Abstract
OBJECTIVES Diabetes distress (DD) has been understudied in the pregnancy population. Pregnancy is known to be a complex, highly stressful time for women with diabetes because of medical risks and the high burden of diabetes management. Our aim in this study was to explain and understand DD in women with pre-existing diabetes in pregnancy. METHODS An explanatory, sequential mixed-methods study was undertaken. The first strand consisted of a cross-sectional study of 76 women with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. A nested sampling approach was used to re-recruit 18 women back into the second strand for qualitative interviews using an interpretive description approach. RESULTS DD was measured by the validated Problem Area in Diabetes (PAID) scale. A PAID score of ≥40 was positive for distress. DD prevalence was 22.4% in the cross-sectional cohort and the average PAID score was 27.75 (standard deviation 16.08). In the qualitative strand, women with a range of PAID scores (10.0 to 60.0) were sampled for interviews. The majority of these participants described themes of DD in their interviews. Of the 15 women who described DD thematically, only 6 had positive PAID scores. CONCLUSIONS Integration of the mixed-methods data underscores important meta-inferences about DD in pregnancy, namely that DD was present to a greater degree than the PAID tool is sensitive to. DD was present qualitatively in most of the qualitative sample, despite interviewing women with a range of PAID scores. Future research on a pregnancy-specific DD scale is needed.

Abstract
Previous systematic reviews have reported on the relationship between eating disorders (EDs) and birth outcomes, but there are no existing meta-analyses on this topic. This systematic review and meta-analysis examines the association between lifetime maternal EDs, including anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN), and binge-eating disorder (BED) with low birth weight (LBW), preterm birth (PTB), small for gestational age (SGA), large for gestational age (LGA), and miscarriage. Four databases were systematically searched for quantitative literature on maternal EDs that preceded birth outcomes. Eighteen studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the review. The meta-analyses included 6 studies on miscarriage, 11 on PTB, 4 on LBW, 9 on SGA, and 4 on LGA. The Mantel-Haenszel random effects model was used to test the associations between EDs and birth outcomes. The results showed significant positive associations between AN and LBW (OR 1.74, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.49, 2.03), AN and SGA (OR 1.39, 95% CI 1.17, 1.65), BN and PTB (OR 1.19, 95% CI 1.04, 1.36), and BED and LGA (OR 1.43 95% CI 1.18, 1.72). EDs were not significantly correlated with miscarriage. These findings reveal the importance of screening for and treating EDs in pregnant women.

Abstract
Olo nutritional follow-up care offers vulnerable pregnant women food vouchers, multivitamin supplements, tools, and nutritional counselling to support healthy pregnancy outcomes.Purpose: To evaluate the contribution of Olo follow-up care to nutritional intakes and eating practices, as well as to assess the programme-related experience of participants.Methods: Participants (n = 30) responded to questionnaires and web-based 24-hour dietary recalls and participated in a semi-structured interview (n = 10).Results: Olo follow-up care reduced the proportion of participants below the recommended intake for groups for many micronutrients, with the greatest reduction for folate (by 96.7%), vitamin D (by 93.3%), iron (by 70.0%), calcium (by 50.0%), and zinc (by 30.0%), mainly due to the prenatal multivitamin supplements. Most participants (96.7%) did not follow Olo's typical recommendations but, if they had, hypothetically they would have consumed an average of 746 additional calories per day and be above the recommendations for excessive intakes of folic acid and iron (100% and 33.3%, respectively). More than half of the participants were moderately to severely food insecure. Olo contributed to reducing the impact of isolation and increased food accessibility and budget flexibility among participants.Conclusion: Olo follow-up care helped reduce the proportion of women below the recommended intake for micronutrients, but revising the food offered and strategies to address food insecurity may be necessary.

Abstract
Endometriosis does not always mean infertility, and treatment depends on the couple's prognosis and their wishes. Spontaneous pregnancy remains possible, all the more so if endometriosis treatment is initiated early in the patient's life. Surgery and assisted reproduction are available to couples who wish to have a child.

Abstract
Maternal diet during pregnancy can have a significant impact on maternal and offspring health. As nutrition counselling is an important component of prenatal care, registered dietitians (RDs) are uniquely trained professionals who can provide personalized nutrition counselling customized to an individual's sociocultural needs. The objective of this systematic review was to determine if RD involvement during pregnancy is associated with a lower prevalence of adverse birth outcomes in the United States and Canada. The review was conducted through a search of four databases: PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, and Web of Science. A total of 14 studies were identified. Women had a lower prevalence of low birth weight and preterm infants when RDs were involved during prenatal care. While RD involvement during pregnancy was not associated with macrosomia, more research is needed to assess its relationship with small for gestational age, large for gestational age, and infant mortality. Future research should also investigate the specific dietary advice provided by RDs and the extent and timing of their involvement throughout pregnancy to better understand the mechanisms surrounding nutrition counselling, in utero development, and health outcomes.

Abstract
From the earliest stages of adolescence, the question of alcohol consumption should be addressed by health professionals (GPs, midwives, gynecologists, pediatricians, nurses) working in the field of perinatal care or public health. All alcohol consumption is prohibited during pregnancy. In fact, a 2022 study showed that even low exposure to alcohol in utero has measurable effects on the structure of children's brains.

Abstract
OBJECTIF Présenter aux professionnels de la santé les données probantes concernant l'utilisation des opioïdes et la santé des femmes. Les domaines d'intérêt sont la grossesse et les soins post-partum. POPULATION CIBLE Toutes les femmes qui utilisent des opioïdes. RéSULTATS: Un dialogue ouvert et éclairé sur l'utilisation des opioïdes améliorera les soins aux patientes. BéNéFICES, RISQUES ET COûTS: L'exploration de l'utilisation d'opioïdes par une approche tenant compte des traumatismes antérieurs donne au professionnel de la santé et à la patiente l'occasion de bâtir une alliance solide, collaborative et thérapeutique. Cette alliance permet aux femmes de faire des choix éclairés. Elle favorise le diagnostic et le traitement possible du trouble lié à l'utilisation d'opioïdes. L'utilisation ne doit pas être stigmatisée, puisque la stigmatisation affaiblit le partenariat (le partenariat entre patiente et professionnel de la santé). Les professionnels de la santé ceus-ci doivent comprendre l'effet potentiel des opioïdes sur la santé les femmes enceintes et les aider à prendre des décisions éclairées sur leur santé. DONNéES PROBANTES: Une recherche a été conçue puis effectuée dans les bases de données PubMed et Cochrane Library pour la période d'août 2018 à mars 2023 des termes MeSH et mots clés suivants (et variantes) : opioids, opioid agonist therapy, illicit drugs, fertility, pregnancy, fetal development, neonatal abstinence syndrome et breastfeeding.

Abstract
The infant mortality rate (children under five) in Palestine is 21 deaths per 1,000 live births. Palestine has thus successfully reached the threshold set by the Millennium Development Goals for child mortality. However, this rate is higher than in neighboring countries. This indicator is extremely important as it is a highly sensitive indirect measure of population health, poverty and socio-economic development status, as well as the availability and quality of health services in a country. These are all factors that still present challenges in Palestine.

Abstract
Although the 2022 Monkeypox virus epidemic mostly affects males, particularly men having sex with men, transmission to women may also occur. In case of MPXV infection in pregnancy, transmission to the fetus can result in very severe disease. Thus, caregivers should be aware of the measures to be taken according to the available evidence, in case of exposure or in case of symptoms particularly skin rash compatible with this diagnosis in a pregnant woman. Pregnant women should have access to vaccination, vaccinia immunoglobulin or antiviral medications as required.

Abstract
Nancy Suchman's work highlighted the fundamental role of maternal mentalization in maternal addiction, mental health, and caregiving challenges. In this study, we aimed to examine the role of mental-state language (MSL) as a measure of mentalization in prenatal and postnatal narratives and their sentiment in a sample of 91 primarily White mothers from the western United States, followed from the second trimester of pregnancy, through the third trimester, to 4 months postpartum. Specifically, we investigated the use of affective and cognitive MSL in prenatal narratives when mothers visualized caring for their baby and postnatal narratives when mothers compared their prenatal visualization to the current caregiving reality. Results indicated moderate consistency in MSL between the second and third trimesters, but prenatal and postnatal MSL was not significantly correlated. Across all time points, higher use of MSL was related to more positive sentiment, indicating an association between mentalization and positive caregiving representations across the perinatal period. Women used more affective than cognitive MSL in prenatal imagination of caregiving, but this pattern was reversed in their postpartum reflection. Implications on assessing parental mentalization prenatally and considering the relative dominance of affective and cognitive mentalizing are discussed while considering study limitations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES For women with pre-existing and gestational diabetes, pregnancy involves specialized and intensive medical care to optimize maternal and infant outcomes. Medical management for patients with diabetes in pregnancy typically occurs via frequent face-to-face outpatient appointments. COVID-19-induced barriers to face-to-face care have identified the need for high-quality, patient-centred virtual health-care modalities, such as mobile health (mHealth) technologies. Our aim in this review was to identify the patient-reported benefits and limitations of mHealth technologies among women with diabetes in pregnancy. We also aimed to determine how the women's experiences aligned with the best practice standards for patient-centred communication. METHODS The framework presented by Arksey and O'Malley for conducting scoping reviews, with refinements by Levac et al, was used to guide this review. Relevant studies were identified through comprehensive database searches of MEDLINE, Embase, Emcare and PsycINFO. Thomas and Harden's methods for the thematic synthesis of qualitative research in systematic reviews guided the synthesis of patient-reported benefits and limitations of mHealth technology. RESULTS Overall, 19 studies describing the use of 16 unique mHealth technologies among 742 women were included in the final review. Patient-reported benefits of mHealth included convenience, support of psychosocial well-being and facilitation of diabetes self-management. Patient-reported limitations included lack of important technological features, perceived burdensome aspects of mHealth and lack of trust in virtual health care. CONCLUSIONS Women with diabetes report some benefits from mHealth use during pregnancy. Codesigning future technologies with end users may help address the perceived limitations and effectiveness of mHealth technologies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our aim in this study was to assess the association between folic acid (FA) supplementation before and during pregnancy and risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in Chinese women. METHODS This case-control study was conducted at 2 hospitals in central China. A total of 1,300 pregnant women, including 396 GDM patients and 904 controls, participated in the study. Information on the dose and duration of FA supplementation was collected using a self-report questionnaire at enrolment (24 to 28 weeks of gestation). RESULTS We observed a U-shaped association between FA supplementation and GDM risk that demonstrated a 228% increased risk of GDM among women who never took FA supplements, a 28% increased risk among women who took supplements containing <400 μg/day FA or took FA supplements for <1 month and a 188% increased risk among women who took supplements containing ≥800 μg/day FA for an adequate duration (>1 month before pregnancy and >3 months during pregnancy) compared with women who took supplements containing 400 to 799 μg/day FA for an adequate duration (all p<0.05). For women who took supplements containing ≥800 μg/day FA for an adequate duration, the association between FA supplementation and GDM risk appeared to be stronger among those women with a prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) of ≥25 kg/m2 than among those with a prepregnancy BMI of <25 kg/m2 (p=0.006 for interaction). CONCLUSIONS There was a U-shaped association of FA supplementation with GDM risk; that is, FA supplementation both below and above the recommended levels may increase the risk of GDM.

Abstract
Teenage pregnancy remains a major public health problem worldwide. They present somatic, psychological, developmental and socioeconomic risks and consequences for adolescents and their unborn children. A review of the international scientific literature exploring the psychosocial factors of vulnerability at each stage of pregnancy shows that sustainable, multidisciplinary and culturally appropriate support is necessary.

Abstract
The Covid-19 health crisis has raised many questions about pregnancy care, the experience of confinement measures, and the increase in inequalities in access to care according to migratory status. The situation of a young French-Malian mother raises questions about the experience of motherhood in this particular pandemic context. In particular, questions are raised about the socio-cultural representations of care and illness.

Abstract
To understand the role of experience in parenting beliefs about caring for infants, we examined the parenting beliefs of pregnant women who were expecting their first child with those of pregnant women who already had at least one other child. A culturally diverse sample of 550 British and Italian women completed self-report measures evaluating their beliefs about the value of attunement and structure in caregiving, parenting self-efficacy, and home chaos. Psychometric evaluation confirmed the two-factor structure of the Baby Care Questionnaire (BCQ) for measuring attunement and structure but did not support configural invariance across the different samples. Beliefs about attunement and structure were related to parenting experience: pregnant women who already had at least one other child reported stronger beliefs in attunement, whereas pregnant women expecting their first child reported stronger beliefs in structure. Regression analyses revealed that the associations between parenting beliefs and experience remained when controlling for country, age, and education. Despite the limitations imposed by the lack of configural invariance, this cross-sectional, cross-cultural study constitutes an important first step in examining the relations between parenting experience and parenting beliefs during pregnancy.

Abstract
The incidence and prevalence of hypothyroidism in pregnancy have increased over the past two decades, leading to the occurrence of neuropsychiatric disorders. However, the underlying mechanisms of thyroid hormone (TH)-regulated gene expression and neuropsychiatric development during the postnatal period remain unknown. Recent achievements have shown that reelin, a large extracellular glycoprotein, plays a crucial role in neuronal migration and localization during the development of neocortex and cerebellar cortex, thereby participating in the development of neuropsychiatric diseases. Reelin-induced neuronal migration requires triiodothyronine (T3) from the deiodination of thyroxine (T4) by fetal brain deiodinases. Previous studies have reported decreased reelin levels and abnormal gene expression, which are the same as the pathological alternations in reelin-induced neuropsychiatric disorders including schizophrenia and autism. Low T3 in the fetal brain due to hypothyroxinemia during pregnancy may be detrimental to neuronal migration, leading to neuropsychiatric disorders. In this review, we focus on the reelin expression between hypothyroidism and neuropsychiatric disorders.

Abstract
Contexte L'année 2020 a été marquée par la pandémie du SARS-CoV2 dont les mesures de gestion ont fortement perturbé l'organisation de la société en général et particulièrement l'organisation du système de soins. Cette étude avait pour objectif d'analyser l’évolution des indicateurs des interruptions volontaires de grossesse (IVG) dans la région parisienne au cours de l'année 2020 et d'analyser particulièrement ce qui a changé au cours du premier confinement. Méthode Les données issues du Système national des données de santé (SNDS) ont été analysées pour comparer les indicateurs de 2020 à ceux de 2016–2019. En 2020, les indicateurs ont été étudiés mensuellement. L’âge des femmes, la méthode utilisée pour interrompre la grossesse, le terme de la grossesse au moment de l'IVG et le département de résidence de la femme ont été analysés. Résultats Après cinq années consécutives d'augmentation du taux de recours à l'IVG, l'année 2020 a été marquée par un recul du nombre d'IVG (50 615), soit une baisse de 5,6 % par rapport à 2019 (53 601). Le taux de recours est passé de 17,3 IVG/1000 femmes de 15–49 ans en 2019 à 16,3 ‰ en 2020. Ce recul a été observé dans les quatre semaines ayant suivi le premier confinement. Il concernait plus particulièrement les IVG réalisées à l'hôpital et les IVG des femmes jeunes (< 25 ans). En 2020, les proportions des IVG médicamenteuses et des IVG instrumentales sous anesthésie locale ont augmenté comparativement aux quatre années précédant la crise sanitaire. Par ailleurs, on a dénombré moins d'IVG tardives en 2020 (IVG sur grossesse > 12 semaines d'aménorrhée). Cette analyse met également en évidence une baisse du nombre de naissances dans les huit à neuf mois ayant suivi le premier confinement. Discussion et conclusion La crise liée à la COVID-19 a entraîné d'autres conséquences sanitaires non imputables directement au virus. En termes de reproduction, la crise sanitaire, particulièrement le premier confinement, est associée à un recul des conceptions se traduisant par une baisse du nombre de grossesses, qu'elles soient désirées ou non, avec comme conséquence une baisse de recours à l'IVG dans les semaines suivant le premier confinement et un recul de la natalité dans les neuf mois suivants.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine if rating of perceived exertion (RPE) during non-weight-bearing exercise is influenced by gestational age and exercise training. We conducted a randomized controlled trial to examine the influence of gestational age and exercise training (three to four times per week for 25-40 minutes at 50%-70% of heart rate reserve) on RPE during an exhaustive cycling exercise test. We observed no influence of gestational age, or exercise training status on RPE responses to non-weight-bearing exercise during pregnancy. Trial registration number: NCT02948439. Novelty: Gestational age and/or exercise training does not influence rate of perceived exertion during non-weight-bearing exercise.

Abstract
OBJECTIF Offrir des recommandations à jour sur l'utilisation de multivitamines et de suppléments d'acide folique avant la conception pour la prévention primaire et secondaire (récidive) des anomalies du tube neural et des autres anomalies congénitales sensibles à l'acide folique. POPULATION CIBLE Les femmes de 12 à 45 ans qui pourraient devenir enceintes doivent être informées des risques importants d'anomalies congénitales en l'absence d'une supplémentation adéquate en acide folique avant la conception et pendant le premier trimestre. OPTIONS La supplémentation optimale en acide folique est complexe et repose sur divers facteurs tels que la dose, le type de suppléments, la biodisponibilité du folate dans l'alimentation, le moment du début de la supplémentation ainsi que sur les facteurs métaboliques et génétiques. Pour toutes les femmes qui peuvent devenir enceintes, une faible dose quotidienne d'acide folique est recommandée avant la conception et pendant la grossesse et l'allaitement. La supplémentation à forte dose d'acide folique est recommandée uniquement chez les femmes qui peuvent devenir enceintes et qui ont un antécédent de grossesse avec anomalie du tube neural ou toute autre anomalie congénitale sensible à l'acide folique. Il est possible d'envisager et d'adopter une approche personnalisée chez les femmes qui peuvent devenir enceintes et qui présentent des risques complexes (facteurs de risque génétiques, médicaux ou chirurgicaux) en se fondant sur les nouvelles connaissances en matière de métabolisme et synergie des cofacteurs et sur l'analyse du taux sérique et érythrocytaire d'acide folique. Ce genre d'approche exige une modification des protocoles provinciaux actuels de santé publique concernant le dépistage et l'analyse du taux sérique maternel d'acide folique. RéSULTATS: Les nouvelles stratégies de supplémentation en acide folique par voie orale, y compris dans les outils de triage, doivent être prises en compte pour diminuer de façon optimale le risque d'anomalies du tube neural et d'anomalies congénitales sensibles à l'acide folique. BéNéFICES, RISQUES ET COûTS: On observe une diminution du taux d'anomalies du tube neural, des autres anomalies congénitales sensibles à l'acide folique et des complications obstétricales chez les femmes qui prennent des suppléments oraux d'acide folique ou qui complémentent leur apport alimentaire en folate au moyen de multivitamines ou de suppléments de micronutriments. Les coûts relatifs sont liés à la prise quotidienne de suppléments vitaminiques et à l'adoption d'un régime alimentaire sain et riche en folate. DONNéES PROBANTES: Une recherche a été effectuée dans les bases de données PubMed et Cochrane Library pour trouver des articles publiés entre 1990 et 2021, en utilisant les termes MeSH et mots-clés (et leurs variantes) suivants : folate food fortification; primary neural tube defect prevention; prevention of recurrence of neural tube defects; folate-sensitive birth defects; folate supplementation benefit; folate supplementation risk; folate pregnant woman physiology; pregnant woman RBC folate level; pregnant woman serum folate levels; folate and epilepsy; folate and obesity. Cette directive clinique repose sur des lignes directrices et opinions de spécialistes, des revues systématiques, des essais cliniques randomisés et des études observationnelles de cas-témoin et de séries de cas qui ont été publiés en anglais entre 1990 et 2021. MéTHODES DE VALIDATION: Les auteurs ont évalué la qualité des données probantes et la force des recommandations en utilisant le cadre méthodologique GRADE (Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation). Voir l'annexe A en ligne (tableau A1 pour les définitions et tableau A2 pour l'interprétation des recommandations fortes et faibles). PROFESSIONNELS CONCERNéS: Fournisseurs de soins de maternité (médecins, sages-femmes et infirmières) et autres fournisseurs d'accompagnement en santé et bien-être lié à la grossesse.

Abstract
21-Hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) is the most common cause of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Increased production of adrenal-derived androgens and progesterone in 21OHD women interfere with their reproductive function and their fertility in many different ways, depending on the severity of the disease. Sexuality and fertility in women with classic 21OHD is impaired, due to several issues such as disrupted gonadotropic axis due to androgen and progesterone overproduction, and mechanical, psychological factors related to genital surgery. Fertility and fecundity in these women get better over the years. Subfertility seems contrariwise to be relative in non-classic 21OHD women. Before pregnancy, genotyping the partner and genetic counselling is mandatory.

Abstract
The quality of life in hospital at home has been very little described. In the "Feel'HAD" study, 488 patients completed an EQ-5D-3L questionnaire during a nursing visit. Neurological and geriatric pathologies were found to be the most degraded, even if there were strong disparities within the different types of conditions. This work has shown that beyond technical care, some people need more support, psychological care, comfort or social support. It led to concrete improvements in our practices and demonstrated that large-scale research is possible in the home.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with both maternal and fetal complications related to maternal hyperglycemia. AIM The aim of the study was to describe the incidence of maternal and fetal complications associated with GDM in a reference maternity hospital in the Tunis (2019-2020). METHODS We conducted a prospective longitudinal descriptive and analytical study including 220 patients followed for GDM at the research unit «Diabetes and pregnancy» of the C department of the National Institute of Nutrition of Tunis. The patients were followed during pregnancy and until post partum, for a period of 18 months (July 2019-December 2020). The patients were divided into two groups Group1(G1) including women treated with insulin therapy (n=68) and Group 2(G2) including women treated with diet only (n=152). RESULTS In the current study, 63,6% of patients delivered by cesarean section and 5% developed gestational induced hypertension. Neonatal outcomes were dominated by macrosomia (13.5%) and transient respiratory distress (11.4%). Insulin-treated women had a higher incidence of gestational induced hypertension (G1:11,9% versus G2: 2,1%;p=0,03). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the incidence of fetal outcomes including macrosomia (G1:17.6% versus G2:11.2%; p=0.203),transient respiratory distress (G1:11.8% versus G2: 10.5%; p=0.781) and prematurity (G1:7.4% versus G2:4.6%; p=0.452). CONCLUSION Our study showed that Insulin-treated women had a higher incidence of gestational induced hypertension. However, there was no significant difference between the two groups in the incidence of fetal complications.

Abstract
Purpose: To estimate the percentage of a sample of pregnant women in Canada following a vegetarian, vegan, low-carbohydrate, gluten-free, Mediterranean, or well-balanced diet, before and during pregnancy and to explore if pregnant women received and were satisfied with nutrition information received from health care providers (HCPs).Methods: Participants were conveniently sampled through Facebook and Twitter. An online survey collected data on sociodemographic characteristics, maternal diet, and whether women received and were satisfied with nutrition information from their HCPs. The McNemar test assessed changes in the proportion of diets followed before and during pregnancy.Results: Of 226 women, most followed a well-balanced diet before (76.9%) and during (72.9%) pregnancy (p = 0.26). Vegetarian, gluten-free, vegan, and low-carbohydrate diets were the least followed diets before and during pregnancy (vegetarian: 7.6% vs 5.3%; gluten-free: 4.9% vs 4.0%; vegan: 2.7% vs 2.2%; low-carbohydrate:4.0% vs 0.4%). Overall, the number of women following restrictive diets before pregnancy was significantly reduced throughout pregnancy (19.1% vs 12.0%, p < 0.001). Only 52.0% of women received nutrition information from their primary HCP, and 35.6% were satisfied with the nutrition information received.Conclusions: Most women followed a well-balanced diet before and during pregnancy and approximately one-third were satisfied with the information received from HCPs.

Abstract
The majority of women do not meet the recommended levels of exercise during their pregnancies, frequently due to a lack of time. High-intensity interval training offers a potential solution, providing an effective, time-efficient exercise modality. This exercise modality has not been studied in pregnancy therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate fetal response to a high-intensity interval training resistance circuit in the late second and early third trimesters of pregnancy. Fourteen active, healthy women with uncomplicated, singleton pregnancies participated in a high-intensity interval training resistance circuit between 28 + 0/7 and 32 + 0/7 weeks. A Borg rating of perceived exertion of 15-17/20 and an estimated heart rate of 80%-90% of maternal heart-rate maximum was targeted. Fetal well-being was evaluated continuously with fetal heart-rate tracings and umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry conducted pre-and post-exercise. Fetal heart rate tracings were normal throughout the exercise circuit. Post-exercise, umbilical artery end-diastolic flow was normal and significant decreases were observed in the mean systolic/diastolic ratios, pulsatility indexes and resistance indexes. Therefore, in a small cohort of active pregnant women, a high-intensity interval training resistance circuit in the late second and early third trimesters of pregnancy appears to be a safe exercise modality with no acute, adverse fetal effects but further study is required. Novelty: High-intensity interval training, at an intensity in excess of current recommendations, does not appear to be associated with any adverse fetal effects in previously active pregnant women. High-intensity interval training is an enjoyable and effective exercise modality in previously active pregnant women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The recent overmedication of childbirth process ignores mothers wishes. In Tunisia, women are not involved in decision-making during childbirth. AIM To analyze the opinion of a sample of Tunisian women regarding the possibility of making their own informed choices during childbirth and to determine the factors that may influence the requested mode of delivery. METHODS This was a 5-month descriptive cross-sectional survey. Were included: Tunisian women who were consultants or practitioners at a university obstetrics and gynaecology department in Tunis; female medicine students or members of women dedicated social network groups. The questionnaire was applied during direct interviews or posted online. The main judgment criteria was: participants' opinion regarding access to autonomous choice of delivery mode. Participants were initially enrolled into 2 groups: • group of women requesting access to autonomous choice. • group of women who do not request access to autonomous choice. The participants were then divided into 2 other groups according to the requested mode of delivery: • Group : Cesarean section • Group: Vaginal delivery. A multivariate logistic regression was used to identify risk factors that may have influenced the responses. RESULTS The total number of participants was 197. Access to autonomous choice was requested by 63.45% of the participants. These were mainly: consultants: OR=7.76 95% CI [0.56-106.16] or practitioners: OR=3.93 95% CI [0.01-829.03], with a high level of education OR=1.22 95% CI [0-1174.40], with a past positive birth experience: OR=1.24 95% CI [0.27-5.74]. The women who did not claim access to autonomous choices were mainly: doctors OR=-0.31 95% CI [0-32.58], midwives: OR=-0.08, 95% CI [0-18.12] or even housewives OR=-0.42 95% CI [0-68.88]. The women who preferred to give birth by Caesarean section were mainly: practitioners: OR=2.03 95% CI [0.53-7.81], nulliparous OR=2.51 95% CI [0.243-25.98], pregnant OR= 4.44 95% CI [1.03-19.13], with a history of cesarean delivery: OR=5.68 95% CI [0.64- 50.43] or even a history of negative childbirth experience: OR=1.87 95% CI [0.22-15.85]. CONCLUSION The request for an Autonomous choice during childbirth most often expresses a certain number of beliefs and fears. Obstetricians should take time to listen and explain, in order to understand the mother's anxieties and enable her to resolve them. Based on the principles of justice, the access to autonomous choices during childbirth process should be universally recognized by legislations and thus fairly respected for all.

Abstract
Supportive father involvement during pregnancy can positively impact maternal and child outcomes. Father participation in prenatal care is increasing, yet little research exists to understand how mothers and fathers experience father participation in prenatal care and their preferences for father participation. We interviewed expectant first-time mothers (N = 22) and fathers (N = 20) to learn about fathers' participation in prenatal care, perceptions of providers' treatment of fathers, and preferences for father participation. Interviews were coded using principles of grounded theory. Father participation ranged from attendance at visits considered "important" (e.g., ultrasounds) to attendance at every appointment. Experiences of father participation varied, with many describing it as both an important act of support for the mother and part of assuming the role of father. Most participants saw great value in father participation in prenatal care as an opportunity for fathers to learn how to support a healthy pregnancy, bond with their developing baby, and share joy and/or worries with mothers. Participants generally felt that fathers were made to feel welcome and wanted providers to be inclusive of fathers during appointments. Results of this study suggest that father participation presents an opportunity for prenatal care providers to foster fathers' positive involvement in pregnancy, support for mothers, and preparation to parent.

Abstract
Insulin resistance is a feature of pregnancy and is associated with increased levels of angiotensin II (Ang II) and insulin. Therefore, pregnancy may change insulin-induced vasodilation through changes in Ang II receptors. Insulin-induced vasorelaxation was evaluated in phenylephrine-precontracted aortic rings of pregnant and non-pregnant rats, using a conventional isolated organ preparation. Experiments were performed in thoracic or abdominal aorta rings with or without endothelium in the presence and absence of NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) (10-5 M), losartan (10-7 M), or PD123319 (10-7 M). AT1 and AT2 receptor expressions were detected by immunohistochemistry. Insulin-induced vasodilation was endothelium- and nitric oxide-dependent and decreased in the thoracic aorta but increased in the abdominal segment of pregnant rats. The insulin's vasorelaxant effect was increased by losartan mainly on the thoracic aorta. PD123319 decreased insulin-induced vasorelaxation mainly in the pregnant rat abdominal aorta. AT1 receptor expression was decreased while AT2 receptor expression was increased by pregnancy. In conclusion, pregnancy changes insulin-induced vasorelaxation. Moreover, insulin vasodilation is tonically inhibited by AT1 receptors, while AT2 receptors appear to have an insulin-sensitizing effect. The role of pregnancy and Ang II receptors differ depending on the aorta segment. These results shed light on the role of pregnancy and Ang II receptors on the regulation of insulin-mediated vasodilation.

Abstract
Ante-natal consultations are major places of prevention, with regard to the psychological vulnerabilities of "becoming parents" specific to the pregnancy period. A study was carried out on future fathers and their impressions of ultrasound examinations. Men's impulsive ambivalence towards pregnancy is the main subject of this research, which shows how ultrasound scans are a place for exploring these impulsive movements of fathers.

Abstract
Despite the established importance of preconception counselling among women with pre-existing diabetes, many Canadian women of this demographic continue to report inadequate medical planning of pregnancy. Primarily due to the teratogenic effects of hyperglycemia in the early weeks of pregnancy, minimizing the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes requires a proactive approach toward medical optimization before conception. Primary care providers are well placed to provide preconception counselling to reproductive age women with pre-existing diabetes to alert them to the importance of pregnancy planning. This counselling may not necessarily require dedicated visits but may take the form of simple check-ins and key messages interspaced between other interactions. Herein we discuss the importance and challenges of preconception counselling among women with pre-existing diabetes and provide a pragmatic approach to the delivery of preconception counselling among primary care providers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Examine the association between news media use frequency during the COVID-19 pandemic and the scale of psychological distress in pregnant women, considering this distress known harmful effects on the fetus development. METHOD Pregnant women living in Quebec province (N = 1014) have been recruited in April 2020 through social media, while a state of health emergency was declared. Participants were divided in 4 groups, according to self-reported frequency of news media consulting (little or none; one time a day; several times a day; constant). They filled measures of depressive symptoms, negative affects, post-traumatic stress symptoms and anxiety specific to COVID-19. Instrument scores were grouped under a unique factor of psychological distress. RESULTS An ANCOVA controlling for age, gestational age, education level, household annual revenue and a diagnosed mental disorder present at the time of participation in study shows that news media exposure frequency is significantly associated with psychological distress severity in pregnant women, during COVID-19 pandemic, F(3,998) = 27.02, p < 0.001, η2 partial = 0.08. Given the mean comparisons a posteriori, higher psychological distress rates are found as soon as news media exposure exceeds once a day (effect sizes between 0.38 and 0.81). CONCLUSIONS The more pregnant women report consulting the news media during the COVID-19 pandemic, the more likely they are to exhibit psychological distress. Results provide one of the first empirical supports to recommendations of World Health Organization, Canada government and psychiatric associations that encourage population to limit their news media consulting during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
This study developed an animal model of gestational obesity and prediabetes in Sprague Dawley rats using 35% sucrose supplementation (SS). Postprandially, insulin stimulates glucose uptake and nutrient partitioning via insulin-dependent action as well as hepatic insulin sensitizing substance (HISS) - dependent action. HISS is glycogenic in heart, kidney, and skeletal muscle (contrasting insulin's lipogenic actions in liver and adipose tissue) and is responsible for the vasodilatory action of insulin. Postprandial insulin sensitivity was quantified using the rapid insulin sensitivity test (RIST). Animals at 15-day gestation and virgin animals received SS for 8 weeks (with a 2-week recovery), 10 weeks, or 22 weeks. SS in pregnant and virgin rats eliminated HISS-dependent glucose uptake, resulting in compensatory hyperinsulinemia and resultant hypertriglyceridemia and obesity. In groups with SS for 8 weeks followed by a 2-week recovery, there was spontaneous partial recovery of HISS-dependent glucose uptake in virgins and complete recovery in pregnancy. The 10-week SS resulted in complete absence of HISS-dependent glucose uptake and produced a model of gestational obesity and prediabetes. The 22-week SS did not produce hyperglycemia or worsen hyperinsulinemia but did increase hypertriglyceridemia above 10-week SS. This substantiates the use of 10-week SS as a model of gestational obesity and (or) prediabetes, allowing further studies into treatments of gestational obesity and insulin resistance.

Abstract
While numerous guidelines for the prescription of physical activity are released each year, the quality and practicability of these guidelines is unknown. We assessed the quality of 95 guidance documents published since 2000 that included recommendations about physical activity for the promotion of general health and prevention of cardiometabolic disease. We used 3 tools: Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE II), the National Academy of Medicine's (NAM) Standards for Trustworthy Clinical Practice Guidelines, and the Frequency, Intensity, Time, and Type (FITT) score. Average AGREE II domain scores ranged from 38%-84%, and the portion of criteria fulfilled per NAM domain ranged from 7%-39%. The average FITT score for all recommendations was 2.48 out of 4. While guidelines improved according to both AGREE II and the NAM standards over time, their practicability as assessed by FITT score did not improve. Guidelines produced by governmental agencies or other nonprofit organizations, using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach, or fulfilling a higher number of NAM criteria tended to be of higher quality. Organizations producing physical activity guidelines can improve their quality by establishing and reporting processes for public representation, external review, and conflict of interest (COI) management. Future recommendations about physical activity should be more specific and include strategies to improve implementation. Registration no.: PROSPERO CRD42019126364. Novelty: Most physical activity recommendations are not sufficiently specific to be practically implemented. The overall quality of guidelines has improved over time, but the specificity of recommendations has not. Improved public representation, external review, and COI disclosure and management processes would improve guideline quality.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study presents and evaluates a CT pulmonary angiography protocol dedicated to pregnant women. The specific feature of this protocol is to place the region of interest (ROI) (bolus detection) in the superior vena cava. The objective is to evaluate the performances of this method. MATERIALS AND METHODS The protocol uses a iodine-based contrast agent at 300mgI/mL and an injection rate of 5 to 6 mL/sec for an injection volume of 50 mL of iodine contrast agent followed by 40 mL of NaCl. The ROI is positioned on the superior vena cava, with a 100 Hounsfield units (HU) threshold, and the acquisition is performed at 100 kVp. This protocol was evaluated retrospectively on a large population (n = 105: group 1) and compared with a control group that did not benefit from this protocol (n = 55: group 2). Both groups were studied on the same device in the same center. Each examination was evaluated and classified into 3 groups: optimal, suboptimal, and noncontributory. Dose length products (DLP) values were also recorded. Statistical tests were applied to the data collected. RESULTS The rate of noncontributory examinations increased from 43.1% for the control group to 4.8% for the new protocol group. The reference enhancement level in the pulmonary trunk is 250 UH. The mean enhancement in the pulmonary trunk of the new protocol group (332 HU (±71 HU (±71 HU)) is significantly greater than the reference value of 250 HU (P < .0001), which is not the case for control group (P = .3485 > .05), which has a mean enhancement of 239 HU (±87 HU). The control group had a mean DLP of 225 mGy.cm (±81 mGy.cm), and the new-protocol group had a mean DLP of 189 mGy.cm (±75 mGy.cm). DISCUSSION Our noncontributory examination rate is the lowest rate described in the literature. Our protocol contradicts standard practices of placing an ROI in the pulmonary trunk for bolus detection of iodinated contrast media. CONCLUSION The results of this study showed that this protocol reduces the number of noncontributory examinations while reducing the dose delivered to patients. This robust protocol is applicable to other devices and meets perfectly radiation-safety requirements and injected contrast media volume limitation.

Abstract
Being parents is an adventure in itself. Being parents in a cross-cultural situation, in exile, away from family and friends, is a double challenge. Today, we know more about the risks and the potential. Let's explore the key ingredients for early childhood: how to live through pregnancy, welcoming the child, being father and mother, building a family in our own way by blending it with local ways of doing things, a more or less hospitable land of welcome. This is followed by a set of guidelines for all the professionals who intervene at this crucial period to build the parent-child bond.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Despite the high burden of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in Egypt, screening of pregnant women is not yet universal, making national and global elimination unlikely. This study assessed the proportion of pregnant women who were screened for HCV infection at delivery, the prevalence and risk factors for HCV infection, the associated adverse neonatal outcomes, and the real-life linkage to care of infected women and follow-up of their infants' HCV status and timing of testing. METHODS Data were collected from medical records of a retrospective cohort of all pregnant women who were admitted to a university hospital in Cairo for delivery between January and June 2018 (n = 6734). HCV antibody- and RNA-positive women and their infants were prospectively followed-up by phone interviews till September 2019. RESULTS 2177 (32.3%) pregnant women were screened for HCV infection. 19 (0.9%) tested HCV antibody- and RNA-positive. Being ≥ 30 years old (ORa 3.6, 95% CI: 1.4-9.2; P = 0.009), history of abortion (ORa 3.5, 95% CI: 1.2-10.3; P = 0.022) and blood transfusion (ORa 29.1, 95% CI: 9.6-88.4; P < 0.001) were independent risk factors for infection. Adverse neonatal outcomes did not vary significantly among HCV antibody-positive and antibody-negative women. Only 13 (68.4%) HCV antibody- and RNA-positive women started treatment with direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) post-breastfeeding (two completed the treatment course and were cured). Four (21.1%) did not start treatment, and two (10.5%) were lost to follow-up. All infants of the 13 HCV antibody- and RNA-positive women who started DAA therapy tested HCV RNA-negative within their first year of life. CONCLUSION Extending screening services to all pregnant women and better linkage to care are essential for the national elimination of HCV infection.

Abstract
Pregnancy requires adaptation of maternal insulin sensitivity. In the fed state, a pulse of insulin stimulates glucose uptake and nutrient energy storage via insulin-dependent as well as hepatic insulin sensitizing substance (HISS)-dependent action. HISS is released by the liver in the fed state in the presence of signals integrated through the liver and a pulse of insulin. HISS promotes glucose storage as glycogen in heart, kidney, and skeletal muscle but not in gut, liver, or adipose tissue. HISS is also responsible for the vasodilatory action previously attributed to insulin. The rapid insulin sensitivity test (RIST), a dynamic euglycemic clamp, can quantitate both HISS-dependent and insulin-dependent glucose uptake. The RIST was used to characterize postprandial insulin sensitivity in the Sprague Dawley rat and the changes in the partitioning of nutrient energy throughout gestation. Early pregnancy demonstrated increased insulin sensitivity attributable to HISS-dependent glucose uptake with unchanged insulin-dependent glucose uptake, preserved plasma insulin concentration, and reduced plasma triglyceride concentration compared to the virgin. In late pregnancy, there was reduced HISS-dependent and insulin-dependent glucose uptake accompanied by increased plasma insulin and triglyceride concentration compared to the virgin. These results suggest an important role for HISS in glucose partitioning in pregnancy.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of an acute bout of cycling immediately after oral glucose intake on glucose metabolism in pregnant women at risk for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Fifteen pregnant women with BMI ≥ 27 kg/m2 were enrolled in a randomized crossover controlled study and underwent two oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs) ingesting 75 g of glucose followed by either 20 min of stationary cycling at moderate intensity (65%-75% maximal heart rate) or rest. Using continuous glucose monitors, glucose was measured up to 48 h after the OGTT. Glucose, insulin, and C-peptide were determined at baseline and after 1 and 2 h. One hour after glucose intake, mean blood glucose was significantly lower after cycling compared with rest (p = 0.002). Similarly, mean glucose peak level was significantly lower after cycling compared with after rest (p = 0.039). Lower levels of insulin and C-peptide were observed after 1 h (p < 0.01). Differences in glucose measurements after 2 h and up to 48 h were not statistically different. We found that 20 min of cycling at moderate intensity after glucose intake reduced blood glucose excursions in pregnant women at risk for GDM. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03644238. Novelty Bullets In pregnant women, we found that cycling after glucose intake resulted in significantly lower glucose levels compared with rest. The exercise intervention studied is feasible for pregnant women and could be readily used to reduce glucose excursions.

Abstract
Introduction We estimate the screening and prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in a primarily first nations obstetrical population in Northwestern Ontario. Methods The study is an 8-year retrospective analysis of all gestational glucose challenge and tolerance tests performed at the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre (SLMHC) laboratory from 1 January, 2010 to 31 December, 2017. Test, gestational timing and completion rate of screening were recorded, and GDM prevalence was calculated on the tested population. Screening completion rates were recorded for the subset of women who delivered at SLMHC from 2014 to 2017. Results The average annual GDM prevalence was 12%, double the Ontario rate. Over the 8-year period, 513 patients were diagnosed with GDM among the 4298 patients screened. Patients were screened with the 2-step (90%) or the 1-step (10%) protocol. Screening occurred <20 weeks in 3%; 54% occurred in <28 weeks and 40% >28 weeks. Seventy percent of the tests were from remote nursing stations. The screening completion rate for women delivering at SLMHC in 2017 was 80.8%. Conclusion The prevalence of GDM in Northwestern Ontario is twice the provincial rate. Most screening used the 2-step protocol; early screening was underused. Improvements in screening programming are underway and future research may match surveillance rates and results to GDM outcomes.

Abstract
The trimellar pregnancy on bicicatricial uterus is a rare situation. It can be associated with many maternal-fetal complications. Given these risks, some teams opt for an embryonic reduction. We report a case of spontaneous trimellar pregnancy on bicicatricial uterus. This was a 38 year-old patient, third pregnancy, second birth, 2 alive with a history of 2 caesareans. The evolution of the pregnancy was marked by a urinary tract infection at 34 weeks of gestation. The caesarean section performed at 36 weeks of gestation allowed the birth of 3 newborns, 2 of which were females in 2000 and 1900 grams, and one male weighing 2400 grams. The postpartum was marked by a rapidly resolved eclampsia crisis.

Abstract
Le parcours en périnatalité a subi une réorganisation complète pendant la crise sanitaire. Le suivi de grossesse a été assuré en totalité, mais pas toujours la préparation à la naissance et à la parentalité. Cette situation, associée à l’absence de l’accompagnant en salle de naissance, a provoqué des incertitudes fortes et, chez certains couples, des angoisses majeures. Pour prévenir les risques de fragilisation des liens conjugaux et parents-enfant, une écoute attentive de la part des soignants s’est avérée nécessaire.

Abstract
L’épidémie due au coronavirus, qui a contraint la population au confinement pendant deux mois, a eu un impact sur la pratique des professionnels de santé, et notamment sur celle des sages-femmes. Les grossesses n’ont pas attendu la fin de la crise sanitaire pour se mettre en route ou arriver à leur terme, et la santé génésique des patientes a dû être préservée. La téléconsultation a permis de maintenir le contact avec les femmes désireuses d’obtenir une grossesse, de la poursuivre ou non, et d’assurer leur surveillance et leur prise en charge, malgré les distances.
