Although pregnancy has become more frequent in patients undergoing hemodialysis, it remains a relatively rare event and carries a high risk of complications for both the mother and the fetus. In parallel, multiple pregnancies are also associated with a high risk of complications for the mother and the fetus, even in healthy women. The presence of a twin pregnancy in a woman with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis is an even rarer event and is considered a very high-risk situation. We describe the case of a 31-year-old hemodialysis patient who successfully gave birth to twins at 29 weeks after a period of alternate diurnal and nocturnal hemodialysis.

Twin testosterone transfer hypothesis and the second-to-fourth digit ratio in females of same-sex and opposite-sex twin pairs: An exploratory study.
Physiol Rep

Department of Epidemiology, Biostatistics and Disease Control, University for Development Studies, Tamale, Ghana.
The twin testosterone transfer (TTT) hypothesis posits that females with male co-twins (opposite-sex, OS) might develop male-typical traits due to higher prenatal testosterone exposure. This study explored whether females of OS have lower 2D:4D digit ratios and higher testosterone levels compared to females of same-sex (SS) twin pairs. Conducted in Tamale from January to December 2022, the study included 40 participants aged 18-27 years: 10 males of OS, 10 females of OS, and 20 females of SS twin pairs.

Graves' disease (GD) and gestational transient thyrotoxicosis (GTT) are the most common causes of thyrotoxicosis during pregnancy, with prevalence ranging from 0.1% to 1% and from 1% to 3%, respectively. Hyperthyroidism during pregnancy can have severe consequences if not promptly recognized and treated.

The Effects of Three Methods of Luteal Phase Support on Pregnancy Outcomes in Poor Ovarian Responders: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Background: The effectiveness of changing the type of luteal phase support in patients with poor ovarian response (POR) remains unclear based on the available evidence. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of various luteal phase support (LPS) methods, including progesterone alone, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) alone, and the combination of progesterone with hCG, in these patients.
Materials And Methods: In this randomized clinical trial, 375 patients diagnosed with POR based on the Bologna criteria underwent intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transfer (ET) cycles at the Royan Institute between November 2015 and June 2019.
