Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Carbetocin compared to oxytocin in prevention of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) after low-risk cesarean delivery (CD).
Search Strategy: Screening of Medline, Web Of Science, Scopus, Google scholar, and clinical trials registry till January 2024 using the key words related to carbetocin, blood loss, PPH, Cesarean section and their MeSH terms was done.
Selection Criteria: This study included all RCTs conducted on women with low risk for developing PPH after CD and compared the administration of carbetocin to oxytocin without any language limitation.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of misoprostol before hysteroscopy in women who have never given birth (nulliparous).
- A total of 13 studies involving 1,528 participants were analyzed, comparing misoprostol to various alternatives including placebo and other medications.
- Results indicated mixed outcomes on cervical dilation and pain levels, with a significant reduction in time for cervical dilatation (p=0.03), but no strong evidence for improved ease of dilation or reduced preoperative pain.

Search Strategy: Screening of databases from inception to January 2023 using the keywords related to "Platelet-rich plasma" AND "poor ovarian reserve" OR "ovarian failure".
Selection Criteria: Fourteen studies (1632 participants) were included, 10 included women with POR, 1 included women with POI and 3 included both POR and POI women.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of endometrial scratch injury (ESI) in infertile women undergoing fertilization (IVF).
Methods: We screened MEDLINE, CENTRAL, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Central Register from inception to April 2023 using keywords related to endometrial scratch, implantation, infertility, and IVF. We included 41 randomized, controlled trials of ESI in IVF cycles (9084 women).
Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound and in the diagnosis of Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS).
Data Sources: Screening of MEDLINE, CENTRAL, other bases from inception to February 2022 using the keywords related to placenta accreta, increta, percreta, morbidly adherent placenta, and preoperative ultrasound diagnosis.
Study Eligibility Criteria: All available studies- whether were prospective or retrospective- including cohort, case control and cross sectional that involved prenatal diagnosis of PAS using 2D or 3D ultrasound with subsequent pathological confirmation postnatal were included.
Objective: To assess the value of intrauterine PRP to improve IVF outcome in women with previous implantation failure.
Methods: Screening of Pubmed, Web of Science, and other databases from inception to August 2022 using the keywords related to "platelet-rich plasma" OR "PRP" AND "IVF" "implantation failure." Twenty-nine studies (3308 participants) were included in our analysis, 13 were RCTs, 6 were prospective cohorts, 4 were prospective single arm, and 6 were retrospective analyses.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the value of laser acupuncture (LA) on forearm bone mineral density (BMD) and wrist pain in osteoporotic postmenopausal women.
Methods: Sixty-eight postmenopausal women diagnosed with osteoporosis were randomly allocated equally to one of two sets. The drug-only group received calcium and vitamin D 3 supplement containing fluoride daily for 12 weeks, whereas the drug/LA group received LA therapy for 20 minutes per session, three sessions weekly, in addition to the same supplementation.
Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to compare the impacts of whole-body vibration (WBV) and aerobic exercise on hormone levels and inflammation in women with premenstrual syndrome (PMS).
- - Conducted with 105 women, the trial involved three groups receiving either WBV, aerobic exercise, or no intervention, while all participants took magnesium and vitamin B supplements.
- - Results showed both WBV and aerobic exercises helped manage PMS symptoms and hormonal levels, but WBV was more effective in improving cortisol, progesterone, prolactin, and estradiol levels.
Background: The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficiency and safety of a novel technique to treat large benign ovarian cysts combining benefits of laparoscopic management along with mini-laparotomy without affection of the ovarian reserve.
Methods: The study included 112 women with large benign ovarian cyst candidate for ovarian cystectomy. The technique started with laparoscopy followed by guided cyst aspiration followed by exteriorization of the ovary through minilaprotomy and completion of cystectomy through microsurgical technique.
Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of misoprostol to minimized blood loss during and after cesarean delivery (CD).
Search Strategy: Screening of MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials from inception to February 2021 using the keywords related to misoprostol, CD, postpartum hemorrhage, and intraoperative blood loss and their MeSH terms.
Selection Criteria: Only RCTs were included.
Background: Objective to assess the value of preoperative tranexamic acid (TXA) in reduction of intraoperative and postoperative blood loss in high-risk cesarean delivery (CD).
Methods: A double blind randomized controlled trial included 160 high risk women who underwent elective lower segment CD. They were equally randomized to receive either 1 g of TXA or placebo 15 min before surgery.

Materials And Methods: A double-blinded randomized controlled trial included 100 primiparas diagnosed with prolonged labor. They were randomly divided two equal groups.
This randomised controlled trial aimed to compare the effect of early and delayed pushing during the second stage of labour in women with occipitoposterior (OP) malposition. It included 184 nulliparous women with OP position randomised to early pushing in which women were allowed to push within one hour after full cervical dilatation or delayed pushing in which women were asked not to push for maximum of three hours or start pushing when the vertex was visible. The primary outcome was successful vaginal delivery.

Methods: Ninety-eight pregnant women, all candidates for elective cesarean delivery, were equally randomized into two groups: the rectal group (received preoperative misoprostol rectally) and the intrauterine group (received intrauterine misoprostol after the delivery of the placenta). The primary outcome was the estimated blood loss (EBL) during cesarean delivery.
