First-trimester group B Streptococcus colonization of the cervix: a risk factor for maternal colonization at term?
First-trimester GBS colonization of the cervix may be as sensitive as antepartum GBS bacteriuria, an established risk factor, for predicting maternal GBS colonization at term.
Remitted recurrently depressed patients with sustained MUPS have a considerably increased risk of recurrence. Having sustained MUPS is not associated with either erythrocyte ω-3 or -6 FA-levels or 5-HTTLPR polymorphism. Recognition and reducing MUPS in an early state could prevent a (depressive) relapse.
