Article Synopsis
- - Adhesion formation after gynecological surgery is a persistent issue, particularly with procedures like myomectomy which is known to cause significant adhesions that can affect fertility.
- - Minimally invasive surgical methods, along with adhesion-reducing substances, can lower the risk of adhesions but can't completely prevent them, necessitating careful consideration of the risks versus benefits during infertility surgeries.
- - This review aims to assess the incidence and causes of adhesion formation and to explore the most effective preventive strategies to manage this complication.
Background: In the past, some pregnant women have been recommended to be in activity restriction because of the presumed increased risk of preterm birth due to the increased release of catecholamines, which might stimulate myometrial activity, during exercise and aerobic activity.
Objective: This study aimed to test the hypothesis that in women with singleton pregnancy and arrested preterm labor, activity restriction would reduce the rate of preterm birth at <37 weeks of gestation.
Study Design: This was a parallel-group nonblinded randomized trial conducted at a single center in Italy.
Background: Vulvar Paget's disease (VPD) is defined as a neoplasm of epithelial origin, mostly in postmenopausal women. Due to the extreme rarity of VPD, limited data about recommended treatment options are available. Surgical excision has been the treatment of choice although in the recent decade medical treatments have been proposed.

In this study, we have compared immunoblotting (IB) with Crithidia luciliae indirect immunofluorescence test (CLIFT) and chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA) in 91 patients referred to our hospital for anti-dsDNA antibodies detection. The concordance and correlation measured by Cohen's kappa and Spearman's coefficient respectively was significant between CLIFT and CLIA (0.
