Genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) has a significantly negative impact on affected women's lives. However, despite the increasing number of GSM treatment options (e.g. non-hormonal vaginal products, vaginal hormones [estrogens], dehydroepiandrosterone [DHEA; prasterone], vaginal laser therapy, oral ospemifene), many women remain untreated. The goal of the Swiss interdisciplinary GSM consensus meeting was to develop tools for GSM management in daily practice: a GSM management algorithm (personalized medicine); a communication tool for vaginal DHEA (drug facts box); and a communication tool for understanding regulatory authorities and the discrepancy between scientific data and package inserts. The acceptance and applicability of such tools will be further investigated.

The Role and Mechanism of Perilla Alcohol in Counteracting Doxorubicin-Induced Nephrotic Syndrome.
Arch Esp Urol
December 2024
Pediatric Surgery, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, 250012 Jinan, Shandong, China.
Background: Doxorubicin (DOX) is a widely used anticancer drug; However, its nephrotoxicity limits its therapeutic efficacy. This study investigates the protective effects of Perilla Alcohol (PA) against DOX-induced nephrotic syndrome (NS), focusing on its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties through the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) pathways.
Methods: A DOX-induced nephrotic syndrome (NS) rat model and a DOX-treated Mouse Podocyte Cell line 5 (MPC5) cell model were used to evaluate the renal protective effects of PA.
Preeclampsia (PE) is a prevalent and severe pregnancy complication that significantly impacts maternal and perinatal health. Epidemiological studies and animal experiments have demonstrated that PE adversely affects the cardiovascular and nervous systems of offspring, increasing their risk of hypertension and renal pathology. However, the mechanisms underlying this increased risk remain unclear.

This study investigated the risk factors for endometrial hyperplasia (EH) and endometrial carcinoma (EC) in premenopausal women. The goal was to establish a nomogram model to predict the risk of EH/EC and quantitative standards in clinical practice, which improved the clinical prognosis of EH/EC patients. Data were collected from premenopausal women with suspected EH/EC who underwent hysteroscopic endometrial biopsy.

Article Synopsis
- Uterus transplantation is currently the only solution for women with absolute uterine infertility, such as those with Rokitansky syndrome, allowing them to experience pregnancy and childbirth.
- There are significant challenges with uterus transplantation, including the risks of ischemia-reperfusion injury and a notable thrombotic complication rate of up to 20%, which can lead to graft rejection.
- This protocol aims to outline the surgical steps for obtaining porcine uteruses and implementing dynamic preservation through machine perfusion, which may reduce hypoxic injury compared to traditional static cold storage methods.
Fetal Ascites: Its Prenatal Management and Postnatal Outcome.
J Obstet Gynaecol India
December 2024
Department of Fetal Medicine, Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences, Ponekkara, Kochi, Kerala 682041 India.
Objective: To report a single tertiary center experience in the management of prenatally diagnosed cases of fetal ascites and their postnatal outcomes.
Methods: Prenatally diagnosed fetal ascites cases were retrospectively analyzed from 2015 to 2022 using two-dimensional ultrasound with other investigations as required in a tertiary care center.
Results: Of 126 fetuses with fetal ascites, 70 progressed to hydrops and hence were excluded from the study.
