Optimal timing for induction of labor in normotensive women: A retrospective cohort study
International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 365-371, April 2025.Abstract Objective Labor induction is offered to reduce the risk of stillbirth at late term (41+0 to 41+6) but earlier induction in normotensive singleton pregnancies is supported by weak evidence. The aim of the present study was to investigate the optimal timing for induction in normotensive women.

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Early detection of hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in neonates is critical. We conducted a pilot cohort study to determine the feasibility of collecting umbilical cord blood samples for neurofilament light (NfL) and to assess the association of NfL with non‐reassuring fetal status and other cord biomarkers. We aimed to address (
