Ovulatory disorders are common causes of amenorrhea, abnormal uterine bleeding and infertility frequent manifestations polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). There many potential contributors to ovulatory dysfunction that challenge clinicians, trainees, educators, those who perform basic, translational, clinical epidemiological research. Similarly, therapeutic approaches potentially involve a spectrum lifestyle, psychological, medical procedural interventions. Collaborative research, effective...
Dėl didėjančio susidomėjimo gyvenimo kokybe ir laime bei jų variacijomis, vis labiau aktualu tirti kokybę įvairiose žmonių srityse. Nėščiųjų gyvenimo kokybė yra specifinė sritis, o mokslinėje literatūroje randama tyrimais grįstų faktų, kad nėščiųjų gali turėti įtakos nėštumo eigai perinatalinei baigčiai. Gyvenimo kokybę metu paveikti fiziniai, psichiniai, socialiniai aplinkos veiksniai, tarp – buvęs nevaisingumas jo gydymas pagalbinio apvaisinimo procedūra. Yra žinoma apie pasaulyje...
This good clinical practice paper provides an overview of the current evidence around second stage care, highlighting challenges and importance maintaining high-quality, safe, respectful care in all settings. It includes a series recommendations based on best available regarding length stage, judicious use episiotomy, competent attendants adequate resource to facilitate aspects management, from physiological birth assisted vaginal delivery cesarean at full dilatation. The labor is...
Abstract Background To compare specific dietary and behavioral recommendations for hemorrhoids prevention during pregnancy. Methods This was a randomized, single-blind, multicenter trial conducted in three different clinical centers. Patients were randomly allocated into two groups ratio of 1:1. Intervention consisted counseling. The primary outcome this study the rate at time discharge from obstetrics unit. Categorical variables compared by Chi-Squared or Fisher exact tests, as appropriate....
Abstract Objective To compare vaginal culture results between prepubertal girls with and without vulvovaginitis, obtain an overview of the most commonly encountered microbes. Design Prospective descriptive study. Setting Outpatient clinic Vilnius University Hospital Santariskiu Klinikos during September 2011–December 2012. Patients 115 vulvovaginitis symptoms additionally 20 age-matched asymptomatic girls. Methods Each girl had a smear carried out using sterile swab from introitus or lower...
Infections are among the leading causes of maternal mortality and morbidity. The Global Maternal Sepsis Neonatal Initiative, launched in 2016 by WHO partners, sought to reduce burden infections sepsis was basis upon which Study (GLOSS) implemented 2017. In this Article, we aimed describe availability facility resources services analyse their association with outcomes.GLOSS a facility-based, prospective, 1-week inception cohort study 713 health-care facilities 52 countries included 2850...
Abstract Background Pregnancy-related infections are important contributors to maternal sepsis and mortality. We aimed describe clinical, microbiological characteristics use of antibiotics by source infection country income, among hospitalized women with suspected or confirmed pregnancy-related infections. Methods used data from WHO Global Maternal Sepsis Study (GLOSS) on in women, 52 low-middle- high-income countries conducted between November 28th December 4th, 2017, the frequencies...
When looking for the causes and treatments of infertility, much attention is paid to one reproductive tissues—the endometrium. Therefore, endometrial stem cells are an attractive target infertility studies in women unexplained origin. Menstrual blood (MenSCs) morphologically functionally similar derived directly from endometrium; with dual expression mesenchymal embryonic cell markers, they proliferate regenerate better than bone marrow cells. In addition, menstrual extracted a non-invasive...
The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is easily calculated blood test parameter, which can be used as marker to predict many inflammatory disorders. aim of this study was assess and compare the NLR in maternal with white cell (WBC) count C-reactive protein (CRP) concentration for prediction histological chorioamnionitis.This a case-control 137 woman preterm premature rupture membranes (PPROM) at gestational age between 22+ 0 34+ 6 weeks. Blood samples, collected less than 48 h before...
Purpose . To examine the uterine involution period after uncomplicated delivery in primiparous and multiparous women. Methods Longitudinal prospective study. Repeated parameters were measured endometrial contents diastolic notch observed. Measurements of women carried out labour on 1st, 3rd, 10th, 30th, 42nd, 60th postpartum days. The analysis was performed using SPSS version 21. Results median uterus are bigger group physiological puerperium, but decreasing trend is same. cavity 10th day...
<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> The objective of this study was to estimate the accuracy 22 fetal weight estimation formulas in diabetic pregnancies uncomplicated and complicated by macrosomia. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Retrospectively collected data 317 gestational diabetes mellitus 78 cases macrosomia were used study. Study inclusion criteria women diagnosed with mellitus, full-term singleton pregnancy, an interval from ultrasound delivery ≤7 days....
The aim of this study was to assess if ureaplasmas are associated with pregnancy complications and diseases in newborns. Pregnant women complaints threatening signs preterm delivery were included. A sample, taken from the endocervical canal surface cervical portion, sent local microbiology laboratory for DNA detection seven pathogens: Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma hominis, genitalium, Ureaplasma parvum, urealyticum, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Trichomonas vaginalis. Pearson Chi-Square test...
Abstract Background Improving noninvasive antenatal diagnosis of fetal inflammatory response syndrome (FIRS) can assist in the evaluation prenatal risk and reduce perinatal outcomes. This study aimed to determine whether soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) vaginally collected amniotic fluid is significant identifying FIRS after preterm premature rupture membranes before 34 weeks gestation. Methods was a prospective cohort 114 pregnant women their newborns at 22–34...
Background: Sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy in early-stage endometrial cancer is recommended over systematic lymphadenectomy due to reduced morbidity and comparable detection rates. The main objective of this study was compare the overall bilateral rates SLN using three techniques. Methods: a prospective cohort designed detect difference rate cohorts: Indocyanine green (ICG), methylene blue (MB), tracer combination (ICG + MB). Mapping characteristics, rate, number SLNs, positive SLNs...
Current clinical practice of assessing neonatal condition is based on evaluation umbilical cord arterial blood pH value rather than lactate. However, evidence shows that lactate direct and more predictive measurement or at least equal importance. This study to assess compare values for predicting short-term outcomes.A retrospective cohort was conducted the tertiary level hospital, were sampling collected according standard procedures. Neonatal morbidity registered if one following conditions...
Human endometrium derived mesenchymal stem cells (hEndSCs) offer a great promise for regenerative medicine and reproductive system disorders treatment methods based on cell therapy due to their broad differentiation potential highly efficient proliferation. In our study, we investigated the characteristics of hEndSCs that were isolated from two sources: menstrual blood, which both contain endometrial origin cells. Changes in gene protein expression levels during long-term cultivation...
