AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to assess how a new teamwork approach in obstetrics affects the quality of care for pregnant women during delivery.
  • The analysis involved 3,751 full-term women, comparing outcomes between those receiving multidisciplinary support and those who did not.
  • Results showed that the multidisciplinary group had higher rates of pain relief and lower rates of postpartum bleeding, cesarean section, and low neonatal Apgar scores, indicating improved delivery outcomes.

Article Abstract

Objective: To explore the impact of a novel multidisciplinary cooperation model in obstetric medical quality control.

Methods: This quasi-experimental study analyzed the quality indicators of full-term pregnant women who underwent vaginal trial labor in Zibo Maternal and Child Health Hospital between July 2021 and June 2022. The pregnant women were divided into two groups based on implementation of novel multidisciplinary cooperation: multidisciplinary and non-multidisciplinary. We compared the rate of labor analgesia, postpartum hemorrhage in vaginal delivery, transfer to cesarean section, and the 5-min Apgar score ≤7 in full-term neonates.

Results: A total of 3751 pregnant women were enrolled into the study, of whom 2004 were included in the non-multidisciplinary group and 1747 in the multidisciplinary group. The analgesic rate of delivery of the multidisciplinary group was higher than that of the non-multidisciplinary group (P = 0.000). We established that the rate of postpartum bleeding (P = 0.040), transfer cesarean section (P = 0.003) and the incidence of Apgar score ≤7 in 5 min of full-term neonates (P = 0.038) of the multidisciplinary group was lower than that of the non-multidisciplinary group. There was no significant difference in the mean ages (29.40 ± 3.99 vs. 29.90 ± 4.27 years; P = 0.126), mean delivery gestational ages (39.65 ± 0.87 vs. 39.64 ± 1.06; P = 0.221), mean gravidity values (1.93 ± 1.09 vs. 2.00 ± 1.18; P = 0.586) and mean parity (1.40 ± 0.56 vs. 1.42 ± 0.59; P = 0.635) of the women in the two groups.

Conclusion: Multidisciplinary cooperation in delivery management can significantly improve some quality indicators. We established the analgesic rate of delivery can be increased and the rate of postpartum bleeding, transfer cesarean section and the incidence of Apgar score ≤7 in 5 min of full-term neonates can be decreased with the implementation of novel multidisciplinary cooperation.

Department of Herbal Pharmacology, College of Korean Medicine, Gachon University, 1342 Seongnamdae-ro, Sujeong-gu, Seongnam-si 13120, Republic of Korea.

The NLRP3 inflammasome, plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by activating inflammatory cytokines such as IL1β and IL18. Targeting NLRP3 has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy for RA. In this study, a multidisciplinary approach combining machine learning, quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) modeling, structure-activity landscape index (SALI), docking, molecular dynamics (MD), and molecular mechanics Poisson-Boltzmann surface area MM/PBSA assays was employed to identify novel NLRP3 inhibitors.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) poses a significant and growing global health challenge, making early detection and slowing disease progression essential for improving patient outcomes. Traditional diagnostic methods such as glomerular filtration rate and proteinuria are insufficient to capture the complexity of CKD. In contrast, omics technologies have shed light on the molecular mechanisms of CKD, helping to identify biomarkers for disease assessment and management.
