Labor induction vs expectant management at 40 weeks: association with Cesarean delivery and intrapartum fetal compromise and role of maternal age and cerebroplacental ratio

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the clinical course of pregnancies reaching the estimated due date and to determine the relative contribution of maternal and fetal factors, particularly labor induction, fetal Doppler status and maternal age, to the risk of adverse outcome and Cesarean delivery (CD).

Imaging oxytocin and oxytocin receptor activation.

, 2014
(A) Co-localization of ChR2-EYFP and oxytocin in brainstem fibers within the DMNV is shown (scale bar represents 28 microns). 55.7+3.7% of ChR2-EYFP PVN fibers in the DMNV are positive for oxytocin.

Impact of a Structured Caesarean Reduction Strategy on Perinatal Outcomes: A Retrospective Ecological Time‐Trend Study

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the long‐term impact of a structured, multidisciplinary CS reduction strategy in a high‐complexity Italian hospital. Design Retrospective ecological time‐trend study. Setting Tertiary obstetric care Italian centre. Sample 28 577 deliveries, ≥ 22 weeks' gestation, from 2014 to 2024 were analysed.

Vaginal Misoprostol Compared to Vaginal Dinoprostone for Induction of Labour: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Induction of labour is a common intervention. The prostaglandin dinoprostone is often used, but there is increasing evidence that misoprostol may be more effective without compromising safety. This review compares the efficacy and safety of vaginal misoprostol and vaginal dinoprostone.

Added Value of Estimated Fetal Weight Growth Velocity to Doppler Evaluation for the Prediction of Perinatal Outcomes Among Foetuses With EFW < 10th Centile at Term: A Retrospective Cohort Study

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate whether estimated fetal weight (EFW) growth velocity (GV), assessed using interval‐specific standards, provides additional prediction beyond standard criteria for identifying adverse outcomes in term foetuses with EFW < 10th centile. Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting Tertiary perinatal centre. Population A cohort

Anal Incontinence in Primiparous Women With Second‐ to Fourth‐Degree Perineal Tears One Year After Vaginal Delivery: Development and Validation of a Multivariable Prediction Model

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To develop and validate a prediction model estimating the individual risk of anal incontinence 1 year postpartum following second‐, third‐ and fourth‐degree perineal tears. Design Development of a prognostic prediction model. Setting Data were retrieved from three Swedish health and quality registers.

Oxytocin mimetics

, 2016
Poor oral availability and susceptibility to reduction and protease degradation is a major hurdle in peptide drug development for peripheral or central nervous system candidates. In contrast, druggable receptors in the gut present an attractive niche for

Kaempferol Protects Intestinal Health in Chinese Forest Musk Deer Possibly by Regulating Intestinal Microbiota and Inhibiting the NF‐κB/NLRP3 Signaling Pathway

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Kaempferol modulates the tryptophan metabolism pathway by increasing the abundances of Christensenellaceae R7 group, Bacteroides, and Blautia and reducing that of Rikenellaceae RC9 gut group, thereby significantly increasing the levels of ILA and IAA. This process inhibits the activation of NF‐κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway, reduces pro‐inflammatory factor
