Randomized Controlled Trial
Superior hypogastric plexus block as a new method of pain relief after abdominal hysterectomy: double-blind, randomised clinical trial of efficacy.
To determine whether superior hypogastric plexus block performed during abdominal hysterectomy decreases postoperative opioid consumption and pain. ⋯ Superior hypogastric plexus block during abdominal hysterectomy lowers opioid consumption.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Diagnostic workup for postmenopausal bleeding: a randomised controlled trial.
To evaluate the effectiveness of hysteroscopy for the detection and treatment of endometrial polyps versus expectant management in women with postmenopausal bleeding (PMB), a thickened endometrium and benign endometrial sampling. ⋯ In women with PMB, hysteroscopy does not reduce recurrent bleeding but is warranted to detect focal malignancy.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Prolonged latency of preterm prelabour rupture of membranes and neurodevelopmental outcomes: a secondary analysis.
To determine whether prolonged latency after preterm prelabour rupture of membranes (PPROM) is associated with an increased risk for adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. ⋯ Prolonged PPROM was associated with motor and mental Bayley scores of <70.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Magnesium sulfate, chorioamnionitis, and neurodevelopment after preterm birth.
To assess the neuroprotective effect of magnesium sulfate (MgSO4 ) in preterm children exposed to chorioamnionitis. ⋯ MgSO4 was not associated with improved neurodevelopmental outcome in setting of chorioamnionitis.
