTE in women who are pregnant or in the puerperium (within 6 weeks post-delivery).
DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS
Two authors independently selected and extracted data. Risk of bias was appraised using PROBAST (Prediction model Risk Of Bias ASsessment Tool). Data were synthesised without meta-analysis.
RESULTS
Seventeen studies, comprising 19 externally validated RAMs and 1 internally validated model, met the inclusion criteria. The most widely evaluated RAMs were the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists guidelines (six studies), American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists guidelines (two studies), Swedish Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology guidelines (two studies) and the Lyon score (two studies). In general, estimates of sensitivity and specificity were highly variable with sensitivity estimates ranging from 0% to 100% for RAMs that were applied to antepartum women to predict antepartum or postpartum VTE and 0% to 100% for RAMs applied postpartum to predict postpartum VTE. Specificity estimates were similarly diverse ranging from 28% to 98% and 5% to 100%, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS
Available data suggest that external validation studies have weak designs and limited generalisability, so estimates of prognostic accuracy are very uncertain.

Meta-Analysis
OBJECTIVE
To date, evidence regarding the effectiveness and safety of two consecutive cycles of single embryo transfer (2SETs) compared with one cycle of double embryo transfer (DET) has been inadequate, particularly considering infertile women with different prognostic factors. This study aimed to comprehensively summarize the evidence by comparing 2SETs with DET.
METHODS
PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library databases, ClinicalTrails.gov, and the WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform were searched up to March 22, 2022. Peer-reviewed, English-language randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies (OS) comparing the outcomes of 2SETs with DET in infertile women with their own oocytes and embryos were included. Two authors independently conducted study selection, data extraction, and bias assessment. The Mantel-Haenszel random-effects model was used for pooling RCTs, and a Bayesian design-adjusted model was conducted to synthesize the results from both RCTs and OS.
MAIN RESULTS
Twelve studies were finally included. Compared with the DET, 2SETs were associated with a similar cumulative live birth rate (LBR; 48.24% vs. 48.91%; OR, 0.97; 95% credible interval (CrI), 0.89-1.13, τ 0.1796; four RCTs and six observational studies; 197,968 women) and a notable lower cumulative multiple birth rate (MBR; 0.87% vs. 17.72%; OR, 0.05; 95% CrI, 0.02-0.10, τ 0.1036; four RCTs and five observational studies; 197,804 women). Subgroup analyses revealed a significant increase in cumulative LBR (OR, 1.33; 95% CrI, 1.29-1.38, τ 0) after two consecutive cycles of single blastocyst transfer compared with one cycle of double blastocyst transfer. Moreover, a lower risk of cesarean section, antepartum hemorrhage, preterm birth, low birth weight, and neonatal intensive care unit admission but a higher gestational age at birth and birth weight were found in the 2SETs group.
CONCLUSION
Compared to the DET strategy, 2SETs result in a similar LBR while simultaneously reducing the MBR and improving maternal and neonatal adverse outcomes. The 2SETs strategy appears to be especially beneficial for women aged ≤35 years and for blastocyst transfers.

Review
Exploration of novel biomarkers has been gaining popularity in preeclampsia, which is currently being diagnosed based on clinical criteria alone. Soluble syndecan-1, released from one of the proteoglycans associated with the syncytiotrophoblastic layer of the placenta, is affected in patients with abnormal placentation. This article is the first systematic literature review that evaluates the relationship between the antepartum serum levels of the syndecan-1 and preeclampsia. Eight studies were selected after screening and quality appraisal, and data were analyzed. The serum concentration of syndecan-1 was found to correlate positively with the gestational age in all pregnancies and negatively with the systolic blood pressure in patients with preeclampsia. Extremely low levels of soluble syndecan-1 may be helpful as a predictor for the development of preeclampsia during gestation.
