introduction: recurrent abortion (ra) may be a consequence of aberrant expression of immunological factors during pregnancy. although the relative importance of immunological factors in human reproduction remains controversial, substantial evidence suggests that autoantibodies contribute to reproductive failure. production of such antibodies is under the control of cytokines; and leptin, beside...

one of the major causes of spontaneous abortion before the fourth month of pregnancy is chromosomal abnormalities. we report an unusual case of a familial balanced chromosomal translocation in a consanguineous couple who experienced 4 spontaneous abortions. chromosomal studies were performed on the basis of g-banding technique at high resolution and revealed 46, xx, t (16 6) (p12 q26) and 46, x...

Background: Spontaneous abortion (SAb) is the most common complication of early pregnancy. Numerous risk factors are associated with an increased risk of pregnancy loss such as: Maternally age, previous spontaneous abortion, prolonged ovulation to implantation, Gravidity, Interval Prolonged time to pregnancy, Balanced chromosomal translocations and Genetic disorders. The aim of this study was t...

Background/objective: Studies of the decidual leukocyte populations in women suffering from spontaneous early pregnancy loss may provide insight into immunpathological aspects and even cast light on the etiology of recurrent spontaneous abortion.Methods: In order to clarify the immunological role of endometrial leukocytes in repetitive abortion of unknown etiology, a comparative analysis of phe...

the east mediterranean region suffers from high levels of air pollution which has a negative impact on pregnancy outcomes. this work systematically reviews the epidemiological evidence on maternal exposure to air pollution and adverse pregnancy outcomes in the region. relevant papers and reports published between 2000 and 2014 were searched. combinations of search terms including countries, exp...

Background: Varicocele is commonly existed among infertile men and causes testis damage. Disorder of spermatogenesis was observed in varicocele individuals and leads to low quality sperm parameters and chromatin damage. Chromatin damage plays a critical role in pregnancy outcomes through in vitro or in vivo fertilization. Varicocelectomy considered as standard treatment of clinical varicocele. ...
