Placental size and umbilical vein volume blood flow Open
Introduction The fetus receives oxygen and nutrition from the placenta through the umbilical vein. There is a large variation in placental size and placental size relative to fetal size (placental–fetal ratio). We studied whether placental…

The association of adolescent to midlife weight change with age at natural menopause: a population study of 263 586 women in Norway Open
Age at menopause varies considerably among women and is linked to health after menopause. Body mass index is associated with age at natural menopause, but the influence of weight change remains unclear. Thus, we studied associations of ado…

Development and validation of prediction models for fetal growth restriction and birthweight: an individual participant data meta-analysis Open
Background Fetal growth restriction is associated with perinatal morbidity and mortality. Early identification of women having at-risk fetuses can reduce perinatal adverse outcomes. Objectives To assess the predictive performance of existi…

Placental size at gestational week 36: Comparisons between ongoing pregnancies and deliveries Open
Introduction We aimed to compare placental size and placental size relative to fetal size (ratio) in ongoing pregnancies examined by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at gestational week 36 with placental size among all deliveries at gestat…

The dose–response relationship of pre-menopausal alcohol consumption with age at menopause: a population study of 280 497 women in Norway Open
Background Previous research suggests that alcohol consumption is associated with high age at menopause. Yet, knowledge about the dose–response relationship is inconsistent. Thus, we studied the pattern of the association of pre-menopausal…

Is the increasing prevalence of labor induction accompanied by changes in pregnancy outcomes? An observational study of all singleton births at gestational weeks 37–42 in Norway during 1999–2019 Open
Introduction Induction of labor is often performed to prevent adverse perinatal and maternal outcomes, and has become increasingly common. We studied whether changes in prevalence of labor induction in gestational weeks 37–42 weeks were ac…

EP39.02: Placental size at gestational week 27 and 37: differences between the intrauterine placental size and the placentas after birth Open
We compared intrauterine placental size with placental size after birth at gestational week 27 and 37, and placental size relative to fetal size (placental to fetal ratio) with placental size relative to newborn size (placental to newborn …

Is the risk of cardiovascular disease in women with pre-eclampsia modified by very low or very high offspring birth weight? A nationwide cohort study in Norway Open
Objectives To examine whether the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in women with pre-eclampsia is modified by very low or very high offspring birth weight. Further, we studied whether diabetes in pregnancy modified this risk. Design Na…

The impact of the introduction of intrapartum fetal <span>ECG ST</span> segment analysis. A population study Open
Introduction ST segment analysis (STAN) of the fetal electrocardiogram was introduced as an adjunct to cardiotocography for intrapartum fetal monitoring 30 years ago. We examined the impact of the introduction of STAN on changes in the occ…

Percentiles of intrauterine placental volume and placental volume relative to fetal volume: A prospective magnetic resonance imaging study Open
At gestational week 27, the placental volume was about half the size of the fetal volume, whereas at week 37, the placental volume was about one third of the fetal volume. This finding suggests that placental growth was less prominent than…
