Abstract
Purpose of review: This article will review the current understanding of the immunologic changes that occur during pregnancy. It will discuss the impact of pregnancy on the disease activity of autoimmune or inflammatory rheumatic diseases (AIRD). Lastly, it will highlight the most recent data on pre-conception and pregnancy management practices that can improve pregnancy outcomes in autoimmune patients.
Recent findings: Pregnancy is an immunologically complex and dynamic state that may affect the activity of AIRDs, with more patients having active disease during pregnancy than previously thought. Uncontrolled inflammatory diseases are associated with poor pregnancy outcomes such as preeclampsia, small for gestational age infants, and prematurity. Pre-conception counseling and early pregnancy planning discussions can help ensure optimal disease control and medication management prior to attempting conception. Adequate control of AIRDs on pregnancy-compatible medications during the pre-conception, pregnancy, and postpartum periods is required for optimal pregnancy outcomes.
期刊介绍：
The aim of Current Allergy and Asthma Reports is to systematically provide the views of highly selected experts on current advances in the fields of allergy and asthma and highlight the most important papers recently published. All reviews are intended to facilitate the understanding of new advances in science for better diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of allergy and asthma.
We accomplish this aim by appointing international experts in major subject areas across the discipline to review select topics emphasizing recent developments and highlighting important new papers and emerging concepts. We also provide commentaries from well-known figures in the field, and an Editorial Board of internationally diverse members suggests topics of special interest to their country/region and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Over a one- to two-year period, readers are updated on all the major advances in allergy and asthma.
