“…Previous preterm delivery is considered as a risk factor for preterm labour in the current pregnancy. 10 Most of the patients of both nifedipine and MgSO4 group (90% vs. 82.5%) do not have a history of preterm birth. Similar to our study, Lyell et al 2007, also concluded there is no significant difference in the distribution of previous preterm birth in both the groups in his study.…”

Preterm labour is the leading cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Preterm birth accounts for 75% of neonatal deaths and 50% of long-term morbidity including respiratory disease and neuro-developmental impairment. The use of tocolysis in women in preterm labour aims to inhibit uterine contractions and reduce perinatal morbidity and mortality associated with early delivery.To study the effect and compare the efficacy of Nifedipine and Magnesium sulphate in management of preterm labour.: This randomized controlled trial was performed on 80 women with preterm labor between 28 and 37 weeks of gestation who were randomly assigned to receive either MgSO4 or nifedipine. All patients were checked for successful prolongation of pregnancy who had not been delivered at 48 hours [primary tocolytics effects] and more than 7 days [secondary tocolytics effects] after beginning the treatment and side effects of tocolysis.: From 80 patients, 40 received nifedipine and 40 received MgSO4. There were no differences in suppression of labor pain in 24 hours, 48 hours and 7 days between the two groups. Even though there were no statistically significant differences in one-minute and five-minute Apgar scores, neonatal respiratory distress syndrome between the groups neonates of MgSO4 group had more NICU admission which is significant (p value 0.049).: Oral nifedipine is as effective as magnesium sulfate with regard to inhibition of preterm labor.

“…1. International review studies from this period provided no evidence that abortion significantly increased the risk of secondary infertility (Hogue, Cates, and Tietze 1982; Huggins and Cullins 1990). Czechoslovak demographers observed a decrease in long-term and short-term complications after induced abortions over the course of the 1960s (Vácha 1970).…”

Obedient mothers, healthy children: communication on the risks of reproduction in state-socialist Czechoslovakia

The article analyses medical communication in popular media relating to the risks in reproduction in the state-socialist Czechoslovakia between 1948 and 1989 and shows how it used emotions as an instrument to control women’s reproductive behaviour. In particular, we use an approach inspired by Donati’s (1992) political discourse analysis and by Snow and Bedford’s (1988) framing analysis to explore communication on the risk of infertility in the abortion debate, the risk of fetal abnormalities in the prenatal screening debate, and the risk of emotional deprivation and morbidity in infants in the debate on mothering practices. The analysis contributes to the knowledge on how the construction of risk in reproduction, including childcare, serves to create a moral order of motherhood by defining what constitutes ‘irresponsible’ reproductive behaviours and their associated risks, and in doing so may lead to the further marginalisation of already marginalised people. We explain how expert discourse on reproduction and care aimed at the general public worked by constructing risks, a fear of these risks, and women’s responsibility for avoiding them in order to regulate women’s behaviour through self-discipline, which worked alongside other disciplinary techniques. These techniques were applied unequally and mainly to marginalised groups of women, such as women of Roma ethnicity and single mothers.
