Objective To determine changes in the incidence of vaginal deliveries, cesarean sections, and forceps deliveries and their potential association with fetal, early neonatal, and perinatal mortality rates over time. Methods
Our aim was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MCA-PSV) Doppler measurements in twin anemia polycythemia sequence (TAPS). In a consecutive cohort of monochorionic twin pregnancies with... more
