Chronic oxytocin administration stimulates the oxytocinergic system in children with autism

Nature Communications
Clinical efficacy of intranasal administration of oxytocin is increasingly explored in autism spectrum disorder, but to date, the biological effects of chronic administration regimes on endogenous oxytocinergic function are largely unknown.

Endogenous peripheral oxytocin measures can give insight into the dynamics of social relationships: a review

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014
The neuropeptide, oxytocin, receives increasing attention due to its role in stress regulation and promoting affiliative social behavior. Research across mammals points to a complex pattern whereby social context and individual differences moderate the ...

Vascular RAGE transports oxytocin into the brain to elicit its maternal bonding behaviour in mice

Communications Biology, 2019
Oxytocin sets the stage for childbirth by initiating uterine contractions, lactation and maternal bonding behaviours. Mice lacking secreted oxcytocin (Oxt−/−, Cd38−/−) or its receptor (Oxtr−/−) fail to nurture.

Trial of labor following cesarean among patients with oligohydramnios at term: A multicenter retrospective study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the maternal and neonatal outcomes of patients with oligohydramnios attempting a trial of labor after cesarean (TOLAC) versus those who underwent planned repeat cesarean delivery (PRCD). Methods We conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study of patients with a term singleton pregnancy ...

Success rate and obstetric outcomes of trial of labor after cesarean delivery—Decision‐tree analysis

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pregnant women with a previous cesarean delivery (CD) may opt for a trial of labor after cesarean (TOLAC) or elective repeat cesarean delivery (ERCD). This study aimed to evaluate the success rate, and maternal, and perinatal outcomes of TOLAC and to develop a predictive decision‐tree algorithm for successful TOLAC.
