Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy is associated with a number of adverse pregnancy outcomes, including preeclampsia, preterm birth, and stillbirth, especially among pregnant women with severe COVID-19. Several fetal complications such as early pregnancy loss, delivery of a premature fetus, preeclampsia, fetal death, vertical transmission, intrauterine growth retardation, and congenital structural anomalies in association with COVID-19 disease have been investigated.Тo review on the fetal adverse outcome that is likely to occur during COVID-19 disease. The fetal detrimental outcomes that have been widely studied in the literature include preterm birth, stillbirth, vertical transmission. The evidence in the literature supports that there is a higher rate of preterm birth and stillbirth in women who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 but their association with the disease is not completely clear. Furthermore, the emergence of other possible outcomes is not conclusively stated. Hence more studies are required to establish their association with COVID-19 disease to decrease and mitigate the risk of detrimental fetal outcomes through early interventions and preventive measures
