Objective We sought to determine the frequency of laboratory studies after female pelvic reconstructive surgery and the rate of intervention based on the results of these laboratory values at a…
Objective Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) is an essential enzyme in the base excision repair pathway, which plays an important role in repairing DNA damage caused by oxidation and alkylation. However,…
Objective The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the combined oral medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA)/levonorgestrel-intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) treatment in young women with early-stage endometrial cancer who wish…
Objective In vitro fertilization (IVF) is considered a generally safe procedure, although associated with a higher incidence of preterm birth. The literature is inconsistent about the psychological impact of IVF, and…
Objective Synthetic glucocorticoids (sGCs) are administered to women threatening preterm labor. We have shown multigenerational endocrine and metabolic effects of fetal sGC exposure. We hypothesized that sGC exposure would alter…
Objective To analyze the effects of preconception maternal height and weight on the risk of preterm singleton and twin births resulting from in vitro fertilization (IVF). Study Design We performed a…
Objective Both oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress) are causal events in diabetic embryopathy. We tested whether oxidative stress causes ER stress. Study Design Wild-type (WT) and superoxide…
Objective Interleukin-1 is accepted as one of the major cytokines; it is involved in inflammatory processes and systemic fetal inflammatory response that is triggered by maternal lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injection. Because…
Objective Lipoproteins are associated with atherogenic and inflammatory processes, and these processes may be related to adverse pregnancy outcomes. We therefore examined whether variations in lipoprotein particle size and concentration…
Objective The objective of the study was to determine whether an individualized growth standard (IS) improves the identification of preterm small-for-gestational-age (SGA) neonates at risk of developing moderate/severe cerebral palsy…
