Much of the literature on clinical decision-making regarding the optimal route of delivery for periviable birth, 23 0/7-25 6/7 weeks gestation, has focused on neonatal risks. In fact, routine cesarean delivery at these early gestational ages has not been shown to improve neonatal mortality or neurological outcomes. Neonatal risks associated with th...

Dysregulated maternal systemic inflammatory response is a commonly accepted component in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia. Chronic inflammation then occurs characterized by oxidative stress, proinflammatory cytokine production, and abnormal T-cell function. Infection results in similar physiologic changes. The objective of this study was to examine...

To identify risk factors associated with neonatal intermediate or intensive care unit (NICU) stay ≥3 days among women with threatened late preterm birth (PTB). Secondary analysis of women with nonanomalous, singleton gestations enrolled in multicenter trial of betamethasone versus placebo for late PTB. Maternal and obstetric characteristics at time...

Puerperal infection remains a significant cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. Those infections occur more likely after cesarean delivery (CD). Prophylactic antibiotics are administered at the time of CD to prevent complications. In addition to intraoperative prophylaxis; prescription of antibiotics during hospital discharge to prevent surgic...

To identify pregestational maternal characteristics that are associated with an increased risk for preterm births (PTB) of assisted reproductive technology (ART) singleton pregnancies. We evaluated the Slovenian National Perinatal Information System (NPIS). We included all ART singletons born during the period 2006-2015. We compared births before a...

To examine the performance of the Fetal Medicine Foundation (FMF) 2012 predictive model and of isolated biophysical markers (uterine artery pulsatility index and mean arterial pressure) for small-for-gestational-age (SGA), in patients from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. For this cross-sectional study, SGA was diagnosed when a newborn presented birth weigh...

Epignathus is an extremely rare oral teratoma which leads to high mortality in the early neonatal period. Various theories have been put forward for the genesis of such a tumor, though none is completely convincing. A genetic basis is not well established for the tumor. Microdeletions/duplications, as well as single gene disorders, have been known ...

Perineal trauma at the time of vaginal delivery is common, and when the anal sphincter is included, these injuries can be associated with additional morbidity including incontinence, pelvic pain, and sexual dysfunction. The aim of this systematic review with meta-analysis was to evaluate whether a hands-on technique during vaginal delivery results ...

Lead as a toxic heavy metal can readily transfer through the placenta; this condition may increase the risk of lead toxicity for a developing fetus. Therefore, we undertook this study to evaluate the association between umbilical cord blood lead levels and the risk of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) occurrence. A cross-sectional study was do...
