Phase-rectified signal averaging method to predict perinatal outcome in infants with very preterm fetal growth restriction- a secondary analysis of TRUFFLE-trial [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Phase-rectified signal averaging, an innovative signal processing technique, can be used to investigate quasi-periodic oscillations in noisy, nonstationary signals that are obtained from fetal heart rate.

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) concentrations during the late first trimester are associated with fetal growth in a fetal sex-specific manner [PDF]
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a pregnancy-specific hormone that regulates placental development. hCG concentrations vary widely throughout gestation and differ based on fetal sex.

Stillbirth and intrauterine fetal death: contemporary demographic features of >1000 cases from an urban population [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Of 780 000 births annually in the UK, around 3300 are stillborn, a rate of approximately 4 per 1000 births. Traditional epidemiological associations are based on historic data.

Prenatal and early life influences on epigenetic age in children:a study of mother-offspring pairs from two cohort studies [PDF]
DNA methylation-based biomarkers of aging are highly correlated with actual age. Departures of methylation-estimated age from actual age can be used to define epigenetic measures of child development or age acceleration (AA) in adults.

Background Cardiometabolic risk factors among youth are rising. Epigenetic age acceleration, a biomarker for aging and disease-risk, has been associated with adiposity in children, but its association with other cardiometabolic risk markers remains ...

Can the Prechtl method for the qualitative assessment of general movements be used to predict neurodevelopmental outcome, at eighteen months to three years, of infants born preterm? [PDF]
Background: Preterm infants are more at risk of atypical neurodevelopment and diagnosis of impairment often occurs later in life. The Prechtl method for the qualitative assessment of general movements has been found to predict neurodevelopmental outcome ...

Context.— Assessment of placental villous maturation is among the most common tasks in perinatal pathology. However, the significance of abnormalities in morphology is unclear and interobserver variability is significant.
