Electronic fetal heart rate monitoring is unable to identify preterm fetuses diagnosed with cerebral white matter injury during the neonatal period.
A single dose of intravaginal misoprostol decreases oxytocin use compared with intracervical dinoprostone, largely due to labor within the ripening period.
Once-daily, as compared with conventional, dosing of gentamicin for chorioamnionitis resulted in more favorable fetal and maternal serum peak levels.
Acute myocardial infarction during pregnancy remains a rare event, which is increasing in frequency, but decreasing in morbidity and mortality.
Surgical staging in patients presenting with grade 1 endometrial cancer has an impact on postoperative treatment decisions in almost one third of the patients.
Women With atypical glandular cells on cervical cytology Are at substantial risk for dysplasia.
Practice guidelines for women with atypical glandular cells on cervical cytology are followed inconsistently.
Breast cancer patients with an isolated adnexal mass most likely have benign ovarian pathology.
A modified technique of the vertical rectus abdominis flap for neovagina creation is described, and our experience to date is reported.
Preterm patients have a higher success rate when attempting a vaginal birth after cesarean delivery and similar uterine rupture rates when compared with term patients.
Vaginal delivery is a predictor of poor short-term outcome in infants weighing less than 751 g, and the negative impact decreases as birth weight category increases.
Short cervix and funneling in the second trimester of pregnancy and previous history of preterm birth are significantly associated with preterm delivery.
Overweight and obese women with single cephalic term pregnancies have a 1.3 to 15.3 times increased risk for pregnancy and delivery complications than women who are not.
Term-gestation low birth weight rates increase with numbers of health-compromising behaviors during pregnancy.
The clinical criteria for diagnosing bacterial vaginosis can be simplified without loss of sensitivity or specificity.
Asymptomatic Chlamydia trachomatis spontaneously resolves in 44% of pregnant women. Resolution is associated with older age and increasing time interval between testing.
Incidence rates for self-reported uterine leiomyomata in the Black Women's Health Study increased with age and were consistent with other U.S. studies that included African-American women.
Women with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer syndrome who develop more than one cancer in their lifetime often present with a gynecologic cancer first.
Young, premenopausal women diagnosed with endometrial cancer have a high incidence of obesity, nulliparity, and irregular menstrual cycles.
A change in group B streptococcal antibiotic prophylaxis protocol did not increase the rate of non-group B streptococcal sepsis or alter resistance patterns.
Placental disruption during late chorionic villus sampling or early amniocentesis in weeks 13 and 14 may be associated with an increased risk of subsequent maternal hypertensive complications.
Dizygotic twinning incidence is influenced by maternal body mass index and height.
Clinical case mix does not account for statistically significantly higher cesarean rates observed for small hospitals, teaching hospitals, and black women in the study population.
The use of an intranet-based prenatal record improves communication among the outpatient office, the antepartum testing unit, and the labor floor.
In unselected preterm deliveries, absent or reversed end-diastolic flow in the umbilical artery is significantly associated with either neonatal death or cerebral palsy in growth-restricted fetuses only.
Mean arterial pressure is lower in subsequent pregnancies when compared with first pregnancies, and the interval between pregnancies is inversely associated with the magnitude of these differences.
Acetylcholine-mediated vasodilatation is increased in the skin microcirculation of recently preeclamptic women, indicating abnormal endothelial function and an underlying (micro)angiopathy.
In a diverse cohort, body mass index was a strong predictor of whether women's target gestational weight gain fell within Institute of Medicine guidelines.
We developed a direct method to predict ovarian response that showed significant logistic regression to poor response and correlation with the required dose of gonadotropin.
Protein supplementation of culture media improves the hatching rate and reduces reactive oxygen species levels and the incidence of apoptosis in mouse preimplantation embryos.
Two pregnant women presenting with recurrent events of micturition syncope responded favorably to voiding behavior modification measures.
Early recognition of sacculation of the uterus is necessary to limit maternal and fetal morbidity as well as mortality associated with this rare complication.
Herceptin (trastuzumab), a chemotherapeutic agent that blocks the human epithelial growth factor receptor 2 protein, may cause severe oligohydramnios if used during pregnancy.
Urgency and frequency can be empirically treated when sinister symptoms, such as urinary retention, gross hematuria, or coexisting pelvic pathology, are not present.
