Article Synopsis
- * Out of 704 women, 517 were analyzed, showing that those with osteoporosis had higher TyG index levels and triglycerides compared to those without.
- * The findings suggest that the TyG index is a significant predictor of osteoporosis, indicating the importance of incorporating metabolic health measures into osteoporosis management plans and highlighting the need for further research.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the link between systemic inflammation, measured by the systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII), and menopausal symptoms in postmenopausal women.
- Conducted with 702 women, results show that those with higher SII levels report more severe menopausal symptoms, particularly somatic issues like muscle and joint pain, hot flashes, and sleep disturbances.
- The findings indicate that inflammation may worsen menopausal symptoms, pointing to potential benefits in exploring anti-inflammatory strategies for improving quality of life for postmenopausal women.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between uterine leiomyoma and fragmented QRS, a non-invasive indicator of cardiovascular risk and myocardial ischemia, in women with uterine leiomyoma.
Methods: In this prospective case-control study, a total of 47 patients diagnosed with uterine leiomyoma (case group) and 47 healthy individuals without uterine leiomyoma (control group) who had undergone bilateral tubal ligation surgery were included. Various demographic, clinical, and laboratory parameters and the presence of fragmented QRS were recorded.

This study aimed to analyse the management protocols, surgical approaches, and outcomes of the women with Borderline ovarian tumours (BOT) at Ankara Etlik Zubeyde Hanım Women's Health Training and Research Hospital, Ankara, Turkey. One hundred and seventy-seven patients diagnosed with serous and mucinous BOT were enrolled in the study. Demographic, clinical, and pathological data were reviewed retrospectively from the medical records.

A total of 95 single pregnancies between 32-41 wk (45 with late FGR and 50 controls) were included. Doppler parameters, birth weight and the need for neonatal intensive care unit admission (NICU) were assessed.

Methods: 296 patients with TOA in a tertiary center were enrolled in the study. Patients were divided into two groups: Group1 (n = 165) included patients in whom medical treatment was successful, and Group2 (n = 131) included patients in whom surgery was required.
Objective: This study investigated the association between CONUT score and postmenopausal osteoporosis.
Methods: Postmenopausal women who were seen at an outpatient clinic in a tertiary hospital for routine gynecologic examination between January 2017 and June 2022 were included in the study. Based on their T-scores, a total of 423 women were divided into two groups.
Aim: The purpose of this study was to determine the predictive value of preoperative hemoglobin A1c (HgA1c) level for endometrial cancer in diabetic women with endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN).
Materials And Methods: Six hundred patients with EIN were retrospectively studied in a tertiary referral center in Turkey between January 2014 and December 2021. One hundred and thirteen diabetic patients with EIN who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled in the study and divided into three groups according to the final pathological results: Group 1 with benign findings ( = 29), Group 2 with EIN ( = 34) and Group 3 with endometrial cancer ( = 50).
Article Synopsis
- This study evaluated the Quality of Life (QoL) and sexual function in women undergoing total abdominal vs. total laparoscopic hysterectomy, using validated questionnaires before and six months after surgery.
- A total of 121 patients participated, with 65 undergoing abdominal hysterectomy and 56 laparoscopic; 104 completed the follow-up surveys.
- Results indicated that women in the laparoscopic group reported greater improvements in QoL and better sexual function scores post-surgery compared to the abdominal group, although some sexual dysfunction metrics showed no significant differences between groups.*
