Antenatal magnesium sulfate for the prevention of cerebral palsy in preterm infants less than 34 weeks' gestation: a systematic review and metaanalysis
TL;DR: In conclusion, magnesium sulfate administered to women at risk of delivery before 34 weeks of gestation reduces the risk of cerebral palsy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ramsi Haddad,Gerard Tromp,Helena Kuivaniemi,Tinnakorn Chaiworapongsa,Yeon Mee Kim,Yeon Mee Kim,Moshe Mazor,Roberto Romero +7 more
TL;DR: Labor induces gene expression changes consistent with localized inflammation, despite the absence of histologically detectable inflammation, according to Gene Ontology analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Four-dimensional ultrasonography of the fetal heart with spatiotemporal image correlation☆
Luís F. Gonçalves,Wesley Lee,Tinnakorn Chaiworapongsa,Jimmy Espinoza,M. L. Schoen,Peter Falkensammer,Marjorie C. Treadwell,Roberto Romero +7 more
TL;DR: Dynamic multiplanar slicing and surface rendering of the fetal heart are feasible with STIC technology and may assist in the evaluation of fetal cardiac anatomy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial vaginosis, the inflammatory response and the risk of preterm birth: a role for genetic epidemiology in the prevention of preterm birth.
TL;DR: A Clinical Opinion will review key concepts of bacterial vaginosis, vaginal inflammation, the importance of genetic control of the inflammatory response in the context of microbial invasion, and the significance of the report of Dr Macones et al contained in the current issue of the Journal.
Journal ArticleDOI
