The Contribution of AIDA (Artificial Intelligence Dystocia Algorithm) to Cesarean Section Within Robson Classification Group.

Global cesarean section (CS) rates continue to rise, with the Robson classification widely used for analysis. However, Robson Group 2A patients (nulliparous women with induced labor) show disproportionately high CS rates that cannot be fully explained by demographic factors alone. This study explored how the Artificial Intelligence Dystocia Algorithm (AIDA) could enhance the Robson system by providing detailed information on geometric dystocia, thereby facilitating better understanding of factors contributing to CS and developing more targeted reduction strategies.

Artificial Intelligence Dystocia Algorithm (AIDA) as a Decision Support System in Transverse Fetal Head Position.

Transverse fetal head position during labor is associated with increased rates of operative deliveries and cesarean sections. Traditional assessment methods rely on digital examination, which can be inaccurate in cases of prolonged labor. Intrapartum ultrasound offers improved diagnostic capabilities, but standardized interpretation frameworks are needed.

Artificial Intelligence and Uterine Fibroids: A Useful Combination for Diagnosis and Treatment.

This manuscript examines the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in the diagnosis and treatment of uterine fibroids and uterine sarcomas, offering a comprehensive assessment of AI-supported diagnostic and therapeutic techniques. Through the use of radiomics, machine learning, and deep neural network models, AI shows promise in identifying benign and malignant uterine lesions, directing therapeutic decisions, and improving diagnostic accuracy. It also demonstrates significant capabilities in the timely detection of fibroids.

AIDA (Artificial Intelligence Dystocia Algorithm) in Prolonged Dystocic Labor: Focus on Asynclitism Degree.

Asynclitism, a misalignment of the fetal head with respect to the plane of passage through the birth canal, represents a significant obstetric challenge. High degrees of asynclitism are associated with labor dystocia, difficult operative delivery, and cesarean delivery. Despite its clinical relevance, the diagnosis of asynclitism and its influence on the outcome of labor remain matters of debate.

Localization of Catecholaminergic Neurofibers in Pregnant Cervix as a Possible Myometrial Pacemaker.

In eutocic labor, the autonomic nervous system is dominated by the parasympathetic system, which ensures optimal blood flow to the uterus and placenta. This study is focused on the detection of the quantitative presence of catecholamine (C) neurofibers in the internal uterine orifice (IUO) and in the lower uterine segment (LUS) of the pregnant uterus, which could play a role in labor and delivery. A total of 102 women were enrolled before their submission to a scheduled cesarean section (CS); patients showed a singleton fetus in a cephalic presentation outside labor.

Artificial Intelligence, Intrapartum Ultrasound and Dystocic Delivery: AIDA (Artificial Intelligence Dystocia Algorithm), a Promising Helping Decision Support System.

The position of the fetal head during engagement and progression in the birth canal is the primary cause of dystocic labor and arrest of progression, often due to malposition and malrotation. The authors performed an investigation on pregnant women in labor, who all underwent vaginal digital examination by obstetricians and midwives as well as intrapartum ultrasonography to collect four "geometric parameters", measured in all the women. All parameters were measured using artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms, called AIDA (artificial intelligence dystocia algorithm), which incorporates a human-in-the-loop approach, that is, to use AI (artificial intelligence) algorithms that prioritize the physician's decision and explainable artificial intelligence (XAI).
