BACKGROUND: Poor ovarian reserve and a high rate of pregnancy failure associated with low quality and quantity of oocytes are observed in poor responders to in vitro fertilization. OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of age, body mass index (B…

This article aimed to address the role of physicians in future health in the disruptive era. Physicians in this disruptive era must increase their capability and knowledge to compensate for this development. Advances in technology increase …

BACKGROUND: Few studies have assessed the impact of serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels before oocyte retrieval and luteinizing hormone receptor (LHR) mRNA expression. AIMS: The objective was to assess the correlations between …

BACKGROUND: Implantation failure has long been identified as a common problem underlying low success rate of IVF. Currently, endometrial receptivity has gained expert attention as it is demonstrated to contribute to successful embryo implan…

Background: Endometriosis is one of the most common conditions causing infertility and an indication to undergo in vitro fertilization (IVF). High apoptosis rate and oxidative stress in patients with endometriosis are believed to negativel…

Objective: The increasing prevalence of infertility every year is in line with the increasing need for in vitro fertilization (IVF) programs. Failure of oocyte maturation is an obstacle that often causes low success in IVF. According to sev…

BACKGROUND: The evaluation of embryo morphology is one of the most important parameters used to evaluate developmental timing, also providing an indication of chromosomal failure or degeneration. The first step in the evaluation of a fertil…

Endometriosis is a female reproductive disorder that can cause infertility by lowering oocyte quality due to a low quality of oocytes. Granulosa cell assessment is a minimally invasive procedure for determining oocyte quality. Bone morphoge…

Endometriosis may cause ovarian physiology disturbances and one of them, by affecting folliculogenesis that leads to a decreased oocyte quality. The oocyte plays an important role in regulating and promoting follicle growth by oocyte growth…

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a frequent gynecological disorder. Its findings on the abdominal wall are rare cases, usually reported with a history of former surgery. The activation of PPARy expression could be one of alternative non-hormo…

Growth differentiation factor-9 (GDF9) and bone morphogenetic 15 (BMP15) are oocyte-secreted factors (OSF) that are proteins and are members of the transforming growth factor β superfamily with roles in folliculogenesis to produce mature oo…

Implantation and growth of endometriosis was determined by immune cell. There were several immunologic cells that promoting implantation and cell proliferation such as macrophages, Natural killer, lymphocyte and monocyte. Infected endometri…

Objective: To understand the outcome on conservative surgical treatment of adenomyosis. Methods: A retrospective cohort study followed for 2 years from 2010 to 2012 of women with adenomyosis were diagnosed by transvaginal sonography a…

We describe a case of acute liver failure in a patient with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma related to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis during sorafenib treatment. A 74-year-old man with diabetes mellitus and hypertension was diagnosed with h…

The overexpression of estrogen receptor-beta (ER-s) and the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme coupled with the absence of expression of progesterone receptors (PR) is critical to thepathogenesis of endometriosis and adenomyosis associated pai…
