Problem Chronic endometritis ( CE ) is a poorly investigated and probably underestimated pathology, which may cause abnormal uterine bleeding AUB ), pain, reproductive failures. Due to undefined symptoms the normal presence of leukocytes in endometrial mucosa, diagnosis be missed. Fluid hysteroscopy reliable technique for diagnosing this pathology.

Abstract The vaginal microbiota of healthy women is dominated by lactobacilli, which exerts important health-promoting effects to the host. In present study, 261 lactobacilli isolated from vagina were screened for their potential probiotic characteristics. Safety features (haemolytic activity, antibiotic susceptibility, bile salt hydrolase activity) and functional properties (resistance low pH salts, lysozyme tolerance, gastrointestinal survival, antagonistic activity against pathogens,...
Abstract The healthy vaginal microbiota is dominated by Lactobacillus spp., which provide an important critical line of defense against pathogens, as well giving beneficial effects to the host. We characterized L . gasseri 1A‐TV, fermentum 18A‐TV, and crispatus 35A‐TV, from premenopausal women, for their potential probiotic activities. antimicrobial 3 strains combination clinical urogenital bacteria were evaluated together with activities metabolites produced cell‐free supernatants (CFSs)....
Background: Cervical dysplasia persistence/recurrence has a great impact on women's health and quality of life. In this study, we investigated whether prognostic nomogram may improve risk assessment after primary conization. Methods: This is retrospective multi-institutional study based charts consecutive patients undergoing conization between 1 January 2010 31 December 2014. A assessing the importance different variables was built. cohort treated 2015 30 June 2016 used to validate nomogram....
