Did you know that pregnant people with #antiphospholipidsyndrome (APS) have an increased risk of adverse maternal & fetal outcomes? (1/4)
APS is characterized by #thrombosis and/or obstetric morbidity in the presence of #antiphospholipid antibodies. For pregnant people, this means increased likelihood of severe #preeclampsia, preterm birth, & #neonatalmortality. (2/4) 
Studies show that complement activity plays a key role in aPL-mediated #thrombosis & obstetric complications. And fortunately, complement inhibitors, like #eculizumab, offer promise of improved outcomes for pregnant people living with APS. (3/4)

This is just so silly. In the 19th century, there was a panic in the medical profession (and among social commentators) about women becoming ill with neurological and "nervous" conditions because they were overworking their brains/nerves, which were naturally weaker than men's.
This “fact” was used to bolster the argument in favor of stopping women's formal education after age 16 and most certainly not letting them enroll in university.
