Perinatal outcomes in women living with HIV-1 and receiving antiretroviral therapy—a systematic review and meta-analysis
doi : 10.1111/aogs.14282
44496
Antiretroviral therapy-naïve pregnant women living with HIV are at an increased risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes. It remains controversial whether this risk persists with antiretroviral therapy. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate whether pregnant women living with HIV and receiving antiretroviral therapy antenatally, are at an increased risk of adverse outcomes compared with HIV-negative controls.
Implementation of a revised classification for intrapartum fetal heart rate monitoring and association to birth outcome: AÂ national cohort study
doi : 10.1111/aogs.14296
44589
A revised intrapartum cardiotocography (CTG) classification was introduced in Sweden in 2017. The aims of the revision were to adapt to the international guideline published in 2015 and to adjust the classification of CTG patterns to current evidence regarding intrapartum fetal physiology. This study aimed to investigate adverse neonatal outcomes before and after implementation of the revised CTG classification.
The effect of Zhang’s guideline vs the WHO partograph on childbirth experience measured by the Childbirth Experience Questionnaire in the Labor Progression Study (LaPS): A cluster randomized trial
doi : 10.1111/aogs.14298

Childbirth experience is an increasingly recognized and important measure of quality of obstetric care. Previous research has shown that it can be affected by intrapartum care and how labor is followed. A partograph is recommended to follow labor progression by recording cervical dilation over time. There are currently different guidelines in use worldwide to follow labor progression. The two main ones are the partograph recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) based on the work of Friedman and Philpott and a guideline based on Zhang’s research. In our study we assessed the effect of adhering to Zhang’s guideline or the WHO partograph on childbirth experience. Zhang’s guideline describes expected normal labor progression based on data from contemporary obstetric populations, resulting in an exponential progression curve, compared with the linear WHO partograph. The choice of labor curve affects the intrapartum follow-up of women and this could potentially affect childbirth experience.
Risk of complications in the late vs early days of the 42nd week of pregnancy: A nationwide cohort study
doi : 10.1111/aogs.14299
44536
Uncertainty remains about the most appropriate timing of induction of labor in late-term pregnancies. To address this issue, this study aimed to compare the risk of neonatal morbidity and pregnancy- and birth-related complications between gestational age (GA) 41+4–42+0 and GA 41+0–41+3 weeks.
Differences in microbial profile of endometrial fluid and tissue samples in women with in vitro fertilization failure are driven by Lactobacillus abundance
doi : 10.1111/aogs.14297
44589
The endometrial microbiota has been linked to several gynecological disorders, including infertility. It has been shown that the microbial profile of endometrium could have a role in fertilization and pregnancy outcomes. In this study we aim to assess the microbial community of endometrial tissue (ET) and endometrial fluid (EF) samples in women receiving in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. We also search for possible associations between chronic endometritis (CE) and endometrial microbiota.
Fetal central nervous system anomalies according to RT-PCR and trimester of maternal infection with Zika virus: A prospective cohort study
doi : 10.1111/aogs.14301
44544
In October 2015, an epidemic of Zika began in Colombia’s geographic areas with a high population of mosquitoes of the genus Aedes. We aimed to describe the fetal brain ultrasound findings in pregnant women with active symptoms or a history of symptoms suggestive of Zika virus (ZIKV) infection.
Psychological well-being and worries among pregnant women in the first trimester during the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic in Denmark compared with a historical group: AÂ hospital-based cross-sectional study
doi : 10.1111/aogs.14303
44544
A pandemic may negatively influence psychological well-being in the individual. We aimed to assess the potential influence of the first national lockdown in Denmark (March to June 2020) due to the COVID-19 pandemic on psychological well-being and the content and degree of worries among pregnant women in early pregnancy.
A force-measuring device combined with ultrasound-based elastography for assessment of the uterine cervix
doi : 10.1111/aogs.14309
44581
In this feasibility study, we hypothesize that the evaluation of cervical biomechanical strength can be improved if cervical length measurement is supplemented with quantitative elastography, which is a technique based on conventional ultrasound elastography combined with a force-measuring device. Our aims were to: (a) develop a force-measuring device; (b) introduce a cervical elastography index (CEI) and a cervical strength index (CSI; defined as cervical length × CEI); (c) evaluate how these indexes assess the cervical softening that takes place during normal pregnancy; and (d) how these indexes predict the cervical dilatation time from 4 to 10 cm.
Reproductive changes among women in their 40s: A cross-sectional study
doi : 10.1111/aogs.14302
44566
The aim was to describe and compare changes in the reproductive pattern of women in their 40s observed over a decade in Scandinavia.
Cyclic activity of signal transduction pathways in fimbrial epithelium of the human fallopian tube
doi : 10.1111/aogs.14306
44549
The local environment of the fallopian tube represents the optimal conditions for reproductive processes. To maintain tissue homeostasis, signal transduction pathways are thought to play a pivotal role. Enhancing our understanding of functional signal transduction pathway activity is important to be able to clarify the role of aberrant signal transduction pathway activity leading to female subfertility and other tubal diseases. Therefore, in this study we investigate the influence of the hormonal cycle on the activity of key signal transduction pathways in the fimbrial epithelium of morphologically normal fallopian tubes.
