Image-guided drainage management of tubo-ovarian abscess and the role of C-reactive protein measurements in monitoring treatment response: a single-center experience.

Purpose: We aimed to compare the results of image-guided drainage in addition to antibiotic therapy (antibiotherapy) with antibiotherapy alone in the treatment of tubo-ovarian abscesses (TOAs) and evaluate C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in predicting the success of antibiotherapy.

Methods: This was a retrospective study of 194 patients hospitalized with TOA. Patients were divided into the following two groups: those who underwent image-guided drainage in addition to parenteral antibiotherapy and those who did not undergo image-guided drainage and received antibiotherapy alone.

Effects of interferential current stimulation in women with pelvic organ prolapse: a prospective randomized sham-controlled study.

Introduction And Hypothesis: The objective was to investigate the effects of interferential (IF) current stimulation on pelvic floor symptoms, prolapse stages, pelvic floor muscle (PFM) strength/endurance, quality of life (QoL), sexual function, perception of subjective improvement (PSI), and satisfaction in women with pelvic organ prolapse (POP).

Methods: The patients were randomly divided into the IF (n=13) and sham groups (n=12). Lifestyle advice was given in both groups.
