Clinical application of high-risk scoring on an obstetric service.
TL;DR: It is suggested that this risk scoring system can be used effectively in a clinical setting to identify patients at increased risk for neonatal depression and perinatal death.

The effect of delivery route on outcome in breech presentation.
Mortimer G. Rosen,Lawrence Chik +1 more
TL;DR: In both neonatal death and morbidity, birth weight and modified Dubowitz score explained the largest proportion of the variance for outcome in breech presentation.

Clinical estimation of gestational age: rules for avoiding preterm delivery.
Roger H. Hertz,Robert J. Sokol,James D. Knoke,Mortimer G. Rosen,Lawrence Chik,Victor J. Hirsch +5 more
TL;DR: In order to be 90% certain that an infant will be mature at delivery, a reliable LMP must have been noted for 42 weeks prior to birth, the FFH heard for 21 weeks, and Q felt for 25 weeks, these findings suggest that carefully obtained historical and physical examination information remains a cornerstone of appropriate obstetric care.

Regular and irregular human fetal respiratory movement
TL;DR: It would appear that the correlation of regular fetal respiratory movement with fetal quiet periods in the term fetus adds additional evidence that a quiet sleep state may exist in theterm fetus.

MOMs (multiples of the median) and DADs (disciminant aneuploidy detection): Improved specificity and cost-effectiveness of biochemial screening for aneuploidy with DADs
Mark I. Evans,Lawrence Chik,Joseph E. O’Brien,Bernadette Chin,Elena Dvorin,Mazin Ayoub,Eric L. Krivchenia,Joel W. Ager,Mark P. Johnson,Robert J. Sokol +9 more
TL;DR: By use of existing methods, double screening is equally as effective as triple screening, so that the expense of estriol is unnecessary, and the DADs approach, by allowing for variable weighting of parameters, lowers the at risk percentage and will permit a much more flexible approach as new parameters become available.
