To compare the efficacy of albumin and C3 complement as serum marker for the early diagnosis of endometriosis in women of reproductive age.Cross-sectional comparative study.Biochemistry Department, Islamic International Medical The effect of danazol in a dose of 600 mg a day was studied in 20 women with moderate or severe endometriosis. The clinical effect was found to be excellent and repeat laparoscopy after about 6 months treatment revealed a marked regression in all patients with only small residual foci of
OBJECTIVE
To measure autoantibodies that recognize oxidatively modified proteins in the sera of women with surgically proven endometriosis.
METHODS
Prospective study.
METHODS
Tertiary care academic medical center.
METHODS
Women undergoing surgery for endometriosis or tubal
BACKGROUND
Administration of superactive agonistic analog of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) has shown to induce a paradoxic and reversible suppression of gonadotropins, so that gonadal steroid concentrations are suppressed and hypoestrogenemia is induced. In order to compare the efficacy and
OBJECTIVE
Identifying the endometrial antigens inciting autoimmunity is important in setting up an antibody assay for a non-invasive diagnosis and clinical monitoring of endometriosis.
METHODS
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of endometrial extracts, Western blot analysis, passive
Several authors have documented signs of chronic inflammation in the pelvis of women with endometriosis. We investigated the possible involvement of interleukin 6 (IL6), an important regulator of inflammation and immunity, in minimal and mild endometriosis by measuring levels of IL6 and proteins
The aim of this study was to determine the influence of peritoneal fluid from patients with minimal stage or treated endometriosis on sperm motility parameters. Peritoneal fluid aspirated at diagnostic laparoscopy for unexplained infertility from women during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle
The cause and importance of endometriosis-associated subfertility are a subject of dispute in reproductive endocrinology. To further study this phenomenon, we have established a model to test the effect of peritoneal fluid (PF) from endometriosis patients on early reproductive events in vivo.
Incidence of endometriosis is very high in women in the reproductive age (around 10%). To date, a reliable non-invasive diagnostic test for early diagnosis of endometriosis is not available. In this article we describe the potential value as diagnostic markers for endometriosis of two proteins
Endometriosis is a very common disease, affecting 10% of women in the reproductive age. To date, a significant delay between onset of the symptoms and definitive diagnosis is caused by the lack of a reliable non-invasive diagnostic test. Recently, the potential value as diagnostic markers for
The migration of radionuclide through the genital tract was observed, comparing 20 patients with endometriosis and infertility with a control group of 23 infertile patients who had a normal pelvis. All patients had patent tubes at laparoscopy and chromopertubation, performed in both groups for the
OBJECTIVE
To investigate whether platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase may play a role in the pathophysiology of endometriosis.
METHODS
Peritoneal fluids were obtained at laparoscopy from eight fertile women without endometriosis and 12 women with mild endometriosis. Platelet-activating factor
The cumulus-fimbria interaction was investigated in vitro with endometriosis peritoneal fluid (PF). On the oviductal fimbria of the golden hamster, incubated with endometriosis and nonendometriosis PF and culture medium 199 contained 4% bovine serum albumin (control), was placed the mouse
A number of reports have suggested that the oxidative state of human albumin in serum and in some body fluids is associated with cell damage. However there are no reports on the redox state of human follicular fluid (FF) and its influence on oocyte viability. The aim of this study was to examine the
A 46-yr-old multiparous cachetic woman presented with severe hypoalbuminemia in the absence of liver disease, proteinuria, and/or protracted starvation. The clinical presentation and work-up was indicative of protein-losing enteropathy. She developed an acute partial small bowel obstruction, and a
