In the last decades we found many data concerning the association between a hypercoagulable state and its causes and adverse pregnancy outcome, in particular recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). Although first studies were focused only on the association between thrombophilia and RPL, subsequent studies underlined also a potential role of antithrombotic treatment to prevent vascular complication suc...

Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is usually defined as the loss of three or more consecutive pregnancies before 20 weeks of gestation. Within this definition is a large and heterogeneous group of patients with many different causes of miscarriage. RPL is a common clinical problem that occurs in approximately 1 % of reproductive-aged women. However, this frequency increases up to 5% when clinician...

background: recurrent pregnancy loss (rpl) is defined as two or more miscarriages before the 20 th week of gestation and its etiology is unknown in 50% of the cases. interleukin 6 is an immune mediator, plays a regulatory role in embryo implantation and placental development. objective: the purpose was to assess the association between il-6 -634c/g polymorphism and, susceptibility to idiopathic...

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) regulates endothelial cell proliferation, migration and differentiation. VEGF plays a critical role in angiogenesis during placenta formation. We investigated whether VEGF gene polymorphisms are associated with recurrent pregnancy loss. Thirty-eight women with recurrent pregnancy loss and 30 control women with live-born children were recruited from 2010...

background: it is estimated that about 50% of causes of recurrent pregnancy loss (rpl) cases remain unknown. sperm factors are suggested to have probable role in cases with rpl. objective: the goal was to determine the possible relationship between semen bacterial contaminations with unexplained rpl. also, the correlation between number of bacterial colony and sperm chromatin condensation was e...

Background: Many advances have been made in reproductive medicine yet the spontaneous loss of a pregnancy remains the most common complication of pregnancy. The aetiology of spontaneous recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is multifactorial. Y chromosome microdeletions are found in approximately 7% of men with low sperm counts and, compared to the general population, a higher frequency of spontaneous...

This study was conducted in order to investigate the association between the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2305957 G/A and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) in a group of Palestinian women residing in Gaza strip. A retrospective case-control study was carried out during the period of May to August 2015. A total of 380 females including 190 recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) patients and 190 c...

recurrent abortion is a critical problem in which many factors play a crucial role such as anticordiolipin antibody and antiphospholipid antibody. this study was conducted to evaluate the frequency of anticardiolipin antibody and antiphospholipid antibody in pregnancy failures in women with the history of recurrent pregnancy loss. in 154 women with the history of two or more recurrent pregnancy...

Objective: Recurrent pregnancy loss is a global issue. This study was planned in order to evaluate the effects of high dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IV Ig) in primary and secondary unexplained miscarriages in patients of recurrent pregnancy loss. Patients and Methods: Total 168 couples having history of primary or secondary recurrent pregnancy loss were included in the study. They were divid...
