The Value of Posterior Cervical Angle as a Predictor of Vaginal Delivery: A Preliminary Study.

Accurate prediction of failure to progress and rapid decision making regarding the mode of delivery can improve pregnancy outcomes. We examined the value of sonographic cervical markers in the prediction of successful vaginal delivery beyond 34 weeks of gestation. A retrospective chart review was carried out.

Perinatal Outcomes Associated with Latency in Late Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes.

This study aims to evaluate the perinatal outcomes of preterm premature rupture of membrane (PPROM) with latency periods at 33 + 0-36 + 6 weeks of gestation. This retrospective case-control study included women with singleton pregnancies who delivered at 33 + 0-36 + 6 weeks at Korea University Ansan Hospital in South Korea between 2006-2019. The maternal and neonatal characteristics were compared between different latency periods (expectant delivery ≥72 h vs.

Comparison of the effects of gestational weight gain on pregnancy outcomes between non-diabetic and diabetic women.

Objective: Appropriate gestational weight gain (GWG) is important in diabetic women. Current GWG guideline is for US general population, but not specific for diabetic women. We compared the effect of GWG on perinatal outcomes between diabetic and non-diabetic women.

Biochemical Responses of Anodized Titanium Implants with a Poly(lactide-co-glycolide)/Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 Submicron Particle Coating. Part 2: An In Vivo Study.

Purpose: A biochemical approach to implant surfaces can improve bone growth, resulting in desirable bone-implant interfaces. This study was conducted to identify the effect on osseointegration of direct coating of titanium (Ti) implants with poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide)(PLGA)/recombinant human bone morphogenetic 2 (rhBMP-2) submicron particles by electrospray.

Materials And Methods: Anodized Ti implants were used as a control group, and implants coated with 80 μL of PLGA/rhBMP-2 (50 μg/mL rhBMP-2 per implant) submicron particles by electrospray were used as the experimental group in an in vivo rabbit tibia model.

Polyphenols and antioxidant capacity of a spontaneous reddish mutant in Satsuma mandarin, Shinheungri.

A Satsuma mandarin (Citrus unshiu Marc. cv. Miyagawa) spontaneous mutant, Shinheungri, produces fruit with an abnormal red-coloured peel during ripening.

Comparison of inflammatory markers between diabetic and nondiabetic ST segment elevation myocardial infarction.

Background: Inflammation plays a significant role in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). There may be similar inflammatory changes in non-DM patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and DM patients with stable angina (SA), and DM patients with STEMI may have more severe changes than the former two groups. The objectives of this study were to investigate whether the level of inflammation was similar in patients with non-DM STEMI and DM SA, and to evaluate whether the changes in the level of inflammation were more severe in patients with DM STEMI compared to the other two groups.
