Assessment of atrial electromechanical interval and P wave dispersion in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Objective: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with increased cardiovascular risk, including ischemic stroke. Prolonged atrial electromechanical interval (EMI) is related to increased atrial fibrillation (AF) risk. The aim of the study is to evaluate atrial EMI and electrocardiographic P-wave indices related to increased AF risk in patients with PCOS.

Comparison of efficacy of bromocriptine and cabergoline to GnRH agonist in a rat endometriosis model.

Objective: To determine the effect of dopamine agonists in a surgically induced endometriosis model on rats.

Study Design: In this prospective randomized experimental study, surgical induction of endometriosis was performed by autotransplantation technique on 52 adult female Wistar-Albino rats. Endometriosis formation was confirmed by a second-look laparotomy (n:48) 1 month later.
