background: c-reactive protein (crp) can be increased after hormonal stimulations. the changes of crp might affect the success of in-vitro fertilization (ivf). objective: the aim of this study was to determine the possible relationship between the serum crp level and outcome of controlled ovarian stimulation, and pregnancy rate in patients undergoing ivf or intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (ic...

abstract necrotizing fasciitis is a rare, life-threatening infection most commonly seen in patients with diabetes mellitus, intravenous drug abuse, and immunocompromised conditions. the extremities are the primary sites of involvement in as many as two thirds of the cases. in a significant proportion of patients, the extremities are involved as a result of trauma, needle puncture or extravasati...

Recruitment of primordial follicles is essential for female fertility; however, the exact mechanisms regulating this process are largely unknown. Earlier studies using anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH)-deficient mice suggested that AMH is involved in the regulation of primordial follicle recruitment. We tested this hypothesis in a neonatal ovary culture system, in which ovaries from 2-d-old C57Bl/6J...

objectives: the aim of this retrospective observational study was to identify local and clinical factors related to the need of surgical repair. patients and methods: in this retrospective study, 122 (0.06%) fpas treated among 21060 patients over a period of five years were assessed. patient characteristics and therapeutic procedures were analyzed through hospital records. results: there were 1...

These experiments were performed to test the perfusion of ovine as a model for human ovaries by cryoprotectants in vivo at high temperature when the permeability of capillaries is high and when blood is insensibly replaced by the solution of cryoprotectants. By our hypothetical supposition, ovaries could be saturated by cryoprotectants before their surgical removal. The objective was to examine...

We identify the puncture operator in c = 1 Liouville gravity as the discrete state with spin J = 1 2. The correlation functions involving this operator satisfy the recursion relation which is characteristic in topological gravity. We derive the recursion relation involving the puncture operator by the operator product expansion. Multiple point correlation functions are determined recursively fr...
