Enhancing predictions of embryo implantation in thin endometrium: a comparative analysis of endometrial thickness in frozen versus fresh IVF cycles.

This study investigated whether the difference between endometrial thickness in the frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycle and the preceding fresh stimulated cycle predicts clinical pregnancy in women with thin endometrium. A retrospective analysis of 335 cycles in 227 women (age < 43) with endometrium < 8 mm in the FET cycle was conducted. Endometrial thickness was assessed using the ratio (ET) and absolute difference (ET) between the maximal endometrial thickness measured during the stimulated IVF cycle and that measured in the FET cycle.

Predicting the need for blood transfusion requirement in postpartum hemorrhage.

Objective: We aimed to assess the role of lactate and hemoglobin levels as predictors for the need for blood transfusion in post-partum hemorrhage (PPH).

Methods: A retrospective cohort study of women with PPH in a single university-affiliated tertiary medical center between August 2018 and June 2020. PPH was defined as an estimated excessive blood loss (of more than 500 ml following vaginal delivery and 1000 ml following a cesarean delivery) requiring at least one uterotonic drug and fluid resuscitation.

A decade's experience in primipara, term, singleton, vertex parturients with a sustained low rate of CD.

Background Cesarean delivery (CD) in primiparas with a term singleton vertex fetus (PTSV) is a sentinel event for the future mode of delivery and determinant of repeat CD risk. We aimed to evaluate the risk factors for primary CD in a population with a decade of sustained low rate of intrapartum CD. Methods This was a retrospective single-center cohort study between 2005 and 2014.
