As social media use has grown in recent years, ease of access and rapid data collection through online social media has permitted researchers to measure and track sentiments related to emerging public health threats. Herein, we explore the possibilit...
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the impacts of 0.15% ropivacaine alone and 0.15% ropivacaine combined with sufentanil on epidural labor analgesia.

Ultrasound examinations during pregnancy can detect abnormal fetal development, which is a leading cause of perinatal mortality. In multiple pregnancies, the position of the fetuses may change between examinations. The individual fetus cannot be clea...
Medical ultrasonography was first used as a diagnostic tool in 1942 by Theodore Karl Dussik to visualize brain structures. Use of ultrasonography broadened to the field of obstetrics in the 1950s and has since expanded to many other medical special-t...

Preterm birth (PTB) is defined as delivery occurring before 37 weeks of gestation. In this paper, Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based predictive models are adapted to accurately estimate the probability of PTB. In doing so, pregnant women' objective r...
INTRODUCTION: Vesicouterine fistula (VVF) is a rare disease. In 83-93% of cases it develops due to caesarean section. VVF is characterized by non-physiological communication between the bladder and the uterus. This disorder has a significant social i...
While artificial intelligence (AI) offers promising solutions in healthcare, it also poses a number of threats to human health and well-being via social, political, economic and security-related determinants of health. We describe three such main way...
STUDY QUESTION: Can artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms developed to assist embryologists in evaluating embryo morphokinetics be enriched with multi-centric clinical data to better predict clinical pregnancy outcome?
