Introduction: Adverse perinatal outcomes (APO) pose a significant global challenge, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This study aims to analyse two cohorts of high-risk pregnant women for APO to comprehend risk factors and improve prediction accuracy.
Methods: We considered an LMIC and a high-income country (HIC) population to derive XGBoost classifiers to predict low birth weight (LBW) from a comprehensive set of maternal and fetal characteristics including socio-demographic, past and current pregnancy information, fetal biometry and fetoplacental Doppler measurements.
Vanillic acid (VA) regulates various plant physiological and biochemical processes upon different environmental stresses to enhance their tolerance. This study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of VA on growth and physiology, including osmoprotection, and antioxidant defense systems for enhancing higher tolerance by lowering oxidative damage against water deficit stress in tomatoes ( L. cv.
