Oxytocin is also available in intranasal spray form for psychiatric, endocrine and weight management use as a supplement. Intranasal oxytocin works on a different pathway than injected oxytocin, primarily along the olfactory nerve crossing the blood–brain barrier to the olfactory lobe in the brain, where dense magnocellular oxytocin neurons ...
Oxytocin is the most commonly used agent for labor induction. It is given intravenously since it is easily degraded by the body if given orally. While giving oxytocin, it is important to monitor the mother and the fetus, specifically the mother's uterine activity and the fetal heart rate.
The use of misoprostol has been extensively studied but normally in small, poorly defined studies. Only a very few countries have approved misoprostol for use in induction of labor. [citation needed] Intravenous (IV) administration of synthetic oxytocin preparations is used to artificially induce labor if it is deemed medically necessary. [1]
This category contains articles about the scholarly or professional publications concerning labour studies, labour economics, labour law, and labour history. Many labour journals, trade union-produced newsletters or newspapers may belong to additional categories or subcategories, such as those below. Non-academic publications should not be ...
But a personnel-economics analysis in its efficiency aspect would evaluate the package as to cost–benefit analysis, rather than work-effort benefits alone. [6] Personnel economics has its own Journal of Economic Literature classification code, JEL: M5 but overlaps with such labor economics subcategories as JEL: J2, J3, J4, and J5. [7]
Labour Economics is a bimonthly peer-reviewed academic journal covering labor economics. It was established in 1993 and is the official journal of the European Association of Labour Economists . It is published by Elsevier and the editor-in-chief is Arthur van Soest ( Tilburg University ).
Labour was induced or stimulated after random allocation of the mothers to one of three oxytocics (prostaglandin E2 orally, oxytocin intravenously, or demoxytocin buccally).Using as models, the neurohypophyseal nonapeptide hormone oxytocin and its analogue deaminooxytocin, several directed routes to formation of sulfur-sulfur bridges have been developed and evaluated.
It is released in response to an increase in oxytocin levels in the uterus, and stimulates both luteolytic activity and the release of oxytocin. [6] Because PGF 2α is linked with an increase in uterine oxytocin levels, there is evidence that PGF 2α and oxytocin form a positive feedback loop to facilitate the degradation of the corpus luteum.
