Evolving Frameworks for the Foundation and Practice of Electronic Fetal Monitoring by Mark I. Evans, David W. Britt, Shara M. Evans, Lawrence D. Devoe, Yang Pan

“…Part of EFM's poor performance with respect to these outcomes arises from a fundamental misunderstanding of the differences between screening and diagnostic tests, subjective classifications of fetal heart rate (FHR) patterns that lead to large inter-observer variability in its interpretation, failure to appreciate early stages of fetal compromise, and poor statistical modeling for its use as a screening test. …”

Proactive and Reactive Response Inhibition across the Lifespan. by Peter Smittenaar, Robb B Rutledge, Peter Zeidman, Rick A Adams, Harriet Brown, Glyn Lewis, Raymond J Dolan

“…Both forms of control rely on overlapping frontostriatal pathways known to deteriorate in healthy aging, an age-related decline that occurs at an accelerated rate in men compared to women. Here we ask whether these patterns of age-related decline are reflected in similar changes in proactive and reactive inhibitory control across the lifespan. …”
