A descriptive study of adverse childhood experiences and depression, anxiety, and stress among undergraduate nursing students.

Background/significance: The 10-point Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) score measures childhood exposure to traumatic events. An ACEs score of 4 or higher has been associated with long-term physical and mental health problems, and increased mortality. It is unclear if the rates of undergraduate nursing students experiencing ACEs is different from the general population, and what impact ACEs has on nursing students' depression, anxiety and stress.

Induction of labor and the relationship to cesarean delivery: A review of 7001 consecutive inductions.

Objective: The goal of this project was to study the increasing risk of induction of labor in a community hospital and to determine whether it had an adverse effect on the rate of cesarean delivery.

Study Design: From January 1, 1990, through July 31, 1997, 18,055 consecutive singleton pregnancies in women who were candidates for labor were reviewed via a comprehensive perinatal database. The risk of and indication for induction were reviewed.

Perinatal factors predicting severe intracranial hemorrhage.

The objective of this paper is to determine the importance of perinatal factors predicting occurrence of severe intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) in premature newborns. A post-hoc analysis of a previously published randomized, double-blinded, prospective trial was performed. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the importance of obstetrical variables and umbilical cord blood coagulation studies and acid-base status in predicting severe ICH (grades 3 and 4).
