In Brief OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of mediolateral episiotomy on puerperal pelvic floor strength and dysfunction (urinary anal incontinence, genital prolapse). METHODS: Five hundred nineteen primiparous women were enrolled 3 months after vaginal delivery. Puerperae divided in 2 groups: group A (254 women) comprised who received B (265 with intact perineum first- second-degree spontaneous perineal lacerations. Each woman was questioned about urogynecological symptoms examined by...
Objectives 1. To assess the reproducibility of an electronic ultrasonographic technique for measurement urethral angulation; 2. test ability angle and bladder neck mobility to predict genuine stress incontinence; 3. compare ultrasound variables in incontinent women controls. Design Case–control study. Population Twenty‐three 50 Methods Electronic measurements distance between symphysis pubis, pubis line midline (alpha angle) proximal distal urethra (beta by means perineal ultrasonography...
In Brief OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the outcome of pregnancies complicated by first-trimester intrauterine hematoma. METHODS: An analysis was performed on 248 cases. The pregnancy correlated with hematoma volume, gestational age (weeks), and maternal (years). RESULTS: One hundred eighty-two cases were eligible for study. Clinical complications occurred in 38.5% (adverse group). Spontaneous abortion (14.3%), fetal growth restriction (7.7%), preterm delivery (6.6%) most frequent clinical...
BACKGROUND: The objectives of this study were (i) to evaluate whether the combined use Syto 16 and 7-amino-actinomycin-D (7-AAD) allows detection sperm apoptosis (ii) describe a new multiparameter flow cytometric method assess simultaneously concentration (SC), viability as well leukocyte concentration. METHODS: Semen samples from 68 patients evaluated according World Health Organization (WHO) criteria (normal, n = 26; abnormal, 42). activated caspases before after betulinic acid (BA)...
Objective To assess the effects of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on visual function after menopause. Design This study was conducted 80 postmenopausal women aged 52 to 70 years. Women were randomly divided into two groups: 40 treated by oral HRT (equine conjugated estrogens 0.625 mg/day + dydrogesterone 5 in a continuous combined regimen), and not with hormones (control group). Each woman underwent contrast sensitivity test, Schirmer an evaluation intraocular pressure before starting 1...

OBJECTIVE: To determine the relation between postpartum perineal trauma and development of puerperal pelvic floor dysfunctions. METHODS: A prospective study was conducted on 218 primiparae immediately after vaginal delivery. Women were divided in three groups according to trauma: group (n = 171) intact perineum or superficial tear, B 39) muscle tears, C 8) anal sphincter tears with without disruption rectal mucosa. Two months later, each woman questioned about urogynecologic symptoms...
Abstract Background The primary aim of this study was to compare the quality life between women with obstetric anal sphincter injury (OASI) and intact perineum or minor vaginal tears following their first birth through a validated urogynaecological questionnaire. As secondary aim, we wanted identify specific symptoms for pelvic floor dysfunction after birth. Methods One hundred thirty-three cases (III- IV-degree tears) 133 controls (intact I- II-degree tear) were asked fill PFDI-20...

Methods. Comparative design comprising 70 matched pairs primiparous mothers. Each woman was questioned about urogynecologic examined by digital test, vaginal perineometry uroflowmetric stop test score 3 months after delivery.
