Ligilactobacillus salivarius PS11610 exerts an effect on the microbial and immunological profile of couples suffering unknown infertility.

Problem: Unknown or idiopathic infertility has been associated with urogenital tract dysbiosis, reducing pregnancy and delivery ratios during assisted reproductive treatments (ART). The Ligilactobacillus salivarius PS11610 strain has shown extraordinary antimicrobial activity in vitro against urogenital pathogens as well as other probiotic characteristics. Therefore, an intervention study was performed to evaluate the effect of L.

Use of steroid pre-treatments in IVF-ICSI cycles with GnRH antagonist protocol and their impact on gestational outcomes.

Different steroid pre-treatments have been used to schedule the start of the ovarian stimulation in IVF cycles. Currently, there is controversy about their effects on gestational outcomes. We designed a three-armed randomised controlled trial (RCT).

Peloids as Thermotherapeutic Agents.

The use of peloids as heat-providing therapeutic systems dates back to antiquity. Such systems consist of a liquid phase and an organic or inorganic solid phase. The latter facilitates the handling, preparation and stability of the solid-liquid system, modifying its organoleptic and phy-sicochemical properties, and improves its efficacy and tolerance.

Economic Impact of Obstetric Events on Women of Reproductive Age Living With Psoriatic Arthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Axial Spondyloarthritis and Psoriasis in Spain.

Objective: To estimate the annual cost associated with obstetric events in women of reproductive age with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, from the perspective of the National Healthcare System.

Methods: A cost-analysis was developed to estimate the impact associated with obstetric events in women of reproductive age with psoriasis (PSO), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). The analysis considered complications during fertility and conception, in pregnancy and in the postpartum.

Effects of progesterone variation on IVF Progesterone variation during controlled ovarian stimulation: effects on in vitro results.

The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of the progesterone variation (PV) between early progesterone and preovulatory progesterone on pregnancy rate (PR), number of oocytes, and embryo quality. Three hundred and thirty-eight cycles of in vitro fertilisation were included and progesterone was measured on 5th day of stimulation GnRH as well as on the day of induction of ovulation. Fresh embryo transfer (ET) on the second-third day after follicular puncture was made in 152/338 cycles, with positive pregnancies in 61/152 (40%).

Efficacy of aquatic therapy for neck pain: a systematic review.

This study systematically reviews the current state of aquatic treatment of neck pain and assesses the scientific evidence of its benefits. The databases PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and PEDro were searched for relevant reports published from January 1, 2008, to November 7, 2017, using the keywords "neck pain" in addition to "balneotherapy", "spa treatment", "spa", "thalassotherapy", "hydrotherapy", "aquatic therapy" or "aquatic". Inclusion criteria were full-text articles published in journals included in Journal Citation Reports in English and Spanish describing human studies.

Efficacy of aquatic therapy for multiple sclerosis: a systematic review.

Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory, progressive, disabling autoimmune disease affecting the central nervous system. Symptoms and signs of MS vary widely and patients may lose their ability to walk. To date the benefits of aquatic therapy often used for rehabilitation in MS patients have not been reviewed.
