More Options for Prelabor Rupture of Membranes, A Bayesian Analysis [PDF]
An obstetric goal for a laboring mother is to achieve a vaginal delivery as it reduces the risks inherent in major abdominal surgery (i.e., a Cesarean section). Various medical interventions may be used by a physician to increase the likelihood of this occurring while minimizing maternal and fetal morbidity.

Use of What-if Scenarios to Help Explain Artificial Intelligence Models for Neonatal Health [PDF]
Early detection of intrapartum risk enables interventions to potentially prevent or mitigate adverse labor outcomes such as cerebral palsy. Currently, there is no accurate automated system to predict such events to assist with clinical decision-making.

Cesarean sections for high‐risk births: health, fertility, and labor market outcomes*
Abstract A cesarean section (C‐section) is common practice in complicated deliveries that otherwise carry risk of severe complications. However, C‐sections themselves carry risks, as do all major surgical procedures. In this paper, I examine the causal effects of C‐sections on child and maternal outcomes in a population of high‐risk deliveries, namely ...

PSFHS Challenge Report: Pubic Symphysis and Fetal Head Segmentation from Intrapartum Ultrasound Images [PDF]
Segmentation of the fetal and maternal structures, particularly intrapartum ultrasound imaging as advocated by the International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology (ISUOG) for monitoring labor progression, is a crucial first step for quantitative diagnosis and clinical decision-making.

Premature aging as a consequence of Mis-construction of tissues and organs during body development [PDF]
Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria syndrome, Werner syndrome, and Cockayne syndrome are three genetic disorders, in which the children have premature aging features. To understand the phenomenon of premature aging, the similarity of aging features in these syndromes to that in normal aging is investigated. Although these three syndromes have different genetic

ABSTRACT Cardiotocography (CTG), introduced in the 1960s, was initially expected to prevent hypoxia‐related deaths and neurological injuries. However, more than five decades later, evidence supporting the evidence of intrapartum CTG in preventing neonatal and long‐term childhood morbidity and mortality remains inconclusive.
