Abstract Purpose Uterine anomalies are prevalent in women, and the major treatment assisted to them is hysterectomy as donor availability extremely low. To overcome this, engineering uterine myometrium smooth muscle tissue has become very important. Several studies have shown that polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers effective muscles, this type of scaffold structural similarities extracellular ma...

home uterine activity monitoring (huam) has demonstrated to be of great value for preventing preterm labor in recent years. in this research, a low cost monitoring device for non-invasive monitoring of the uterine activity in pregnant women is presented. the new device has been designed based on an inductive colpitz oscillator and vertical displacement of a ferrite core in a coil. the resulting...
