As a result of contamination of the river Techa by fission products in 1949-1956, the residents of the riverside villages were exposed to external and internal irradiation. The average gonadal dose in the study cohort of 28,100 people is estimated to be 0.16 Sv. No decrease in fertility and birth rate was detected. The gonadal doubling dose ranges calculated for the incidence of stillbirths, miscarriages, early neonatal mortality and lethal developmental defects was found to be rather high, ranging from 0.2 to 4.8 Sv.

Reproductive Center of Shenzhen Zhongshan Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital Formerly Reproductive Center of Shenzhen Zhongshan Urology Hospital, Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China.
Objective: To develop a predictive tool in the form of a Nomogram based on the Cox regression model, which incorporates the impact of the length of treatment cycles on the outcome of live birth, to evaluate the probability of infertile couples having a live birth after one or more complete cycles of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), and to provide patients with a risk assessment that is easy to understand and visualize.
Methods: A retrospective study for establishing a prediction model was conducted in the reproductive center of Shenzhen Zhongshan Obstetrics & Gynecology Hospital (formerly Shenzhen Zhongshan Urology Hospital). A total of 4413 patients who completed ovarian stimulation treatment and reached the trigger were involved.

Background: Growing evidence shows that dysregulated metabolic intrauterine environments can affect offspring's neurodevelopment and behaviour. However, the results of individual cohort studies have been inconsistent. We aimed to investigate the association between maternal diabetes before pregnancy and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) with neurodevelopmental, cognitive and behavioural outcomes in children.

Primary Objective: To assess the association between Epidural Analgesia (EA) during Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC) and delivery mode (spontaneous or instrumental vaginal delivery). Secondary objectives include maternal and neonatal outcomes.
Methods: In this retrospective population-based cohort study, all women who underwent a VBAC with and without EA, between the years 1996-2016 at the Soroka University Medical Center (SUMC) were included.

Background: Clinical guidelines in the UK and elsewhere do not specifically address hybrid closed loop (HCL) use in the postpartum period when the demands of caring for a newborn are paramount. Our aim was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HCL use during the first 6 months postpartum compared with standard care.
Methods: In this prespecified extension to a multicentre, randomised controlled trial, pregnant women with type 1 diabetes at nine UK sites were followed up for 6 months postpartum.
