The prevalence of neonatal hypoglycemia in twins vs. singletons following exposure to antenatal steroid therapy is comparable: A retrospective study in a single center.

Introduction: Antenatal corticosteroid (ACS) administration before anticipated preterm birth is one of the most important interventions available to improve neonatal outcomes. Nevertheless, this treatment is associated with an increased risk of neonatal hypoglycemia. The aim of this study was to determine whether preterm twins who receive ACS are at increased risk for developing neonatal hypoglycemia.

Proteinuria is a clinical characteristic of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy but it is not a marker of severity: A retrospective cohort study.

Objectives: To determine the prevalence of proteinuria in patients diagnosed with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (IHCP), and the association between the presence of proteinuria and adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study. The study included all pregnant patients between July 2014 and January 2022, at gestational age > 24weeks who had been diagnosed with IHCP and had completed a 24-hour protein collection.

Infracoccygeal/transperineal window: new method to prenatally diagnose and classify level of anal atresia.

Objectives: To introduce a two-dimensional sonographic method to assess the fetal anus, and to evaluate the feasibility of this method to diagnose anal atresia prenatally and identify the presence or absence of anoperineal fistula (in males) and anovestibular fistula (in females).

Methods: This was an observational study of suspected cases of anal atresia referred to a single center in Israel between August 2018 and October 2023. In addition to conventional evaluation of the perineum in the axial plane, fetuses referred to our center for suspected malformation were scanned with a new method termed the 'infracoccygeal/transperineal window'.

Outcomes in Pregnancies Complicated with Preterm Hypertensive Disorders with and without Late Antenatal Corticosteroids.

Objective:  This study aimed to determine whether administration of a late preterm (34-36 weeks) course of antenatal corticosteroids (ACS) is associated with improved short-term neonatal outcomes among pregnancies complicated with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) who delivered in the late preterm period.

Study Design:  A single tertiary center retrospective cohort study, including pregnant individuals with singleton fetuses who delivered between 34.0 and 36.

The benefit of active management in true knot of the umbilical cord: a retrospective study.

Purpose: To compare perinatal outcomes between active and routine management in true knot of the umbilical cord (TKUC).

Methods: A retrospective study of singletons born beyond 22  weeks with TKUC. Active management included weekly fetal heart rate monitoring(FHRM) ≥ 30 weeks and labor induction at 36-37 weeks.
