Background: Globally, the quality of maternal and newborn care remains inadequate, as seen through indicators like perineal injuries and low Apgar scores. While midwifery practices have the potential to improve care quality and health outcomes, there is a lack of evidence on how midwife-led initiatives, particularly those aimed at improving the use of dynamic birth positions, intrapartum support, and perineal protection, affect these outcomes.
Objective: To explore how the use of dynamic birth positions, intrapartum support, and perineal protection impact the incidence of perineal injuries and the 5-min Apgar score within the context of a midwife-led quality improvement intervention.

This study presents an advanced methodology for 3D heart reconstruction using a combination of deep learning models and computational techniques, addressing critical challenges in cardiac modeling and segmentation. A multi-dataset approach was employed, including data from the UK Biobank, MICCAI Multi-Modality Whole Heart Segmentation (MM-WHS) challenge, and clinical datasets of congenital heart disease. Preprocessing steps involved segmentation, intensity normalization, and mesh generation, while the reconstruction was performed using a blend of statistical shape modeling (SSM), graph convolutional networks (GCNs), and progressive GANs.

Semantic segmentation of high-resolution images from remote sensing is crucial across various sectors. However, due to limitations in computational resources and the complexity of network architectures, many sophisticated semantic segmentation models struggle with efficiency in real-world applications, leading to an interest in developing lightweight model like borders. These models often employ a dual-branch structure, which balances processing speed and performance effectively.

Happiness is a state of contentment, joy, and fulfillment, arising from relationships, accomplishments, and inner peace, leading to well-being and positivity. The greatest happiness principle posits that morality is determined by pleasure, aiming for a society where individuals are content and free from suffering. While happiness factors vary, some are universally recognized.
