The ED50 and ED95 of oxytocin infusion rate for maintaining uterine tone during elective caesarean delivery: a dose-finding study

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2019
Background The 90% effective dose (ED90) of oxytocin infusion has been previously estimated to be 16.2 IU h− 1. However, bolus administration of oxytocin prior to the infusion may decrease the infusion dose required. The aim of this study was to estimate

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 ...

Optimizing outcomes in intrauterine insemination: A narrative synthesis of two decades of clinical research (2000–2024)

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a widely used first‐line fertility treatment, yet its success rates vary considerably. This review synthesizes evidence from peer‐reviewed studies published between 2000 and 2024, including randomized controlled trials, cohort and case–control studies, as well as systematic and narrative reviews identified ...

Association between patient safety culture, adverse events, and essential practices during childbirth in six Brazilian maternity hospitals

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study examines whether hospitals with stronger patient safety culture more consistently follow essential birth practices and have fewer adverse outcomes for mothers and newborns and whether this evidence can guide maternity care priorities in patient safety policy.

Balloon catheter plus concurrent vaginal misoprostol versus vaginal misoprostol alone for cervical ripening in induction of labor: A systematic review and an individual participant data meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cervical ripening in labor induction using a combination of methods is gaining popularity, but the effectiveness and safety of this approach are not clear. The assessment of study trustworthiness has recently been raised for evidence synthesis.

Time from pre‐labor rupture of membrane at term to delivery in grand multiparous women

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The effect of parity on labor progression following term pre‐labor rupture of membranes (PROM) has been described, but detailed patterns among grand multiparous women remain unclear. Traditional labor models show accelerated labor with increasing parity, yet few studies have specifically examined PROM latency distributions or ...

Complement C3 mediates adolescent social isolation‐induced hippocampal synaptic deficits and sex‐specific emotional dysfunction

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Adolescent social isolation disrupts hippocampal function and exacerbates emotional symptoms, with sex‐specific patterns, as shown by human studies. In mice, social isolation decreased hippocampal synaptic density and calcium signaling, upregulated complement proteins, and activated complement‐mediated microglial synaptic phagocytosis.

Pawsitive Connections: Understanding How Informal Pet Interactions Relate to Daily Youth Functioning

Journal of Adolescence, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Human‐animal interaction (HAI) has been linked to well‐being across functional domains and throughout the lifespan. Limited research has explored specific types of informal HAIs with pets or the impact of HAI in daily life. Methods Over 2 weeks in 2021, caregivers of youth (N = 42; ages 6–17, M = 12.21; 50% male) reported daily on
