Prevalence of Septate Uterus in a Large Population of Women of Reproductive Age: Comparison of ASRM 2016 and 2021, ESHRE/ESGE, and CUME Diagnostic Criteria: A Prospective Study.

In this study, we aimed to assess and compare the prevalence of septate uterus using the diagnostic criteria of the ESHRE-ESGE, ASRM 2016, ASRM 2021, and CUME classifications. This prospective observational study included 977 women of reproductive age. Each participant underwent a transvaginal ultrasound, and a 3D volume of the uterus was obtained for further analysis.

Maternal and Fetal Outcomes after Multiple Cesarean Deliveries.

Cesarean delivery (CD) is a common procedure, but it can be associated with some increasing risks as the number of previous CD increases. Although women undergoing multiple CDs is very unusual in Spain, our center serves pregnant women with a history of three or more previous CDs with some frequency. We aimed to assess whether women who undergo multiple CDs (≥4) have more risks than those who undergo a third CD.

Severe pain during hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (HyCoSy): a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: To assess the frequency of severe pain perception during hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (HyCoSy) in infertile women and to assess whether there are differences in the frequency of associated pain according to the contrast used.

Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Patients: Women undergoing HyCoSy due to infertility.

A Clinician's Guide to Functional Hypothalamic Amenorrhea.

Patients and clinicians alike want to know if stress causes infertility. Stress could impair with reproductive function by a variety of mechanisms, including compromise of ovarian function, spermatogenesis, fertilization, endometrial development, implantation, and placentation. Herein we focus on the pathogenesis and treatment of stress-induced anovulation, which is often termed functional hypothalamic amenorrhea (FHA), with the objective of summarizing the actual knowledge as a clinical guide.

Prospective external validation of IOTA three-step strategy for characterizing and classifying adnexal masses and retrospective assessment of alternative two-step strategy using simple-rules risk.

Objectives: To perform an external validation of the diagnostic performance of the three-step strategy proposed by the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA) group for classifying adnexal masses as benign or malignant, when ultrasound is performed by non-expert sonographers in the first two steps. The second objective was to assess the diagnostic performance of an alternative strategy using simple-rules risk (SRR), instead of simple rules (SR), in the second step.

Methods: This was a prospective observational study conducted at two university hospitals, from September 2015 to August 2017, of consecutive patients diagnosed with an adnexal mass.
