Evaluating daily profile of central aortic pressure and reflected pulse wave parameters in climacteric women.

Introduction: Structural and functional changes of the vascular wall in women occur already at the very early stages of reproductive aging. An emergence of applanation tonometry made it possible to evaluate arterial stiffness and central hemodynamic parameters non-invasively, which considerably expanded the information that had been provided previously by invasive methods used for studying these parameters during cardiac catheterization. Whereas a few studies have assessed central aortic pressure (CAP) parameters and reflected pulse wave in women at different phases of their reproductive aging, none investigated the daily profile of CAP and reflected pulse wave parameters in women undergoing different stages of the menopause.

Alternative strategies for the management of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, the role of intra-abdominal hypertension control.

The aim of this study is to analyze the methods for reducing intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) in the management of the moderate and severe forms of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). We carried out a systematic review of the literature. An evaluation of clinical trials, meta-analysis, case-reports, and reviews assessing the management of conditions associated with OHSS and intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH)/abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) was made using the following data sources: MEDLINE Pubmed (from 1966 to July 2019) and the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register, Embase (up to July 2019).

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. A new look at an old problem.

To analyze the management of severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome based on aspects of its etiology and pathogenesis a systematic review of the literature was done. An evaluation of clinical trials, meta-analysis, case-reports and reviews assessing the management of different conditions related to ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome was made using the following data sources: MEDLINE Pubmed (from 1966 to July 2018) and the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register, Embase (up to July 2018). The role of intra-abdominal hypertension in the development of the severe forms of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and its complicated outcomes was assessed.
