Trends and risk of recurrent preterm birth in pregnancy cohorts in rural Bangladesh, 1990–2019
Introduction A history of preterm birth reportedly increases the risk of subsequent preterm birth. This association has primarily been studied in high-income countries and not in low-income settings in transition with rapidly descending preterm birth ...

Genomics of Preterm Birth [PDF]
The molecular mechanisms controlling human birth timing at term, or resulting in preterm birth, have been the focus of considerable investigation, but limited insights have been gained over the past 50 years. In part, these processes have remained elusive because of divergence in reproductive strategies and physiology shown by model organisms, making ...

Migraine and preterm birth [PDF]
To investigate whether maternal migraine was associated with preterm birth.Case-control sample within a population-based study of risk factors for cerebral palsy (CP). Infants without CP were matched for gestational age with those with CP. Maternal migraine was self-identified at first prenatal visit, most in the first trimester.Infants without CP born

Predicting preterm birth using machine learning techniques in oral microbiome
Preterm birth prediction is essential for improving neonatal outcomes. While many machine learning techniques have been applied to predict preterm birth using health records, inflammatory markers, and vaginal microbiome data, the role of prenatal oral ...
