Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of permanent placental injury due to a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection during pregnancy on feto-placental circulation.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 83 pregnant women with planned deliveries were divided into two groups according to their severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection statuses during pregnancy. Their demographic parameters, obstetric histories, and prenatal risks were evaluated.
Article Synopsis
- Buerger's disease (BD) is a serious condition that requires early diagnosis for effective treatment, but there’s no universally accepted method for diagnosing it due to varied criteria used by different vascular centers.
- A recent Delphi Consensus Study highlighted the lack of consensus on BD diagnostic criteria, particularly beyond the requirement of a history of smoking, making it hard to compare patient outcomes globally.
- The VAS-European Independent Foundation has proposed that a definitive BD diagnosis should include a history of smoking, typical angiographic and histopathological features, and suggests using a combination of major and minor criteria for suspected diagnoses, with validation studies currently in progress.
Article Synopsis
- * Key pathophysiological elements in both CVD and cardiovascular diseases include endothelial injury, inflammation, and hypercoagulability, with CVD symptoms leading to reduced physical activity, thereby heightening the risk of other cardiovascular conditions.
- * Management of CVD should adopt a multi-specialty approach focusing on endothelial inflammation, and international guidelines recommend conservative treatments like venoactive drugs (VADs) to alleviate CVD symptoms, with micronized purified flavonoid fraction (MPFF) being
Objective: To evaluate the expression of stanniocalcin-1 (STC-1) and to investigate the correlation of STC-1 with expression of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and clinical parameters, histopathological findings and prognostic factors in endometrioid endometrial cancer (EEC).
Materials And Methods: In this retrospective study, STC-1 (cytoplasmic), ER (nuclear), and PR (nuclear) stainings were applied to tissue microarray sections of 89 EEC, 27 endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN), and 21 normal endometrium (NE). Prognostic factors such as age, tumor size, depth of myometrial invasion, lymphovascular invasion, perineural invasion, and lymph node metastasis were compared with the expression of these markers.
Background: The current approach to endometrial cancer screening requires that all patients be able to recognize symptoms, report them, and carry out appropriate interventions. The current approach to endometrial cancer screening could become a problem in the future, especially for Black women and women from minority groups, and could lead to disparities in receiving proper care. Moreover, there is a lack of literature on artificial intelligence in the prediction and diagnosis of endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia and endometrial cancer.
