Coffee consumption for recovery of intestinal function after laparoscopic gynecological surgery: A randomized controlled trial.

Backround: To investigate the effect of postoperative coffee consumption on bowel motility after laparoscopic gynecological surgery.

Materials And Methods: In this randomized controlled trial, patients were allocated postoperatively to 3 cups of either coffee or warm water at 6, 12, or 18 h after the operation. Total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingectomy were performed on all patients.

Can coffee consumption be used to accelerate the recovery of bowel function after cesarean section? Randomized prospective trial.

Objectives: To evaluate whether coffee consumption accelerates the recovery of bowel function after cesarean section or not.

Material And Methods: This study was designed as randomized controlled study. Patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups: Ultimately, Group 1 (n = 51) was the study group and drank three cups of coffee after cesarean, whereas group 2 (n = 52) was not given any treatment.

An Interesting Relationship Between Maternal Adipose Tissue Thickness and Maternal Pelvicalyceal System Dilatation.

Purpose: To evaluate whether maternal body mass index (BMI), visceral adipose tissue (VAT) thickness, and sub-cutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) thickness have effects on maternal pelvicalyceal system dilatation, which develops during pregnancy.

Materials And Methods: Between April 2018 and November 2018, a total of 120 pregnant women aged between 18-35 years in their third trimester were included in this prospective observational study. For each pregnant wom-an, SAT and VAT thicknesses were measured and renal sonography was performed by the same radiologist and obstetric ultrasound was performed by the same obstetrician.

Does the Pituitary Gland Volume Change in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome?

Aims: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the commonest cause of menstrual irregularity and hirsutism during reproductive age. We hypothesized in the alterations in the pituitary gland in PCOS.

Methods: We measured the volume of the pituitary gland in 39 PCOS patients and 42 age-matched healthy controls using 0.

Massive Ascites and Pleural Effusion in Preeclampsia.

Preeclampsia is defined as new onset hypertension and proteinuria after 20 weeks of gestation and complicates approximately 2-8% of all pregnancies. Release of vasoconstrictive agents, endothelial damage, hyperpermeability of the capillaries and microangiopathic haemolysis involves the basic pathophysiology. It has variable clinical presentation.

Bone loss & platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio.

Aim: The aim of the study is to assess the possible relation of platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), neutrophil-to-platelet ratio and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels with low bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women.

Methodology: In total, 211 postmenopausal women were divided into two groups according to their T-score results. The control group consisted of 32 and BMD group consisted of 179 patients.

Impaired olfactory function in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine disorder which affects 6.6% of women of child-bearing age. Although olfactory dysfunction is frequent in the population and it negatively affects quality of life, neither physicians or patients consider this important.

Maternal serum amyloid A levels in pregnancies complicated with preterm prelabour rupture of membranes.

Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate a possible association between maternal serum amyloid A levels (SAA) and maternal and fetal parameters in pregnancies complicated with preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM).

Material And Methods: A total of 88 pregnant women (PPROM group, n = 44 and control group, n = 44) were included into this prospective case control study Serum blood samples for SAA were obtained from both groups within 1 h since the rupture of the membranes and before administration of any medicine. The samples were kept frozen at -70 degrees C until the analysis.
