Objective:
To evaluate the relationship between miR-196a-2 rs11614913 polymorphism and ovarian cancer risk and pro...

Ectopic pregnancy occurs when a fertilized ovum implants outside of the uterine cavity. In the United States, the estimated prevalence of ectopic pregnancy is 1% to 2%, and ruptured ectopic pregnancy accounts for 2.7% of pregnancy-related deaths. Risk factors include a history of pelvic inflammatory disease, cigarette smoking, fallopian tube surger...
Background: pain after Cesarean delivery (CD) can negatively affect ambulation, breastfeeding, and maternal bonding. The aim of this study was to determine whether a correctly performed TAPB can provide better control of acute postoperative pain during the first 48 hours after CS and if it can provide a faster postoperative recovery. Patients and m...
the imaging modality of choice for the female pelvis. It is widely available, has broad acceptance by patients and is relatively inexpensive. High-resolution imaging of transvaginal ultrasound provides high diagnostic accuracy for pelvic pathology [3] used color Doppler ultrasonography to confirm the hypothesis that CIUD-induced bleeding is seconda...
Background: Postmenopause is defined as the permanent cessation of menstruation for one year due to failure of the ovarian follicular activity.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNA associated with ovarian follicle development and female fertility. The objective of this study was to investigate the role of miRNA- 320 and its t...
Background: Although, twenty-four hour urine collection was considered the gold standard for quantification of proteinuria, it has many limitations. It is cumbersome for the patient and often inaccurate because of under collection and result availability is delayed for at least 24 hours.
