Filter by:The diagnostic value of Annexin V, sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, vascular endothelial growth factor and Proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-a and interleukin-6) in ovarian endometriosis and deep infiltrating endometriosis, their levels in organ-specific involvement, their relationship with symptoms, and the changes of these markers in the postoperative period will be evaluated.
According the World Health Organization (WHO), infertility is a disease of the male or female reproductive system defined by the failure to achieve a pregnancy after 12 months or more of regular unprotected sexual intercourse. In-vitro-fertilization (IVF) is considered to be a successful tool to overcome infertility. However, the current methods used to assess the ovarian reserve and to develop an optimal individualized controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) protocol have shown some limitations. Growing evidence indicates that altered renal renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and/or melatonin are linked to infertility. Aims and Objectives: The current 2 years duration study aims first to investigate the demographic and clinical profiles of patients undergoing IVF in the UAE. In the second phase of the study, we hypothesis that an altered angiotensin-melatonin axis may be considered as an unfavorable prognosis factor in poor and hyper responders undergoing IVF treatment. This hypothesis will be assessed using an observational, longitudinal, prospective clinical study to determine whether the urinary angiotensinogen and/or melatonin deficiency might be present in poor and hyper responders undergoing IVF treatment. Thus, negatively impacting the clinical pregnancy rate. Methodology: various patient's data will be collected using a questionnaire and the levels of angiotensinogen and melatonin in patient's urine will be measured using ELISA test prior to, during and after the IVF treatment. To determine whether the angiotensinogen-melatonin axis disruption affects the IVF treatment outcome, we will analyze the following parameters: the AMH, Antral Follicular Count (AFC), day 2-4 FSH levels, the stimulation cycle in regards to number of stimulation days and amount of gonadotropins used for stimulation, number of oocytes retrieved and number of mature oocytes, quality and embryo's ploidy, number of available euploid embryos and the clinical pregnancy rate after frozen embryo transfer.
In 2021, an international consensus developed a new endometriosis classification system, called AAGL 2021 Endometriosis Classification, for scoring intraoperative surgical complexity and to examine its correlation with patient-reported pain and infertility. Until now, no study has investigated the role of AAGL 2021 Endometriosis Classification in ultrasonographic assessment of patient with endometriosis. This study aims to compare the use of the AAGL 2021 Endometriosis Classification in preoperative (at ultrasound) and intraoperative (at surgery) evaluation of patients with endometriosis.
The primary purpose of this study is to compare residual ovarian function and therapeutic efficacy of surgical resection and catheter-directed sclerotherapy for ovarian endometrioma
Endometriosis usually occurs during the reproductive period of women and poses a significant burden on quality of life and social costs. The estimated prevalence in premenopausal women is 10% in clinical studies and the frequency rises to 50% in symptomatic patients with pelvic pain and infertility. Observational studies in Europe estimated the prevalence to be 8-15 per 1000 people. Fibromyalgia is a common musculoskeletal chronic painful condition that may be accompanied by cognitive impairment, somatic symptoms, fatigue, and psychiatric symptoms. The population frequency is given as 20-80 per 1000 people. Fibromyalgia is most often diagnosed in women aged 20-55 years; prevalence increases with age and is associated with a higher prevalence of comorbidities, including endocrine and genitourinary disorders. Co-existance of endometriosis and fibromyalgia is a special entity that has not been enlightened in detal yet.
The goal of this observational study is to determine the clinical validity of a deep neural network algorithm that utilizes protein biomarker detection of Endometriosis - "EndoCheck" - as an "aid in diagnosis" for endometriosis and to show validity as a diagnostic test
ENDOmiARN Salive Test is a multicentre external validation study of a salivary signature of endometriosis carried out in France in Obstetrics and Reproductive Medicine departments, in order to evaluate its performance and discuss its use in clinical practice. The clinical application is to significantly reduce the time to diagnosis and improve the care pathway for endometriosis. The study population is made up of women aged 18 to 43 years with formally diagnosed endometriosis or suspected endometriosis who are already receiving either medical (MAP) or surgical treatment as part of their routine care. The patients concerned by the study are managed without any change in the care pathway, nor any change in the therapeutic indications, nor any change in the diagnostic examinations (imaging or biology) required according to the context, which are carried out in accordance with the HAS recommendations. In this study, the management and follow-up of patients : - Are not imposed by the study: the doctor remains free to make medical prescriptions (treatments and examinations) and to determine the interval between consultation visits, - Are not modified in comparison with the usual follow-up, except for the performance of : - Collection of saliva - Electronic collection of the answers to the questionnaires completed by the patient
This study evaluated the use of ultrasonographic findings as a first-line imaging tool to raise indirect suspicion of parametrial involvement in women suspected of having severe endometriosis (DE).
In the study it will be tested whether transcranial direct current stimulation can reduce the perception of pelvic pain in patients with endometriosis. Hypothesis: Transcranial direct current stimulation can reduce the perception of pelvic pain in patients with patients with endometriosis.
This is a randomized, single blinded, placebo-controlled trial to study the effectiveness of a subanesthetic dose (0.6 mg/kg) of ketamine versus placebo (saline) on postoperative pain and pain on adult female chronic pelvic pain patients undergoing robotic removal of endometriosis. The objective of the study is to explore the effect of a sub anesthetic dose of ketamine (0.6 mg/kg) vs. saline control on postoperative pain and recovery in chronic pelvic pain patients who have undergone robotic removal of endometriosis.
