OBJECTIVE Ovarian reserve tests are commonly used to predict ovarian response in infertile patients undergoing ovarian stimulation. Although serum markers such as basal follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) or random anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) level and ultrasonographic markers (antral follicle count, AFC) are good predictors, no single test has proven to be the best predictor. In this study, we...

Background/Aims Solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a subgroup of HCCs. We aimed to establish nomograms for predicting the survival of solitary HCC patients after hepatectomy. Methods A total of 538 solitary HCC patients were randomly classified into training and validation sets. A Cox model was used to identify predictors of overall survival (OS) in the training set. A nomogram was ge...

OBJECTIVE To present normal range of the pulsatility index and the smallest diameter in the ductus venosus in normal fetuses throughout gestation. MATERIAL AND METHOD This was a prospectively cross-sectional study. Three measurements were made for the ductus venosus diameter and the pulsatility index in each fetus during fetal quiescence. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 14.0 softw...

OBJECTIVE To compare the application time and the capacity of the nomograms to predict the success of Guy's Stone Score (GSS), S.T.O.N.E. Nephrolithometry (STONE) and Clinical Research Office of the Endourological Society nephrolithometric nomogram (CROES) of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), evaluating the most efficient one for clinical use. MATERIALS AND METHODS We studied 48 patients w...
