New research from Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Highlights from the May issue ofUOG

The May issue of Ultrasound in Obstetrics

and Gynecology illustrates the range of

predictive tests and interventions for preterm

birth (PTB) that are under investigation.

Included are articles on the effectiveness of

established and emerging screening methods

and their implementation in clinical practice,

as well as preventative methods such as

pessary or cervical cerclage. An opinion

piece by Shennan discusses some of the

relevant articles in this issue in the context of

existing literature, highlighting the often

conflicting evidence, and advising that more

input from the academic community is

required to elucidate the subtleties in differing

efficacies of both prediction and prevention of

PTB.

Virtual Issue: prediction andprevention of preterm birth

Also available this month is our Virtual Issue

on the prediction and prevention of preterm

birth. Preterm birth is a leading cause of

neonatal mortality and morbidity worldwide,

having immense clinical, personal and

economic impacts. Effective identification and

management of women who will deliver

preterm is therefore of high importance.

Whilst this has been the focus of a wealth of

research, the underlying pathophysiology of

preterm birth is largely unknown, and the

growing evidence base is often conflicting.

This new Virtual Issue from UOG presents a

series of papers reporting on predictive tests

and interventions for preterm birth, as well as

on how best to integrate them into clinical

practice. These papers are free to read for a

limited period of 2 months.

Check out other UOG Virtual

Issues, compiled by the Journal's Editorial

team.

You can also supplement your reading on

preterm birth with video lectures and CME

activities.
