Objective: A retrospective analysis of caesarean section rates using modified Robson classification in years 2013-2016. Discussion of factors influencing the decrease of caesarean section rate.
Design: Restrospective data analysis.
Setting: Gynecology and obstetrics department Krajská nemocnice Liberec.
Methods: We compared the caesarean section rates at our department between years 2013-2016 using the modified Robson classification system. The groups were analysed both separately and mutually to identify the factors contributing to the decrease of caesarean section rate in concrete subgroups.
Results: We experienced a remarkable reduce in caesaren section rate from 24.6% in 2013 to 14.5% in 2016.
Conclusion: The Robson classification provides objective caesarean section rates comparisons. This method enables further interpretation of outcomes and policy assessment to reach the optimal caesarean section rate.

Background: Maternal tetanus toxoid (MTT) vaccination during pregnancy remains an important factor for reducing infant mortality globally, especially in developing nations, including Bangladesh. Despite commendable progress in reducing child mortality through widespread MTT vaccination during pregnancy, the issue still exists. This analysis explores the impact of MTT vaccination on neonatal mortality in Bangladesh and identifies associated factors.

Objective: To investigate the effects of allylestrenol on sex hormone levels and delivery outcomes in women with threatened abortion.
Methods: This retrospective analysis examined clinical data of patients with threatened abortion treated at Huzhou Maternity & Child Health Care Hospital from January 1, 2021, to December 31, 2022. A total of 149 eligible patients were screened and divided into two groups: a control group (n=75) treated with progesterone capsules from January to December 2021, and an observation group (n=74) treated with allylestrenol from January to December 2022.
Maternal and perinatal outcomes after implementation of a more active management in late- and postterm pregnancies in Sweden: A population-based cohort study.

Region Västra Götaland, Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Gothenburg, Sweden.
Background: The risk of perinatal death and severe neonatal morbidity increases gradually after 41 weeks of pregnancy. We evaluated maternal and perinatal outcomes after a national shift from expectancy and induction at 42+0 weeks to a more active management of late-term pregnancies in Sweden offering induction from 41+0 weeks or an individual plan aiming at birth or active labour no later than 42+0 weeks.
Methods And Findings: Women with a singleton pregnancy lasting 41+0 weeks or more with a fetus in cephalic presentation (N = 150,370) were included in a nationwide, register-based cohort study.
The CASPAR study protocol. Can cervical stiffness predict successful vaginal delivery after induction of labour? a feasibility, cohort study.
PLoS One
January 2025
Department of Women and Children's Health, Harris Preterm Birth Research Centre, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, United Kingdom.
Background: Induction of labour (IOL) is a common obstetric intervention in the UK, affecting up to 33% of deliveries. IOL aims to achieve a vaginal delivery prior to spontaneous onset of labour to prevent harm from ongoing pregnancy complications and is known to prevent stillbirths and reduce neonatal intensive care unit admissions. However, IOL doesn't come without risk and overall, 20% of mothers having an induction will still require a caesarean section birth and in primiparous mothers this rate is even higher.

Department of Obstetrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University, Nanning, 530021, Guangxi, China.
Background: Collaborative multidisciplinary approaches in obstetrics, particularly in conjunction with Intensive Care Units (ICUs), offer innovative treatment strategies for critically ill pregnant women. This study aimed to assess pregnancy outcomes and mortality in critically ill pregnant women in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and to provide valuable clinical insights for improving the management of obstetric emergency care, reducing maternal and neonatal adverse outcomes, and improving the level of obstetric care.
Methods: This study retrospectively included 152 critically ill pregnant women admitted to the ICU.
