Filter by:Patients with recurrent pregnancy loss are known to have decreased uterine artery blood flow. Nitric oxide plays a major role in increasing uterine blood flow during the luteal phase. This study is done to evaluate the effects of sildenafil on blood flow indices in the patients with recurrent pregnancy loss due to impaired uterine artery blood flow.
This is a pilot study with the aim to investigate the beneficial effect of bicarbonate buffered medium containing hyaluronan and recombinant human albumin (EmbryoGlue®, Vitrolife) in patients with documented repeated implantation failure on live birth per randomized subject as primary endpoint.
Randomizedtrial comparing success and complication rates of operative hysteroscopy versus traditional dilation and curettage (D&C) in the management of first trimester missed abortion.
Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) affects around 5 % of women in reproductive age. The underlying cause of RPL is most often unknown, probably multifactorial, and no treatment with documented effect on chance of live birth exists. In unexplained cases of RPL, primarily the immune system is hypothesized to play a pivotal, causative role, since autoantibodies and specific human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles as well as unbalanced distribution of leucocyte subsets, especially natural killer (NK) cells and T-helper (Th) cells, occurs more frequently in patients with unexplained RPL. For that reason, many treatment regimens used in autoimmune diseases have been tested on RPL patients, as for example prednisolone and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg). IVIg (Privigen) consist of a broad spectrum of structurally and functionally intact IgG antibodies. The mechanism of action is not fully elucidated, but certainly IVIg do help opsonise and neutralize foreign cells and pathogens. Prednisolone support this anti-inflammatory action by suppressing migration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes, and reducing the volume and activity of the immune system and the capillary permeability. A retrospective, observational pilot study suggested that a combination of prednisone and IVIg in first trimester improves the chance of a live birth in women with RPL after assisted reproductive technologies (ART) (Nyborg et al., 2014). A randomized controlled study is necessary for determining if this immunomodulatory treatment definitely is effective in patients with unexplained RPL after ART (defined as IVF or ICSI ad FER). Potentially, this study will be able to establish evidence for an effective treatment to women with unexplained RPL after ART, who otherwise have a poor prognosis.
COVID-19, the coronavirus responsible for the pandemic that began at the end of 2019 in China, spreads through respiratory droplets and direct contact. The most common symptoms of the disease include fever, cough, asthenia or myalgia, wheezing and headache, and the most serious complication is acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The new coronavirus has continued to spread to multiple countries and continents so much so that the epidemic was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Interest (PHEIC) by the World Health Organization (WHO) on January 30, 2020. In the first phase of emergency worldwide, characterized by high morbidity and mortality, scientific interest has been mainly directed to the study of the transmission mechanisms of the infection, diagnostic tools and therapies for ARDS, especially in elderly and co-morbid patients. Interest has rapidly spread to other categories of patients and in particular to pregnancy, on which the virus could impact in different ways, with consequences for both the mother and the fetus. A recent systematic review that included all published reports on Coronaviruses (COVID-19, SARS, and MERS) in pregnancy showed that preterm delivery is the most frequently reported adverse event in these women, and that COVID-19 is associated with an increased risk of preeclampsia and caesarean section. Nonetheless, the limited sample size, the main inclusion of cases reported for acute respiratory symptoms, the lack of information on previous pathologies potentially capable of complicating pregnancy, do not allow for the extrapolation of strong evidence on the course of infection in pregnancy. Therefore, the current status of the scientific literature does not allow for general and wide-ranging implications. THe investigators therefore believe it is particularly useful to investigate maternal and fetal outcomes in this new broader scenario, including all pregnancies associated with asymptomatic or symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection, found in any gestational period, in order to evaluate in a "real world scenario" "Actual rates of maternal-fetal and neonatal adverse events
Purpose: To study the impact of endometriosis on subsequent pregnancy and delivery. Methods: retrospective analysis by questionnaire / interview of cases (endometriosis laparoscopically removed / child wish) vs. controls (endometriosis laparoscopically excluded / child wish) from the University Hospital Muenster, Germany, treated between 2009 and 2016; analysis of pregnancy rate, mode of delivery and complications using Clavien-Dindo-classification, role of deep infiltrating endometriosis using ENZIAN classification; data analysis using t-test with p < 0.050% being considered significant.
uRM patients selected PGT-A from 2012 to 2016 were included in this study. Their clinical outcomes were prospectively observed and analyzed to explore the factor influenced the outcomes.
This was a retrospective study sharing the experience of women high risk for spontaneous preterm birth managed by Arabin pessary.
Retained products of conception (RPOC) and intrauterine adhesions (IUA) may occur following suction curettage for early miscarriage and cause secondary infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss and pregnancy complications. The aim of this study is to investigate whether adding hysteroscopy to suction curettage reduces the rates of RPOC and IUA.
The efficacy of low-dose aspirin combined with low-molecular-weight heparin treatment for improving antiphospholipid syndrome and maternal-fetal outcome of patients is recognized by various countries and recommended by the guidelines. However, there are still 20-30% of APS patients whose treatment fails. Therefore, the standard treatment effect is still not ideal, and other treatment options need to be explored. The purpose of this study is to conduct a randomized double-blind, parallel controlled study of patients with recurrent miscarriage and APS in addition to standard treatment, plus hydroxychloroquine sulfate (HCQ) or placebo, to observe the effects of HCQ on pregnancy outcome in patients with abortion and APS, to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of HCQ treatment.
