OBJECTIVES To review the efficacy, safety, costs, and subsequent reproductive outcome of surgical and nonsurgical management of ectopic pregnancy (EP). DESIGN Pertinent studies were identified through computer Medline search. The rates of intrauterine pregnancy (IUP) and EP were calculated from the raw data in the original publications so that the denominator would be consistent. RESULT(S) ...

By retrieving records from Taiwan's National Health Insurance (NHI) system's database, the current study aimed to investigate the impacts of hysterosalpingography (HSG) to patients after ectopic pregnancy (EP) operations in Taiwan.In this retrospective cohort study, insurance claims data from 1997 to 2013, derived from a cohort of 1 million people randomly sampled to represent all NHI beneficia...

OBJECTIVE To assess the incidence of ectopic pregnancy (EP) in hospitals in Conakry, the capital of Guinea, West Africa. Data on EP incidence in developing countries are rare and often out of date, particularly in Africa. METHODS A retrospective study was carried out, examining all cases of EP registered in the medical files of two referral maternity units at the Donka and Ignace Deen univers...

In this data, non-pregnant women during the menstrual cycle, women with normal intrauterine pregnancy (IUP), and women with tubal ectopic pregnancy (EP) after informed consent were included. The serum levels of 17β-estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, beta-human chorionic gonadotropin, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-4, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), and interferon-γ (IFN-γ)...

cesarean scar pregnancy (csp) is a rare, but life-threatening type of ectopic pregnancy. an exact and early diagnosis of csp is very important for prognosis. the aim of the present study was to describe 4 women with csp and discuss their clinical presentations, diagnoses, and various management options along with the published literature. four women with a suspicion of csp or cervical pregnancy...

BACKGROUND The use of serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and progesterone to identify patients with ectopic pregnancy (EP) has been shown to have poor clinical utility. Pregnancy-associated circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have been proposed as potential biomarkers for the diagnosis of pregnancy-associated complications. This proof-of-concept study examined the diagnostic accuracy of variou...

BACKGROUND The quantity of cell-free fetal DNA in the plasma of pregnant women changes during pregnancy and seems to be different in normal and pathologic pregnancies. We investigated the possible diagnostic applications of the detection and measurement of cell-free fetal DNA by comparing quantities found in women with ectopic (EP) or intrauterine (IUP) pregnancies. METHODS We collected blood...
