To identify factors related to retained placenta in the context of contemporary obstetric practice.This was a case-control study comparing 408 cases and an equivalent number control individuals. Epidemiological delivery-related variables were registered computerized prenatal in-hospital medical records. Univariable multivariable logistic regressions used for estimation risk ratios statistical significance.Independent were: previous (odds ratio [OR] 12.61, 95% confidence interval [CI]...
Objective To evaluate whether defective placentation disorders, i.e. pre‐eclampsia, stillbirth, small for gestational age ( SGA ), and spontaneous preterm birth, are associated with risk of retained placenta. Design Population‐based cohort study. Setting Sweden. Population Primiparous women in Sweden singleton vaginal deliveries between 1997 2009 at 32–41 weeks gestation n = 386 607), without placental abruption or infants congenital malformations.

Objective Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is the leading cause of maternal death. Identifying excessive bleeding crucial, but there no gold standard for its measurement. We aimed to assess accordance between two formulas calculated blood loss (CBL) and weight-based (WBBL) determine if CBL has a place in either clinical or research obstetric context.
Abstract Introduction Postpartum hemorrhage is the leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide. Several studies have confirmed that tranexamic acid effective in treating postpartum once started, but its prophylactic effect under debate. As now, most involve intravenous administration, and uptake women during active labor unknown. This a pilot study preparation for larger randomized controlled trial on oral hemorrhage. The aims to assess labor. Material Methods Our intervention study....
The effects of nicotine consumption on uteroplacental blood flow were studied in 20 pregnant women by means placental measurements using indium-113m-transferrin. Smokers found to have a higher rate poor perfusion patterns than subjects control group. In addition, the number cigarettes smoked daily was significantly correlated with type. mean birth weight infants born smokers 250 g lower results suggest that smoking during pregnancy may compromise and thus result fetal development.

However, less is known about the possible association placental location other than with pregnancy outcomes. aim this study was to investigate if associated adverse Material methods This a population‐based cohort study, data from regional Stockholm‐Gotland Obstetric Cohort, Sweden, 2008 2014. population included 74 087 nulliparous women singleton pregnancies resulting...

Retained placenta is associated with severe postpartum hemorrhage. Its etiology unknown and its biochemistry has not been studied. We aimed to assess whether levels of the antioxidative enzyme Glutathione Peroxidase 1 (GPX1) transcription factor Nuclear Factor κβ (NFκβ), as markers oxidative stress inflammation, were affected in retained placentas compared spontaneously released from otherwise normal full term pregnancies. In a pilot study we assessed concentrations GPX1 by ELISA gene (mRNA)...
