OBJECTIVE Two low-dose levonorgestrel intrauterine contraceptive systems (LNG-IUSs; total content 13.5 mg [average approx. 8 μg/24 hours over the first year; LNG-IUS 8] and total content 19.5 mg [average approx. 13 μg/24 hours over the first year; LNG-IUS 13]) have previously been shown to be highly effective (3-year Pearl Indices: 0.33 and 0.31, respectively), safe and well tolerated. The pres...
OBJECTIVES To determine the ability of Bishop score and sonographic cervical length to predict time to spontaneous onset of labor and time to delivery in prolonged pregnancy. METHODS Ninety-seven women underwent transvaginal ultrasound examination and palpation of the cervix at 291-296 days' gestation according to ultrasound fetometry at 12-20 weeks' gestation. Sonographic cervical length and...
Pregnancy and childbirth are associated with hemodynamic changes and vascular remodeling. It is not known whether parity is associated with later adverse vascular properties such as larger arterial diameter, wall thickness, and lower distensibility. We used baseline data from 3283 women free of cardiovascular disease aged 45 to 84 years enrolled in the population-based Multi-Ethnic Study of Ath...
BACKGROUND: Urinary incontinence (UI) is a frequent public health problem with negative social consequences, particularly for women. Female susceptibility is the result of anatomical, social, economic and cultural factors. The main objectives of this study are to evaluate the prevalence of UI in the female population of Andorra over the age of 15 and, specifically, to determine the influence of...
OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that it is possible to select a group of low risk women who can start labour in midwife-led care without having increased rates of severe adverse maternal outcomes compared to women who start labour in secondary care. DESIGN AND METHODS We conducted a nationwide cohort study in the Netherlands, using data from 223 739 women with a singleton pregnancy between 3...
Breast cancer, like most cancers, is increasingly understood to be a biologically heterogeneous disease. That biological heterogeneity, in turn, has considerable implications for breast cancer epidemiology , such that separate evaluation of biologically-distinct tumor subtypes may offer greater insight into disease etiology and prognosis. In this issue of the Journal, Palmer et al. present a re...
BACKGROUND Experimental and epidemiologic data suggest that higher circulating prolactin is associated with breast cancer risk; however, how various risk factors for breast cancer influence prolactin levels in healthy women is not clear. METHODS We analyzed cross-sectional associations between several suggested reproductive and lifestyle risk factors for breast cancer and circulating prolacti...
BACKGROUND The breast cancer (BC) risk profiles of African women differ significantly from those of women of European ancestry. African women are younger at the age of onset and tend to have high parity. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between full-term pregnancy (FTP) and the risk of BC. METHODS A case-control study was conducted among 1995 women with invasive BC an...
Evidence has been provided that pelvic endometriosis is significantly associated with uterine adenomyosis and that the latter constitutes the major factor of infertility in such conditions. Furthermore, it has become evident that both adenomyosis and endometriosis constitute a pathophysiological and nosological entity. Mild peritoneal endometriosis of the fertile woman and premenopausal adenomy...
