Impact of oxytocin discontinuation on fetal heart rate and uterine contractility: A pre‐specified ancillary analysis embedded within a randomized trial

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
The impact of oxytocin discontinuation at the onset of the active phase of labor on fetal heart rate (FHR) patterns and uterine activity; One hour following discontinuation, the mean FHR baseline slightly increased, FHR patterns improved—particularly with reduced decelerations and improved variability—and uterine activity decreased. Moreover, among the

Oral Misoprostol Versus Vaginal Dinoprostone for Labor Induction: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Research, Volume 52, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Pharmacologic cervical ripening is frequently used for labor induction, yet the comparative effectiveness, safety, and resource utilization of available agents remain uncertain. This review compared oral misoprostol with vaginal dinoprostone for labor induction in singleton pregnancies at ≥ 34 weeks' gestation.

A Predictive Model for Intrapartum Cesarean Delivery in Multiparous Women After Active Labor Onset

Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Research, Volume 52, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Although prediction models for cesarean delivery have been established for nulliparous women, few have been developed for multiparous women, particularly for predicting intrapartum cesarean delivery after the onset of active labor. This study aimed to develop and validate a risk prediction model for intrapartum cesarean delivery in ...
