ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of hypertensive disorders during pregnancy among Brazilian women with preterm births and to compare the epidemiological characteristics and perinatal outcomes among preterm births of women with and without hypertension. Methods This was a secondary cross-sectional analysis of the Brazilian Multicenter Study on Preterm Birth. During the study period, all women with preterm births were included and further split into two groups according to the occurrence of any hypertensive disorder during pregnancy. Prevalence ratios were calculated for each variable. Maternal characteristics, prenatal care, and gestational and perinatal outcomes were compared between the two groups using χ2 and t-tests. Results A total of 4,150 women with preterm births were included, and 1,169 (28.2%) were identified as having hypertensive disorders. Advanced maternal age (prevalence ratio (PR) 2.49) and obesity (PR= 2.64) were more common in the hypertensive group. The gestational outcomes were worse in women with hypertension. Early preterm births were also more frequent in women with hypertension. Conclusion Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy were frequent among women with preterm births, and provider-initiated preterm births were the leading causes of premature births in this group. The factors significantly associated with hypertensive disorders among women with preterm births were obesity, excessive weight gain, and higher maternal age. hypertension crosssectional cross sectional Birth period variable care χ ttests. ttests t tests. tests t-tests 4150 4 150 4,15 1169 1 169 1,16 28.2% 282 28 2 (28.2% PR (PR 2.49 249 49 PR= 2.64 264 64 group providerinitiated provider initiated gain 415 15 4,1 116 16 1,1 28.2 (28.2 2.4 24 2.6 26 6 41 4, 11 1, 28.

Abstract In low and middle-income countries such as Brazil, most maternal deaths are related to hypertensive complications. Preeclampsia is the leading cause of maternal mortality and morbidity. Significant proportion is associated with the following factors: lack of identification of high-risk women, lack of adequate prevention, difficulty in maintaining a high-risk prenatal follow-up, delayed diagnosis, insecurity and low use of magnesium sulphate, delayed pregnancy interruption and lack of postpartum follow-up of these high-risk cases. Four major actions are proposed to minimize this alarming clinical picture and reduce the mortality rates due to preeclampsia, called the "4 P Rule" (Adequate Prevention – Vigilant Prenatal Care – Timely Delivery (Parturition) – Safe Postpartum). From this simple "rule" we can open a range of important processes and reminders that may help in the guidance of preeclampsia management. middleincome middle income Brazil complications morbidity factors highrisk high risk women prevention followup, followup follow up, up diagnosis sulphate cases 4 " Rule Adequate Parturition (Parturition Postpartum.

ABSTRACT Problem: The contamination of water bodies by copper (II) ions caused by industries harms the environment and human health. Solution: Adsorption removes such ions using activated carbon, which may be replaced with bioadsorbents (biomass from agro-industrial waste), as they are more accessible and renewable, capturing contaminant species from functional groups. This study verified the adsorption efficiency of copper (II) ions using mango residue flour (Mangifera indica L., MRF) as a bioadsorbent. Methodology: MRF preparation consisted of drying Tommy mango pits and seeds (80°C, 48 hours), crushing, sieving, and treating them with hydrochloric acid (0.05 mol L–1, 10 minutes). The MRF characterization techniques were FTIR and point of zero charge (PZC). Adsorption studies occurred at 25°C, pH of 4.6, and constant stirring. Adsorption time and MRF mass were the parameters to determine optimal adsorption conditions. Complexometric titration determined the concentration of adsorbed copper (II) ions. Results and discussion: FTIR identified the functional groups interacting with copper (II) ions. PZC determined that the surface charge of MRF is neutral at a pH of 4.3, positive and interacting with anions at a pH lower than 4.3, and negative and interacting with cations at a pH higher than 4.3. The optimal adsorption conditions were 30 minutes and 0.1 g of MRF. The non-linear Redlich-Peterson and Langmuir isotherm models provided the best fits, suggesting a multilayer MRF adsorption mechanism. The maximum percentage of copper (II) ion removal was 77.5%. Conclusion: Adsorption using MRF potentially removes copper (II) ions.

Abstract Objective This study aims to create a new screening for preterm birth < 34 weeks after gestation with a cervical length (CL) ≤ 30 mm, based on clinical, demographic, and sonographic characteristics. Methods This is a post hoc analysis of a randomized clinical trial (RCT), which included pregnancies, in middle-gestation, screened with transvaginal ultrasound. After observing inclusion criteria, the patient was invited to compare pessary plus progesterone (PP) versus progesterone only (P) (1:1). The objective was to determine which variables were associated with severe preterm birth using logistic regression (LR). The area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) were calculated for both groups after applying LR, with a false positive rate (FPR) set at 10%. Results The RCT included 936 patients, 475 in PP and 461 in P. The LR selected: ethnics white, absence of previous curettage, previous preterm birth, singleton gestation, precocious identification of short cervix, CL < 14.7 mm, CL in curve > 21.0 mm. The AUC (CI95%), sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and PNV, with 10% of FPR, were respectively 0.978 (0.961-0.995), 83.4%, 98.1%, 83.4% and 98.1% for PP < 34 weeks; and 0.765 (0.665-0.864), 38.7%, 92.1%, 26.1% and 95.4%, for P < 28 weeks.

Resumo Objetivo Comparar as taxas de cesárea segundo a Classificação de Robson, assim como suas indicações, em mulheres admitidas para parto durante a primeira onda de doença do coronavírus 2019 (coronavirus disease 2019, COVID-19, em inglês), com as do ano anterior. Materiais e Métodos Conduzimos um estudo transversal que comparou as mulheres admitidas para parto entre abril e outubro de 2019 (pré-pandemia) e entre março e setembro de 2020 (durante a pandemia). As cesarianas e as suas indicações foram classificadas conforme o sistema proposto por Robson, e obteve-se a via de parto (vaginal ou cesárea). Ambos os períodos foram comparados usando-se os testes do Qui quadrado ou o exato de Fisher. Resultados Ao todo, 2.943 mulheres foram incluídas, das quais 1.291 antes da pandemia e 1.202 durante a pandemia. A taxa de cesárea aumentou significativamente (de 39.66% para 44,01%; p = 0,028), principalmente devido a desejo materno (de 9,58% para 25,38%; p < 0,01). Os grupos 5 e 2 foram os que mais contribuíram para as taxas de cesárea. Durante a pandemia, o grupo 1 reduziu sua frequência, enquanto o grupo 2 a aumentou. Conclusão Houve uma aparente mudança nas características da população conforme a classificação de Robson. Observou-se significativo aumento nas taxas de cesárea, principalmente por desejo materno, o que reflete possíveis incertezas e medos relacionados à COVID-19.

Abstract Objective To compare cesarean section (CS) rates according to the Robson Ten Group Classification System (RTGCS) and its indications in pregnant women admitted for childbirth during the first wave of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic with those of the previous year. Materials and Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study to compare women admitted for childbirth from April to October 2019 (before the pandemic) and from March to September 2020 (during the pandemic). The CSs and their indications were classified on admission according to the RTGCS, and we also collected data on the route of delivery (vaginal or CS). Both periods were compared using the Chi-squared (χ2) test or the Fisher exact test. Results In total, 2,493 women were included, 1,291 in the prepandemic and 1,202 in the pandemic period. There was a a significant increase in the CS rate (from 39.66% to 44.01%; p = 0.028), mostly due to maternal request (from 9.58% to 25.38%; p < 0.01). Overall, groups 5 and 2 contributed the most to the CS rates. The rates decreased among group 1 and increased among group 2 during the pandemic, with no changes in group 10. Conclusion There was an apparent change in the RTGSC comparing both periods, with a significant increase in CS rates, mainly by maternal request, most likely because of changes during the pandemic and uncertainties and fear concerning COVID-19.

Resumo Objetivo Avaliar o impacto da raça (negra versus não negra) nos desfechos maternos e perinatais de gestantes com COVID-19 no Brasil. Métodos Esta é uma subanálise da REBRACO, um estudo de coorte multicêntrico brasileiro desenhado para avaliar o impacto da COVID-19 em mulheres grávidas. De fevereiro de 2020 a fevereiro de 2021, 15 maternidades do Brasil coletaram dados de mulheres com sintomas respiratórios. Selecionamos todas as mulheres com teste positivo para COVID-19; em seguida, as dividimos em dois grupos: mulheres negras e não negras. Finalmente, comparamos, entre os grupos, os resultados sociodemográficos, maternos e perinatais. Obtivemos a frequência dos eventos em cada grupo e comparamos usando o teste X2; Valores de p <0,05 foram considerados significativos. Também estimamos o odds ratio (OR) e os intervalos de confiança (IC). Resultados 729 mulheres sintomáticas foram incluídas no estudo; desses, 285 foram positivos para COVID-19, 120 (42,1%) eram negros e 165 (57,9%) não eram negros. As mulheres negras apresentaram pior escolaridade (p = 0,037). O tempo de acesso ao sistema de saúde foi semelhante entre os dois grupos, com 26,3% incluídos com sete ou mais dias de sintomas. Síndrome respiratória aguda grave (OR 2,22 CI 1,17–4,21), admissão em unidade de terapia intensiva (OR 2,00 CI 1,07–3,74) e dessaturação na admissão (OR 3,72 CI 1,41–9,84) foram mais prováveis de ocorrer entre mulheres negras. A mortalidade materna foi maior entre as negras (7,8% vs. 2,6%, p = 0,048). Os resultados perinatais foram semelhantes entre os dois grupos.

Abstract Objective To evaluate the impact of the race (Black versus non-Black) on maternal and perinatal outcomes of pregnant women with COVID-19 in Brazil. Methods This is a subanalysis of REBRACO, a Brazilian multicenter cohort study designed to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on pregnant women. From February2020 until February 2021, 15 maternity hospitals in Brazil collected data on women with respiratory symptoms. We selected all women with a positive test for COVID-19; then, we divided them into two groups: Black and non-Black women. Finally, we compared, between groups, sociodemographic, maternal, and perinatal outcomes. We obtained the frequency of events in each group and compared them using X2 test; p-values < 0.05 were considered significant. We also estimated the odds ratio (OR) and confidence intervals (CI). Results 729 symptomatic women were included in the study; of those, 285 were positive for COVID-19, 120 (42.1%) were Black, and 165 (57.9%) were non-Black. Black women had worse education (p = 0.037). The timing of access to the health system was similar between both groups, with 26.3% being included with seven or more days of symptoms. Severe acute respiratory syndrome (OR 2.22 CI 1.17–4.21), intensive care unit admission (OR 2.00 CI 1.07–3.74), and desaturation at admission (OR 3.72 CI 1.41–9.84) were more likely to occur among Black women. Maternal death was higher among Black women (7.8% vs. 2.6%, p = 0.048). Perinatal outcomes were similar between both groups.

ABSTRACT Objective The objective was to compare the maternal and perinatal characteristics and outcomes between women with and without diabetes in a Brazilian cohort of women with preterm births. Methods This was an ancillary analysis of the Brazilian Multicenter Study on Preterm Birth, which included 4,150 preterm births. This analysis divided preterm births into two groups according to the presence of diabetes; pregestational and gestational diabetes were clustered in the same Diabetes Group. Differences between both groups were assessed using χ 2 or Student’s t tests. Results Preterm births of 133 and 4,017 women with and without diabetes, respectively, were included. The prevalence of diabetes was 3.2%. Pregnant women aged ≥35 years were more common in the Diabetes Group (31.6% versus 14.0% non-diabetic women, respectively). The rate of cesarean section among patients with diabetes was 68.2% versus 52.3% in non-diabetic cases), with a gestational age at birth between 34 and 36 weeks in 78.9% of the cases and 62.1% of the controls. Large-for-gestational-age babies were 7 times more common in the Diabetes Group. Conclusion Preterm birth among Brazilian women with diabetes was more than twice as prevalent; these women were older and had regular late preterm deliveries, usually by cesarean section. They also had a greater frequency of fetal morbidities, such as malformations and polyhydramnios, and a higher proportion of large-for-gestational-age and macrosomic neonates.

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To estimate the prevalence of unplanned pregnancy in eight public university hospitals, distributed in the five regions that make up Brazil. METHODS A secondary analysis of a national multicenter cross-sectional study, carried out in eight public university hospitals between June 1 and August 31, 2020, in Brazil. Convenience sample including women who gave birth within sixty consecutive days and met the following criteria: over 18 years old; gestational age over 36 weeks at delivery; with a single and live newborn, without malformations. RESULTS Sample composed of 1,120 postpartum women, of whom 756 (67.5%) declared that the pregnancy had not been planned. The median prevalence of unplanned pregnancy was 59.7%. The prevalence of unplanned pregnancy across hospitals differed significantly: Campinas (54.8%), Porto Alegre (58.2%), Florianópolis (59%), Teresina (61.2%), Brasília (64.3%), São Paulo (64.6%), Campo Grande (73.9%) and Manaus (95.3%) (p < 0.001). Factors significantly associated with unplanned pregnancy were maternal age, black color, lower family income, greater number of children, greater number of people living in household, and not having a partner. CONCLUSION In the studied sample, about two thirds of the pregnancies were declared as unplanned. The prevalence of unplanned pregnancies was related to social and demographic factors and varied significantly across the university hospitals evaluated.

■ RESUMO Introdução: Tradicionalmente, o rebaixamento do dorso é o único método de correção da giba. Raras séries apontam a elevação do radix como possível solução. O que explica essa maciça predominância do procedimento redutor? Ineficácia dos métodos de aumento de radix e ponta? Percepção de nariz grande com os procedimentos de aumento? Nossos objetivos são descobrir se a percepção de redução ocorre na rinoplastia não cirúrgica (RNC), feita exclusivamente com adição de volume, e se a percepção de redução é importante na RNC. Método: Análise retrospectiva de 116 pacientes consecutivos submetidos a RNC. As imagens dos pacientes foram analisadas por 12 observadores independentes que avaliaram as mudanças percebidas no tamanho do nariz e a qualidade da correção, dando notas de 1 a 10 para os dois quesitos. Quanto ao tamanho, 1 representava muito menor que antes, 5 mesmo tamanho (neutralidade) e 10 muito maior que antes. A qualidade da correção foi classificada de 1 a 10. Resultados: 92 casos (79%) foram percebidos como redução do tamanho, enquanto 20 casos (17%) foram percebidos como aumento. Houve percepção de redução na média das pontuações de tamanho (4,71). A média da qualidade da correção foi de 8,28 na escala de 1 a 10. Ademais, nossos resultados sugerem que pode haver correlação indireta entre a percepção do tamanho e a qualidade da correção. Conclusão: O aumento proporcionado pela RNC pode causar percepção de redução do tamanho do nariz, e o grau da redução percebida pode estar diretamente relacionado ao grau de qualidade percebida da correção.

■ ABSTRACT Introduction: Traditionally, lowering the dorsum is the only method of hump correction. Rare series point to raising the radix as a possible solution. What explains this massive predominance of the reduction procedure? Ineffectiveness of radix and tip augmentation methods? Big nose perception with augmentation procedures? Our objectives are to determine if the perception of reduction occurs in non-surgical rhinoplasty (NSR), performed exclusively with volume addition, and if the perception of reduction is important in NSR. Method: Retrospective analysis of 116 consecutive patients undergoing NSR. The patients’ images were analyzed by 12 independent observers who evaluated the perceived changes in the nose’s size and the correction’s quality, giving scores from 1 to 10 for both questions. As for size, 1 represented much smaller than before, 5 same size (neutrality), and 10 much larger than before. The quality of correction was graded from 1 to 10. Results: 92 cases (79%) were considered size reduction, while 20 cases (17%) were considered enlargement. There was a perception of a reduction in the average size scores (4.71). The mean correction quality was 8.28 on a scale of 1 to 10. Furthermore, our results suggest that there may be an indirect correlation between perceived size and correction quality. Conclusion: The increase provided by the NSR can cause a perception of a reduction in the size of the nose, and the degree of perceived reduction can be directly related to the degree of perceived quality of the correction.

Resumo Objetivo Avaliar os desfechos maternos e neonatais em mulheres com doença renal crônica (DRC) em um centro de referência para gestação de alto risco. Métodos Coorte retrospectiva de gestantes com DRC acompanhadas no Hospital da Mulher da Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Brasil, entre 2012 e 2020. Variáveis relacionadas à etiologia da doença, duração do tratamento, variáveis sociodemográficas, estilo de vida, outras doenças associadas, história obstétrica, número de consultas de pré-natal e os resultados perinatais foram avaliados. As causas da DRC foram agrupadas em 10 subgrupos. Posteriormente, dividimos a amostra de acordo com a idade gestacional no parto, pois os nascimentos pré-termo e a termo comparam os desfechos maternos e neonatais bem como as características basais e desfechos entre esses grupos. Resultados Um total de 84 gestações foram incluídas em 67 mulheres com DRC. Dentre elas, seis gestações evoluíram para óbito fetal, cinco para aborto espontâneo, e uma era gestação gemelar. Foram analisadas ainda 72 gestações únicas, com nascidos vivos; a idade gestacional média ao nascer foi de 35 semanas e 3 dias, e o peso médio ao nascer foi 2.444 g. Cerca de metade da amostra (51,39%) apresentava hipertensão prévia e 27,7% desenvolveram pré-eclâmpsia. Entre os casos de prematuridade (34 casos), observamos maior frequência de síndromes hipertensivas, mais dias de internação materna na UTI no pós-parto, maior incidência de internação na UTI neonatal, óbito neonatal, menor índice de Apgar de 5 minutos e menor peso ao nascimento. Conclusão Este estudo demonstra o aumento de desfechos adversos em gestações complicadas por DRC e amplia o conhecimento sobre cuidados obstétricos entre essas mulheres na tentativa de reduzir os riscos maternos e identificar fatores relacionados à prematuridade nessa população.

Abstract Objective To assess maternal and neonatal outcomes in women with chronic kidney disease (CKD) at a referral center for high-risk pregnancy. Methods A retrospective cohort of pregnant women with CKD was followed at the Women's Hospital of Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Brazil, between 2012 and 2020. Variables related to disease etiology, treatment duration, sociodemographic variables, lifestyle, other associated diseases, obstetric history, and perinatal outcomes were assessed. The causes of CKD were grouped into 10 subgroups. Subsequently, we divided the sample according to gestational age at childbirth, as preterm and term births, comparing maternal and neonatal outcomes, and baseline characteristics as well as outcomes among such groups. Results A total of 84 pregnancies were included, in 67 women with CKD. Among them, six pregnancies evolved to fetal death, five to miscarriage, and one was a twin pregnancy. We further analyzed 72 single pregnancies with live births; the mean gestational age at birth was 35 weeks and 3 days, with a mean birth weight of 2,444 g. Around half of the sample (51.39%) presented previous hypertension, and 27.7% developed preeclampsia. Among the preterm births, we observed a higher frequency of hypertensive syndromes, longer maternal intensive care unit (ICU) stay in the postpartum period, higher incidence of admission to the neonatal ICU, higher neonatal death, lower 5-minute Apgar score, and lower birth weight. Conclusion This study demonstrates increased adverse outcomes among pregnancies complicated by CKD and expands the knowledge on obstetric care among such women in an attempt to reduce maternal risks and identify factors related to prematurity in this population.

RESUMO Introdução: A perda de volume é a principal causa da aparência de envelhecimento. Assim, a demanda por materiais de preenchimento que sejam seguros, duradouros e biocompatíveis tem crescido, com ênfase na lipoenxertia. Porém, algumas questões relativas à padronização ainda não estão claras, como áreas a serem injetadas e volumes. Assim, busca-se analisar os resultados de uma série de casos e sistematizar os volumes de preenchimento a serem utilizados, bem como correlacionar a linguagem usada na lipoenxertia facial com a do MD Codes®. Métodos: Revisão dos prontuários de pacientes que realizaram lipoenxertia facial. A seleção da área doadora foi procedida com base em critérios de conveniência, como facilidade de posicionamento, abundância de material e o contorno corporal do paciente. A colheita foi por aspiração manual. A preparação foi feita pela técnica de Coleman. Áreas de aplicação: para traçar um paralelo entre os conhecimentos adquiridos com a lipoenxertia facial e o preenchimento com material sintético, foi utilizada a nomenclatura utilizada nos MD Codes®. Resultados: Foram incluídos 54 lipoenxertos faciais (11% homens / 88,88% mulheres). Idade média de 43,94 anos (20 a 71, desvio padrão 11,21). O tempo médio de acompanhamento foi 155,61 dias (variação de 7-543, desvio padrão 156,05). Não houve complicações relacionadas ao método. O volume médio injetado foi de 29,83ml (intervalo 6-53,9, desvio padrão 12,07). Conclusão: A lipoenxertia autóloga é um procedimento factível para alguns casos de rejuvenescimento facial. A linguagem MD Codes® pode ser usada em paralelo com a descrição anatômica das regiões injetadas neste estudo.

ABSTRACT Introduction: As has been demonstrated, volume loss is a primary cause of aging appearance. So, the demand for filling materials that are safe, long-lasting, and biocompatible has grown, increasing the emphasis on lipografting. However, some issues regarding standardization are still unclear, like areas to be injected and volumes. So, the main objective is to analyze the results of a case series and systematize the filler volumes to be used and correlate the language used in facial lipografting with that used in MD Codes®. Methods: Review the medical records of those who underwent facial fat grafting. Selection of donor area was proceeded based on convenience criteria, which assesses the ease of positioning, the abundance of material, and the patient’s body contour. Harvesting was by manual aspiration. Preparation was done by Colemans’ technique. Application areas: To draw a parallel between the knowledge acquired with facial lipografting and the fillings using synthetic material, the nomenclature used in MD Codes® was used. Results: 54 facial lipografting were included (11% men / 88.88% women). The average age is 43.94 years (20 to 71, standard deviation 11.21). Follow-up average time was 155.61 days (range 7-543, standard deviation 156.05). There were no complications related to the method. The mean volume injected was 29.83ml (range 6-53.9, standard deviation 12.07). Conclusion: Autologous lipografting is a feasible procedure for certain cases of facial rejuvenation. The MD Codes® language can be used in parallel with the anatomical description of the injected regions in this study.

Resumo Objetivo Utilizar a Classificação de Dez Grupos de Robson (RTGC, na sigla em inglês) para analisar as taxas de cesárea (CS, na sigla em inglês) em uma maternidade hondurenha. Métodos Estudo de corte transversal em uma maternidade em Honduras. As mulheres internadas para o parto (agosto de 2017 a outubro de 2018) foram classificadas segundo a RTGC. Calculou-se a taxa de CS para cada grupo e a contribuição para a taxa geral de CS, com análises adicionais da indução do trabalho de parto entre as primíparas a termo (grupo 2a), multíparas a termo (grupo 4a) e casos com uma CS anterior (grupo 5.1). Resultados foram consideradas 4.356 mulheres, com uma taxa geral de CS de 26.1%. O Grupo 3 foi o maior grupo, com 38,.6% (1.682/4.356) dos casos; seguido pelo Grupo 1, com 30,8% (1.342/4.356), e pelo Grupo 5, com 10,3% (450/4,356). Considerando a contribuição para as taxas globais de CS por grupo, o Grupo 5 contribuiu com 30,4% (345/1,136) das CS, dos quais 286 (82.9%) tinha uma CS anterior, com um índice de CS > 70%. Os grupos 1 e 3, com 291/1.136 (26.6%) e 153/1.136 (13,5%), respectivamente, foram o segundo e terceiro maiores contribuintes para a taxa de CS. Os grupos 2a e 4a tiveram alto sucesso de indução, com baixas taxas de CS (18.4 e 16.9%, respectivamente). Conclusão O RTGC é uma ferramenta útil para avaliar as taxas de CS em diferentes unidades de saúde. Os grupos 5, 1 e 3 foram os principais contribuintes para a taxa de CS. Estes achados podem apoiar intervenções futuras para reduzir as CS desnecessárias, especialmente entre primíparas e em mulheres com uma CS anterior.

Abstract Objective To use the Robson Ten Group Classification (RTGC) to analyze cesarean section (CS) rates in a Honduran maternity hospital, with focus in groups that consider induction of labor. Methods Cross-sectional study. Women admitted for childbirth (August 2017 to October 2018) were classified according to the RTGC. The CS rate for each group and the contribution to the overall CS rate was calculated, with further analyses of the induction of labor among term primiparous (group 2a), term multiparous (group 4a), and cases with one previous CS (group 5.1). Results A total of 4,356 women were considered, with an overall CS rate of 26.1%. Group 3 was the largest group, with 38.6% (1,682/4,356) of the cases, followed by Group 1, with 30.8% (1,342/4,356), and Group 5, with 10.3% (450/4,356). Considering the contribution to overall CS rates per group, Group 5 contributed with 30.4% (345/1,136) of the CSs and within this group, 286/345 (82.9%) had 1 previous CS, with a CS rate > 70%. Groups 1 and 3, with 26.6% (291/1,136) and 13.5% (153/1,136), respectively, were the second and third larger contributors to the CS rate. Groups 2a and 4a had high induction success, with low CS rates (18.4 and 16.9%, respectively). Conclusion The RTGC is a useful tool to assess CS rates in different healthcare facilities. Groups 5, 1, and 3 were the main contributors to the CS rate, and groups 2 and 4 showed the impact and importance of induction of labor. These findings may support future interventions to reduce unnecessary CS, especially among primiparous and in women with previous CS.

Resumo Objetivo um desafio considerar o diagnóstico e o tratamento da pré-eclâmpsia (PE) em locais de baixa e média renda, onde a doença representa um grande problema de saúde pública. A placenta é a causa subjacente da doença, e as concentrações plasmáticas de fatores pró-angiogênicos e antiangiogênicos liberados pela placenta podem refletir os riscos de progressão da doença. Proteínas antiangiogênicas, como a tirosina quinase fms solúvel tipo 1 (sFlt-1), e pró-angiogênicas, como o fator de crescimento placentário (PlGF), estão direta e inversamente correlacionados com o início da doença, respectivamente. Métodos Revisão narrativa sobre o uso de biomarcadores (razão sFlt-1/PlGF) com sugestão de protocolo de orientação para uso clínico. Resultados Principais considerações sobre o uso de biomarcadores: a razão sFlt-1/PlGF é principalmente relevante para descartar PE entre 20 e 36 6/7 semanas em casos de suspeita de PE; entretanto, não deve substituir os exames de rotina para o diagnóstico de PE. A relação sFlt-1/PlGF não deve ser realizada após a confirmação do diagnóstico de PE (apenas em ambientes de pesquisa). Em mulheres com suspeita de PE, a razão sFlt-1/PlGF < 38 pode descartar o diagnóstico de PE por 1 semana (VPN = 99,3) e até 4 semanas (VPN = 94,3); A relação sFlt-1/PlGF > 38 pode auxiliar no manejo clínico. Em casos de hipertensão grave e/ou sintomas (eclâmpsia iminente), a hospitalização é imprescindível, independentemente do resultado da relação sFlt-1/PlGF. Conclusão O uso de biomarcadores pode auxiliar na tomada de decisões clínicas no manejo de casos suspeitos de PE, principalmente para afastar o diagnóstico da doença, evitando intervenções desnecessárias, tais como internações e prematuridade iatrogênica.

Abstract Objective It is a challenge to consider preeclampsia (PE) diagnosis and management in low and middle-income settings, where it represents a major public health concern. The placenta is the underlying cause of disease, and the plasma concentrations of proangiogenic and antiangiogenic factors released by the placenta can reflect the risks of disease progression. Antiangiogenic proteins, such as soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFlt-1), and proangiogenic, like placental growth factors (PlGF), are directly and inversely correlated with the disease onset, respectively. Methods Narrative review on the use of biomarkers (sFlt-1 to PlGF ratio) with a suggested guidance protocol. Results Key considerations on the use of biomarkers: the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio is mainly relevant to rule out PE between 20 and 36 6/7 weeks in cases of suspected PE; however, it should not replace the routine exams for the diagnosis of PE. The sFlt-1/PlGF ratio should not be performed after confirmed PE diagnosis (only in research settings). In women with suspected PE, sFlt-1/PlGF ratio < 38 can rule out the diagnosis of PE for 1 week (VPN = 99.3) and up to 4 weeks (VPN= 94.3); sFlt-1/PlGF ratio > 38 does not confirm the diagnosis of PE; however, it can assist clinical management. In cases of severe hypertension and/or symptoms (imminent eclampsia), hospitalization is imperative, regardless of the result of the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio. Conclusion The use of biomarkers can help support clinical decisions on the management of suspected PE cases, especially to rule out PE diagnosis, thus avoiding unnecessary interventions, especially hospitalizations and elective prematurity
