A novel approach to joint prediction of preeclampsia and delivery timing using semicompeting risks.

Published in American journal of obstetrics and gynecology

Preeclampsia is a pregnancy complication that contributes substantially to perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide.

As such, they are misaligned with typ...

Anatomic nomenclature and 3-dimensional regional model of the human ovary: call for a new paradigm.

Published in American journal of obstetrics and gynecology

The ovaries are the female gonads that are crucial for reproduction, steroid production, and overall health. Historically, the ovary was broadly divided into regions defined as the cortex, medulla, and hilum. This current nomenclature lacks specificity and fails to consider the significant anatomic variations in the ovary. Recent technological adva...
