Cervical Ripening Balloon as a Method of Preinduction – One Center Study

open access: yesActa Clinica Croatica, 2018
Cervical ripening can be promoted in many ways, but mechanical methods are among the oldest. Like all other methods, this one also has its pros and cons. Disadvantages compared to pharmacological methods include some maternal discomfort upon manipulation

A Peripheral Immune Signature of Labor Induction

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Approximately 1 in 4 pregnant women in the United States undergo labor induction. The onset and establishment of labor, particularly induced labor, is a complex and dynamic process influenced by multiple endocrine, inflammatory, and mechanical factors as

Induced innovation and relavtive factor share [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We build up an induced innovation model based on Popp's article in AER, 2002. His model measured the effect of energy prices on energy-efficient innovations. Using the relative factor shares of energy and labor instead of the energy prices per se, we are

Comparison of labor duration of induced labor with dinoprostone insert vs spontaneous labor

open access: yesGinekologia Polska, 2023
Labor induction is one of the most common procedures in modern obstetrics. One in five pregnant women and 30-40% of women delivering vaginally undergo this procedure. If the cervical status is unfavorable, a ripening process is used prior to induction to shorten the duration of oxytocin administration and maximize the possibility of vaginal birth.

High‐Resolution and Real‐Time In Situ Generation of Cellular Spheroids by Laser‐Assisted Bioprinting for Guided Microvascularization

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Micro‐injection laser‐assisted bioprinting enables ultrafast and precise patterning of small endothelial cell spheroids by injecting a highly concentrated single‐cell suspension into GelMA/ColMA hydrogels. In co‐culture with fibroblasts, controlled pre‐vasculogenic network formation is obtained at microscale resolution.
