THE UTEROCERVICAL ANGLE AS AN ADDITIONAL ULTRASOUND MARKER FOR PREDICTION OF PRETERM BIRTH [PDF]
Aim. The study was conducted to determine the informative significance of the uterocervical angle for prediction of preterm birth using the ultrasound cervicometry at 16-20 weeks of pregnancy.Materials and methods.

Assessment of novel sonographic and biochemical tools for spontaneous preterm birth prediction in asymptomatic twin pregnancies [PDF]
Introduction Prematurity is a major global health issue. Twin pregnancies are a group at especially high risk of preterm birth. Sonographic mid‐trimester cervical length has limited accuracy in predicting preterm birth.

Comparative Assessment of Uterocervical Angle Using Transvaginal, Transabdominal, and Transperineal Ultrasonography Between 16 and 24 Weeks of Gestation [PDF]
Objectives: To assess the correlation and agreement of uterocervical angle (UCA) measurements obtained via transabdominal (TAUS), transperineal (TPUS), and transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) between 16 and 24 weeks of gestation.

Uterocervical Angle Measurement Improves Prediction of Preterm Birth in Twin Gestation [PDF]
Objective Twin pregnancies are associated with an increased risk of spontaneous preterm birth. Our objective was to compare the performance of uterocervical angle to cervical length as predictors of spontaneous preterm birth in this population.

Predictive value of uterocervical angle combined with phosphorylated insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 testing for preterm delivery and adverse neonatal outcomesAJOG Global Reports at a Glance [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Preterm birth is a leading cause of perinatal morbidity. While transvaginal cervical length (CL) is the standard screening tool for symptomatic women, its low specificity frequently leads to overtreatment and unnecessary hospital admissions ...

Uterocervical Angle Assessment in the Second Trimester of Pregnancy as a Predictor for Preterm Delivery [PDF]
Background: The wide uterocervical angle (UCA) has been identified as a predictor of preterm delivery, and the goal of this study is to see how accurate UCA is at predicting spontaneous preterm birth in the second trimester.

Comparison of Transvaginal and Transperineal Ultrasonographic Uterocervical Angle Measurements in Low-Risk Pregnancies at 24–34 Weeks’ Gestation [PDF]
Background: The uterocervical angle (UCA) is a promising ultrasound parameter for predicting preterm birth. Transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) is the gold standard for cervical assessment; however, some patients may decline the procedure due to discomfort or
