Objective: To evaluate knowledge, practices, and beliefs of US patients receiving prescription opioids regarding opioid storage, disposal, and diversion.
Design: Internet-based, cross-sectional survey conducted between September and October 2018. Fisher's exact tests and Kendall's Tau-c were used to assess associations with storage and disposal outcomes.
Objective: To review bowel complications caused by deep endometriosis during pregnancy or in vitro fertilization (IVF).
Design: Three case reports and a systematic review.
Setting: A tertiary referral center for deep endometriosis surgery.
Objective: to assess the accuracy of paired estimated fetal weights (EFWs) to predict three levels of twin birth weight discordance (>15%, >20% and >25%).
Method: a cohort of twin pairs underwent ultrasound examinations within 2 weeks from birth. We calculated the frequency of under- and overestimation of the actual birth weight (< or >10%, respectively) in the entire cohort as well in the subset of mono- and dichorionic pairs.
Purpose: to compare delivery and pregnancy follow-up among adolescent and non-adolescent pregnant women whose delivery occurred in a tertiary hospital from Região de Lisboa (Portugal).
Methods: retrospective study with 10,656 deliveries. Pregnancy follow-up, delivery type, need of episiotomy and severe lacerations, Apgar index at the fifth minute and the delivery weight have been evaluated.
