The diagnostic accuracy of different fetal blood sample lactate cutoffs in labor, utilizing the StatStrip Xpress® lactate‐meter: A population‐based observational study

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
A fetal blood sample lactate cutoff of ≥5.2 mmol/L balances the need for a high sensitivity for adverse neonatal outcomes with an acceptable number of needed interventions. Abstract Introduction A recent study recommended 5.2 mmol/L as a cutoff for fetal blood sample (FBS) lactate in labor for the StatStrip Lactate®/Lactate Xpress® lactate meter.

Risk factors associated with progression from pre‐eclampsia to eclampsia: A prospective cohort study and population‐wide data analysis

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Younger maternal age and lower socioeconomic status emerged as key risk factors for progression from pre‐eclampsia to eclampsia in two low‐ and middle‐income countries (Uganda and Ecuador), challenging the traditional focus on disease severity alone.

Neurodevelopmental Outcomes of Very Low Birth Weight Infants Following Extrauterine Placental Perfusion: A Follow‐Up Study

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Extrauterine placental perfusion (EPP) may be a feasible cord clamping strategy in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants to support neonatal transition. However, the impact of EPP on neurodevelopment remains unclear. The study aimed to compare the effects of EPP with time‐based delayed cord clamping (DCC) on neurodevelopmental outcomes ...
