The Effect of Citral on Aquaporin 5 and Trpv4 Expressions and Uterine Contraction in Rat—An Alternative Mechanism [PDF]
Life, 2021 Aquaporins (AQPs) are expressed in the uterus, playing a physiological role during pregnancy. An osmotic pathway—through AQP5—may modify the transient potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) function and uterine contraction.

Enhancing uterine contraction detection through novel EHG signal processing: a pilot study leveraging the relationship between slow and fast wave components to improve signal quality and noise resilience [PDF]
Frontiers in PhysiologyUterine contractions, driven by complex electrical activities within the uterine smooth muscle cells, play a critical role in labor and delivery. Various techniques, including EHG and EMMI, have been developed to record and image uterine electrical ...

Does immediate skin‐to‐skin contact at caesarean sections promote uterine contraction and recovery of the maternal blood haemoglobin levels? A randomized clinical trial [PDF]
Nursing Open, 2023 Aim We analysed whether immediate skin‐to‐skin contact between the healthy newborn and the mother after a caesarean section has a modulatory role on postpartum haemorrhage and uterine contraction.

A flexible wearable system for uterine contraction monitoring and admission decision support [PDF]
Digital HealthBackground Uterine contraction is a meaningful indicator for labor onset and appropriate hospital admission. Inaccurate self-assessment may lead to premature admission, unnecessary interventions, and higher healthcare resource use. Traditional monitoring

Noninvasive electromyometrial imaging of human uterine maturation during term labor
Nature Communications, 2023 Preventing preterm birth and labor arrest requires safe and accurate uterine contraction monitoring. Here, the authors show that Electromyometrial Imaging (EMMI) can image 3D uterine contraction patterns dynamically in human labor, providing new insights
