Trends and outcomes for deliveries with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy from 2000 to 2018: A repeated cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To analyse trends, risk factors, and outcomes related to hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP).

Design

Repeated cross-sectional.

Setting

US delivery hospitalisations.

Population

Delivery hospitalisations in the 2000-2018 National Inpatient Sample.

Methods

US hospital delivery hospitalisations with HDP were analysed. Several trends were analysed: (i) the proportion of deliveries by year with HDP, (ii) the proportion of deliveries with HDP risk factors and (iii) adverse outcomes associated with HDP including maternal stroke, acute renal failure and acute liver injury. Risk ratios were determined using regression models with HDP as the exposure of interest.

Main outcome measures

Prevalence of HDP, risk factors for HDP and associated adverse outcomes.

Results

Of 73.1 million delivery hospitalisations, 7.7% had an associated diagnosis of HDP. Over the study period, HDP doubled from 6.0% of deliveries in 2000 to 12.0% in 2018. The proportion of deliveries with risk factors for HDP increased from 9.6% in 2000 to 24.6% in 2018. In adjusted models, HDP were associated with increased stroke (aRR [adjusted risk ratio] 15.9, 95% CI 14.8-17.1), acute renal failure (aRR 13.8, 95% CI 13.5-14.2) and acute liver injury (aRR 1.2, 95% CI 1.2-1.3). Among deliveries with HDP, acute renal failure and acute liver injury increased; in comparison, stroke decreased.

Conclusion

Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy increased in the setting of risk factors for HDP becoming more common, whereas stroke decreased.

Tweetable abstract

While hypertensive disorders of pregnancy increased from 2000 to 2018, stroke appears to be decreasing.

Project description:BackgroundEpilepsy during pregnancy presents a unique set of challenges for pregnant women, the fetus, and the health care community. As research in this area advances rapidly, it is critical to keep up with the emerging trends and key turning points of the development of the domain knowledge. This study aimed to construct a series of science maps to quantitatively and qualitatively evaluate the intellectual landscape and research frontiers in the field of epilepsy during pregnancy research.MethodsAll publications were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection database. Bibliometric analysis was used to analyze the scientific research outputs, including journals, countries/regions, institutions, authors (cited authors), intellectual base and research hotspots.ResultsA total of 2,225 publications related to epilepsy during pregnancy were identified as published between 2000 and 2018. The overall trend of the number of publications showed a fluctuating growth from 59 articles in 2000 to 198 in 2018. Neurology was the leading journal in the field of epilepsy and pregnancy research both in terms of impact factor score (8.055) and H-index value (77). The US retained its leading position and exerted a pivotal influence in this area. The University of Melbourne was identified as a good research institution for research collaboration. Prof. Pennell and Tomson have made great achievements in this area, and Prof. Tomson laid a foundation for the development of this domain. The keyword "neonatal seizures" ranked first in research hotspots, and the keyword "autism spectrum disorders (ASD)" ranked first in research frontiers.ConclusionsEpilepsy during pregnancy is a fascinating and rapid development of subject matter. A more recent emerging trend focused on comprehensive management of pregnant and lactating women, evaluation of the safety and efficacy of newer antiepileptic drugs. The keywords "management issue," "brain injury," "meta-analysis," "in utero exposure," and "ASD" were the latest research frontiers and should be closely observed.

Project description:BackgroundNigeria has one of the highest rates of maternal mortality in the world (576/100,000 births), with a significant proportion of death attributed to hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDPs). High quality antenatal care (ANC) plays a crucial role in early detection and management of HDPs. We conducted an assessment of quality of antenatal care, and its capacity to detect and manage HDPs, in two tiers of Nigerian facilities, with the aim of describing the state of service delivery and identifying the most urgent gaps.MethodsQuality of antenatal care was assessed and compared between primary healthcare centers (PHCs) (n = 56) and hospitals (secondary + tertiary facilities, n = 39) in seven states of Nigeria. A cross-sectional design captured quality of care using facility inventory checklists, semi-structured interviews with healthcare providers and clients, and observations of ANC consultations. A quality of care framework and scoring system was established based on aspects of structure, process, and outcome. Average scores were compared using independent sample t-tests and measures of effect were assessed by multivariate linear regression.ResultsAll domains of quality except provider interpersonal skills scored below 55%. The lowest overall scores were observed in provider knowledge (49.9%) and provider technical skill (47.7%). PHCs performed significantly worse than hospitals in all elements of quality except for provider interpersonal skills. Provider knowledge was significantly associated with their level of designation (i.e., obstetrician vs. other providers).ConclusionsIn order to provide high quality care, ANC in Nigeria must experience massive improvements to inventory, infrastructure and provider knowledge and training. In particular, ANC programs in PHCs must be revitalized to minimize the disparity in quality of care provided between PHCs and hospitals. The relatively low quality of care observed may be contributing to Nigeria's high rate of maternal mortality and burden of disease attributed to HDPs.

Project description:Aims/hypothesisWe aimed to assess maternal-fetal outcomes according to various subtypes of hyperglycaemia in pregnancy.MethodsWe used data from the French National Health Data System (Système National des Données de Santé), which links individual data from the hospital discharge database and the French National Health Insurance information system. We included all deliveries after 22 gestational weeks (GW) in women without pre-existing diabetes recorded in 2018. Women with hyperglycaemia were classified as having overt diabetes in pregnancy or gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), then categorised into three subgroups according to their gestational age at the time of GDM diagnosis: before 22 GW (GDM<22); between 22 and 30 GW (GDM22-30); and after 30 GW (GDM>30). Adjusted prevalence ratios (95% CI) for the outcomes were estimated after adjusting for maternal age, gestational age and socioeconomic status. Due to the multiple tests, we considered an association to be statistically significant according to the Holm-Bonferroni procedure. To take into account the potential immortal time bias, we performed analyses on deliveries at ≥31 GW and deliveries at ≥37 GW.ResultsThe study population of 695,912 women who gave birth in 2018 included 84,705 women (12.2%) with hyperglycaemia in pregnancy: overt diabetes in pregnancy, 0.4%; GDM<22, 36.8%; GDM22-30, 52.4%; and GDM>30, 10.4%. The following outcomes were statistically significant after Holm-Bonferroni adjustment for deliveries at ≥31 GW using GDM22-30 as the reference. Caesarean sections (1.54 [1.39, 1.72]), large-for-gestational-age (LGA) infants (2.00 [1.72, 2.32]), Erb's palsy or clavicle fracture (6.38 [2.42, 16.8]), preterm birth (1.84 [1.41, 2.40]) and neonatal hypoglycaemia (1.98 [1.39, 2.83]) were more frequent in women with overt diabetes. Similarly, LGA infants (1.10 [1.06, 1.14]) and Erb's palsy or clavicle fracture (1.55 [1.22, 1.99]) were more frequent in GDM<22. LGA infants (1.44 [1.37, 1.52]) were more frequent in GDM>30. Finally, women without hyperglycaemia in pregnancy were less likely to have preeclampsia or eclampsia (0.74 [0.69, 0.79]), Caesarean section (0.80 [0.79, 0.82]), pregnancy and postpartum haemorrhage (0.93 [0.89, 0.96]), LGA neonate (0.67 [0.65, 0.69]), premature neonate (0.80 [0.77, 0.83]) and neonate with neonatal hypoglycaemia (0.73 [0.66, 0.82]). Overall, the results were similar for deliveries at ≥37 GW. Although the estimation of the adjusted prevalence ratio of perinatal death was five times higher (5.06 [1.87, 13.7]) for women with overt diabetes, this result was non-significant after Holm-Bonferroni adjustment.Conclusions/interpretationCompared with GDM22-30, overt diabetes, GDM<22 and, to a lesser extent, GDM>30 were associated with poorer maternal-fetal outcomes.
