Ischemia-reperfusion injury is a significant problem following reperfusion treatment for ovarian torsion. It generally caused by reactive oxygen species-induced damage. Antioxidant agents, such as curcumin, may protect ovaries from this adverse effect. The aim of the present randomized, controlled study was to evaluate short-term protective effect curcumin on rat model ischemia-reperfusion injury. A total 30 female Wistar albino rats, weighing 160-230 g, were divided into 2 groups depending...

After a routine obstetric examination at obstetrics gynecology clinic institution, all subjects submitted to an fingernails toenails. Only that had developed were recorded. Any occurred before start not...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate relationship between ovarian volume (OV) and mean platelet (MPV) in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Hormonal parameters lipid profile cases, their OV were also assessed. Bilateral 210 newly diagnosed PCOS patients 100 healthy non-hirsute measured by ultrasonography. Blood samples obtained for full blood count, hormone levels profiles. It found that MPV increased gradually as increased. This implies a higher risk hypercoagulability...

Two hundred eighty PCOS cases were taken into study. For all cases, DHEAS/TT ratio calculated. median value 4.40. Patients an lower than 4.40 included Group 1 a higher 2. two groups compared terms hormonal, biochemical parameters. Body mass...

Groups compared according to development. predictors analyzed by regression analysis. Results: Median Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) scores groups 16 6,...

Endometrial biopsy is a common procedure for the investigation of many gynecological disorders including abnormal uterine bleeding, postmenopausal cytology and infertility. Most women experience some degree discomfort pain during procedure. Pain may occur dilation cervix insertion catheter endometrial biopsy, which further aggravates by inducing contraction.To determine levels comparing intrauterine instillation levobupivacaine or lidocaine with placebo in randomized, double-blinded trial...

The objective of this study was to determine if maternal body fat composition and mass index were associated with hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) in the first trimester pregnancy. Healthy pregnant women (n = 30) without nausea vomiting (control group) HG 54; group), all singleton pregnancy at 6-14 weeks gestational age, included. Body measured before during Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) subcutaneous thickness Comparison groups revealed that VAT pre-pregnancy but not significantly higher group...

Method: In randomized prospective study, 1272 women were divided into two groups. Povidone-iodine after closure skin in first group. second group same way but irrigated before tissue. Result: Surgical site (SSI) developed 12 600 patients...

The aim of this study was to examine the hearing levels menopausal and premenopausal women same age evaluate effect tibolone on hearing. involved 83 postmenopausal women. Cases using were grouped into group (T-group) without any hormone therapy non-tibolone (NT-group). A total 45 taken as controls. Hearing both ears measured by audiometry. Significantly lower threshold at different detected in control compared with other groups. Postmenopausal have poorer thresholds still menstruating age....

Objective: To find optimal 100-g 3-h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) threshold levels for diagnosis of gestational diabetes (GDM) in Turkish pregnant women. Methods: This study was conducted with 808 women screened GDM between 24–28 weeks gestation using the 1-h 50-g challenge (GCT) a subsequent OGTT confirmation if screen positive. The values obtained were analysed by both Carpenter and Coustan (C&C criteria) National Diabetes Data Group (NDDG) criteria IGT. Optimal cutoff population...

To compare the mean platelet volume (MPV) of pregnant women with mild glycemic disorders that healthy to find whether these are risk factors for future cardiovascular disease. Materials and methods: Fasting blood glucose 50-g oral loading were measured. A 100-g, 3-h tolerance test was done when plasma ≥140 mg/dL, following a test. According results, 4 groups formed: control, impaired fasting glucose, false positive test, tolerance. The hematologic parameters compared in all groups. Results:...

Pelvic organ prolapse is a multifactorial disorder in which extracellular matrix defects are implicated. Fibrillin-1 level reduced stress urinary incontinence. In Marfan syndrome, associated with mutations Fibrillin-1, pelvic floor disorders commonly observed. We hypothesize that gene expression altered prolapse.Thirty women undergoing colporrhaphy or hysterectomy because of cystocele, rectocele, cystorectocele, uterine were assigned to study group, and thirty undergone for nonpelvic...
