Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the presence of nine prothrombotic gene variants in women with a history of pregnancy loss and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), including those who underwent assisted reproductive technology (ART).
- The research involved comparing different groups: women with one or two pregnancy losses, those with RPL, women with ongoing pregnancies post-ART, and those with recurrent implantation failures (RIF) to a control group from the general population.
- Results indicated that certain genetic variants, particularly factor V Leiden and others, were linked to a higher risk of RPL and RIF, suggesting these variants contribute to issues with embryo implantation and development.
Background And Objectives: Fractional CO laser has been proposed as an effective treatment for the genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM). However, the effects of laser treatment on vulvar tissue have never been assessed. We aimed to assess histological changes related to fractional CO laser in vulvar tissue from GSM patients.

Effect of rescue fractional microablative CO2 laser on symptoms and sexual dysfunction in women affected by vulvar lichen sclerosus resistant to long-term use of topic corticosteroid: a prospective longitudinal study.

April 2020
Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of rescue fractional microablative CO2 laser treatment in women with severe symptoms and sexual dysfunction related to lichen sclerosus not responsive to long-term ultra-potent topical corticosteroid treatment.
Methods: Consecutive eligible women with lichen sclerosus referred to our unit who received fractional microablative CO2 laser treatment after failure of ultra-potent topical corticosteroid treatment were enrolled in the study. The diagnosis was confirmed by histological assessment in all cases.
Immunophenotype of Atypical Polypoid Adenomyoma of the Uterus: Diagnostic Value and Insight on Pathogenesis.
Appl Immunohistochem Mol Morphol
September 2020
Atypical polypoid adenomyoma (APA) is a rare uterine lesion constituted by atypical endometrioid glands, squamous morules, and myofibromatous stroma. We aimed to assess the immunophenotype of the 3 components of APA, with regard to its pathogenesis and its differential diagnosis. A systematic review was performed by searching electronic databases from their inception to January 2019 for immunohistochemical studies of APA.
