<title>Induction cuts risk of babies dying, researchers say</title>
<link>http://www.medsurfnews.com/contents/it/7280/display/induction-cuts-risk-of-babies-dying-researchers-say.aspx</link>
<description><![CDATA[Babies born after labour is induced have less risk of dying but a higher risk of admission to a special-care unit, a study suggests. The British Medical Journal analysis of 1.2m births in Scotland between 1981 and 2007 also found no increased chance of a Caesarean section - contrary to previous findings.]]></description>

<title>Reproductive Technologies and the Risk of Birth Defects</title>
<link>http://www.medsurfnews.com/contents/it/7266/display/reproductive-technologies-and-the-risk-of-birth-defects.aspx</link>
<description><![CDATA[In a large observational study using detailed Australian databases with information on several potential confounders, results confirmed previous findings of an increased risk of birth defects among births conceived with assisted reproductive technology as compared with births from spontaneous conception. After multivariate adjustment, the association between IVF and the risk of any birth defect was no longer significant, whereas the increased risk of any birth defect associated with ICSI remained significant.

<title>Endometrial Polyps and Malignancy</title>

<description><![CDATA[With the spreading of ultrasound and hysteroscopic techniques, the finding of endometrial polyps, which are generally considered as harmless and with no cancer risk, has greatly increased. But is it really so? Some researchers have performed a meta-analysis on 17 studies concerning 10,572 women, to whom endometrial polyps, undergoing then histological examinations, had been removed.]]></description>

<title>New draft quality standard for antenatal care</title>
<link>http://www.medsurfnews.com/contents/it/7168/display/new-draft-quality-standard-for-antenatal-care.aspx</link>
<description><![CDATA[NICE has published a new draft quality standard for antenatal care. Antenatal care covers all pregnant women (up to 41 weeks of pregnancy) across all settings that routinely provide NHS antenatal care, including primary, community and hospital-based care. The new draft quality standard includes ensuring pregnant women are cared for by a small group of healthcare professionals throughout their pregnancy. It also states that pregnant women with a body mass index of 30 kg/m2 or more at the booking appointment are offered personalised advice from an appropriately trained professional on healthy eating and how to be physically active. All pregnant women should also be offered fetal screening such as Down's syndrome testing and the fetal anomaly ultrasound, in accordance with current UK National Screening Committee programmes. Pregnant women should also be offered balanced and consistent information about breastfeeding which they understand and have the opportunity to discuss.

<title>Transcriptome landscape of the human placenta</title>
<link>http://www.medsurfnews.com/contents/it/7169/display/transcriptome-landscape-of-the-human-placenta.aspx</link>
<description><![CDATA[The placenta is a key component in understanding the physiological processes involved in pregnancy. Characterizing genes critical for placental function can serve as a basis for identifying mechanisms underlying both normal and pathologic pregnancies. Detailing the placental tissue transcriptome could provide a valuable resource for genomic studies related to placental disease. ]]></description>

<title>Tranexamic Acid in Hypermenorrhea</title>
<link>http://www.medsurfnews.com/contents/it/7073/display/tranexamic-acid-in-hypermenorrhea.aspx</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hypermenorhea (defined as a menstruation greater than 80 ml per cycle) can be a condition which, beside influencing the quality of life, leads to hysterectomy as an extreme treatment. Tranexamic acid is often used to fight against this condition, even if its gastrointestinal side effects are quite frequent. In the USA this substance is not approved for this indication, but now a new formulation has been created, experimented on 187 women (between 18 and 49 years of age) with a 6-month follow-up.]]></description>

<title>Excessive Weight Gain during Pregnancy</title>
<link>http://www.medsurfnews.com/contents/it/6966/display/excessive-weight-gain-during-pregnancy.aspx</link>
<description><![CDATA[We know that an excessive neonatal weight is often associated with obesity in adulthood and can imply an increase in mortality related to excessive body weight. Previous trials have analyzed the relation between weight gain in pregnant women and the newborn’s weight. In order to remedy this lack, some US researchers have examined a database including about 513,000 women – each with at least two children – to calculate the difference between maternal and neonatal weight gain in the two consecutive pregnancies for each woman.]]></description>

<title>Genomics and Perinatal Care</title>
<link>http://www.medsurfnews.com/contents/it/6963/display/genomics-and-perinatal-care.aspx</link>
<description><![CDATA[Among both prospective parents and providers of medical care, genetic and social concerns peak during the perinatal period. Advances in genomics and assisted reproductive technology have created new opportunities to detect genetic disorders and susceptibilities at multiple times during perinatal care and thus are relevant to these concerns. Emerging therapies for single-gene disorders may reshape these discussions.]]></description>
