Head circumference catch-up growth among preterm very low birth weight infants: effect on neurodevelopmental outcome.

abstract：:To determine if oxytocin dosage used for labor induction differed in obese and lean women, we analyzed records of patients who underwent term labor induction and delivered vaginally. Each of a cohort of 27 patients with a body mass index (BMI) >40 kg/m2 was matched with a patient with a BMI <28 kg/m2 for gestational a...
