Impaired secretion of C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10 by stimulation with a Toll-like receptor 4 ligand in endometrial epithelium of infertile patients with minimal-to-mild endometriosis.

Successful embryo implantation requires transient, well-controlled inflammation in decidualizing cells. In mice, Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 signaling in endometrial epithelial cells (EECs) by stimulation with factors present in seminal fluids has been shown to be a key upstream driver of a controlled inflammatory response. Clinical evidence supports that exposure of the female reproductive tract to seminal plasma promotes implantation success.

[Correlation between automated optical reading and double human reading for two tests of fetal membranes rupture].

Objectives: To assess concordance between double human and automated optical reading (AOR) concerning two biological tests for rupture of membranes (ROM) METHODS: We conducted a monocentric, prospective, observational study comparing Actim Prom (Alere SAS, Jouy-en Josas, France) and Hiprom Duo (Fumouze, Levallois-Perret, France). Each test was performed simultaneously in patients with suspected ROM and read independently by 2 biologists and AOR device. ROM was clinically confirmed in case of recurrent leakage or spontaneous labour with no perceived membranes within 48hours.

Management of endometriosis: CNGOF/HAS clinical practice guidelines - Short version.

First-line diagnostic investigations for endometriosis are physical examination and pelvic ultrasound. The second-line investigations are: targeted pelvic examination performed by an expert clinician, transvaginal ultrasound performed by an expert physician sonographer (radiologist or gynaecologist), and pelvic MRI. Management of endometriosis is recommended when the disease has a functional impact.

[First line management without IVF of infertility related to endometriosis: Result of medical therapy? Results of ovarian superovulation? Results of intrauterine insemination? CNGOF-HAS Endometriosis Guidelines].

Introduction: Using the structured methodology of French guidelines (HAS-CNGOF), the aim of this chapter was to formulate good practice points (GPP), in relation to optimal non-ART management of endometriosis related to infertility, based on the best available evidence in the literature.

Materials And Methods: This guideline was produced by a group of experts in the field including a thorough systematic search of the literature (from January 1980 to March 2017). Were included only women with endometriosis related to infertility.

[Management of endometriosis: CNGOF-HAS practice guidelines (short version)].

First-line investigations to diagnose endometriosis are clinical examination and pelvic ultrasound. Second-line investigations include pelvic examination performed by a referent clinician, transvaginal ultrasound performed by a referent echographist, and pelvic MRI. It is recommended to treat endometriosis when it is symptomatic.
