Residence Near Agricultural Crops at Birth and Risk of Adult Testicular Germ Cell Tumors: A French Nationwide Case–Control Study Using Historical Aerial GIS Data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
As the incidence of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) rises, prenatal exposure to agricultural pesticides may represent an important risk factor. Here, geographic information system‐based measures of farmland proximity at birth were used as a proxy for early‐life pesticide exposure in France, a major pesticide consumer.

Optimal timing for induction of labor in normotensive women: A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 365-371, April 2025.
Abstract Objective Labor induction is offered to reduce the risk of stillbirth at late term (41+0 to 41+6) but earlier induction in normotensive singleton pregnancies is supported by weak evidence. The aim of the present study was to investigate the optimal timing for induction in normotensive women.

International disparities in use of antenatal magnesium sulfate and antenatal steroids for the preterm baby

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Antenatal magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) and antenatal steroids (ANS) are evidence‐based interventions that reduce risk of cerebral palsy and respiratory complications in preterm babies. They are recommended in clinical guidelines internationally. However, we have limited information on how well they are being implemented.
