Journal ArticleDOI
The cost-effectiveness of using performance-based financing to deliver the basic package of health services in Afghanistan.
TL;DR: It is found that PBF, as implemented in the Afghan context, was not the best use of funds to strengthen the delivery of maternal and child health services and the cost-effectiveness of alternative PBF designs needs to be appraised before using PBF at scale to support health benefit packages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differences in epidemiology of patients with preeclampsia between China and the US (Review).
TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that the differences in the incidence of preeclampsia between China and the US may be due to differences in ethnicity and genetic susceptibility, maternal age, sexual culture, body mass index, diet, exercise, multiple pregnancies and educational background.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of follistatin and granulocyte-colony stimulating factor in HIV-associated pre-eclampsia.
TL;DR: A downregulation of FS and G-CSF expression in PE, compared to normotensive pregnancies is demonstrated, attributed to oxidative stress and its immunoregulatory role in the hyperinflammatory milieu of PE.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated changes in circulating kisspeptin levels across all three trimesters in women with antenatal complications, including preterm birth, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), fetal growth restriction (FGR), gestational diabetes (GDM), and stroke.

TL;DR: Data indicate that rPS pregnancies are preceded by an increase in antioxidant capacity, presumably induced by subclinical vascular injury and low-grade chronic inflammation.

TL;DR: This article presents bootstrap methods for estimation, using simple arguments, with Minitab macros for implementing these methods, as well as some examples of how these methods could be used for estimation purposes.
Journal ArticleDOI
WHO analysis of causes of maternal death: a systematic review
TL;DR: Haemorrhage and hypertensive disorders are major contributors to maternal deaths in developing countries and these data should inform evidence-based reproductive health-care policies and programmes at regional and national levels.

Report of the National High Blood Pressure Education Program Working Group on High Blood Pressure in Pregnancy
Trends in maternal mortality: 1990 to 2010. WHO UNICEF UNFPA and the World Bank estimates.
TL;DR: The MDG 5 Target 5A calls for the reduction of maternal mortality ratio by three quarters between 1990 and 2015 as mentioned in this paper, which has been a challenge to assess the extent of progress due to the lack of reliable and accurate maternal mortality data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnesium sulphate and other anticonvulsants for women with pre-eclampsia.
TL;DR: Magnesium sulphate more than halves the risk of eclampsia, and probably reduces maternal death, and there is no clear effect on outcome after discharge from hospital.
