Journal ArticleDOI
Obesity, obstetric complications and cesarean delivery rate--a population-based screening study.
Joshua L Weiss,Fergal D. Malone,Danielle Emig,Robert H. Ball,David A. Nyberg,Christine H. Comstock,George R. Saade,Keith Eddleman,Suzanne M. Carter,Sabrina D. Craigo,Stephen R. Carr,Mary E. D'Alton +11 more
TL;DR: Obesity is an independent risk factor for adverse obstetric outcome and is significantly associated with an increased cesarean delivery rate.
Journal ArticleDOI
First-trimester or second-trimester screening, or both, for down's syndrome
Fergal D. Malone,Fergal D. Malone,Fergal D. Malone,Jacob A. Canick,Robert H. Ball,David A. Nyberg,Christine H. Comstock,Radek Bukowski,Richard L. Berkowitz,Susan J. Gross,Lorraine Dugoff,Sabrina D. Craigo,Ilan E. Timor-Tritsch,Stephen R. Carr,Honor M. Wolfe,Kimberly A. Dukes,Diana W. Bianchi,Alicja R. Rudnicka,A. K. Hackshaw,A. K. Hackshaw,Geralyn Lambert-Messerlian,Nicholas J. Wald,Mary E. D'Alton +22 more
TL;DR: First-trimester combined screening at 11 weeks of gestation is better than secondtrimester quadruple screening but at 13 weeks has results similar to second-tr pregnancy quadruple screened, except for the comparison between serum integrated screening and combined screening.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of maternal age on obstetric outcome.
Jane Cleary-Goldman,Fergal D. Malone,John Vidaver,Robert H. Ball,David A. Nyberg,Christine H. Comstock,George R. Saade,Keith Eddleman,Susan Klugman,Lorraine Dugoff,Ilan E. Timor-Tritsch,Sabrina D. Craigo,Stephen R. Carr,Honor M. Wolfe,Diana W. Bianchi,Mary E. D'Alton +15 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that increasing maternal age is independently associated with specific adverse pregnancy outcomes and is a continuum rather than a threshold effect.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Randomized, Controlled Trial of Magnesium Sulfate for the Prevention of Cerebral Palsy
Dwight J. Rouse,Deborah Hirtz,Elizabeth Thom,Michael W. Varner,Catherine Y. Spong,Brian M. Mercer,Brian M. Mercer,Jay D. Iams,Ronald J. Wapner,Ronald J. Wapner,Yoram Sorokin,James M. Alexander,Margaret Harper,John M. Thorp,Susan M. Ramin,Fergal D. Malone,Marshall W. Carpenter,Menachem Miodovnik,Atef H. Moawad,Mary Jo O'Sullivan,Alan M. Peaceman,Gary D.V. Hankins,Oded Langer,Steve N. Caritis,James M. Roberts +24 more
TL;DR: Fetal exposure to magnesium sulfate before anticipated early preterm delivery did not reduce the combined risk of moderate or severe cerebral palsy or death, although the rate of cerebral palsies was reduced among survivors.
Journal ArticleDOI
First-trimester maternal serum PAPP-A and free-beta subunit human chorionic gonadotropin concentrations and nuchal translucency are associated with obstetric complications: A population-based screening study (The FASTER Trial)
Lorraine Dugoff,John C. Hobbins,Fergal D. Malone,T. Flint Porter,David A. Luthy,Christine H. Comstock,Gary D.V. Hankins,Richard L. Berkowitz,Irwin R. Merkatz,Sabrina D. Craigo,Ilan E. Timor-Tritsch,Steven R. Carr,Honor M. Wolfe,John Vidaver,Mary E. D'Alton +14 more
TL;DR: Low pregnancy-associated plasma protein A levels in the first trimester were associated strongly with a number of adverse pregnancy outcomes, and low free-beta subunit human chorionic gonadotropin levels and large nuchal translucency were both associated with early fetal loss.
