dc.description.abstract | Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is defined as having multiple pregnancy
losses from either biochemical or clinical factors, while recurrent
miscarriage (RM) is defined as having multiple successive pregnancy
losses in early gestation up to 20 weeks. In obstetric practice, pregnancy
loss is not an unusual case; 38% of pregnant women experienced
spontaneous abortion before (Sugiura-Ogasawara et al. 2013). Despite
this, it is estimated that one in 20 conceived females go through two
consecutive miscarriages and only 1% of the sufferers would see a third or
further miscarriages (De Groot et al. 2012; Ford and Schust 2009;
Sugiura-Ogasawara et al. 2013). In other words, human females complete
their pregnancy with embryo wastage; around 30% of the losses before
implantation, 30% before the sixth gestational week (biochemical
pregnancy loss), and 10–15% of clinical pregnancies up to 12 weeks of
gestation (Teklenburg et al. 2010; Arslan and Branch 2020).
RPL has several types of etiological causes (Ali et al. 2020). A history
of RPL physically and psychologically lays a burden on pregnant women.
This is why, screening for miscarriage risk factors is essential for the
patients having a history of RM. By means of communication to the fetus
through placental and decidual tissue in a proper and balanced way the
mother may expect delivery. Otherwise, the interrupted or disrupted
signals may lead to pregnancy failure (Rull et al. 2012; Grimstad and
Krieg 2016). Many factors induce RM including aberrations of parental
chromosomes, uterine malformations, infectious diseases, and endocrine
and autoimmune disorders; however, several of these remain unexplained
in about 50% of RM cases (Arias-Sosa et al. 2018; Ali et al. 2020; Liu et
al. 2020). Second to chromosomal and genetic abnormalities, the
underlying miscarriage cause is autoimmunity particularly that associated
with antiphospholipid antibodies. The functional defects in various T-cell
subsets in addition to the alteration of natural killer cell behavior as
presented in recent studies are in relation to the indefinite mechanisms by
which general autoimmunity predisposes to RM (Bansal et al. 2011). | tr |
