Special Issue on Intercurrent Disease in Pregnancy

Intercurrent Disease in Pregnancy is a disease that is not directly caused by the pregnancy, but may become worse or be a potential risk to the pregnancy. A major component of this risk can result from necessary use of drugs in pregnancy to manage the disease. In such circumstances, an extra medical care is needed for women who wish to continue with a pregnancy. To know the mechanism, causes and treatment of these intercurrent diseases may reduce the risk of pregnancy.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original researches and review articles on exploring intercurrent disease in pregnancy. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Endocrine disorders
• Hypercoagulability
• Infections
• Valvular heart disease
• Autoimmune disorders
• Use of drugs in pregnancy

Authors should read over the journal’s Authors’ Guidelines carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue – Intercurrent Disease in Pregnancy” should be chosen during your submission.
