The Significance of Plant Nutrition in the Creation of the Intestinal Microbiota-Prevention of Chronic Diseases: A Narrative Review.

Dysbiosis of the gastrointestinal tract is the most common cause of disease in childhood and adulthood. The formation of the intestinal microbiome begins in utero, and composition modification during life depends mainly on various genetic, nutritional, and environmental factors. The main cause of intestinal dysbiosis is improper nutrition due to a short period of breastfeeding, insufficient intake of fresh fruits and vegetables, and/or consumption of a large amount of processed food.

The likelihood of detecting abnormal karyotypes in fetuses with a single major anomaly or "soft" marker on ultrasonographic scanning.

Objective: Fetuses with abnormal karyotypes often exhibit distinctive ultrasonographic markers, including major anomalies and "soft" markers, indicating potential chromosomal issues. A crucial consideration arises when a single fetal anomaly is detected, raising the question of whether karyotyping is warranted, given the associated procedural risks. Our objective was to establish correlations between single fetal anomalies identified through ultrasound and chromosomal abnormalities.

Psychological Distress in the Republic of Serbia, the Association of Social Characteristics and Substance Use on a National Representative Sample of Serbia.

This study examined the association between social characteristics, substance use, and psychological distress in a national representative sample of adults in Serbia. It was a secondary analysis of the National Survey on Lifestyles in Serbia: Substance Abuse and Gambling 2018. The study included a total of 2000 participants aged 18 to 65 from the general population in Serbia.

Programming Factors of Neonatal Intestinal Dysbiosis as a Cause of Disease.

The intestinal microbiota consists of trillions of bacteria, viruses, and fungi that achieve a perfect symbiosis with the host. They perform immunological, metabolic, and endocrine functions in the body. The microbiota is formed intrauterine.

The Significance of COVID-19 Diseases in Lipid Metabolism Pregnancy Women and Newborns.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by SARS-CoV-2. Elderly people, people with immunodeficiency, autoimmune and malignant diseases, as well as people with chronic diseases have a higher risk of developing more severe forms of the disease. Pregnant women and children can becomesick, although more often they are only the carriers of the virus.

Uptake of Human Papillomavirus Vaccine and Intention to Vaccinate among Healthy Pregnant Women in Serbia: A Cross-Sectional Study on Awareness, Knowledge, and Attitudes.

We aimed to assess awareness, knowledge, and attitudes of healthy pregnant women towards human papillomavirus (HPV), to estimate factors associated with a positive attitude towards HPV immunization and to assess the uptake of the vaccine among their children. A cross-sectional study was conducted at the University Clinic of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Belgrade, Serbia among pregnant women attending their regular gynecological check-ups at the 12th gestational week. Knowledge about HPV and HPV vaccine was assessed using a specifically designed 12-item and 5-item questionnaires.

Differences in anthropometric and ultrasonographic parameters between adolescent girls with regular and irregular menstrual cycles: a case-study of 835 cases.

Study Objective: Exploring the relation between the age, time since menarche, anthropometric parameters and the growth of the uterus and ovaries in postmenarcheal girls.

Design: Cross sectional.

Setting: Department of Human reproduction at a tertiary pediatric referral center.

[Term pregnancy after minimally invasive surgical treatment of Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome].

Introduction: Uterus didelphys with obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis represents a complex congenital anomaly, also known in the literature as Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich (HWW) syndrome.

Case Outline: A 16-year-old patient presented with secondary amenorrhoea and abdominal pain. Her history revealed anorexia nervosa; she had menarche at the age of 14; her menstrual cycles were regular, with progressive dysmenorrhoea.

[Maternal autoimmune thyroid disease and pregnancy complication].

Background/aim: Thyroid disorders exert a great impact on pregnancy course and outcome. The aim of the study was to investigate impact of autoimmune thyroid disorders on pregnancy course and outcome, frequency of pregnancy complications and pregnancy loss.

Methods: We followed 63 pregnancies prospectively during the period 1985-2007, 28 with hyperthyroid and 15 with hypothyroid autoimmune disorders, and 20 healthy pregnancies.

Full-term interstitial retroperitoneal pregnancy with delivery of a healthy infant.

Implantation in the interstitial part of the oviduct is frequently associated with severe fetal and maternal morbidity. We present a patient with primary interstitial and secondary retroperitoneal ectopic pregnancy. The suspicion of an ectopic pregnancy was raised after an ultrasound examination during the 18th week of pregnancy.

[Spontaneous intra-abdominal bleeding in twin pregnancy--case report].

Introduction: Spontaneous rupture of utero-ovarian vessels is a rare cause of haemoperitoneum in pregnancy, leading to significant maternal and foetal morbidity and mortality. Aetiopathogenesis of this condition is still unclear. Establishing clinical diagnosis of this condition is difficult, but very important.

Influence of adiposity on leptin, LH and androgen levels in lean, overweight and obese PCOS patients.

Background: Leptin modulates hypothalamic-pituitary-gohadal axis functions.

Objective: To assess the influence of leptin on LH, and to investigate the potential association of leptin with body mass index (BMI) and androgen concentrations in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

Design: Levels of leptin, LH, FSH, E2, testosterone, and androstenedione were measured.

[Uterine torsion in term pregnancy].

Introduction: Uterine torsion has been defined as a rotation of more than 45 degrees of the uterus around its long axis that occurs at the junction between the cervix and the corpus. The extent of the rotation is usually 180 degrees, although cases with torsion from 60 to 720 degrees have been reported. Aetiopathogenesis of this condition is still unclear.

The most frequent hormone dysfunctions in juvenile bleeding.

The main goal of this study was to investigate the precise hormone dysfunction that leads to dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) in adolescent girls so that, with the appropriate therapy, the occurrence of organic dysfunctions of their reproductive function can be prevented. This study included 70 adolescents with DUB aged 14.70 +/- 1.
