The Use of Letrozole or Mifepristone for Pretreatment of Medical Termination of Pregnancy
Medical termination of pregnancy (mTOP) generally involves using either a combined regimen consisting of mifepristone and misoprostol, or a misoprostol-only regimen. Complete abortion rates of first trimester mTOP with the use of misoprostol-only regimen varies between 74-88%. With the addition of mifepristone as pre-treatment drug, this improves success rates to …
Comparison Between a Mindfulness-Based Program and Standard Therapeutic Follow-Up During Pregnancy
This study aims to evaluate the effects of a 6-week mindfulness meditation program in pregnant women, compared with a psychological support control program. Participants in the mindfulness arm will complete one instructor-led meditation session per week and five guided audio meditation sessions at home each week. The primary objectives are …
Breathing for Two: Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training for Supporting Healthy Blood Pressure in Pregnancy
This is an interventional study that will test whether a breathing exercise called Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training (IMST) can safely and effectively lower blood pressure during late pregnancy. The goal is to see if a home-based breathing training can help prevent or reduce high blood pressure disorders in pregnancy. The …
The Role of Ultrasonography in Pregnancy in the Study of Fetal Central Nervous System Malformations
The aim of this observational study is to evaluate the correlation between new ultrasound patterns and fetal central nervous system (CNS) malformations.
Iron Absorption From IFA and MMS Supplements in Kenyan Women During the Second Trimester of Pregnancy
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to part of the brain called the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (VMPFC) can treat a symptom called rumination in adults with major depression that has not responded to at least one medication trial.

Vitamin D is best known for keeping our bones healthy, but growing research suggests it may also play a role in fertility. Many IVF clinics now routinely check vitamin D levels and prescribe supplements before treatment, but the science is still unclear on whether this actually improves the chances of …
Advanced Fetal Imaging - Phase II
The goal of Advanced Fetal Imaging - Phase II is to advance fetal MRI imaging by designing MRI coils specifically for pregnant women and testing recently developed MRI image acquisition techniques. The investigators aim to more reliably obtain higher quality fetal MRI images when compared to current clinical fetal MRI.
