TL;DR: Pregnancy‐related venous thromboembolism (VTE) is one of the leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality and needs to be considered as a potential cause of death in pregnant women.

TL;DR: To compare perioperative outcomes between robotic‐assisted benign hysterectomies and abdominal, vaginal, and laparoscopic hysteretomies when performed by high‐volume surgeons.

TL;DR: Robot‐assisted laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (RALSC) has spread rapidly without the availability of comprehensive and systematically recorded outcome data.

TL;DR: To investigate the efficacy of intralipid supplementation in women with recurrent spontaneous abortion and elevated natural killer cell activity undergoing in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection.

TL;DR: Misoprostol is an effective cervical ripening agent and should be considered as a first line treatment for cervical cancer in women with pre-operative indications.

TL;DR: To evaluate operative and nonoperative therapies for cesarean scar defects, a large number of patients with CSDs are admitted to hospital for treatment.

TL;DR: Although pica has long been associated with pregnancy, the exact prevalence in this population remains unknown.

TL;DR: To assess the vitamin D status of men and women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and to investigate associations between vitamin D Status and fertility variables.

TL;DR: To evaluate the effects of a mobile phone‐based intervention on postnatal maternal health behavior and maternal and infant health in a middle‐income country, a large number of patients were exposed to mobile phone use during pregnancy and the first trimester.

TL;DR: It is found that a majority of countries have policies in place for maternal death notification and review, yet a gap remains when examining the steps beyond this, including reviewing and reporting at an aggregate level, disseminating findings and recommendations, and involving civil society and communities.

TL;DR: To evaluate the prevalence of micrometastases in lymph node tissue of patients with stage Ib1–IIA cervical cancer, the correlation of micronutastases with tumor recurrence and survival, and the expression of D2‐40 in the primary tumor of patients With Recurrence and/or micromETastases and its correlation with histopathologic findings.

TL;DR: To investigate the effect of ovarian stimulation on endometrial receptivity by comparing singleton pregnancy and perinatal outcomes following fresh or frozen‐thawed blastocyst transfers.

TL;DR: To evaluate the perceptions of women with endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain regarding their social ties, a large number of them believe that they have no social ties at all.

TL;DR: The history of the creation of the risk and harm reduction model applied to unsafe abortion in Uruguay is reviewed, and a very favorable change was seen in the number and quality of the services, the providers’ attitude, and maternal morbidity and mortality were reduced.

TL;DR: The need to prevent early pregnancy and HIV among adolescent girls in Sub-Saharan Africa has been recognized increasingly over recent years as discussed by the authors, and the available evidence has been equivocal regarding improved outcomes.

TL;DR: An Expert Meeting on the Definition and Measurement of Unsafe Abortion was convened in London, UK, on January 9–10, 2014, to move toward developing a classification system that both reflects current conditions and acknowledges the gradient of risk associated with abortion.

TL;DR: To determine if the ultrasonographic morphology of a tubo‐ovarian abscess (TOA) could be used to predict if a patient will require surgical treatment, a large number of patients were surveyed.

TL;DR: To compare levels of interleukin‐6, intracellular adhesion molecule‐1 (ICAM‐1), and glycodelin A in serum and peritoneal fluid of patients with and without endometriosis, and to correlate levels with disease stage.
