Fetal electrocardiogram (ECG) provides a non-invasive means to assess fetal heart health, but isolating the fetal signal from the dominant maternal ECG remains challenging. This study introduces the FHH-AMGNN-HTSOA-ECG-AD method for enhanced fetal ar...
INTRODUCTION: Inflammation of the umbilical cord can be seen as a result of ascending intrauterine infection or other inflammatory stimuli. Acute fetal inflammatory response (FIR) is characterized by infiltration of the umbilical cord by fetal neutro...
There is currently a paucity of research on the effects of early life exposure to particulate matter (PM) of various size fractions on pneumonia in preschool-aged children. We explored the connections between antenatal and postnatal exposure to atmos...
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to predict newborn birth weight through multifactorial analysis of macroscopic placental images using artificial intelligence (AI).
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) refers to any degree of impaired glucose tolerance with onset or first recognition during pregnancy. As a high-prevalence disease, GDM damages the health of both pregnant women and fetuses in the short and long ter...
INTRODUCTION: Tobacco use during pregnancy is a significant public health concern, associated with adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes. Despite its critical importance, comprehensive data on tobacco use among pregnant women in sub-Saharan Africa i...
