Antenatal Corticosteroid Administration and Childhood Respiratory Morbidity: A Regression Discontinuity Study

open access: yesBJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, Volume 133, Issue 2, Page 263-271, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine if routine administration of antenatal corticosteroids affects the risk of infant lower respiratory tract infection and/or childhood asthma. Design Linked population‐based cohort analysed using a regression discontinuity design, which better controls for confounding than standard observational studies.

Economic Impact of Severe Early‐Onset Foetal Growth Restriction: A Multicentre Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesBJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, Volume 133, Issue 1, Page 61-70, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Foetal growth restriction (FGR) affects 10% of pregnancies, contributing to 30% of stillbirths. Current management of early‐onset FGR (< 32 + 0 weeks' gestation) delivers the foetus before stillbirth or irreversible organ damage. The resulting preterm births create additional risks independent of FGR.

Multiple Chronic Conditions Before Pregnancy and Risk of Adverse Maternal Health Outcomes: Population‐Based Cohort Study

open access: yesBJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, Volume 133, Issue 1, Page 142-153, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To assess the risks of perinatal emergency department (ED) use, hospitalisation and severe maternal morbidity or mortality (SMM‐M) associated with preconception MCC, according to the number of chronic conditions, complex MCC and co‐occurring cardiometabolic conditions. Design Population‐based cohort study.

Association between induction of labor and birth experience: A national population‐based study

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 1, Page 76-86, January 2026.
Our findings support that the risk of negative birth experience is increased in case of induction of labor compared to spontaneous onset of labor. These findings underline the need for appropriate antenatal information, shared decision making and better postpartum follow‐up.

Predictive factors for emergency cervical cerclage efficacy in singleton and twin pregnancies: A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 1, Page 105-116, January 2026.
Emergency cerclage is associated with high offspring survival and generally comparable outcomes in both singleton and twin pregnancies. Its efficacy is influenced by several preoperative clinical factors, with gestational age at placement and the presence of prolapsed membranes emerging as the strongest predictors of delivery before 28 weeks.
