A prospective study of 3 years of outcomes after hysterectomy with and without oophorectomy

Article Abstract:

A study was undertaken to determine the outcomes of hysterectomy with and without conservation of the ovaries, on the data collected prospectively for 3 years from 257 women undergoing hysterectomy and 57 women undergoing hysterectomy with oophorectomy. The result showed that the pelvic pain, abdominal pain and depression scores were reduced in 3 years after hysterectomy and the satisfaction is high, though some women regret loss of fertility.

Do antenatal corticosteroids help in the setting of preterm rupture of membranes?

Article Abstract:

Giving corticosteroids to pregnant women with premature rupture of their membranes can reduce the risk of several adverse fetal outcomes, including respiratory distress syndrome, intraventricular hemorrhage, necrotizing enterocolitis, and death. This was the conclusion of researchers who analyzed data from 15 controlled trials covering over 1,400 women.

A pilot randomized controlled trial of two regimens of fetal surveillance for small-for-gestational-age fetuses with normal results of umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry

Article Abstract:

Examining pregnant women with a small-for-gestational-age fetus twice a week is probably not necessary and will increase the risk of an induced labor. This was the conclusion of a study of 167 women, half of whom were examined twice a week and half every two weeks.
