Cord blood red cell concentrates for preterm neonate transfusion: Insights from the multicenter BORN trial

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The BORN trial suggested that using cord blood‐red blood cells (CB‐RBCs) to transfuse severely preterm neonates significantly improves clinical outcomes compared to standard adult donor RBCs (A‐RBC). Study Design and Methods The study illustrates CB‐RBC concentrate production and inventory management across nine CB banks ...

Neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio at admission helps to predict the need for blood transfusion after vaginal delivery

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 173, Issue 3, Page 1489-1495, June 2026.
Abstract Objective This study assesses the association between complete blood count (CBC) parameters, including the neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the platelet‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and predicts the need for postpartum packed red blood cell transfusion (pRBCT).

Integration of contraception provision in emergency obstetric and neonatal care: A scoping review

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 173, Issue 3, Page 1295-1307, June 2026.
Abstract Background Emergency obstetric and neonatal care (EmONC) provides a framework to assess the capacity of health systems and mitigate maternal mortality. Given the high unmet need for contraception, integrating contraception provision and EmONC services could improve maternal and newborn health outcomes.

Public Health Implications of High Cytomegalovirus Seroprevalence in Pregnancy: A Cross‐Sectional Study in Western Uganda

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Among immediate postpartum women in western Uganda, maternal CMV seroprevalence was high (81.2%) and was predominantly chronic or non‐primary infection. Older age, rural residence, lower education, and prior spontaneous abortion were associated with seropositivity, supporting targeted maternal CMV education and evaluation of context‐appropriate ...
