This study aimed to determine the prevalence and trend of HG over time, identify risk factors for any and multiple HG health service visits during pregnancy, and investigate HG recurrence across pregnancies.Material and MethodsThis population‐based record linkage cohort study featured births in New South Wales, Australia from 2010 to 2019. Hospital and emergency data collections were used to identify health service visits for HG using relevant diagnosis codes and were linked to the corresponding pregnancy on the birth data set. Outcomes included any HG and multiple HG visits during pregnancy, and HG recurrence across pregnancies. Annual HG prevalence was calculated, and negative binomial regression was used to examine standardized prevalence trends. Risk factors for any HG and multiple HG visits within a pregnancy were examined using Robust Poisson models with generalized estimating equations and Prentice–Williams–Peterson Gap Time models, respectively. Rates and risk of recurrence were calculated for women with a second and third pregnancy.ResultsOf the 955 107 pregnancies, 21 702 (2.3%) were classified as HG. There was an average annual increase of 6.8% (95% CI 5.3–8.3) in HG prevalence. Younger maternal age, multiple pregnancies, and selected preexisting conditions were associated with an increased risk of HG, with the strongest factor being HG in any previous pregnancy (risk ratio 8.92, 99% CI 8.43–9.44). Hyperemesis gravidarum recurrence at the second (28.9%) and third (54.7%) pregnancies was high.ConclusionsHyperemesis gravidarum history is the strongest risk factor for HG, which has implications for counseling and care that women receive around pregnancy.","PeriodicalId":6990,"journal":{"name":"Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142211588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Limited studies compare vaginal dinoprostone inserts with different oral misoprostol dosages, considering parity influence. This study explores the distinctions among 10 mg vaginal dinoprostone inserts and oral misoprostol 25 μg every 2 and every 4 h for labor induction, stratified by parity.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Material and Methods</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>This retrospective cohort study involved 607 participants across two hospitals. The primary outcome, time from induction to delivery, and secondary outcomes, including mode of delivery and maternal and fetal safety, were assessed.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Results</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Patient characteristics revealed differences in indication for labor induction, with the dinoprostone cohort having fewer post-term and premature rupture of membranes cases but more intrauterine growth restriction/small-for-gestational age. Both oral misoprostol regimens showed a shorter time to delivery interval compared to the dinoprostone cohort (median: 1380 min [IQR 1381.0] and 1127.0 min [IQR 1214.0] vs 1631.5 [IQR 1736.2], <i>p</i> < 0.001 and <i>p</i> = 0.014). Only the difference between oral misoprostol q2h and vaginal dinoprostone remained significant for nulliparous but not multiparous women, losing significance over all the population after adjusting for confounding factors. The proportion of women giving birth within 24 h did not significantly differ between misoprostol q2h and dinoprostone after adjusting for confounders. When comparing misoprostol q4h with dinoprostone after confounder adjustment, an increased time to delivery interval for misoprostol q4h was found (<i>p</i> = 0.001). Both oral misoprostol regimens exhibited fewer meconium-stained liquor (miso q4h: OR 0.44, miso q2h: OR 0.34) and cesarean sections (miso q4h: OR 0.48, miso q2h: OR 0.53) compared to dinoprostone, even after adjustment for confounders.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusions</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Our study suggests that oral misoprostol 25 μg q4h is less effective than 10 mg vaginal dinoprostone for labor induction if parity and indication for induction are adjusted for, particularly in multiparous women. In terms of side effects, oral misoprostol regimens seem superior to vaginal dinoprostone. Our data support the individualized use of different agents for labor induction according to parity, indication for induction, bishop score, and women's preference.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":6990,"journal":{"name":"Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica","volume":"103 11","pages":"2306-2313"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11502454/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142118677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
