Maternal-Fetal Medicine
Tags
Summary
The book is distinctive in being co-authored by Chinese and international experts in obstetrics and gynecology and maternal-fetal medicine, with the aim of creating a comprehensive work in the field for use as a training textbook for subspecialists.
Editor's review
In terms of professional value, the book's standout feature is its close integration of rigorous clinical thinking with cutting-edge evidence-based evidence. Drawing on extensive clinical practice and research, Professor Yang Huixia and her team translate complex pathophysiological mechanisms into clear, actionable clinical decision pathways. Their discussion of pregnancy comorbidities and complications goes beyond diagnosis and treatment to emphasize long-term maternal and child outcomes, reflecting modern perinatal medicine's shift from a disease-centered to a health-centered approach.
For readers, the book's value lies in the systematic and open cognitive framework it builds. It is both a tool for guiding daily clinical work and, through the summary and outlook at the end of each chapter, an inspiration for readers to think about the future direction of the discipline. The extensive use of flowcharts, tables and imaging figures greatly enhances readability and practicality. Note that medical knowledge advances quickly, so readers applying specific protocols should still take the latest clinical guidelines and individual circumstances into account.

About the author
Yang Huixia is an author about whom limited public information is available, yet the six works held in the collection sketch the direction of her writing. Her books concentrate on medicine, especially obstetrics and gynecology and maternal-fetal medicine, and include Practical Obstetric Operative Techniques, Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy (2nd Edition), Obstetrics and Gynecology (2nd Edition), Clinical Handbook of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Maternal-Fetal Medicine, and a question bank for standardized residency training in obstetrics and gynecology. These works combine clinical procedures, disease diagnosis and treatment, and residency training, covering both operative techniques and systematic textbook knowledge with exercise practice. Overall, her writing serves clinical reference and medical education, and is practical for learners and practitioners in obstetrics and gynecology and maternal-fetal medicine.
Public information about Zheng Qintian is limited; he is known only as an author in the medical field, with three works in the library catalog, commonly classified under medicine. His representative works include Maternal-Fetal Medicine, the Handbook of Obstetrics and Gynecology (2nd Edition), and an Exercise Collection for Standardized Residency Training in Obstetrics and Gynecology, covering maternal-fetal medicine, a clinical handbook of obstetrics and gynecology, and training exercises for resident physicians. Judging from these subjects, his writing addresses clinical practice and medical education in obstetrics and gynecology, combining professional reference with training practice in a practical, needs-oriented manner. As his dates of birth and death, nationality, education, and positions remain unconfirmed, no speculation is made here; this introduction is based solely on the available bibliographic information.
Yu Yanhong: publicly available information is limited, and her writing direction can currently be understood only from the works held in the library. The five existing titles all belong to medicine, covering hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, maternal-fetal medicine, midwifery techniques, standardized residency training in obstetrics and gynecology, and the management of thalassemia, indicating a focus on obstetrics, maternal-fetal health, and related clinical topics such as the prevention and management of difficult labor and transfusion-dependent diseases. Judging from the titles and categories, her editorial approach emphasizes professional standards and clinical practicality, including both specialist reference books and exercise collections for standardized residency training, combining theoretical organization with operational guidance. Overall, Yu Yanhong has developed a relatively concentrated body of writing on obstetrics, gynecology, and maternal and child health, contributing positively to the organization and dissemination of professional knowledge in these fields.
