Fetal deaths in the United States, 1997 vs 1991

Article Abstract:

The temporal change in fetal death risk in the US from 1991 to 1997 is discussed in a study of all singleton pregnancies 20 to 43 weeks of gestation. The increase in fetal death risk at 20 to 22 weeks of gestation was a result of the increase in registration practices, while the risk of fetal death has reduced among whites due to the rising trend towards routine labor induction at and after term.

The Contribution of Mild and Moderate Preterm Birth to Infant Mortality

Article Abstract:

Babies who are born between 32 and 36 weeks have a high risk of death. Most researchers focus on the prognosis of very premature babies who are born at 32 weeks or earlier. However, those born between 32 and 36 weeks are more common, so the public health impact is greater even though they have a better prognosis.

Pacifier Use, Early Weaning, and Cry/Fuss Behavior: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Article Abstract:

New mothers who use a pacifier are not more likely to wean their babies from breastfeeding earlier than mothers who do not. However, in a study of 258 mothers, researchers discovered that the use of a pacifier may be related to difficulty breastfeeding or an unwillingness to breastfeed.
