Evaluating predictive values of umbilical cord arterial lactate for adverse newborn outcomes among term‐births in northern Uganda: A cross sectional analytical study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 408-420, April 2025.
Abstract Objective Birth asphyxia is one of the leading causes of death for neonates worldwide. Lack of an objective cost effective test to predict poor newborn outcomes at birth affects the ability to respond appropriately. This study determined predictive values of umbilical cord arterial lactate in relation to adverse neonatal outcomes. Methods This

Spontaneous preterm birth: prevention, management and outcome

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 2000
Preterm birth (birth before 37 completed weeks of pregnancy) is a major cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Strategies to prevent and adequately treat preterm labour, in order to postpone birth and to identify risk factors for neonatal damage due to preterm birth, have to be developed by obstetricians and neonatologists to improve perinatal ...

Adverse childhood experiences are associated with spontaneous preterm birth: A case-control study

, 2015
More than 1 in 10 infants are born prematurely worldwide, making preterm birth the leading cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity. Chronic maternal stress is increasingly recognized as one of the contributing risk factors for preterm birth, yet its ...

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.

Predicting preeclampsia from a history of preterm birth.

PLoS ONE, 2017
ObjectiveTo assess whether women with a history of preterm birth, independent on the presence of prelabour rupture of the membranes (PROM) and growth deviation of the newborn, are more likely to develop preeclampsia with preterm or preterm birth in a ...

Knowledge Mapping for Prediction of Spontaneous Preterm Birth

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology
Abstract Background Preterm birth (PTB) before 37 weeks gestation, especially spontaneous premature birth (sPTB), poses significant global health challenges, with rising rates linked to advanced and multiple pregnancies. Despite efforts to understand sPTB and biomarkers like cervical length and fetal fibronectin, accurate prediction is still ...

A cross‐sectional study of caesarean deliveries performed by medical doctors and associate clinicians in nine district and regional hospitals in Sierra Leone using the Robson Ten Group Classification System

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Maternal and neonatal mortality remain high in Sierra Leone despite significant decline in the last decade. The aim of the present study was to evaluate obstetric care delivery using the Robson Ten Group Classification System (TGCS), focusing on caesarean delivery (CD) and task‐sharing.

Macrophages exert homeostatic actions in pregnancy to protect against preterm birth and fetal inflammatory injury

JCI Insight, 2021
Macrophages are commonly thought to contribute to the pathophysiology of preterm labor by amplifying inflammation — but a protective role has not previously been considered to our knowledge. We hypothesized that given their antiinflammatory capability in

Rare vasculitis types and obstetric and neonatal outcomes – A population‐based study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Vasculitis is an infrequent pathology among reproductive‐aged women. While data exists regarding pregnancy outcomes in the more common vasculitis subtypes, data is limited regarding these outcomes in rare vasculitis subtypes. We aimed to compare pregnancy and perinatal outcomes between women who suffered from rare types of vasculitis
