TL;DR: Relatively high oxygen saturation targeting (91–95%) was associated with a trend towards reduced retinal blood vessel growth in this study of preterm infants.

TL;DR: In this article, a health economic simulation model was used to compare long-term maternal-fetal health and cost outcomes for two detection strategies (universal ultrasound scanning at approximately 36 weeks of gestation versus selective ultrasound scanning), combined with three management strategies (planned caesarean section versus induction of labour versus expectant management) of suspected fetal macrosomia.

TL;DR: It is not possible to conclude whether OU closure, increased travel distances or times are associated with worse outcomes for the mother or the baby, but evidence on other maternal and neonatal outcomes was limited but did not suggest worse outcomes after closures or with longer travel times/distances.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the diagnostic effectiveness of universal late pregnancy ultrasound to predict adverse outcomes and the cost-effectiveness of either implementing universal ultrasound or conducting further research in this area.

TL;DR: Despite government recommendations, the uptake of named antenatal HIV testing in London is alarmingly low resulting in antenatal detection rates of 10%, and recent intercollegiate guidelines aim to address this issue.
