Article Synopsis
- * Conducted on 150 women aged around 33.1 years postpartum, it used various assessments, including 2D and 3D/4D ultrasound, to measure muscle function and incontinence symptoms.
- * Results indicated a weak correlation between abdominal muscle separation and stress urinary incontinence as well as pelvic floor dysfunction, with no significant relationship to hiatal area size.
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of Diastasis of the rectus abdominis muscles (DRAM) and pelvic floor muscle dysfunction (PFMD) in postpartum women. Design: The observational prospective study.
Material: 150 of 180 women (83.
Background: Currently, there are not enough studies comparing the width of the linea alba in women with and without stress urinary incontinence in postpartum women. The primary aim of the study was to compare the width (IRD) in postpartum women with and without symptoms of stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The secondary aim of the study was to compare pelvic floor muscle morphometry in postpartum women with and without SUI symptoms.

Currently, examination by 2D ultrasound, caliper and palpation is used. It is examined at rest and during stress tests.

The crucial role of emilin 1 gene expression during progression of tumor growth.
J Cancer Res Clin Oncol
November 2016
Background: This study describes the effect of rapid tumor growth of patients suffering from various grades of malignant ductal breast carcinoma associated with the gene expression of ECM protein emilin 1, in correlation with the number of gene copies of emilin 1 and degradation of tumor tissue proteins.
Methods: A total of 40 examined patients participated in the experiment (controls, n = 10, grades GI-GIII, each n = 10). After isolation of total mRNA, transcription of mRNA into the cDNA was performed.
