ectopic decidualization with gross involvement of the peritoneum is one of the rare findings in pregnant women particularly when ectopic decidualization disseminated as an asymptomatic intra-abdominal nodule. we present here a case of an ectopic decidualization in a 33-year-old pregnant woman with symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome during pregnancy.

we report the delayed eruption and infraocclusion of a mandibular second primary molar with ectopic location of the permanent successor. this was a rare case where the second premolar was located to the distal side of the impacted mandibular second primary molar. early intervention is recommended to manage orofacial disfigurement and prevent consequent problems.

objective: to evaluate the plasma creatine phosphokinase (cpk) level after injection of methotrexate (mtx) as a predictor of treatment success in ectopic pregnancy (ep). materials and methods: one hundred women treated with single dose of methotrexate for ectopic pregnancy were evaluated in a prospective study, for cpk and ß-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (ß-hcg) levels. they received ...

Sphagesaurus montealtensis is a sphagesaurid whose original description was based on a comparison with Sphagesaurus huenei, the only species of the clade described to that date. Better preparation of the holotype and the discovery of a new specimen have allowed the review of some characteristics and the identification of several synapomorphies of S. montealtensis with the genus Caipirasuchus: p...

background: the incidence of ectopic pregnancy varies between 1.5-2% of all pregnancies. bilateral tubal ectopic pregnancy is rare. it may occur in 1 per 200 000 pregnancies. case: this is a case report of 25 year-old woman who underwent intra uterine insemination (iui), because of tubal factor infertility (unilateral). on the 30pthp day after the iui she complained from pelvic pain and vaginal...

The highly enantioselective synthesis of densely functionalized 2,3-indoline-cyclobutanes by means of chiral gold catalysis is presented. Intermolecular formal [2+2]-cycloaddition reactions between substituted indoles and allenamides enabled direct access to methylenecyclobutane-fused indolines, featuring two consecutive quaternary stereogenic centers with excellent stereochemical control (dr >...

Background: Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease in which oxidative stress is a potential factor. Caffeine and caffeic acid are present in various foods and beverages with anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-carcinogenic properties. In this study, we aimed to investigate the ameliorative effects of caffeine, caffeic acid, and caffeine+caffeic acid treatments on oxidative stress...

Background MIF via its receptor, CD74, initiates a signaling cascade that leads to proliferation and survival of cells. Also, MIF binding to CD74 activates p38 signaling pathways that lead to positive effect on the expression of COX-2. The aim of this study was to evaluate the gene expression profile of MIF, CD74 and COX-2 in normal, ectopic and eutopic endometrium during menstrual cycle. The e...

Landmark-based high-dimensional diffeomorphic maps of the hippocampus (although accurate) is highly-dependent on rater's anatomic knowledge of the hippocampus in the magnetic resonance images. It is therefore vulnerable to rater drift and errors if substantial amount of effort is not spent on quality assurance, training, and re-training. A fully-automated, FreeSurfer-initialized large-deformati...
