Newest firstBackground Cannabis use during pregnancy is increasingly common and is associated with adverse health outcomes for pregnant individuals and their offspring. Identifying preconception factors that are associated with prenatal cannabis use is critical to inform early prevention and intervention. This study tested whether frequency of preconception cannabis use was associated with cannabis use during early pregnancy…
Open article record in new tab ↗Objective To assess first-trimester recruitment and retention of pregnant patients who regularly used cannabis, but not other substances, measured by willingness to participate in a research study, completion of self-administered electronic questionnaires, and willingness to provide urine samples during each trimester of pregnancy. We designed and launched a prospective feasibility study titled, Cannabis Legalizat…
Open article record in new tab ↗Plasma concentrations of N-arachidonyletholamine (AEA), N-oleoylethanolamide (OEA) and N-palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) increase at term and can predict when a woman is likely to go into labour. We hypothesised that increased plasma AEA concentrations in women in preterm and term labour might also be increased and have a function in the placenta at the end of pregnancy. Here we examined the expression of the N-acylet…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background/objectives Obesity in pregnancy associates with changes in the glucose-insulin axis. We hypothesized that these changes affect the maternal metabolome already in the first trimester of human pregnancy and, thus, aimed to identify these metabolites. Patients/methods We performed untargeted metabolomics (HPLC-MS/MS) on maternal serum (n = 181, gestational weeks 4+0-11+6). For further analysis, we included…
Background Endocannabinoid anandamide (AEA), progesterone (P4) and β-human chorionic gonadotrophin (β-hCG) are associated with the threatened miscarriage in the early stage. However, no study has investigated whether combing these three hormones could predict threatened miscarriage. Thus, we aim to establish machine learning models utilizing these three hormones to predict threatened miscarriage risk. Methods This…
