The role of fetal viability in perineal and anal sphincter injury: Insights from a large cohort study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Perineal injury is a common complication of vaginal delivery with implications for maternal morbidity. Injuries range from minor lacerations to severe obstetric anal sphincter injuries (OASI). The role of fetal viability in perineal outcomes remains unclear.

Intrapartum oral azithromycin for maternal infection prophylaxis and the risk of postpartum hemorrhage: A secondary analysis of the A‐PLUS trial

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A single oral dose of azithromycin (AZM) given during labor to women planning a vaginal delivery reduced maternal infections including sepsis, with a stronger effect in sub‐Saharan Africa than South Asia. Since maternal infection contributes to labor dysfunction and postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), we evaluated the effect of AZM on the ...

Evidence for the benefit of prenatal pelvimetry in breech presentation at term: A low intertuberous distance is associated with assisted head delivery and short‐term neonatal morbidity

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Guidelines on vaginal breech delivery have several restrictions concerning feto‐maternal parameters. To date, they neglect the impact of prenatal pelvimetry, especially of the intertuberous distance (ITD), in nulliparous women attempting vaginal breech birth.

Hematologic markers and machine learning in predicting placenta accreta: A case–control study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aims to enhance antenatal detection of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) and predict severe hemorrhage at delivery using machine learning by evaluating the association between antenatal hematologic index trends across trimesters, imaging markers, and patient history.

Impact of gestational weight gain on perineal injury and obstetric anal sphincter injury among underweight primiparous women

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the association between gestational weight gain (GWG) and perineal trauma in primiparous women with a pre‐pregnancy body mass index (BMI) <18.5. Methods This retrospective cohort study included primiparous women with singleton, vertex deliveries at a tertiary medical center (2012–2023).

Therapeutic role of nifedipine in threatened preterm labor: Current evidence and future perspectives

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preterm birth occurs in approximately 10% of all pregnancies, and is not only the leading cause of neonatal mortality but also a major contributor to short‐ and long‐term morbidities due to immaturity. Preterm birth has also been linked to an increased risk of maternal cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, making it a critical concern ...

International disparities in use of antenatal magnesium sulfate and antenatal steroids for the preterm baby

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Antenatal magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) and antenatal steroids (ANS) are evidence‐based interventions that reduce risk of cerebral palsy and respiratory complications in preterm babies. They are recommended in clinical guidelines internationally. However, we have limited information on how well they are being implemented.
