Objective: To develop a prediction model for adverse neonatal outcomes using electronic fetal monitoring (EFM) interpretation data and other relevant clinical information known at the start of the second stage of labor.
Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of individuals who labored and delivered at two academic medical centers between July 2016 and June 2020. Individuals were included if they had a singleton gestation at term (more than 37 weeks of gestation), a vertex-presenting, nonanomalous fetus, and planned vaginal delivery and reached the start of the second stage of labor.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to determine how late preterm antenatal steroids impact respiratory issues in newborns, focusing on the mode of delivery and the timing of the delivery (gestational age).
- It analyzed data from the ALPS Trial, involving 2,825 expectant mothers with singleton pregnancies at high risk for late preterm birth, comparing respiratory outcomes based on steroid usage.
- Results showed that the risk of respiratory morbidity is significantly higher for cesarean deliveries compared to vaginal deliveries, and varies depending on the week of gestation when the delivery occurs, indicating that antenatal steroids may have different effects based on these factors.
Background: We sought to assess the risk of hypertension based on the trajectory of changes in serum albumin concentrations.
Methods: A total of 11,946 nonhypertension adults aged 30-60 years who underwent at least 3 medical examinations between 2009 and 2016 were included in this study. Group-based trajectory models were obtained for 4 category groups, and logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for each category group of serum albumin concentration and the risk of hypertension.
Background: Epidemiological studies have found that high whole grain intake may be associated with a reduced risk of breast cancer. However, the evidence has not been consistent. We conducted a meta-analysis to quantitatively assess the association between whole grain intake and breast cancer risk.
