Analysis of the Predictive Factors for Chronic Endometritis Recurrence in Infertile Women.

Problem: To identify the predictive factors for the recurrence of chronic endometritis (CE) in infertile women.

Method Of Study: In this case-control study, 1170 infertile women recovered from CE and underwent fertility treatment between December 2018 and August 2021. Among the 146 women (12.

Therapeutic efficacy of gentle endometrial curettage on antibiotic-resistant chronic endometritis in infertile women.

Purpose: To identify the efficacy of endometrial curettage on antibiotic-resistant chronic endometritis (CE) in infertile women.

Methods: Of 1580 women with CE, 87 with antibiotic-resistant CE after two to five cycles of antibiotic treatment were recruited between 2019 and 2021. The women who underwent endometrial curettage without applying any force and, in the subsequent menstrual cycle, endometrial sampling for CD138 immunostaining without antibiotic use.

Nail insertion points in semi-extended nailing of tibial fractures and their influence on alignment: A retrospective cohort study comparing two nail insertion techniques.

Introduction: Semi-extended tibial nailing techniques include the extra-articular technique (EAT) and the patellar eversion technique (PET). These approaches differ regarding the exposure of the patellar retinaculum and the size of the surgical field. This study compared the postoperative alignment and intramedullary nailing entry points between the EAT and PET for tibial fractures.

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy in a bedridden patient with dementia and communication difficulties due to Alzheimer's disease.

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a transient wall motion abnormality of the left ventricular apex, accompanied by emotional or physical stress. Although Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is generally considered a benign disease, severe clinical complications may occur, and early detection of the disease is important. In this report, we present the case of an 86-year-old bedridden woman with a history of bronchial asthma who was transferred to our hospital because of wheezing.

Relationship between Cytotoxicity in the Hippocampus and an Abnormal High Intensity Area on the Diffusion-weighted Images of Three Patients with Transient Global Amnesia.

Objective An abnormal high intensity area (HIA) on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) indicates the presence of cytotoxic edema and has been reported to be observed in the hippocampus of patients with transient global amnesia (TGA). The appearance of an HIA on DWI is usually delayed after the onset of patients with amnesia in TGA; thus, the significance of the HIA was evaluated in patients with TGA. Methods Three adult TGA patients who had a unilateral HIA on DWI (right, n=2; left, n=1) were enrolled.
