Purpose: This study is to evaluate duration of oocyte cryostorage and association with thaw survival, fertilization, blastulation, ploidy rates, and pregnancy outcomes in patients seeking fertility preservation.

Methods: Retrospective cohort study to evaluate clinical outcomes in patients who underwent fertility preservation from 2011 to 2023 via oocyte vitrification for non-oncologic indications. Primary outcome was thaw survival rate.

Cell-to-cell communication is a major process for accommodating cell functioning to changes in the environments and to preserve tissue and organism homeostasis. It is achieved by different mechanisms characterized by the origin of the message, the molecular nature of the messenger, its speed of action and its reach. Purinergic signalling is a powerful mechanism initiated by extracellular nucleotides, such as ATP, acting on plasma membrane purinoreceptors.

  • * Current treatments for eumycetoma, largely relying on antifungal drugs and surgery, have low success rates and high chances of relapse.
  • * Researchers have synthesized 47 new chemical compounds that show better effectiveness and lower toxicity than existing treatments, particularly one compound that performed similarly to the standard drug itraconazole, suggesting they could be safer options for treating eumycetoma.
