Polymorphisms of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS3) gene in preeclampsia: a candidate-gene association study
(2011)
Background: The endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene (NOS3) has been proposed as a candidate gene for preeclampsia. However, studies so far have produced conflicting results. This study examines the specific role of ...
Publication bias in reproductive medicine: from the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology annual meeting to publication
(2011)
Background: Treatment decisions should ideally be based on well-designed randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Here we determine the rate of full publication of RCTs presented at annual meetings of the European Society of ...
Syncytins expression in cultured trophoblast cells according to differentiation status
(2011)
Background: Data of syncytin 1 and 2 env gene expression in human placenta and participation in the syncytialisation phenomena has been reported. However, there are not many studies on simultaneous changes in expression ...
Soluble fms-Like Tyrosine Kinase-1 (sFlt-1) and Serum Placental Growth Factor (PlGF) as Biomarkers for Ectopic Pregnancy and Missed Abortion
(2011)
Context: Diagnosis of early pregnancy failure is hampered by the lack of reliable serological markers. Objective: We assessed whether a single serum measurement of placental growth factor (PlGF) and the soluble Flt-1 ...
Different patterns of p16 immunoreactivity in cervical biopsies: correlation to lesion grade and HPV detection, with a review of the literature
(2011)
p16 is one extensively studied marker in gynecological pathology. However, its routine application in the diagnosis of squamous intraepithelial lesions of the uterine cervix may present difficulties for the general ...
Inhibin secretion in women with the polycystic ovary syndrome before and after treatment with progesterone
(2011)
Objectives: It has been suggested that inhibin secretion is altered in women with the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, the contribution of a preceding luteal phase has not been taken into account. The aim of the ...
Effect of ghrelin and metoclopramide on prolactin secretion in normal women
(2011)
Background: Administration of ghrelin to women stimulates the secretion of PRL but the mechanism is not known. Aim: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of the dopamine receptor blocker, metoclopramide, on ...
The endocrine effects of multiple folliculogenesis
(2011)
Induction of multiple follicular development is a common practice in IVF programmes. Nevertheless, such an approach is not without implications. Apart from the high multiple pregnancy rate, marked changes in the secretion ...
Evidence for non genomic action of 17 beta estradiol on transepithelial resistance of human fetal membranes
(2011)
Background: The role of hormones in the transport mechanisms of human fetal membranes in pregnancy is unclear. Estrogens are essential hormones in pregnancy and they play an important role in the ion transport via membranes. ...
