Inflammatory Responses of Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Vitro Differ from Healthy Women
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a low-grade inflammatory state with increased serum levels of TNFα. The present study has compared the inflammatory responses to breast cancer cell lines in women with PCOS with healthy women. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from 50 women with PCOS and 50 healthy controls were cultured in the trans-well co-culture system. These cells were ...
متن کاملA novel midstream urine-collection device reduces contamination rates in urine cultures amongst women.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate a novel urine-collection device (UCD) that automatically collects a midstream urine (MSU) sample, and compare contamination rates to those of the conventional MSU sampling method, as the contamination of urine samples for microbiological analysis in women leads to diagnostic ambiguity and unnecessary costs, and may result in part from an incorrect collection procedure. P...

متن کاملEvaluation of urine sampling technique: bacterial contamination of samples from women students.
A urine specimen is traditionally sampled using the clean-catch midstream technique, but this technique is poorly documented. The aim of this study was to evaluate the bacterial content of urine samples taken using individual steps of the clean-catch midstream technique, or combinations of steps. One hundred and ten women students provided a total of 864 early morning urine samples, using a dif...
متن کاملCollection of urine from women for bacteriological examination.
The reliability and convenience of different methods of collecting midstream urine specimens free from significant contamination was investigated in controlled trials. Young and middleaged women, including those in early pregnancy, easily provided satisfactory specimens without the help of a nurse. It was more difficult to obtain good specimens from old or infirm patients, but collection was ma...
