“…1 2 Until now, much of the research has aimed to identify potential risk factors as the underlying aetiology of miscarriage is not well understood. 2 Studies indicate the need for familial and social support following miscarriage as it can be an extremely painful and upsetting experience, 3 4 with some women experiencing medical complications. 5 6 Quantitative studies indicate that the experience of miscarriage can negatively impact on the men's and women's psychological well-being.…”

ObjectiveThe objective of the study was to explore the experiences of those who have experienced miscarriage, focusing on men's and women's accounts of miscarriage.DesignThis was a qualitative study using a phenomenological framework. Following in-depth semistructured interviews, analysis was undertaken in order to identify superordinate themes relating to their experience of miscarriage.SettingA large tertiary-level maternity hospital in Ireland.ParticipantsA purposive sample of 16 participants, comprising 10 women and 6 men, was recruited.Results6 superordinate themes in relation to the participant's experience of miscarriage were identified: (1) acknowledgement of miscarriage as a valid loss; (2) misperceptions of miscarriage; (3) the hospital environment, management of miscarriage; (4) support and coping; (5) reproductive history; and (6) implications for future pregnancies.ConclusionsOne of the key findings illustrates a need for increased awareness in relation to miscarriage. The study also indicates that the experience of miscarriage has a considerable impact on men and women. This study highlights that a thorough investigation of the underlying causes of miscarriage and continuity of care in subsequent pregnancies are priorities for those who experience miscarriage. Consideration should be given to the manner in which women who have not experienced recurrent miscarriage but have other potential risk factors for miscarriage could be followed up in clinical practice.

“…21 . [22][23][24][25] These comorbidities were identified based on inpatient or outpatient encounters with diagnoses that were categorized with the HCC. 26 We also adjusted for indications of MPA and AZA, which were categorized into three groups: transplant (ie, kidney or solid organ transplant), low-risk autoimmune disease (ie, rheumatoid arthritis, myasthenia gravis, multiple sclerosis, arteritis, or skin disorder), and high-risk autoimmune disease (ie, nephritis, autoimmune hepatitis, iridocyclitis, systemic lupus erythematosus systemic sclerosis, and other connective tissue disorders) based on their risk of pregnancy loss.…”

Purpose To evaluate the relative risk of pregnancy loss associated with mycophenolate (MPA) vs azathioprine (AZA) use. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the IBM MarketScan Research Databases (2005‐2015). Patients with ≥1 MPA or AZA prescription claim during the first trimester were included. The study outcome was pregnancy loss (spontaneous abortion or stillbirth). Potential confounders included age, drug indications, comorbidities, other teratogenic medication use, and gestational age at first MPA or AZA prescription fill. The risk for pregnancy loss was estimated using a generalized estimating equation model with stabilized inverse probability of treatment weighting. In sensitivity analyses, we varied the exposure definition, outcome definition, and the analytical method. Results Among 111 pregnancies exposed to MPA, 55 resulted in pregnancy loss (49.5%). Among 471 pregnancies exposed to AZA, 113 had pregnancy loss (24.0%). The unadjusted relative risk for pregnancy loss was 2.0 (95% CI 1.6, 2.6), and the adjusted relative risk was 1.9 (95% CI, 1.6, 2.3) compared to AZA. Relative risk estimates were stable in all sensitivity analyses. Conclusion Exposure to MPA during early pregnancy was associated with a 2‐fold increase in pregnancy loss risk.

“…Heavy metals, particularly lead and cadmium, which are classified as global environmental pollutants, adversely affect the generative function even in low concentrations. Lead excess can cause miscarriage, intrauterine growth retardation, chronic fetal hypoxia, bleeding during pregnancy and labor and the occurrence of birth defects in infants [5,6]. The elevated lead level in pregnant woman's blood leads to the higher content of this metal in the blood of a newborn child that can cause disorders of the psychological development and child's mental abilities [6].…”
