Objectives: This study asked the following questions: 1) Does HIV testing in pregnancy identify women who previously were not known to be HIV positive? 2) When in pregnancy are women identified as HIV infected? 3) Does HIV seroconversion occur during the prenatal care period? Methods: Medical records of 97 women from two primarily indigent care hospitals in Houston, TX who were found to be HIV ...
متن کاملDeleterious effects of estrogenic endocrine disruptors on marine organisms: Histological Observed Effects and Some Novel Useful Monitoring Bioassays
Aquatic environments receive significant levels of chemical contaminants generated by human activities. Among these pollutants, we noticed the xenobiotics known as reproductive toxicants and endocrine disruptors. The endocrine disruption in wildlife has been the subject of many reviews and workshops in recent years. Field observations of reproductively abnormal organisms and population declines...

THE profound changes in the serum lipids resulting from estrogen administration to men and women with coronary heart disease have been documented in several laboratories.1-6 But these presumably "favorable " alterations have been offset by undesirable estrogenic side-effects, especially in middle-aged men.3'4 Among many measures suggested to avoid the side-effects, including very low estrogen d...
متن کاملParabens Effects on Estrogenic Receptors of C13 Cell Line
Ovarian cancer is one of the major causes of death in women. Parabens are a class of chemicals widely used as preservatives in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products, they mimic estrogens, which are known to play a role in the development of different cancers in women. The Aim of this study was to investigate the proliferative effects of Methyl Paraben (MP) and Propyl Paraben (PP) on human ovaria...
متن کاملResearch Article: A rapid approach to assess estrogenic transcriptional activity of bisphenol A in the liver of goldfish
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a synthetic compound widely used in types of consumer goods and medical tools. It has been shown that BPA acts as an endocrine disruptor chemical casuing negative impact on reproductive functions. The present study used an in vitro approach to assess estrogenic transcriptional activity of BPA as a rapid and sensitive method. The cultured pieces of hepatic tissue of goldfish...
