Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The implications of general conditions during pregnancy on possible complications for mother and fetus.
Pregnancy is a complex physiological process that affects all systems and organs. Physiological changes can involve any organ in the body, including the eye and visual system. A series of infections during pregnancy (rubella, genital herpes, parvovirus infection, chicken pox, etc.) can cause congenital defects characterized by loss of vision, hearing, heart malformations, mental retardation and cerebral palsy. Also, the exacerbation of some conditions during pregnancy such as diabetes and blood pressure can cause complications.
Prenatal diagnostic tests and monitoring of pre-existing general conditions can determine the early diagnosis of intrauterine infections, genetic anomalies and complications with a major impact on the quality of life of the mother and fetus.
Neonatal screening determines if a mother has an infection or other dangerous conditions for the fetus and discovers if the fetus has certain malformations.
