Altered Transcriptional Regulation of Cytokines, Growth Factors, and Apoptotic Proteins in the Endometrium of Infertile Women with Chronic Endometritis
·doi:10.1111/aji.12076

PROBLEM: Chronic endometritis (CE) is a poorly investigated and probably underestimated pathology, which may cause abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB), pain, and reproductive failures. Due to undefined symptoms and the normal presence of leukoc…

article 2011
Accuracy and efficacy of narrow-band imaging versus white light hysteroscopy for the diagnosis of endometrial cancer and hyperplasia
·doi:10.1097/gme.0b013e31821221cd

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate, in a multicenter study, whether the narrow-band imaging (NBI) technology may improve the diagnostic reliability of hysteroscopy in the diagnosis of endometrial cancer and hyperplasia. METHOD…

article 2010
Correspondence between hysteroscopic and histologic findings in women with chronic endometritis
·doi:10.3109/00016349.2010.498496

OBJECTIVE: To estimate if findings in women with chronic endometritis (CE) at fluid hysteroscopy correlate with the severity of inflammation at histology and to assess the possibility to score the severity of inflammation by fluid hysterosc…

article 2010
Risk of long-term pelvic recurrences after fluid minihysteroscopy in women with endometrial carcinoma
·doi:10.1097/gme.0b013e3181c8534d

OBJECTIVE: Concerns exist about the risk of endometrial cancer cells spreading into the peritoneal cavity after fluid minihysteroscopy. The aim of our study was to evaluate the 5-year incidence of pelvic recurrences in women affected by ear…

article 2008
Altered Uterine Contractility Pattern in Woman Affected by Chronic Endometritis
·doi:10.1016/j.jmig.2008.09.457
other 2008
Chronic endometritis: correlation among hysteroscopic, histologic, and bacteriologic findings in a prospective trial with 2190 consecutive office hysteroscopies
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2007.03.074

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the type and etiopathogenic role of infectious agents detected in endometrial cultures obtained from women with chronic endometritis (CE). DESIGN: Prospective controlled study. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT…

article 2008
Peritoneal fluid concentrations of progesterone in women are higher close to the corpus luteum compared with elsewhere in the abdominal cavity
·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2008.05.044
review 2007
Intravaginal oestrogen and progestin administration: advantages and disadvantages
Best practice & research. Clinical obstetrics & gynaecology ·doi:10.1016/j.bpobgyn.2007.08.010
article 2007
OP11.02: The sonographic evaluation of subendometrial wave‐like activity in patients with endometritis
·doi:10.1002/uog.4508

The uterus shows wavelike activity (WA) throughout the menstrual cycle. Transvaginal sonography (TVS) has made it possible to study the movements of the subendometrial layers of the myometrium. Several WA patterns have been described. They …

review 2007
Peritoneal fluid as an unrecognised vector between female reproductive tissues
·doi:10.1080/00016340601155098

This essay discusses the potential contribution of peritoneal fluid to the regulation of reproductive processes in female mammals. After noting the relatively high concentrations of diverse hormones in peritoneal fluid, and accepting that i…

article 2007
Rapid endometrial preparation for hysteroscopic surgery with oral desogestrel plus vaginal raloxifene: a prospective, randomized pilot study
·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2006.11.151
article 2005
A dominant ovarian follicle induces unilateral changes in the origin of the blood supply to the tubal corner of the uterus
·doi:10.1093/humrep/dei179

BACKGROUND: The blood supply to the tubal corner of the uterus may originate from the uterine and ovarian arteries. The border of supply from the arteries has been found to move in young women; the change seemed dependent on ovarian steroid…

review 2004
The Patterns of Uterine Contractility in Normal Menstruating Women: From Physiology to Pathology
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences ·doi:10.1196/annals.1335.007

The nonpregnant uterus shows uterine activity throughout the menstrual cycle. This uterine activity was detected both by single strep tissue and by using intrauterine pressure recordings in vitro and in vivo. Today, ultrasound has made it p…

Erratum: Endometriosis: Absence of recurrence in patients after endometrial ablation (Human Reproduction 16 (2676-2679))
article 2000
Mechanisms of uterine specificity of vaginal progesterone
·doi:10.1093/humrep/15.suppl_1.159

Endometrial transformations achieved by vaginal progesterone exceed those normally expected from the circulating concentrations obtained, this suggests some degree of direct vagina to uterus transport. We speculate on the different mechanis…
