Introduction: Fetal microchimerism could be involved in the regulation of breast cancer oncogenesis. CD34+ cells could be of a particular interest as up to 12% of the CD34+ population in maternal blood are of fetal origin. The aim of this research was to analyze the impact of umbilical cord blood (UCB) CD34+ on MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines, in order to uncover novel biological mechanisms and suggest novel treatment options for breast cancer.

Background: Women with hereditary fibrinogen disorders (HFDs) seem to be at an increased risk of adverse obstetrical outcomes, but epidemiologic data are limited.

Objectives: We aimed to determine the prevalence of pregnancy complications; the modalities and management of delivery; and the postpartum events in women with hypofibrinogenemia, dysfibrinogenemia, and hypodysfibrinogenemia.

Introduction: Overall fertility and pregnancy outcomes in patients with nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (NCCAH) have been poorly studied. It has been suggested that hydrocortisone (HC) may decrease the time to conceive (TTC) and the rate of miscarriage in these patients.

Objectives: To describe fertility and pregnancy outcomes in a large cohort of NCCAH women.

21-Hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) is the most common cause of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Increased production of adrenal-derived androgens and progesterone in 21OHD women interfere with their reproductive function and their fertility in many different ways, depending on the severity of the disease. Sexuality and fertility in women with classic 21OHD is impaired, due to several issues such as disrupted gonadotropic axis due to androgen and progesterone overproduction, and mechanical, psychological factors related to genital surgery.
