Preterm meconium‐stained amniotic fluid: A red flag for infection and adverse perinatal outcomes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Meconium‐stained amniotic fluid (MSAF) is uncommon in preterm deliveries and raises concerns about maternal and neonatal infectious risks. We aimed to evaluate maternal, perinatal, and microbiological outcomes in preterm deliveries complicated by MSAF compared to clear amniotic fluid (AF) and to assess outcomes in preterm versus term

Fasting plasma glucose performs better than glycated hemoglobin and glycated albumin for diagnosing gestational diabetes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Universal screening for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) using the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) has been recommended. In resource‐poor environments, OGTTs are only administered to high‐risk cases. In countries such as South Africa, where female obesity is common, this translates into high numbers of tests.

Is pathological fetal Doppler cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) associated with adverse delivery outcomes in pregnancies complicated by fetal growth restriction undergoing labor induction? A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The optimal delivery approach for fetal growth restriction (FGR) with pathological cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) remains uncertain. This study evaluated the association between isolated pathological CPR (<5th percentile) and delivery outcomes, specifically the rate of cesarean delivery (CD) due to non‐reassuring fetal heart rate ...
