Trata-se de um estudo de coorte com 334 gestantes fazendo acompanhamento pré-natal no Hospital das Clínicas da UNICAMP, que aceitaram participar voluntariamente e tiveram um único exame periodontal realizado no dia da consulta pré-natal. Os dados foram coletados da anamnese, do exame clínico periodontal e de informações relativas à gestação, parto e puerpério. Os parâmetros clínicos periodontais foram: índice de placa, índice de sangramento gengival à sondagem, profundidade de sondagem, nível de inserção clínica periodontal e retração gengival. As gestantes foram divididas em dois grupos: as com periodontite moderada a grave (P2-P4), e as sem doença ou com doença periodontal leve (P0-P1), pela classificação do índice WS. Avaliaram-se também a idade, paridade, raça, escolaridade, estado civil, hábitos alimentares, índice de massa corpórea (IMC), número de consultas de pré-natal, fumo, uso de bebidas e drogas, uso de medicação, vaginose bacteriana e doenças sistêmicas. Inicialmente foi utilizada uma abordagem analítica de corte transversal para a identificação de fatores associados à ocorrência de doença periodontal na gestação. Depois utilizou-se uma abordagem de estudo de coorte propriamente dito, estimando-se o risco de ocorrência dos resultados perinatais desfavoráveis (parto pré-termo, recém-nascido de baixo peso, recém-nascido pequeno para a idade gestacional e amniorrexe prematura, variáveis dependentes principais do estudo) em função da condição periodontal. Foram analisadas as distribuições de freqüência das variáveis independentes pelas categorias de doença periodontal, estimando-se a Razão de Prevalência e seu IC95% para abordagem transversal. Foi então realizada a análise uni e multivariada para a estimativa do risco de ocorrência das variáveis perinatais desfavoráveis na abordagem de coorte, calculando-se a Razão de Risco e seu IC95% para cada uma delas. Foi estabelecido o nível de significância de 5%. A prevalência de periodontite moderada a grave nas 334 gestantes foi de 47%, e se associou significativamente com a idade gestacional mais avançada ao exame periodontal (17-24 semanas: RP 1,40, IC95% 1,01-1,94; e 25-32 semanas: RP 1,52, IC95% 1,10-2,08), com a idade materna entre 25 e 29 anos (RP 1,65, IC95% 1,02-2,68), com a obesidade (RP 1,38, IC95% 1,04-1,82) e com a presença de sangramento gengival (ORajustado 2,01 - IC95% 1,41-2,88). Foram coletados os dados do parto de 327 gestantes e, entre elas, a doença periodontal esteve associada a um maior risco de ocorrência de parto pré-termo (RR 3,47 IC95% 1,62-7,43), de RN de baixo peso (RR 2,93 IC95% 1,36-6,34) e de amniorrexe prematura (RR 2,48 IC95% 1,35-4,56) na análise multivariada. A prevalência de doença periodontal entre gestantes de baixo risco gestacional é alta e associada com a maior idade gestacional, obesidade e sangramento gengival. A doença periodontal foi um fator de risco para a ocorrência de parto pré-termo, RN de baixo peso e de amniorrexe prematura / Abstract: This study was aimed to evaluate the prevalence of periodontal disease in a sample population of low-risk pregnant women, the factors associated with it and its correlation with the occurrence of adverse perinatal outcomes, including preterm births, low birth weigth, small for gestational age babies and premature rupture of the membranes. This cohort study included 334 pregnant women under prenatal care at the Hospital das Clinicas of the University of Campinas, Brazil, who voluntarily accepted to participate and had one single periodontal examination performed in the same day of a prenatal visit. Data was collected from anamnesis, periodontal clinical exam, and from information regarding pregnancy, delivery and postpartum. The clinical periodontal parameters were: plaque index, bleeding on probing index, probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level and gingival recession. Pregnant women were divided into two groups: those with moderate-to-severe periodontitis (P2-P4) and those with no disease or only mild disease (P0-P1), according to the WS classification index. Age, parity, race/color, years of schooling, marital status, number of prenatal visits, dietary habits, BMI (body mass index), smoking habits, use of alcohol and drugs, use of medication and presence of systemic diseases d bacterial vaginosis were also evaluated. Initially a cross sectional analytic approach was used for identifying factors associated with the occurrence of periodontal disease during pregnancy. After that, a real cohort approach was used, with the estimate of the risk of adverse perinatal outcomes (preterm birth, low birth weight, small for gestational age baby and premature rupture of membranes, the main dependent variables of this study) according to the condition of periodontal disease. Distribution of independent variables within the two groups was analyzed by calculating prevalence ratios and their respective 95% confidence intervals for the cross sectional approach. Uni and multivariate analysis for the estimation of the risk of adverse perinatal outcomes were performed for the cohort approach. The Risk Ratior and its 95%CI were estimated for each outcome. The significance level assumed was 5%. The prevalence of moderate to severe periodontitis in 334 pregnant women was 47%, and it was significantly associated with more advanced gestational age at periodontal examination (17-24 weeks: PR 1.40, 95%CI 1.01-1.94; and 25-32 weeks: PR 1.52, 95%CI 1.10 ¿ 2.08), with maternal age between 25 - 29 years (PR 1.65, 95%CI 1.02 ¿ 2.68), with obesity (PR 1.38, 95%CI 1.04 ¿ 1.82) and with the presence of gingival bleeding (ORadjusted 2.01, 95%CI 1.41 ¿ 2.88). The data of 327 deliveries were collected and, among them, the periodontal disease was associated to a higher risk of preterm birth (RR 3.47 95%CI 1.62-7.43), of low birth weight (RR 2.93 95%CI 1.36-6.34) and of premature rupture of membranes (RR 2.48 95%CI 1.35-4.56) in the multivariate analysis. The prevalence of periodontal disease among low-risk pregnant women is high and it is associated with more advanced gestational age, obesity and gingival bleeding. Periodontal disease was a risk factor for the occurrence of preterm birth, low birth weight and premature rupture of membranes / Mestrado / Periodontia / Mestre em Clínica Odontológica

Die nicht-invasive Analyse der fetalen Herzratenvariabilität mittels abdominaler Elektrokardiographie stellt eine neue Methode zur Beurteilung des fetalen Zustandes dar. Die Herzratenvariabilität gilt hier als ein sensitives Maß der autonomen Regulation. Bereits mit Beginn der zweiten Schwangerschaftshälfte ist es möglich, über das mütterliche Abdomen ein fetales Elektrokardiogramm abzuleiten und einer Herzratenvariabilitätsanalyse zuzuführen. Das Untersuchungskollektiv dieser Arbeit umfasste Frauen mit frühem vorzeitigem Blasensprung als Modell einer pathologischen Alteration des fetalen Zustandes sowie Frauen mit normalen Schwangerschaften zwischen der 20. und 28. Schwangerschaftswoche. Die technische Umsetzung und Analyse der fetalen Herzratenvariabilität erfolgte in Kooperation mit dem Institut für Biomedizinische Technik der TU Dresden. Insgesamt wurden 25 Datensätze der Auswertung zugeführt. Eine Reifung des autonomen Nervensystems des Feten mit ansteigendem Gestationsalter konnte mittels der Herzratenvariabilitätsanalyse gezeigt werden. Zur Risikostratifizierung der Feten bei frühem vorzeitigem Blasensprung konnten bei der Betrachtung der Herzratenvariabilitätsparameter keine signifikanten Unterschiede zum Normalkollektiv erhoben werden. Die Analyse der Parameter erfolgte hierbei unabhängig von den fetalen Verhaltenszuständen. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass die nicht-invasive Analyse der Herzratenvariabilitätsanalyse methodisch und technisch in der Lage ist, den Fetalzustand und dessen Alterationen zu erfassen.

Pregnancy-related complications such as gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction, gestational diabetes mellitus, spontaneous preterm birth, and preterm premature rupture of membranes may have severe consequences for both the mother and the child. The development of reliable early screening methods for pregnancy-related complications has therefore been a long-term goal of obstetrics. New possibilities for prenatal diagnostics have opened with the discovery of circulating microRNAs in maternal plasma. MicroRNAs are short, noncoding, 21 to 23 nucleotides long, single-strand RNAs whose main function is to regulate gene expression. During pregnancy, both common and unique miRNAs are expressed by the placenta, amongst them the miRNAs of the C19MC cluster. Several C19MC miRNAs have been shown to display a different expression profile associated with certain pregnancy-related complications. This thesis identifies the plasma exosomal profiles of six C19MC miRNAs (miR-516-5p, miR-517-5p, miR-518b, miR-520a-5p, miR-520h, and miR-525-5p) in patients in their first trimester of gestation who later developed pregnancy-related complications, and compares them with profiles in patients with normal pregnancies.
