Simulation-based, hands-on training can identify commonly recurring errors in the management of obstetric emergencies.
A woman with a pregnancy that terminates in late intrauterine fetal death may be at increased risk for long-term mortality.
A modified version of recommendations from the American Institute of Medicine on maternal weight gain in pregnancy may be used as Danish guidelines.
High maternal serum levels of both placental growth factor and soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 at 10-14 weeks of gestation are associated with a reduced risk of adverse pregnancy outcome.
The low risk of subsequent cervical precancer in women with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance cytology but a negative test for carcinogenic human papillomavirus suggests return to routine screening.
Although receipt of timely follow-up for an abnormal Pap test does not differ by race, the correlates of timely follow-up do differ by race.
Ovarian cancer patients seen by gynecologic oncologists were more likely to undergo primary staging surgery and receive chemotherapy, and they had an associated improvement in survival.
Demographic and medical risk factors do not explain the high rate of cesarean delivery among women delivering in Puerto Rico.
Only a minority of relatively healthy, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected pregnant women in Latin America and the Caribbean had a viral load of 1,000 copies/mL or more around delivery, and mother-to-child transmission of HIV occurred rarely (1%).
Alterations in plasma levels of soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 and placental growth factor are more pronounced in early-onset than in late-onset preeclampsia.

Global endometrial ablation is an effective minimally invasive treatment option for women with underlying coagulopathy presenting with excessive menstrual blood loss.
Comprehensive surgical staging is the least costly and most effective strategy for the management of grade 1 endometrial adenocarcinoma.
Symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse affects approximately 6% of women aged older than 40 years, and almost 50% are substantially bothered by their symptoms.
Age-specific baseline follicle-stimulating hormone levels allow the establishment of objective criteria for the diagnosis of premature ovarian aging.
We identified risk factors for disease recurrence and dysmenorrhea recurrence as well as patterns of recurrence in 710 women with ovarian endometrioma.
An aromatase inhibitor relieved persistent endometriosis pain in a posthysterectomy patient.
Heterogeneity in reported failure rates of sacrospinous ligament fixation can be explained by the criteria used to assess recurrence of prolapse.
Trial registration and the development of comprehensive, computerized databases will promote transparency in research and help reduce publication bias.
Before medically treating a nonsurgically diagnosed ectopic pregnancy, consider the possibility that a live intrauterine pregnancy may rarely masquerade as ectopic pregnancy.
