    Abstract Objectives: It is well known that twin pregnancies confer a high degree of adverse perinatal outcomes. Fetal growth restriction, preterm labor/delivery, and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are among the causal etiologies associated. Hematologic parameters, specifically, the neutrophil:lymphocyte ratio (NLR), the platelet:lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and some of the routine complete blood cell count components denote a peculiar inflammatory and immunologic profile and have been used as clinical markers for specific obstetric syndromes. To our knowledge, no study has ever evaluated NLR/PLR in twins as a distinct population from singletons. Our primary objective was to analyze NLR/PLR in twins compared with singletons. Our secondary objective was to compare white blood cells, neutrophils, lymphocytes, and platelets between twins and singletons.
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective case-control study comparing NLR/PLR markers in twin gestations (dichorionic/diamniotic and monochorionic/dichorionic) versus singleton pregnancies, from January 2019 to April 2020. We excluded pregnancies with potential confounding factors such as human immunodeficiency virus, chronic hypertension, smoking, pregestational diabetes mellitus, or cases with miscarriage/intrauterine fetal demise. We included twin pregnancies (two fetuses) as cases and singletons as controls.
    Results: We recruited 29 twins and 29 singletons, matched for age, body mass index, and parity. NLR was statistically significantly higher in the first trimester in twins compared with singletons (3.3 vs 2.7,
    Conclusions: We speculate that a decrease in NLR from the first to the second trimester and a decrease in platelet in the second trimester reflect both the physiologic inflammatory/immune reaction of early pregnancy and denote a vital response for the development of normal placentation in twin gestations.

    Abstract Objective: To analyze the predictive value of neutrophils, lymphocytes, platelets, neutrophils to lymphocytes ratio (NLR), platelets to lymphocytes ratio (PLR) in identifying the occurrence of post-embolization syndrome (PES) after uterine artery embolization (UAE).
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational study in a single tertiary care center located in New York City during period of November 2014 - December 2018, for patients who underwent UAE. PES was defined as the occurrence of pelvic pain, nausea or fever within one week after the procedure.
    Results: We enrolled 62 patients: 12 of them had PES and 50 served as controls. Platelets were statistically significantly higher in patients with PES (p=0.036). Specifically, a platelet count greater than 336×10
    Conclusion: Patients with a preprocedural platelet count less than 336×10

    Abstract: Objective: To describe the distribution of abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) type according to the polyp (AUB-P); adenomyosis (AUB-A); leiomyoma (AUB-L); malignancy and hyperplasia (AUB-M); coagulopathy (AUB-C); ovulatory dysfunction (AUB-O); endometrial ( ...

    Abstract Objective: To describe the distribution of abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) type according to the polyp (AUB-P); adenomyosis (AUB-A); leiomyoma (AUB-L); malignancy and hyperplasia (AUB-M); coagulopathy (AUB-C); ovulatory dysfunction (AUB-O); endometrial (AUB-E); iatrogenic (AUB-I); and not yet classified International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics classification system in a medically underserved American inner-city population. Our secondary objective was to find an association between risk factors and type of AUB.
    Material and methods: We conducted a descriptive cross-sectional analysis at our outpatient women’s health clinic located in the Bronx, New York City, from November 2016 to December 2019.
    Results: Among 390 patients, the most common AUB type was AUB-L (n=185, 47.4%), followed AUB-P (n=100, 25.6%), AUB-A (n=55, 14.1%), AUB-O (n=19, 4.9%), AUB-M (n=15, 3.8%), AUB-E (n=14, 3.6%) and AUB-I (n=2, 0.5%). Race was distributed as follows: Hispanic (68.2%), Black (25.9%), Caucasian (3.3%), and Asian (2.1%). Comorbidities included hypertension (36.4%), diabetes (15.6%), and thyroid disease (6.9%). The median age at diagnosis was significantly higher in AUB-M (59 years old, p<0.001), AUB-P (52.5 years old, p<0.001), AUB-E (51.5 years old, p=0.001) compared to AUB-L (46 years old). The median body mass index (BMI) was significantly higher in AUB-E (34.2 kg/m
    Conclusion: In an American population of medically underserved patients, the most common cause of AUB was leiomyoma and the most common race was Hispanic. Women with AUB-L were younger, with lower BMI, and with fewer cases of hypertension and DM when compared to other types of AUB.

    Abstract Background: To analyze the predictive value of the preoperative complete blood count components on the occurrence of surgical site infection (SSI) after elective cesarean section.
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective case control study in a tertiary care hospital located in New York City during the period of November 1, 2018, to October 30, 2020. We included patients who developed SSI after elective cesarean section as cases and patients who did not develop SSI as controls. We tested the ability of neutrophil, lymphocyte, platelet, hemoglobin, hematocrit, total white blood cells, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, hemoglobin to platelet ratio, platelet to lymphocyte ratio, platelet to neutrophil ratio, platelet to hemoglobin ratio and neutrophil to hemoglobin ratio to identify the occurrence of SSI after cesarean section.
    Results: We compared ten cases and 20 controls. The median lymphocyte and lymphocyte to hemoglobin ratio were statistically significantly higher in cases compared to controls (P=0.049 and P=0.04, respectively). A lymphocyte value higher than 1.5 x10
    Conclusions: The preoperative lymphocyte and lymphocyte to hemoglobin ratio should be incorporated into patient counseling and preoperative algorithms to identify patients who will develop SSI. The biological mechanisms involved remain to be investigated and our data should be confirmed by further and larger studies.

    Abstract Ectopic localization of molar pregnancy is rare from review of literature. To date, only 132 cases have been reported. The identification of molar pregnancies in this setting is critical given their malignant potential and post-surgical management. We present a case of tubal hydatiform molar pregnancy with features suggestive of partial mole, detailing the patient’s initial presentation, explorative surgical evaluation, and finally the revelation of diagnosis based upon pathological determination. It is essential for providers to not only be informed of an unusual pathology but of the importance and value of histological examination of tubal specimens post-surgery with the pertinence to diagnose cases of molar pregnancy for prompt and appropriate post-operative surveillance.

    Abstract West Nile Virus (WNV), an RNA arbovirus and member of the Japanese encephalitis virus antigenic complex, causes a wide range of clinical symptoms, from asymptomatic to encephalitis and meningitis. Nearly all human infections of WNV are due to mosquito bites with birds being the primary amplifying hosts. Advanced age is the most important risk factor for neurological disease leading most often to poor prognosis in those afflicted. We report a case of WNV meningoencephalitis in a 93-year-old Caucasian male who presented with fever of unknown origin (FUO) and nuchal rigidity that rapidly decompensated within 24 h to a persistent altered mental state during inpatient stay. The patient's ELISA antibody titers confirmed pathogenesis of disease by WNV; he given supportive measures and advanced to an excellent recovery. In regard to the approach of FUO, it is important to remain impartial yet insightful to all elements when determining pathogenesis in atypical presentation.
