Uterine rupture in patients with healthy uterus during the 2 and 3 trimester of pregnancy is a rare and severe obstetric complication involving maternal and fetal vital prognosis as well as obstetrical outcome of patients in the absence of diagnosis and early treatment. It mainly occurs in women who have had scarred uterus and it is anecdotal in those with healthy uterus. We report the case of a primiparous patient with unscarred uterus who had had uterine rupture during labour induction with misoprostol for fetal death in utero (FDIU) due to intrauterine growth retardation (IGR) and severe oligohydramnios at 31 weeks of amenorrhea (WA). This study and the literature review highlights the importance of administrating misoprostol for labour induction with extreme caution as well as the clinical features, the risk factors, the diagnostic method and the therapeutic treatment of this rare but potentially serious condition.

Endometritis is one of the main reproductive disorders in mares and due to the increasing prevalence of antibiotic resistance, the use of probiotics in the prevention and treatment of endometritis in mares has gained interest, given their potential to restore and maintain a healthy uterine microbiota. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial properties of total metabolites of Lactobacillus acidophilus (LA) and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (LP) against common equine endometrial pathogenic bacteria in vitro (Acinetobacter baumannii, Escherichia coli (1), Escherichia coli (2), Escherichia coli (3), Escherichia coli (4), Enterobacter cloacae, Streptococcus equi, Staphylococcus warneri, Actinobacillus equi and Klebesiella pneumoniae), as well as to assess their low molecular weight metabolites (loM) and extracellular vesicle (EVs) inhibition capacity over a multidrug-resistant E. coli isolated from mares with clinical endometritis.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the potential utility of Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) signaling cell detection in the early diagnosis of cervical lesions.

Methods: Enrichment of cervical epithelial cells was carried out using a calibrated membrane with 8-μm diameter pores. RNA-in situ hybridization (RNA-ISH) was employed to detect and characterize EMT cells utilizing specific EMT markers.

Objectives: Despite advancements in modern medicine, the effectiveness of in vitro fertilization (IVF) remains low. This study aimed to assess the impact of specific features of T-shaped uterine cavity malformation and its intermediate forms on reproductive function and the effectiveness of assisted reproductive technology (ART), particularly on IVF results and pregnancy outcomes.

Methods: A prospective cohort study included 388 somatically healthy patients undergoing 3D ultrasound (US) examination of the uterine cavity before embryonic transfer for IVF treatment.
