Preterm infants' pose estimation with spatio-temporal features [PDF]

, 2020
Objective: Preterm infants' limb monitoring in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) is of primary importance for assessing infants' health status and motor/cognitive development. Herein, we propose a new approach to preterm infants' limb pose estimation that features spatio-temporal information to detect and track limb joints from depth videos with ...

Human β-defensin-3 participates in intra-amniotic host defense in women with labor at term, spontaneous preterm labor and intact membranes, and preterm prelabor rupture of membranes

Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine, 2019
Objective: Human β-defensin-3 (HBD-3) has a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity, and activity and, therefore, plays a central role in host defense mechanisms against infection.

Cesarean section with operation on placental support as an adapted EXIT procedure for fetal thyroid goiter: A case report and literature review

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract The ex‐utero intrapartum treatment (EXIT) procedure is a specialized delivery strategy that extends utero–placental–fetal circulation to convert a potential neonatal emergency condition into a condition that is compatible with postnatal life.
