Prenatal vitamin D levels and postpartum hemorrhage in a rural Alaska cohort
Abstract Objective To examine the relationship between prenatal vitamin D serum levels and postpartum bleeding. Methods We conducted a retrospective electronic health record cohort study of pregnant Alaska Native and American Indian (ANAI) people in southwestern Alaska who had at least one prenatal vitamin D level measurement recorded and had a vaginal

Abstract Objective The optimal delivery approach for fetal growth restriction (FGR) with pathological cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) remains uncertain. This study evaluated the association between isolated pathological CPR (<5th percentile) and delivery outcomes, specifically the rate of cesarean delivery (CD) due to non‐reassuring fetal heart rate ...

Oxytocin receptor is regulated by Peg3
Mouse Peg3 encodes a DNA-binding protein involved in the milk letdown process. In the current study, we tested whether PEG3 controls the expression of the oxytocin receptor gene. According to the results, PEG3 directly binds to a genomic region within the 3rd exon of Oxtr, which contains a DNA-binding motif for PEG3.
