Maternal sleep during pregnancy and adverse pregnancy outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Aims/introduction

Sleep problems are important public health concern worldwide. We carried out a meta-analysis to quantitatively evaluate whether sleep duration was associated with pregnancy outcomes, and the associations were modified by important characteristics of studies.

Materials and methods

Based on PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases, we searched for published literature related to maternal sleep duration and adverse pregnancy outcomes before 30 June 2021. We carried out risk of bias assessment, subgroup analyses and sensitivity analysis. The relative risks or odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used to estimate the pooled effects.

Results

A total of 5,246 references were identified through a database search, and 41 studies were included in the study. Pregnant women with short sleep duration had 1.81-fold (95% CI 1.35-2.44, P < 0.001) the risk of developing gestational diabetes mellitus. The association between short sleep duration and the risk of gestational hypertension, cesarean section, low birthweight, preterm birth and small for gestational age were not significant (P > 0.05). Furthermore, long sleep duration was significantly correlated with gestational diabetes mellitus (odds ratio1.24. 95% CI 1.12-1.36, P < 0.001) and CS (odds ratio 1.13. 95% CI 1.04-1.22, P = 0.004), whereas long sleep duration was not linked with gestational hypertension, low birthweight, preterm birth and small for gestational age (P > 0.05).

Conclusions

Short/long sleep duration appeared to be associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, specifically with an increased risk of gestational diabetes mellitus. Sleep should be systematically screened in the obstetric population.

Project description:ObjectivesThe low COVID-19 vaccine uptake rate among pregnant women is mainly due to safety concerns about COVID-19 vaccines due to limited safety evidence. Our goal was to evaluate the safety of COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy with up-to-date evidence.MethodsA comprehensive search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, and clinicaltrials.gov was performed on April 5th, 2022, and updated on May 25th, 2022. Studies evaluating the association of COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy with adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes were included. Two reviewers independently performed the risk of bias assessment and data extraction. Inverse variance random effect meta-analyses were performed to pool outcome data.ResultsForty-three observational studies were included. COVID-19 vaccination [96,384 (73.9%) BNT162b2, 30,889 (23.7%) mRNA-1273, and 3,172 (2.4%) other types] during pregnancy [23,721 (18.3%) in the first trimester, 52,778 (40.5%) in the second trimester, and 53,886 (41.2%) in the third trimester].was associated with reduced risks of stillbirth or neonatal death (OR, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.60-0.92). Sensitivity analysis restricted to studies in participants without COVID-19 showed that the pooled effect was not robust. COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy was not associated with congenital anomalies (OR, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.63-1.08), preterm birth (OR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.90-1.06), NICU admission or hospitalization (OR, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.84-1.04), an Apgar score at 5 min <7 (OR, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.86-1.01), low birth weight (OR, 1.00; 95% CI, 0.88-1.14), miscarriage (OR, 0.99; 95% CI, 0.88-1.11), cesarean delivery (OR, 1.07; 95% CI, 0.96-1.19), or postpartum hemorrhage (OR, 0.91; 95% CI, 0.81-1.01).ConclusionsCOVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy was not associated with any of the adverse neonatal or maternal outcomes studied. Interpretation of study findings is limited by the types and timing of vaccination. The vaccinations in our study received during pregnancy were primarily mRNA vaccines administered in the second and third trimester. Future RCTs and meta-analysis are warranted to evaluate the efficacy and long-term effects of the COVID-19 vaccines.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?ID=CRD42022322525, identifier: PROSPERO, CRD42022322525.

Project description:ObjectivesTo review systematically current literature on kidney function changes during pregnancy, in order to estimate the extent of adaptation over the course of both healthy physiological and complicated singleton pregnancies, and to determine healthy pregnancy reference values.MethodsPubMed (NCBI) and EMBASE (Ovid) electronic databases were searched, from inception to July 2017, for studies on kidney function during uncomplicated and complicated pregnancies. Included studies were required to report a non-pregnant reference value of kidney function (either in a non-pregnant control group or as a prepregnancy or postpartum measurement) and a pregnancy measurement at a predetermined and reported gestational age. Kidney function measures assessed were glomerular filtration rate (GFR) measured by inulin clearance, GFR measured by creatinine clearance and serum creatinine level. Pooled mean differences between pregnancy measurements and reference values were calculated for predefined intervals of gestational age in uncomplicated and complicated pregnancies using a random-effects model described by DerSimonian?and?Laird.ResultsTwenty-nine studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis. As early as the first trimester, GFR was increased by up to 40-50% in physiological pregnancy when compared with non-pregnant values. Inulin clearance in uncomplicated pregnancy was highest at 36-41?weeks, with a 55.6% (53.7; 95% CI, 44.7-62.6?mL/min) increase when compared with non-pregnant values, and creatinine clearance was highest at 15-21?weeks' gestation, with a 37.6% (36.6; 95% CI, 26.2-46.9?mL/min) increase. Decrease in serum creatinine level in uncomplicated pregnancy was most prominent at 15-21?weeks, with a 23.2% (-0.19; 95% CI, -0.23 to -0.15?mg/dL) decrease when compared with non-pregnant values. Eight studies reported on pregnancies complicated by a hypertensive disorder. Meta-regression analysis showed a significant difference in all kidney function parameters when comparing uncomplicated and hypertensive complicated pregnancies.ConclusionsIn healthy pregnancy, GFR is increased as early as the first trimester, as compared with non-pregnant values, and?the kidneys continue to function at a higher rate throughout gestation. In contrast, kidney function is decreased in hypertensive pregnancy. © 2018 The Authors.
