Predictors for intrapartum cesarean delivery after labor induction for suspected fetal growth restriction at term

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective In term pregnancies with suspected fetal growth restriction (FGR) undergoing induction of labor (IOL), predictors for intrapartum cesarean delivery (CD) remain unclear. We aimed to determine predictors for intrapartum CD in this population. Methods This study included a retrospective cohort of singleton pregnancies undergoing IOL at ≥

Maternal overweight and obesity during pregnancy and sex‐dependent dysregulation of the materno‐fetal stress axis

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Maternal obesity and excess gestational weight gain (GWG) are linked to adverse perinatal outcomes, potentially via disruption of the maternal–fetal stress axis. Placental HSD11B2 protects the fetus from excess glucocorticoids and may influence fetal programming during maternal metabolic stress.
