Filter by:Objectives: To study the effect of Letrozole dose increments on ovulation rate and endometrial thickness as a primary outcomes in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome who previously resistant to letrazole conventional dose, and chemical and clinical pregnancy considered as secondary outcomes.
The aim of the present randomized controlled study was to examine wether a clinical decision support stystem would increase the adherence to the Mediterranean diet (MD) of adolescent girls, aged 15-17 years, diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome. The intervention lasted for 3 months and in total, 40 girls were randomly assigned to either the MD group (n=20) or a Control group receiving general nutritional advice (n=20). Anthropometry, nutritional intake, psychological well-being, and blood markers were analyzed at the begninning and the end of the trial.
Letrozole is a chemical compound, CGS 20267 which is a third-generation, nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor. Letrozole blocks estrogen synthesis by directly affecting the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, subsequently, increases gonadotropins which increase pregnancy rates. Possible positive outcomes of aromatase inhibitors over selective estrogen-receptor modulators include a more physiologic hormonal stimulation of the endometrium which increases receptivity, a lower multiple-pregnancy through single follicle growth, a lesser side-effect especially vasomotor and mood symptoms, and more prompt clearance from blood, hence, reducing the probabilities of periconceptional exposure
We aimed to investigate visceral adiposity index (VAI) in patients with different phenotype of policystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and to compare healthy controls.
We aimed to investigate serum uric acid levels in patients with different phenotype of policystic ovary syndrome and to compare healthy controls.
85 percent of women of reproductive age experience consistent period cramps/menstrual pain, and 60% indicate that they do not use painkillers to relieve menstrual symptoms; there is a need for natural and non-medicative supplements to dysmenorrhea. The purpose of this clinical trial is to examine the effect of 'Cramp Bites'--classified by a mixture of natural ingredients researched to help with period pain--on women suffering from primary dysmenorrhea: this will be done through providing participants with the snack and surveying them on how it changes their period symptoms.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) characterized by a chronic disorder in ovulation along with hyperandrogenism has become one of the most common endocrine disorders in women of reproductive age with an estimated 5%-15% prevalence. It has the symptoms such as menstrual disorders, infertility, hyperandrogenism, obesity, hirsutism and acne. PCOS is linked to Psychological morbidities e.g. increased risk of stress, depression, low self-esteem, poor body image, and reduced health-related quality of life. Approximately 75% of people with PCOS have a fat accumulation in the central area of the body.
Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a heterogeneous endocrinopathy among reproductive-aged women that has become a major international public health concern. Objective: Investigate the effect of web-based health education module on nursing students' knowledge, adaptive healthy measures and attitude regarding polycystic ovary syndrome. Research design: A two-armed, single-blind, parallel groups prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT), with a baseline pre-test and immediate post-test was used to carry out this study. Setting: The study was conducted at the Faculty of Nursing, Mansoura University, Egypt in December 2022 to May 2023. Subjects and sampling: Simple random sampling technique was employed to recruit the study subjects. Data collection: A questionnaire was developed to acquire data including six parts.
Emerging research indicates a link between polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and periodontal diseases, revealing the intricate relationship between oral health and systemic conditions. PCOS, a hormonal disorder in women of reproductive age, often associates with obesity, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance, heightening the risk for type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The pathogenesis of PCOS involves an inflammatory response marked by increased CRP, inflammatory cytokines, elevated blood leukocytes, adhesion molecule expression, and oxidative stress markers like myeloperoxidase (MPO). Periodontal diseases, bacterial infections affecting gums, ligaments, cement, and bone, include gingivitis (gum inflammation) and periodontitis (irreversible tissue destruction). Evidence suggests a link between periodontitis and increased CVD risk, while such association with gingivitis is limited. Potential mechanisms linking periodontal diseases and CVD involve cytokine release, oral bacteria toxin production, and direct bloodstream transfer. Recognition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and TNFα triggers innate immune cells via TLR4 and TNFR, activating NF-κB and JNK expression. JNK amplifies inflammatory responses, inducing proinflammatory genes, and TNFα, IL-1, IL-6, and IL-8 can invade endothelial layers, promoting adhesion molecule expression. Enhanced leukocyte ROS production, especially in periodontitis, contributes to endothelial dysfunction and heightened cardiovascular risk. The activation of multiple inflammatory pathways likely links PCOS, periodontal disease, and increased cardiovascular risk. Thus, the researchers aim to investigate if the presence of periodontal diseases, particularly gingivitis, exacerbates oxidative stress, inflammation and atherosclerosis surrogate markers in women with PCOS, and explore the underlying molecular mechanisms.
PCOS is a common and complex disease affecting women of reproductive age. It is characterized by its complex pathological symptoms and mechanisms resulting in endocrine and metabolic dysfunction. PCOS is highly associated with various metabolic and endocrinal disorders. Metformin is mainly used for its glucose-lowering effects for treatment and prevention of type-2 diabetes mellitus (DM), gestational DM, and PCOS. Myo-inositol (MI) protects against MAFLD through reduction of hepatic accumulation of triglycerides.
