Sequence of images showing the stages of a normal vaginal delivery (NVD) Sequence of images showing stages of an instrumental vaginal delivery. A vaginal delivery is the birth of offspring in mammals (babies in humans) through the vagina (also called the "birth canal"). [1] It is the most common method of childbirth worldwide. [2]
These physicians and surgeons variously provide care across the whole spectrum of normal and abnormal births and pathological labour conditions. Categorically specialised obstetricians are qualified surgeons, so they can undertake surgical procedures relating to childbirth. Some family practitioners or general practitioners also perform ...

Alternative pathway hemolytic assay ("AH50") can be used in conjunction to indicate if there is a terminal pathway deficiency (CH50 and AH50 both are low), classical pathway deficiency (CH50 low, AH50 normal) or alternative pathway deficiency (AH50 low, CH50 normal).
A woman who underwent a trial immunotherapy as a child for neuroblastoma — an aggressive nerve tissue tumor that occurs often in children under 5 — has since been in remission for 18 years ...
The Hedgehog signaling pathway is a signaling pathway that transmits information to embryonic cells required for proper cell differentiation. Different parts of the embryo have different concentrations of hedgehog signaling proteins. The pathway also has roles in the adult. Diseases associated with the malfunction of this pathway include cancer ...
Pelvimetry is the measurement of the female pelvis. [1] It can theoretically identify cephalo-pelvic disproportion, which is when the capacity of the pelvis is inadequate to allow the fetus to negotiate the birth canal.
Placental progesterone is the feedstock for the 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) produced via the backdoor pathway found operating in multiple non-gonadal tissues of the fetus, [45] whereas deficiencies in this pathway lead to undervirilization of the male fetus, resulting in incomplete development of the male genitalia.
