Abdominal access in laparoscopic surgery of obese patients: a novel abdominal access technique.

Background: An important step in laparoscopic surgery is abdominal access. Several abdominal access techniques have been described to reduce complications. We compare our novel abdominal access technique (MESAD) with other abdominal access techniques, particularly to reduce complications in obese patients.

Recurrent pregnancy loss and metabolic syndrome.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components in patients with unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL).

Material And Methods: A cross-sectional study was held including 115 patients with unexplained RPL who were referred to a tertiary center between December 2018 and December 2019. In the study, MetS was classified according to The National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III) criteria on the basis of metabolic risk factors.

The Effects of Rocuronium-sugammadex on Fetomaternal Outcomes in Pregnancy Undergoing Electroconvulsive Therapy: A Retrospective Case Series and Literature Review.

Effect of spinal anesthesia on the QT interval in term and post-term pregnancies scheduled for elective cesarean section: a prospective study.

In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of spinal anesthesia on the QT interval in patients with term and post-term pregnancy that were scheduled for elective cesarean section. Forty pregnant women scheduled for elective cesarean section under spinal anesthesia were assigned into two groups: Post-term group (Group P) ( = 20) and Term group (Group T) ( = 20). After entering the operation room, standard monitoring [electrocardiography (ECG), noninvasive blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and peripheral oxygen saturation] was performed.

Cytogenetic screening in couples with Habitual Abortions.
