Key dimensions of women's and their partners' experiences of childbirth: A systematic review of reviews of qualitative studies.

Background: The World Health Organization 2018 intrapartum guideline for a positive birth experience emphasized the importance of maternal emotional and psychological well-being during pregnancy and the need for safe childbirth. Today, in many countries birth is safe, yet many women report negative and traumatic birth experiences, with adverse effects on their and their families' well-being. Many reviews have attempted to understand the complexity of women's and their partners' birth experience; however, it remains unclear what the key dimensions of the birth experience are.

Measuring disrespect and abuse during childbirth in a high-resource country: Development and validation of a German self-report tool.

Introduction: Increasing evidence on disrespect and abuse during childbirth has led to growing concern about the quality of care childbearing women are experiencing. To provide quantitative evidence of disrespect and abuse during childbirth services in Germany a validated measurement tool is needed.

Research Aim: The aim of this research project was the development and psychometric validation of a survey tool in the German language that measures disrespect and abuse of women during childbirth.

A comparison of cognitive function in patients under maintenance treatment with heroin, methadone, or buprenorphine and healthy controls: an open pilot study.

Introduction: Cognitive impairment has been reported in drug-dependent patients under opioid maintenance treatment.

Objectives: To compare cognitive functioning in healthy controls and in opioid-dependent patients treated with Buprenorphine, Heroin, or methadone maintenance.

Methods: We used the standardized test battery ART-90 to study cognitive function in patients under long-term heroin treatment (n = 20), Bup (n = 22), or Met (n = 24) maintenance treatment and healthy controls (n = 25).

Cognitive functioning during methadone and buprenorphine treatment: results of a randomized clinical trial.

Cognitive impairment in drug-dependent patients receiving methadone (MMP) maintenance treatment has been reported previously. We assessed cognitive functioning after at least 14 days of stable substitution treatment with buprenorphine (BUP) or MMP and after 8 to 10 weeks. We performed a randomized, nonblinded clinical trial in 59 drug-dependent patients receiving either BUP or MMP maintenance treatment and healthy normal controls (n = 24) matched for sex, age, and educational level.

Less impairment on one portion of a driving-relevant psychomotor battery in buprenorphine-maintained than in methadone-maintained patients: results of a randomized clinical trial.

Background: Cognitive impairment in drug-dependent patients under methadone maintenance treatment has been reported before. We assessed whether patients under buprenorphine, a partial mu-opioid agonist, perform better in cognitive tests measuring psychomotor performance as described in previous nonrandomized studies.

Methods: We performed a randomized clinical trial in 62 drug-dependent patients under either buprenorphine or methadone treatment.
