- 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.
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.
Objective: To evaluate the effect of prolonged Gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist downregulation in patients with endometriomas of less than 5 cm on the outcome of the proceeding Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) trial.
Methods: In a randomized controlled trial at a university teaching hospital, 90 patients indicated for ICSI and having unilateral single endometrioma of less than 5 cm in diameter were randomized into 2 groups. Group A (45 patients) received the standard long protocol; whereas group B (45 patients) received 3 consecutive Intramuscular (IM) injections of triptorelin 3.

Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the role of AMH in prediction of poor ovarian response as well as the relation between ESR (+ 1730G>A) (rs4986938) and FSHR p.ThrAla (c.919A>G, rs6165) SNPs and the poor ovarian response in Egyptian women undergoing IVF procedure.

Methods: A case-control study conducted on 120 primigravida at term admitted in active labor were divided into three equal groups. A single dose of the drug (placebo or HBB 20 mg or HBB 40 mg) was injected intravenously slowly to groups A, B, and C.
Objective: To compare effectiveness and tolerability of carbetocin versus syntometrine in prevention of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) after cesarean section (CS).
Methods: A double-blind randomized study conducted on 300 pregnant subjected randomly either to single 100 μg IV dose of carbetocin (150 women) or combination of 5 IU oxytocin and 0.2 mg ergometrine (150 women) after fetal extraction and before placental removal.
Objective: The objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of carbetocin vs. oxytocin in the management of atonic post partum haemorrhage (PPH) after vaginal delivery.
Methods: A prospective randomised study was conducted in which 100 pregnant women were randomised into 2 equal groups: group 1 received Carbetocin 100 µgm (Pabal(®) Ferring, UK) and group 2 received oxytocin 5 IU (Syntocinon(®), Novartis, Switzerland).

Objective: To compare effectiveness and tolerability of carbetocin versus oxytocin in prevention of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) after vaginal delivery.
Methods: A prospective double-blinded randomized study conducted on 200 pregnant women randomized into two groups: Group 1 (100 women) received single 100 μg IM dose of carbetocin and Group 2 received of 5 IU oxytocin IM. Both groups received their drug after fetal and before placental delivery.
Objective: To study various biomarkers in prediction of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).
Patients And Methods: Prospective observational study included 400 pregnant women. Maternal serum sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), uric acid, creatinine and albumin were measured before 15 weeks of gestation.
