Comparing the effect of STan (cardiotocographic electronic fetal monitoring (CTG) plus analysis of the ST segment of the fetal electrocardiogram) with CTG alone on emergency caesarean section rates: study protocol for the STan Australian Randomised controlled Trial (START)

Trials, 2019
Background Cardiotocography is almost ubiquitous in its use in intrapartum care. Although it has been demonstrated that there is some benefit from continuous intrapartum fetal monitoring using cardiotocography, there is also an increased risk of ...

Contraction frequency and acidemia at birth: A case–control study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
This case–control study shows an association by exposure level between contraction frequency during the final hour before birth and fetal acidemia. Effect sizes are similar regardless of oxytocin use. Contraction frequencies above both the conventional and revised thresholds are common, indicating poor positive predictive value.

Spontaneous uterine rupture after myomectomy in patients during pregnancy: Clinical cases in a single university center

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 173, Issue 1, Page 24-34, April 2026.
Abstract Uterine rupture is an infrequent yet sometimes fatal complication of a subsequent vaginal birth attempt following a previous uterine surgery. We have chosen to write about spontaneous uterine ruptures following myomectomy due to the scarcity of data on this subject, stemming from the limited number of reported cases.

Recurrent Hypoglycemia in Two Late‐Preterm Infants With Transitional Disorder of Glucose Mobilization—Case Series

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Timeline of events. ABSTRACT Great emphasis is placed upon addressing hyperinsulinism in at‐risk infants with recurrent hypoglycemia. We report two preterm infants with recurrent nonhyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia due to transient impairment of glucose mobilization, warranting diazoxide use.

The relationship between fetal distress and umbilical venous troponin T during labor [PDF]

Majallah-i Zanān, Māmā̓ī va Nāzā̓ī-i Īrān, 2019
Introduction: For many years, electrocardiogram have been used to diagnose fetal distress around childbirth. If the heart cells are damaged, troponin T is released. Few studies have been performed about the relationship between abnormality of fetal heart

Bibliometric Examination of Artificial Intelligence Studies on Infants

Infant and Child Development, Volume 35, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT The infancy period is a critical stage in which neurobiological, motor, cognitive and socio‐emotional development progresses most rapidly and sensitively. Therefore, artificial intelligence applications make an important contribution to the more sensitive monitoring of early developmental indicators related to infants.
