Trends in labor induction indications: A 20‐year population‐based study
The increase in induction was largely explained by an increase in conditions indicating labor induction (i.e hypertensive disorders, gestational diabetes and post‐term pregnancy). About one in ten inductions were not explained by a medical diagnosis.

Abstract Objective To evaluate whether the results of a previous study that showed a decrease in blood loss and transfusions with a multidisciplinary approach, including a fixed team when delivering women diagnosed with placenta accreta spectrum at Sahlgrenska University Hospital, remained low throughout time, and to investigate hospital stay and ...

In Silico Modeling for Ex Vivo Placental Transfer of Morphine
Abstract Morphine may be administered in pregnant women as an analgesic agent. The transplacental pharmacokinetics (PK) of morphine varies during pregnancy because of physiological and metabolic changes. In this work, we use a multi‐compartment model to simulate ex vivo human placental transfer studies of morphine. The computational model is based on a

Case series of severe fetal hemolysis in Rh-C-negative mother
Anti-Rh(c) antibody is the third most common cause of severe hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). The widespread use of anti-D immunoglobulin has led to arelative increase in the importance of non-RhD isoimmunization as a cause of HDFN. The

Haemolytic disease of the newborn due to multiple maternal antibodies [PDF]
Haemolytic disease of the foetus and newborn (HDFN) is a condition in which the lifespan of an infant’s red blood cells (RBCs) is shortened by the action of specific maternal immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody.

Abstract Haemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) can be associated with significant morbidity. Prompt treatment with intensive phototherapy (PT) and exchange transfusions (ETs) can dramatically improve outcomes. ET is invasive and associated with risks. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) may be an alternative therapy to prevent use of ET.

Fetal‐placental antigens and the maternal immune system: Reproductive immunology comes of age*
Abstract Reproductive physiology and immunology as scientific disciplines each have rich, largely independent histories. The physicians and philosophers of ancient Greece made remarkable observations and inferences to explain regeneration as well as illness and immunity.

The association of fetal hydrops with maternal edema should prompt the suspicion of mirror syndrome. In the consideration of fetal hydrops, it is important to include immunohematological studies that rule out the presence of rare antibodies. Abstract We present a rare case of mirror syndrome due to anti‐Kpa antibodies, which can be difficult to ...

The transplacental transfer of maternal antibodies to the fetus is a critical mechanism for infant protection and perinatal disease. Hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) is a representative fetal disease caused by transplacental transfer of maternal IgG antibodies. However, it is unclear whether placental‐related miRNAs are expressed in Rh‐
