SUMMARY:Empowering Maternal Health through Collaborative Care
DESCRIPTION:According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\, the pregnancy-related mortality ratio was 33.2 per 100\,000 live births in 2021\, noting that more than 80% were preventable. Despite advances in medical care\, the United States remains one of the leading high-income countries for maternal morbidity and mortality\, particularly for pregnant women and infants from racial and ethnic minority groups. Black women are three to four times more likely to die a pregnancy-related death than white women. \nMaternal health issues also include maternal morbidity\, birth risks\, and infant outcomes. Black\, American Indian\, Alaska Native\, Native Hawaiian\, and other Pacific Islander women have higher rates of preterm birth and low birthweight and are more likely to receive delayed or no pregnancy-related care. \nThe health care ecosystem must leverage opportunities to identify\, expand\, and promote solutions to this public health crisis. Having a diverse care team that supports a woman’s values\, preferences\, health needs\, and goals while mitigating risks is key to improving health outcomes for pregnant populations. \nThe Society for Women’s Health Research (SWHR) hosted a public forum to highlight how different maternal health care professionals can be involved in pre-pregnancy\, perinatal\, and postpartum care\, underscoring opportunities to improve patient empowerment\, shared decision-making\, and access to care that elevates patient engagement and reduces adverse outcomes.

SUMMARY:Vaginal Microbiome: Implications for Women's Health (Women's Health Research Roundtable)
DESCRIPTION:The Women’s Health Research Roundtable is a webinar series hosted by the NIH Office of Research on Women’s Health (ORWH). This series elevates evidence-based research that explores how social\, economic\, racial\, and geographic factors influence health outcomes. The next session is titled “The Vaginal Microbiome: Implications for Women’s Health and Disease.” The session will feature presentations by Anuja Dokras\, M.D.\, MHCI\, Ph.D.\, and Mary Kimmel\, M.D.\, Ph.D. \nDr. Dokras will discuss the vaginal microbiome in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). She brings extensive research experience in translation medicine and clinical trials with a focus on understanding cardiometabolic risk and mental health comorbidities associated with PCOS. Dr. Kimmel will discuss the microbiome’s influence on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) and hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian (HPO) axes and will explore future directions to support maternal mental health through microbiome-informed strategies. She will also share findings from a study of pregnant women in North Carolina and Sweden that examined how gut microbiome diversity and function relate to depression and anxiety during pregnancy and the postpartum period.\nLearn More
