Women impregnated by sick men likely to have miscarriage, stillbirth — Study

Punch Newspapers Sections Tessy Igomu Over a quarter of pregnancies might end up as ectopic, in miscarriage or stillbirth if the father-to-be is unhealthy and has three or more medical conditions like obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure or high cholesterol levels, a study has revealed. The researchers emphasised that pre-conception counselling should not forget the father, as his health may have an important impact on the pregnancy outcome. The study, published in Human Reproduction, a peer-reviewed journal, was carried out by researchers from Stanford University School of Medicine, California, United States. According to the study, which involved nearly a million pregnancies between 2009 and 2016 in the US, if a father was diagnosed with metabolic syndrome that includes the listed medical conditions, there was an increased risk of the mother losing the pregnancy.

COVID-19 severity affected by proportion of antibodies targeting crucial viral protein

 E-Mail COVID-19 antibodies preferentially target a different part of the virus in mild cases of COVID-19 than they do in severe cases, and wane significantly within several months of infection, according to a new study by researchers at Stanford Medicine. The findings identify new links between the course of the disease and a patient s immune response. They also raise concerns about whether people can be re-infected, whether antibody tests to detect prior infection may underestimate the breadth of the pandemic and whether vaccinations may need to be repeated at regular intervals to maintain a protective immune response. This is one of the most comprehensive studies to date of the antibody immune response to SARS-CoV-2 in people across the entire spectrum of disease severity, from asymptomatic to fatal, said Scott Boyd, MD, PhD, associate professor of pathology. We assessed multiple time points and sample types, and also analyzed levels of viral RNA in patient nasopharyngeal
