80 pregnant women were examined after assisted reproductive technology (ART) programs: 40 women with manifestations of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnant women (IHP) - the main group and 40 women without manifestations of IHP (comparison group).In the majority (62.5%) of patients after ART, the diagnosis of IHP established after 30 weeks of pregnancy. Some patients (27.5%) reported short-term episodes of IHP up to 24 weeks of gestation. In 17.5% of women, IHP had a severe course. Almost a third (27.5%) of women are over 35 years old. Women with IHP have a significantly higher frequency of allergies in the anamnesis (35.0%), liver pathology (20.0%) and diseases of the gastrointestinal tract (25.0%). In one third of women, IHP developed repeatedly, 42.5% of the main patients indicated a family history burdened with IHP. Almost a third of women (27.5% vs. 12.5%, p<0.05) had a history of polycystic ovary syndrome.The current pregnancy characterized by a high frequency of complications. A quarter of patients (25.0%) had early preeclampsia. In the second half of pregnancy, the threat of preterm birth noted in most women during the manifestation of IHP (60.0%). The incidence of fetal distress in women with IHP was almost 2 times higher than in patients without this complication (47.5% vs. 25.0%, respectively, p <0.05). The frequency of preeclampsia is also higher (40.0%).The vast majority of women in the main group were born by cesarean section (70.0%). Almost half of patients with IHP were premature (45.0%). A third of women (35.0%) had fetal distress in childbirth. In 27.5%, childbirth complicated by bleeding of more than 5% of body weight. The postpartum period was characterized by a 4-fold increase in the frequency of late bleeding (20.0% vs. 5.0%, p <0.05).One case of antenatal mortality noted in pregnant women after ART with IHP. Almost half of the children were born with asphyxia of varying severity (48.7%), with 10.3% diagnosed with severe asphyxia. One third of children were born with a body weight below 2500 g (30.8%). In 74.4% of newborns from mothers of the main group, various disorders of the period of early neonatal adaptation were noted, among which the most prominent were: RDS (35.9%), jaundice (43.6%) and gastrointestinal syndrome (30.8%). The 2-fold increased incidence of hemorrhagic syndrome (17.9%) is noteworthy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
