PURPOSE: Infertility affects 1 in 6 couples, yet male fertility assessments often rely on semen analysis alone, which has limited predictive value for treatment success. This study evaluates an epigenetic tool for assessing sperm quality, a…

BackgroundThe optimal strategy for lower extremity revascularization (surgical bypass versus endovascular intervention) in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) is unclear. We examined the effectiveness of open surgical byp…

BACKGROUND: Regular menstruation represents reproductive health and quality of life of women. However, many women suffer from menstrual disorders at some point in their life. The occurrence of such abnormalities is affected by two key facto…

Our objective was to test whether p53 expression status is associated with survival for women diagnosed with the most common ovarian carcinoma histotypes (high-grade serous carcinoma [HGSC], endometrioid carcinoma [EC], and clear cell carci…

BACKGROUND: Our study aimed to establish 'real-world' performance and cost-effectiveness of ovarian cancer (OC) surveillance in women with pathogenic germline BRCA1/2 variants who defer risk-reducing bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO). …

Assisted Reproductive technology encompasses all techniques involving ovarian stimulation to produce high-quality oocytes and manipulation of both oocytes and sperm in vitro to produce embryos for the purpose of reproduction. The final matu…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between hysterectomy with conservation of one or both adnexa and ovarian and tubal cancer. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. SETTING: Thirteen NHS Trusts in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. P…

AIMS: Allergic airway disease manifestation is induced by lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) through CD1d-restricted Natural killer T (NKT) cells. Choline chloride (ChCl) and LPC both have the "choline" moiety in their structure and this may int…

Background During the peak of the Omicron wave, elective laparoscopic surgeries were restricted; however, semi-emergency and emergency cases were managed despite the limited resources and manpower. We conducted this study to assess the type…

Multifaceted and divergent manifestations across tissues and cell types have curtailed advances in deciphering the cellular events that accompany advanced age and contribute to morbidities and mortalities. Increase in human lifespan during …

According to our systematic literature review (PRISMA guidelines), only 37 vulvar squamous cell carcinomas (VSCCs) were diagnosed during pregnancy (age range: 17-41 years). The tumor size range was 0.3-15 cm. The treatment was performed aft…

Histopathologic classification of endocervical adenocarcinomas (EAC) has recently changed, with the new system based on human papillomavirus (HPV)-related morphologic features being incorporated into the 5th edition of the WHO Blue Book (Cl…

BACKGROUND: Risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy is the 'gold standard' for preventing tubo-ovarian cancer in women at increased risk. However, when performed in pre-menopausal women, it results in premature menopause and associated detrimen…

Abstract ARID1A (BAF250a) is a component of the SWI/SNF chromatin modifying complex, plays an important tumor suppressor role, and is considered prognostic in several malignancies. However, in ovarian carcinomas there are contradictory repo…

BackgroundTwo phase 3 clinical trials showed that use of a monthly vaginal ring containing 25 mg dapivirine was well tolerated and reduced HIV-1 incidence in women by approximately 30% compared with placebo. We aimed to evaluate use and saf…

OBJECTIVE: : To examine the effect of paternal age on intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) outcomes in unexplained infertility. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: : This retrospective study, done at the Hamad Medical Corporation, Doha, Qatar screene…

ARID1A (BAF250a) is a component of the SWI/SNF chromatin modifying complex, plays an important tumour suppressor role, and is considered prognostic in several malignancies. However, in ovarian carcinomas there are contradictory reports on i…

BACKGROUND: PTEN loss is a putative driver in histotypes of ovarian cancer (high-grade serous (HGSOC), endometrioid (ENOC), clear cell (CCOC), mucinous (MOC), low-grade serous (LGSOC)). We aimed to characterise PTEN expression as a biomarke…

BACKGROUND: One rarely finds Indian women talking about their sexuality like this due to sex taboo in our society. This does not mean that sexual dysfunction is uncommon in Indian women. Female sexual dysfunction is widely prevalent. AIM A…

Cervical screening in low-resource settings remains an unmet need. Lectins are naturally occurring sugar-binding glycoproteins whose binding patterns change as cancer develops. Lectins discriminate between dysplasia and normal tissue in sev…

Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecologic neoplasm in developed countries; however, updated universal guidelines are currently not available to handle specimens obtained during the surgical treatment of patients affected by this dis…

ABSTRACT Endometriosis is a chronic incurable disorder of unknown etiology affecting a large proportion of women in reproductive age. In order to understand the pathogenesis and preclinical testing of drugs,animal models that recapitulate t…

Although endometrial carcinoma (EC) is generally considered to have a good prognosis, over 20% of women with EC die of their disease, with a projected increase in both incidence and mortality over the next few decades. The aim of accurate p…
