The majority of cases of early preterm labour are associated with infection/inflammation, which places the fetal central nervous system at risk. Targeting immune activation is therefore an appealing therapeutic strategy for the prevention of preterm labour and neonatal brain injury. The expressi...

This study was carried out to evaluate follicular fluid (FF) Hcy, glucose and estradiol levels in IVF candidate PCOS women. Materials and Meth...
