Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2214-2239, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

Association of novel intra‐cesarean post‐placental intrauterine device insertion techniques, and early ultrasound, with expulsion rates and strings visibility: A prospective exploratory study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 175, Issue 1, Page 226-232, October 2026.
Abstract Objective To assess an innovative technique of intra‐cesarean post‐placental insertion of the Copper T380A IUD (CPPIUD), and explore the role of predischarge ultrasound with replacement of low‐lying IUDs. Methods We conducted a prospective observational study at Princess Marina Hospital, Gaborone, Botswana, from May 31, 2023, to April 3, 2024.

Influence of maternal body mass index on the accuracy of clinical and sonographic fetal weight estimation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 175, Issue 1, Page 263-272, October 2026.
Abstract Objective Estimated fetal weight (EFW) is essential for managing pregnancy and delivery. Currently, two primary methods are used for EFW: Clinical and sonographic estimation. Both might be influenced by maternal habitus. Obesity has become a global epidemic; however, its effect on EFW and the accuracy of the two methods has yet to be ...
