OBJECTIVE We investigated the features of endometrial hyperplasia with concurrent endometrial cancer that had been diagnosed by endometrial sampling. Further, we attempted to identify an accurate differential diagnostic method. METHODS We retrospectively studied 125 patients who underwent a diagnostic endometrial biopsy or were diagnosed after the surgical treatment of other gynecological les...

BACKGROUND Endometrial cancers are the most common gynecologic cancers. Endometrial sampling is a preferred procedure for diagnosis of the endometrial pathology. It is performed routinely in many clinics prior to surgery in order to exclude an endometrial malignancy. We aimed to investigate the accuracy of endometrial sampling in the diagnosis of endometrial pathologies and which findings need ...

OBJECTIVES To explore the roles of Bcl-xl and Bcl-xs in the development and progression of endometrial carcinoma, and to analyze the correlation between Bcl-xl and Bcl-xs. METHODS RT-PCR and Western-blot assay were applied to detect the expressions of Bcl-xl and Bcl-xs in endometrial tissues of various histomorphologic types. RESULTS The Bcl-xl expression levels of simple and atypical hyper...

Background: Curettage is an act of scraping the granulation tissue on lateral gingival wall periodontal pocket. After curettage, a pack was applied to control bleeding and keep wound area clean. The addition iodine leaves as alternative because it contains flavonoids that can help healing process. This study aims determine effect adding 10% leaf extract gel curettage process.Method: A true expe...

the only available vaccine against tuberculosis is bcg which has been found to protect children against disseminated tuberculosis and tuberculous meningitis. bcg is one of the safest vaccines being used, and osteitis is a rare complication of it. during a period of eight years, we had eleven cases of osteitis occuring in infants following bcg vaccination. eight cases were female. defect in immu...

OBJECTIVE This study was undertaken to evaluate whether it was possible to abstain from performing an endometrial biopsy when endometrial thickness according to transvaginal ultrasonography was /=50 years who were re...

background and objectives: endometrial hyperplasia (eh) is an abnormal overgrowth of endometrium that may lead to endometrial cancer, especially when accompanied by atypia. the treatment of eh is challenging, and previous studies report conflicting results. metformin (dimethyl biguanide) is an anti-diabetic and insulin sensitizer agent, which is supposed to have antiproliferative and anticancer...

BACKGROUND The incidence and death rates of endometrial cancer are alarmingly increasing. The diagnosis and treatment of endometrial cancer is crucial to decreasing mortality. Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) belongs to the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette transporter family and plays an essential role in anion regulation and tissue homeostasis of various ...

The endometrium is a hormonally regulated organ that is non-adhesive to embryos throughout most of the menstrual cycle in humans. Endometrial receptivity refers to a hormone-limited period in which the endometrial tissue acquires a functional and transient ovarian steroid-dependent status allowing blastocyst adhesion. Functional genomic studies of human endometrium in natural cycles have demons...
