- Uterine fibroids are common benign tumors in the uterus, but their removal (myomectomy) may not improve IVF success in women with non-cavity-distorting intramural fibroids.
- A study at Acibadem Maslak Hospital analyzed 128 women who underwent IVF, comparing those who had myomectomy to those who did not, all of whom experienced at least two IVF failures.
- Results showed no significant difference in IVF and pregnancy outcomes between the two groups, indicating that myomectomy does not substantially influence pregnancy or live birth rates.
The exact definition of small-for-gestational-age (SGA) infant is still controversial among clinicians. In this study, we aimed to understand which definition is better in terms of establishing both early postnatal problems and growth. In this way, we compared early neonatal problems and infancy growth of term infants with birth weight (BW) < -2 SDS and with BW between 10th percentile (-1.

Metabolomics based on amino acid and carnitine/acylcarnitine profile may have a role in fetal and early postnatal energy metabolism. In this study, the relationship between intrauterine growth status and early metabolomics profile was evaluated.
