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...

Background and Aims: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is one of the important complications of pregnancy. Only 50% of cases have a known cause of RPL. One of the causes of RPL is Waddlia Chondrophila (W. Chondrophila), but no information is available regarding its in Iran. This study aimed to develop a Taqman Real-Time polymerase chain reaction assay to detect recA Gene of W. Chondrophilain biolo...

Curationis 28(4): 50-56 The National Qualifications Framework (NQF) was established to address the compartmentalization of education and training, the absence of norms and standards and the need for international recognition. According to the South African Qualifications Authority (1996),this framework was aimed at developing a comprehensive qualifications structure and an integrated approach t...

A significant growth was witnessed in the filed of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), the previous decade. Advances in hardware miniaturization coupled with increased processing capabilities and memory capacity have extended the application domains of WSNs. In light of this, standardization organizations led by academia and industries initiated activities for the design of protocols such as IEEE ...

BACKGROUND Immune-mediated recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) has received more attention than any other single etiologic classification. Individuals with rare blood group P have an antipp1pk antibody in their serum, which causes recurrent abortion in the early stages. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this case series study, 11 patients with unexplained RPL who had anti-P antibody in their serum were tre...

The origin of the stem is a major but poorly understood aspect of plant development, partly because the stem initiates in a relatively inaccessible region of the shoot apical meristem called the rib zone (RZ). We developed quantitative 3D image analysis and clonal analysis tools, which revealed that the Arabidopsis homeodomain protein REPLUMLESS (RPL) establishes distinct patterns of oriented c...

Background: The majority of miscarriages are sporadic; however, 1–5% of couples experience recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). Approximately 50–60% of miscarriages result from chromosomal abnormalities. Currently, there are conflicting reports regarding the rates of chromosomal abnormalities between recurrent and sporadic pregnancy losses. Methods: A retrospective comparative cytogenetic analysis o...

Interleukins are a group of immunomodulatory proteins that mediate a variety of immune reactions in the human body. To investigate the association between interleukin gene polymorphisms and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), we reviewed 21 studies from MEDLINE, EMBASE, OVID SP and PubMed to evaluate RPL-related interleukin gene polymorphisms. Meta-analysis was performed on 12 of the polymorphisms,...

BACKGROUND The association among hereditary thrombophilia, recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and obstetric complications is yet uncertain. The objective of the study was to assess the prognostic value of the factor V Leiden (FVL) and prothrombin (PT) mutations for the subsequent chance of live birth for women with RPL. METHODS Pregnancy outcome was recorded in a retrospective cohort of 363 women...
