Article Abstract
Objective: Spontaneous delayed uterine rupture is life-threatening and extremely rare following sexual intercourse in postpartum. Here, we present a case of delayed uterine rupture that occurred 4 weeks after cesarean section following intercourse.
Case Report: A 31-year-old postpartum woman, gravida 4, para 1, abortion 3, underwent a cesarean section for prolonged labor. She was transferred to our hospital in shock status with brisk vaginal bleeding following intercourse 4 weeks after delivery. An emergency subtotal hysterectomy was performed to stop the bleeding. The pathology confirmed tissue necrosis and suture granuloma at the previous surgical wound.
Conclusion: The presented case demonstrated that delayed uterine rupture may occur even 4 weeks after delivery following intercourse, without any obvious abdominal pain or infection signs, which deserved the attention of obstetricians.

During early pregnancy in mice, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) regulates embryo implantation by activating the JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway. The STAT3 pathway has been recognized to play a critical role in embryo implantation; however, it remains unclear whether STAT3 activation alone is sufficient to induce implantation. In this study, we investigated the effects of RO8191, a potential STAT3 activator, on embryo implantation through a series of studies with different mouse models.

Background: Previous studies did not investigate the effect of gradually increasing the concentration of low-dose oxytocin on mother and newborn outcomes. The purpose of this study was to look at the relationship between oxytocin responsiveness and outcomes for both mothers and newborns during labor induction.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted at Nantong Maternal and Child Health Hospital, and participants were divided into the early reaction to oxytocin group and the later reaction to oxytocin group based on oxytocin response.
