Is pathological fetal Doppler cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) associated with adverse delivery outcomes in pregnancies complicated by fetal growth restriction undergoing labor induction? A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 172, Issue 3, Page 1729-1734, March 2026.
Abstract Objective The optimal delivery approach for fetal growth restriction (FGR) with pathological cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) remains uncertain. This study evaluated the association between isolated pathological CPR (<5th percentile) and delivery outcomes, specifically the rate of cesarean delivery (CD) due to non‐reassuring fetal heart rate ...

Outpatient cervical ripening with Foley balloon or mifepristone: Insights into the time taken to reach the active phase of labor

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 172, Issue 2, Page 1009-1014, February 2026.
Abstract Objective To estimate the median time elapsed between the start of cervical ripening and the diagnosis of the active phase of labor, according to maternal and pregnancy characteristics, in low‐risk pregnancies submitted to outpatient cervical ripening with a Foley balloon catheter or oral mifepristone.

Comparison of dinoprostone slow-release vaginal insert with intracervical Foley catheter in cervical ripening for induction of labour: a prospective observational study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Background: Cervical ripening prior to induction of labour is crucial as unfavorable cervix with poor Bishop’s score can lead to caesarean section. Two most widely used methods are vaginal dinoprostone and intracervical Foley catheter.
