Impact of oxytocin discontinuation on fetal heart rate and uterine contractility: A pre‐specified ancillary analysis embedded within a randomized trial

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
The impact of oxytocin discontinuation at the onset of the active phase of labor on fetal heart rate (FHR) patterns and uterine activity; One hour following discontinuation, the mean FHR baseline slightly increased, FHR patterns improved—particularly with reduced decelerations and improved variability—and uterine activity decreased. Moreover, among the

Fetal macrosomia and its associated factors among pregnant women delivered at national referral hospital in Uganda, a case-control study.

PLoS ONE
BackgroundThe delivery of macrosomic newborns (newborns>4000gm) is increasing steadily worldwide and yet it is associated with many complications. The risk factors for fetal macrosomia include weight at first antenatal visit, previous delivery of a large

Externally validated risk prediction models for gestational diabetes mellitus: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
A systematic review of 33 gestational diabetes risk prediction models found fair discrimination but significant methodological weaknesses. With 69% of studies at high risk of bias, future research must adopt rigorous, scalable validation strategies to enhance clinical utility.

Active surveillance of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and adverse pregnancy outcomes: A register‐based cohort study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Active surveillance for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 is not associated with increased risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes compared to large loop excision of the transformation zone. Abstract Introduction Previous studies have suggested that human papillomavirus (HPV) and HPV‐related disease may be associated with increased risk of adverse

Early‐ vs. late‐onset gestational diabetes: Differential impact on maternal and neonatal outcomes

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Early‐onset gestational diabetes mellitus (diagnosed before 20 weeks) identifies a clinically higher‐risk phenotype than late‐onset GDM (24–28 weeks), with greater insulin requirement and higher adjusted risks of preeclampsia, cesarean delivery, preterm birth, and adverse neonatal outcomes.

Symphysis-fundal height measurements in predicting fetal macrosomia

International Journal of Medicine and Health Development, 2000
The predictive value of symphysio-funtfai height(SFH) measurements in fetal macrosomia was evaluated in a prospective cross-sectional study of 378 consecutive parturients at the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Enugu, Eastern Nigeria over a three

Three Methods of Fetal Weight Estimation Compared in Women With BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 at Term—A Prospective Observational Study

Birth, EarlyView.
Visual summary of a prospective study comparing sonographic, maternal, and clinical fetal‐weight estimation methods in women with BMI = 35 kg/m2 at term. The graphical abstract presents the study objective, design, accuracy measures, and the primary finding that maternal and sonographic estimations demonstrated similar accuracy and both exceeded that ...

Assessing the risk factors and establishing multivariable prediction models for singleton macrosomia

Frontiers in Medicine
IntroductionFetal macrosomia is related to adverse neonatal and maternal health outcomes. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the risk factors for macrosomia and establish multivariable prediction models to enable early identification, prevention, and ...

Exploring the Passive Second Stage of Labour and Related Perinatal Outcomes in a Physiological Cohort

Birth, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The passive second stage of labor has been increasingly recognized as a normal phase of labor. However, it remains poorly studied, especially in healthy women. This study aims to assess the passive phase in healthy laboring women and maternal and neonatal outcomes.
