BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disease, however the mechanisms underlying inflammation remain unclear. Non-hormonal drugs that can prevent endometriosis progression and resolve endometriotic infertil…
ImportancePostpartum hemorrhage (PPH) remains the leading cause of maternal mortality globally. Although traditional management relies on blood loss quantification, identifying cases resistant to conventional treatment remains challenging, …
Genital herpes, caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV) types 1 and 2, is a common sexually transmitted disease typically presenting with genital lesions and discomfort. However, a cervical mass without vulvar lesions is a rare manifestation o…
BRCA1 is one of the causative genes for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome with a high risk of early-onset breast cancer. Whereas olaparib (OLA), an inhibitor of poly-ADP-ribose polymerase, has been applied as adjuvant therapy to…
BackgroundLow birth weight (LBW) is a leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality, and increases various disease risks across life stages. Prediction models of LBW have been developed before, but have limitations including small sampl…
5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is a natural amino acid and a precursor of heme and chlorophyll. Exogenously administered 5-ALA is metabolized into protoporphyrin IX (PpIX). PpIX accumulates in cancer cells because of the low activity of ferr…
Abstract Background Endometriosis is a complex syndrome characterized by an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory process that affects 10% of women of reproductive age. Ovarian endometriosis (OE) is the most common lesion in endometriosis…
BackgroundIn Japan, dilatation & curettage (D&C) has been performed under general anesthesia as a surgery for an early pregnancy miscarriage for a long time. In 2016, manual vacuum aspiration (MVA) under general anesthesia was introduced at…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian endometrioma is a common gynecological disease that is often treated with surgery or hormonal treatment. Ovarian cystectomy, a surgical procedure for ovarian endometrioma, can result in impaired ovarian reserve. METHODS…
AIM: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the current state and clinical characteristics of spontaneous hemoperitoneum in pregnancy (SHiP) in Japan by performing a comprehensive survey. METHODS: We reviewed data on pregnant women who …
When transplacental therapy is conducted, the maternal serum concentrations of digoxin and flecainide may fluctuate throughout third trimester. Therefore, TDM may be effective in improving the efficacy and safety of treatment.
Introduction Microwave endometrial ablation (MEA) is beginning to be used widely in Japan as a minimally invasive alternative to conventional total hysterectomy for functional hypermenorrhea, uterine fibroids, hypermenorrhea due to organic …
BackgroundThe World Health Organization does not recommend dilatation and sharp curettage (D&C) for the surgical treatment of miscarriage during the first trimester because this may cause Asherman's syndrome due to endometrial damage; there…
BACKGROUND: Cotyledonoid dissecting leiomyoma is a rare variant of uterine smooth muscle tumor with an unusual growth pattern that shows intramural dissection within uterine myometrium and often a placenta-like appearance in its extrauterin…
Endometriosis is observed in ∼10% of reproductive age women. Ovarian endometriosis not only causes dysmenorrhea but also causes infertility and a high risk of adenocarcinoma. Due to its scattered nature, complete surgical resection is diffi…
Peptic ulcer is one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders with complex etiology. Recently we conducted the genome wide association study for duodenal ulcer and identified disease susceptibility variations at two genetic loci corresp…
OBJECTIVE: Our purpose was to evaluate the normal and pathologic internal textures of the ovary using laparoscopy-assisted intrapelvic sonography (LAIPS) with a specially developed 20-MHz flexible catheter-based high-resolution real-time mi…
Adenomyosis is a condition characterized by benign invasion of the endometrium into the myometrium associated with reactive hypertrophy of the surrounding musculature. The ectopic endometrium in adenomyosis is of the basalis type, and menst…
OBJECTIVE: To determine the distribution of catalase in eutopic and ectopic endometria in patients with endometriosis or adenomyosis. DESIGN: Retrospective randomized study. SETTING: Department of obstetrics and gynecology in a university…
ObjectiveTo assess the effects of danazol on immunocompetent cells, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) expression, and adhesion molecules in the eutopic endometrium of patients with endometriosis.DesignAntigens were localized immunohistochemical…
