Purpose: To compare laparoscopic gynecological surgery training between a developed country's reference center (host center) and a public reference service in a developing country (home center), and use the technicity index (TI) to compare outcomes and to determine the impact of laparoscopic gynecological surgery fellowship training on the home center's TI.
Methods: The impact of training on the home center was assessed by comparing surgical performance before and after training. TI was assessed in 2017 in the host center, and before and after training in the home center.
Objective: The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of vitamin D supplementation alone on the adipokine profile of postmenopausal women.
Methods: In this randomized clinical trial, 160 women were randomized to 2 groups: oral supplementation with 1,000 IU cholecalciferol/d (vitamin D, n = 80) or placebo (PL, n = 80). Women with amenorrhea 12 months or more and aged 50 to 65 years were included.
Objective: To evaluate the three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound characteristics of the pelvic floor muscles (PFM) in two groups of postmenopausal women: users and nonusers of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT).
Study Design: Observational, cross-sectional cohort study.
Main Outcome Measures: In this study 226 sexually active heterosexual women, aged 45-60 years with amenorrhea >12 months and without clinical pelvic floor disorders or urinary incontinence were included.
Purpose: To evaluate agreement between pre- and post-laparoscopy gynecological diagnosis in order to demonstrate the rationality of this minimally invasive technique use in gynecological propaedeutics.
Methods: Retrospective chart review study conducted between March 2010 and October 2016 based on a convenience sample. 315 patients undergoing surgical laparoscopy at the Center of Gynecologic Endoscopy and Family Planning of Botucatu Medical School/UNESP.
