BACKGROUND: Slow progression of labor is a common obstetrical problem with multiple associated complications. Tafoxiparin is a depolymerized form of heparin with a molecular structure that eliminates the anticoagulant effects of heparin. We report on...
Physical simulation systems are commonly used in training of midwifery and obstetrics students, but none of these systems offers a dynamic compliance aspect that would make them more truly representative of cervix ripening. In this study, we introduc...
Propensity score matching (PSM) and propensity score weighting (PSW) are popular tools to estimate causal effects in observational studies. We address two open issues: how to estimate propensity scores and assess covariate balance. Using simulations,...
BACKGROUND: While previous studies identified risk factors for diverse pregnancy outcomes, traditional statistical methods had limited ability to quantify their impacts on birth outcomes precisely. We aimed to use a novel approach that applied differ...
OBJECTIVES: We aimed at identifying the important variables for labour induction intervention and assessing the predictive performance of machine learning algorithms.
BACKGROUND: Prediction of low Apgar score for vaginal deliveries following labor induction intervention is critical for improving neonatal health outcomes. We set out to investigate important attributes and train popular machine learning (ML) algorit...
To evaluate and establish a prediction model of the outcome of induced labor based on machine learning algorithm. This was a cross-sectional design. The subjects were divided into primipara and multipara, and the risk factors for the outcomes of indu...
OBJECTIVE:  Distinguishing between medically indicated induction of labor (iIOL) and elective induction of labor (eIOL) is a daunting process for researchers. We aimed to develop a Natural Language Processing (NLP) algorithm to identify eIOLs from el...

INTRODUCTION: Induction of labor, often used for pregnancy termination, has globally rising rates, especially in high-income countries where pregnant women present with more comorbidities. Consequently, concerns on a potential rise in cesarean sectio...
