Abstract Study question To classify patients with dense intrauterine adhesions based on clinical characteristics as well as, ultrasound, hysterosalpingography (HSG) and hysteroscopy findings into different prognostic groups. Summary answer We have defined a model to which could easily be implemented in patient counseling management. What is known already Intrauterine are major cause of hypo-ame...

Forty crossbred boars were equally divided into eight groups at birth. Four groups were immunized (200 micrograms/boar) at 12 wk of age against either luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) conjugated to human serum globulin (LHRH-hSG) in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA), LHRH-hSG in muramyldipeptide adjuvant (PEP), procine luteinizing hormone (LH) conjugated to hSG (pLH-hSG) in CFA or ov...

Background & Aims: It is believed that uterine septum, because of its effect on infertility and recurrent abortion is very important and pregnancy outcome is obviously improved by hysteroscopic metroplasty (HM). In this study, the probable relationship of uterine septum dimensions (length and width) with infertility and recurrent abortion has been investigated. Methods: This clinical trial was ...

Female genital tuberculosis remains as a major cause of tubal obstruction leading to infertility, especially in developing countries. The global prevalence of genital tuberculosis has increased during the past two decades due to increasing acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Genital tuberculosis (TB) is commonly asymptomatic and it is diagnosed during infertility investigations. Despite of rece...

BACKGROUND Tubal and uterine cavity diseases commonly compromise female fertility. At the present time, hysteroscopy, laparoscopy with chromopertubation and RX-Hysterosalpingography (RX-HSG) are widely accepted screening procedures enabling the effective assessment of both tubal patency and uterine cavity. Nevertheless, consistent evidence supports the reliability of Hysterosalpingocontrast son...

BACKGROUND Health systems guidance (HSG) are systematically developed statements that assist with decisions about options for addressing health systems challenges, including related changes in health systems arrangements. However, the development, appraisal, and reporting of HSG poses unique conceptual and methodological challenges related to the varied types of evidence that are relevant, the ...

The state of the art of the infertility workup, strange as it may appear, has never been accurately defined. A recent survey, that was designed to determine how reproductive endocrinologists practice on a daily basis, demonstrated that the five basic tests that were regarded as the cornerstone of the infertility evaluation were: semen analysis, assessment of ovulation, hysterosalpingogram (HSG)...

Hyperplasia suppressor gene (HSG) is a novel gene that markedly suppresses the mitogenetic stimuli or injury mediated by vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. Herein we provide experimental evidence to show that HSG can also play a key role in tumor proliferation. Down-regulation of HSG protein in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues compared to adjacent tissues. Overexpression of HSG suppress...
