UP-REGULATION OF INTERLEUKINS AND THEIR UNDERLYING PART TO DEVELOP ENDOMETRIOSIS IN WOMEN EXPERIENCING RETROGRADE MENSTRUATION
·doi:10.31032/ijbpas/2021/10.2.5390a

Endometriosis is associated with dyspareunia, dysmenorrhea and often severe pelvic pain as well as considered a chronic inflammatory disease, defined by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. An important general con…

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha promotes proliferation of endometriotic stromal cells by inducing interleukin-8 gene and protein expression
The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1210/jcem.85.2.6335

Endometriosis, a common disease among women of reproductive age, is characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus. We and others showed that several cytokine levels, including interleukin-8 (IL-8) and tumor nec…

[The evaluation of ultrasonic oocyte collection techniques for IVF-ET--comparing the transabdominal and transvaginal methods]
Nihon Sanka Fujinka Gakkai zasshi

In order to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ultrasonic oocyte collection for IVF-ET, a comparative study was performed on the results of IVF-ET by the transabdominal and transvaginal methods in 145 cycles of 51 patients. The oocyte…
