“…Hoedjes et al 11 found a poor postnatal HRQoL in women with morbidities such as severe preeclampsia. Prick et al 12 investigated the determinants of postnatal HRQoL following obstetric complications and concluded that gestational hypertension had a small negative effect on the SF-36's physical component score, but no effect was found for other complications such as postpartum hemorrhage or endometritis. We found a significant association between low antenatal and postnatal HRQoL scores.…”

“…Hoedjes et al's 11 study comparing the HRQoL in women with mild and severe preeclampsia showed no significant differences in HRQoL by mode of birth. On the contrary, a study by Prick et al 7,12 investigating the determinants of postnatal HRQoL after obstetric complications (gestational hypertension, intrauterine growth restriction, or postpartum hemorrhage) found that the mode of birth has a profound impact on the physical functioning dimension of the postnatal HRQoL.…”

“…which can affect the quality of a mother's life. Several studies were conducted for determining the quality of life for postnatal women have reported a moderate to low quality of life after birth [5]. It is the most critical, transition and life changing event which filled with strong emotions, physical changes, and changed relationships, assumptions and adjustments into the mother role [6].…”

Background: The postpartum period is attended by numerous variations in women's health. Aim: This study was aimed to assess the relationship between mode of birth and quality of life for women's health during the postpartum period. Methods: The study was conducted at the outpatient clinic of Belbeis Hospital, Belbeis City, Al Sharkia Governorate, Egypt. Study design: A descriptive study design was used in the current study. Study sample: A total of 400 women attended the outpatient clinic using a purposive sample. Data collection Tools: The data have been collected a structured interview questionnaire and a SF-36 form in order to assess the women`s life quality used a purposive sample method. The study carried out from May to June 2017. Results: The mean age of women was 27.5 ± 7.86 years and 26.3 ± 7.51 years of the caesarean and vaginal birth group, respectively. The mean total of SF-36 scores was higher among vaginal birth group compared to caesarean birth with statistically significant differences. Conclusion & Recommendation: According to the study results, the vaginal birth group had higher scores of SF-36 compared to caesarean delivery. Thus, vaginal birth is the safe choice for mothers and their family, if there were no indications of caesarean delivery.

“…Preterm birth caused by preeclampsia may result in bronchopulmonary dysplasia in children (Hansen, Barnés, Folkman, & McElrath, 2010). In addition, preeclampsia increases the risk of postpartum depression and reduces the quality of life in women (Blom et al, 2010;Prick et al, 2015). In developing countries, pre-eclampsia is the leading cause of maternal mortality, while in developed countries, enhanced diagnostic methods and earlier detection make pre-eclampsia less devastating (Ngoc et al, 2006).…”

Could circRNA be a new biomarker for pre‐eclampsia?

Pre‐eclampsia is a devastating complication of pregnancy which is characterized by hypertension and proteinuria in pregnant women. Pre‐eclampsia is important as it is the leading cause of death. Moreover, untreated pre‐eclampsia might lead to other lethal complications, for both fetus and mother. Pre‐eclampsia can also affect the quality of life in affected women. Despite a large number of risk factors for pre‐eclampsia, these risk factors are able to detect just 30% of women who are susceptible to pre‐eclampsia. Heterogeneous manifestations of pre‐eclampsia necessitate the discovery of potential biomarkers required for its early detection. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a type of RNA which are more abundant, specific, and highly organized compared with other types of RNA. Accordingly, circRNAs have been suggested as one of the potential biomarkers for different diseases. Recently, researchers have shown interest in the effects of circRNAs in pre‐eclampsia, although the current evidence is limited. The majority of obstetricians are probably not aware of circRNAs as a useful biomarker. Here, we aimed to summarize recent supporting evidence and assess the mechanisms by which circRNAs are involved in pre‐eclampsia.
