    Abstract: To estimate the association of selected maternal and fetal characteristics with the risk of perinatal mortality in South China. Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted from March 2013 to December 2019. The exposures of interest were maternal sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle and habits during early pregnancy, and complications of pregnancy. Their effects on the development of perinatal death were analyzed in our study. Results A total of 44,048 eligible pregnant women were included in the analysis. Of these, 596 fetuses were perinatal deaths (perinatal mortality was 13.5 per 1,000 births). After adjustment, maternal obesity, being employed, history of gestational hypertension, taking antidepressants during early pregnancy, history of gestational diabetes mellitus, gestational diabetes mellitus, infertility drug treatment and assisted reproductive techniques, history of neonatal death, preterm birth, and congenital malformations all significantly increased the risk of perinatal death. Ethnic minority, income & gt; 5,000, multiparous women, and cesarean section associated with reduced risk of perinatal death. Conclusion Some factors of maternal sociodemographic characteristics, abnormal pregnancy history, lifestyle and habits during early pregnancy, and complications of pregnancy were associated with the risk of perinatal death.

    Abstract: Given that the time lag between cytomegalovirus (CMV) screening and diagnosed testing, a better knowledge of the association between pregnant women with CMV screening test positive and stillbirth in an epidemiological perspective was required to assist people being counseled reframe their pregnancy and birth plans based on the magnitude of the risk. Methods This study recruited 44048 eligible pregnant women from March 13, 2013 to December 31, 2019. Serological tests including CMV-specific IgM and IgG, and IgG avidity index were used to screen for maternal CMV infection and were measured by automated chemiluminescence immunoassay. The association was assessed using the inverse probability of group-weighted multivariate-adjusted log-binomial models. Results A total of 540 infants ended with a stillbirth (12.3 per 1000 pregnancies), and 2472 pregnancies with maternal CMV infection were screened out (56.1 per 1000 pregnancies) among all eligible pregnancies. In the comparison analysis, 326 infants ended with a stillbirth (86.6 per 1000 pregnancies) in the maternal CMV infection group compared with 214 infants (7.8 per 1000 pregnancies) in the group where mothers were not infected with CMV (RR 12.17; 95% CI 9.43–15.71). After excluding the pregnancies of stillbirth with birth defects, a strong association between the two groups was still observed (RR 9.38; 95% CI 6.92–12.70). Conclusion Our findings quantified the risk of a woman having a baby with stillbirth if she had a positive serologic CMV screening test in her first trimester, and supported the value of using CMV serologic tests as part of regular testing in pregnant women.

    Abstract: MTHFD1 gene may affect the embryonic development by elevated homocysteine levels, DNA synthesis and DNA methylation, but limited number of genetic variants of MTHFD1 gene was focused on the association with congenital heart disease (CHD). This study examined the role of MTHFD1 gene and maternal smoking on infant CHD risk, and investigated their interaction effects in Chinese populations. Methods A case-control study of 464 mothers of CHD infants and 504 mothers of health controls was performed. The exposures of interest were maternal tobacco exposure, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of maternal MTHFD1 gene. The logistic regression model was used for accessing the strength of association. Results Mothers exposed to secondhand smoke during 3 months before pregnancy (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.56; 95% confidence interval [CI] : 1.13–2.15) and in the first trimester of pregnancy (aOR = 2.24; 95%CI: 1.57–3.20) were observed an increased risk of CHD. Our study also found that polymorphisms of maternal MTHFD1 gene at rs1950902 (AA vs. GG: aOR = 1.73, 95% CI: 1.01–2.97), rs2236222 (GG vs. AA: aOR = 2.38, 95% CI: 1.38–4.12), rs1256142 (GA vs.GG: aOR = 1.57, 95% CI: 1.01–2.45) and rs11849530 (GG vs. AA: aOR = 1.68, 95% CI: 1.02–2.77) were significantly associated with higher risk of CHD. However, we did not observe a significant association between maternal MTHFD1 rs2236225 and offspring CHD risk. Furthermore, we found the different degrees of interaction effects between polymorphisms of the MTHFD1 gene including rs1950902, rs2236222, rs1256142, rs11849530 and rs2236225, and maternal tobacco exposure. Conclusions Maternal polymorphisms of MTHFD1 gene, maternal tobacco exposure and their interactions are significantly associated with the risk of CHD in offspring in Han Chinese populations. However, more studies in different ethnic populations with a larger sample and prospective designs are required to confirm our findings. Trial registration Registration number: ChiCTR1800016635 .
