This study checked the efficacy of progesterone (P4) device reinsertion during the early luteal phase on luteal function and embryo yield in superovulated crossbred ewes. Twenty multiparous ewes received an intravaginal P4 device for nine days (D0 to D9) followed by six decreasing doses (25, 25, 15, 15, 10, 10%) of 133 mg pFSH i.m.

Methods: Retrospective cohort which pregnant women were divided into three groups: normal uterine artery Doppler between 20-24 and 26-28 weeks (controls), abnormal uterine artery Doppler between 20-24 and normal between 26-28 weeks (anUtA), and abnormal uterine artery Doppler between 20-24 and 26-28 weeks (aaUtA). To compare adverse perinatal results between the groups Chi-square test was used.

Background: The prevalence of congenital abnormalities in general populations is approximately 3-5%. One of the most important applications of obstetric ultrasound is in detection of fetal structural defects.
Objective: To assess fetal structural anomalies diagnosed using ultrasound in the three trimesters of pregnancy.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the presence of an intrauterine hematoma (IUH) on an early pregnancy ultrasound scan showing a live fetus was related to adverse perinatal outcomes.
Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study to evaluate pregnant women who underwent an ultrasound examination in early pregnancy, between 6 weeks 0 days and 10 weeks 6 days. We compared the perinatal outcomes between women with and without firsttrimester IUH using the Mann-Whitney and Fisher exact tests.
