Evaluating predictive values of umbilical cord arterial lactate for adverse newborn outcomes among term‐births in northern Uganda: A cross sectional analytical study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 408-420, April 2025.
Abstract Objective Birth asphyxia is one of the leading causes of death for neonates worldwide.
