background: human leukocyte antigen-e (hla-e)is a non-classical major histocompatibility complex (mhc) class i antigens which expressed on extra villous cytotrophoblast, which interacts with nkg2a, is an inhibitory receptor on natural killer (nk) cells and leading to down regulation of immune response in the maternal-fetal interface and provides maternal immune tolerance of the fetus. objective...

background: different studies show that chromosomal balance translocation in the parents can cause recurrent spontaneous abortions. incidence of chromosomal translocation abnormalities in couples with repeated abortions is from 0% to 31%. objective: the purpose of this research was studying the presence or absence of chromosomal abnormalities and heteromorphism in couples with recurrent abortio...

background: exposure to extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields is increasingly common, but the potential influence on pregnant women has not been thoroughly investigated. methods: in this case-control study, 58 women who had an unexplained spontaneous abortion at < 14 weeks gestation and 58 matched pregnant women >14 weeks gestation were enrolled in 2012. the women completed the questio...

Background: An association between spontaneous abortions and shift work has been suggested, but present research results are conflicting. The aim of the study is to evaluate the relationship between spontaneous abortions among nurses, shift schedules, and nights worked. Methods: This is a longitudinal study where we identified 914 females from a cohort of nurses in Norway who had worked the sam...

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...
