Association between prenatal period exposure to ambient air pollutants and development of postpartum depression: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

There is body of evidence supporting a role for maternal exposure to ambient air pollutants and postpartum depression (PPD). We attempted to review the literature systematically to assess the association between exposure to both ambient air particulate matters within pregnancy and PPD. The effect estimates extracting across each study were standardized to a 10 μg/m3 change.

The effect of phytoestrogens () in combination with clomiphene in ovulation induction in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome: A clinical trial study.

Objective: Phytoestrogens can be used as an alternative to clomiphene for ovulation induction in patients with polycystic ovarian (PCO). In this study, we evaluated the impact of phytoestrogens () in combination with clomiphene on the endometrium thickness and follicle number in women with PCO.

Gestational diabetes mellitus and inflammatory biomarkers of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and platelet-lymphocyte ratio: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: To evaluate the association between two inflammatory biomarkers of neutrophil -lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).

Methods And Materials: Systematic search was performed up to June 2020 in databases such as PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google scholar. The random-effects model was utilised to combine the weighted mean differences (WMDs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

Abdominal Wall Leiomyoma: A Case Report.

Background: Fibroma or leiomyoma is the most common benign tumor of the female reproductive system, which is usually found in the uterus, but may also occur in other places, such as the ovary, the broad ligament, and in rare cases in the abdominal wall. The formation of the abdominal wall leiomyoma may result from the implantation of myometrium tissue following surgical removal of the uterine leiomyoma, but sometimes these masses occur in a person who has no history of myomectomy.

Case Presentation: This case was a patient who became a candidate for laparoscopy due to abnormal uterine bleeding and pain in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen and ovarian mass.

Urtica dioica in comparison with placebo and acupuncture: A new possibility for menopausal hot flashes: A randomized clinical trial.

Objectives: The purpose of this research was to investigate the effect of Urtica dioica in comparison with placebo, acupuncture and combined therapy on hot flashes and quality of life in postmenopausal women.

Methods: In a double-blinded randomized controlled trial, patients were treated for 7 weeks then followed up 4 weeks. Seventy-two postmenopausal women who reported at least 20 hot flashes attacks per week were randomly allocated into one of the 4 groups of Urtica dioica 450 mg/day and acupuncture 11 sessions (A), acupuncture and placebo (B), sham acupuncture and Urtica dioica (C), and sham acupuncture and placebo (D).
