Article Synopsis
- The study compares the effects of two drugs, hyoscine and dexamethasone, on cervical ripening during childbirth to assess their influence on pregnancy outcomes and overall maternal health.
- It involved 150 participants in a double-blind trial, with three different groups receiving varying combinations of the drugs during the early stages of labor.
- Findings indicated that the combination of both drugs significantly reduced the duration of the active stage of labor, lower cesarean rates, and improved newborn assessments (Apgar scores) compared to the other groups.
A simple aqueous host:guest sensing array can selectively discriminate between different types of citrus varietal from peel extract samples. It can also distinguish between identical citrus samples at varying stages of ripening. The discrimination effects stem from detection of changes in the terpenoid composition of the peel extracts by the host:guest array, despite the overwhelming excess of a single component, limonene, in each sample.
