Article Synopsis
- The study examines factors contributing to empty follicle syndrome (EFS) in patients with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection.
- Researchers analyzed data from patients divided into two groups based on the presence of empty follicles at oocyte retrieval, focusing on variables like age, BMI, hormone levels, and treatment specifics.
- Findings identified increased BMI, low AMH, high baseline FSH, low baseline AFC, high gonadotropin dosage, and extended ovulation induction time as independent risk factors for EFS in this population.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates if the Pfannenstiel skin incision during cesarean deliveries can be modified based on the size of the fetal head's occipitofrontal diameter (OFD).
- Among 114 nulliparous women, the incision length was closely aligned with the fetal head size, achieving a 95.6% success rate without extensions for the majority.
- The technique allows for a more cosmetic incision while maintaining safety and comparable outcomes for newborns.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess serum C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) and androgen levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) compared to healthy women.
- Out of 90 women aged 18 to 40, 36 were diagnosed with PCOS and showed significantly higher levels of various androgens and CNP, alongside a lower sex-hormone-binding globulin level.
- The findings suggest elevated CNP in PCOS patients, indicating potential links to hyperandrogenism and anovulation, warranting further research into these relationships.
Does asporin have a role in polycystic ovary syndrome? A pilot study.
Rev Assoc Med Bras (1992)
May 2022
Objective: Asporin is secreted by theca cells in the mouse ovaries and is an effective marker at the gonadotropin-independent stage in secondary follicle development. It has an inhibitory effect on transforming growth factor beta and bone morphogenic proteins, which are involved in androgenesis process. Our aim was to compare serum asporin levels of polycystic ovary syndrome and control groups and examine the relationship between asporin and hyperandrogenism.

Rev Assoc Med Bras (1992)
March 2021
Objective: This study aimed to examine inflammation markers in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and to compare them with healthy women.
Methods: This prospective study was conducted by examining patients who applied to the Near East University Gynecology and Obstetrics Outpatient Clinic between January 2019 and January 2020. A total of 110 PCOS patients with 135 control groups were compared in terms of metabolism, hormonal factors, and inflammation markers.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between thyroid function status and bone mineral density (BMD) among women with postmenopausal osteoporosis.
Methods: A retrospective study was performed among 1217 women aged 45-80years who attended the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Dokuz Eylul University, Izmir, Turkey, between August 1, 2009, and June 1, 2013. Eligible participants were grouped according to the presence or absence of osteoporosis as defined by BMD measurements at the lumbar vertebrae (L1-L4), femoral neck, or trochanter of the femur.
