INTRODUCTION: Since the War in Afghanistan began in 2001, service members have faced significant health effects related to service during war, with female-designated service members facing unique challenges. Numerous high-quality review articles have been published on the health and care of female-designated service members and veterans. Given the increasing volume of literature, we completed an overview of reviews on the health and health care of female-designated military populations...

BACKGROUND: Trial of labor after cesarean after 2 cesarean deliveries is linked to a lower success rate of vaginal delivery and higher rates of adverse obstetrical outcomes than trial of labor after cesarean after 1 previous cesarean delivery. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the factors associated with failed trial of labor after cesarean among women with 2 previous cesarean deliveries. STUDY DESIGN: This was a multicenter retrospective cohort study, which included all women with singleton pregnancies attempting trial of labor after cesarean after 2 previous cesarean deliveries between 2003 and 2021...

INTRODUCTION: To determine a cut-off value for systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) (neutrophil × platelet/lymphocyte) in the prediction of fetal growth restriction (FGR). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This case-control study was conducted retrospectively at the Obstetrics-Gynecology and Perinatology Clinics of Etlik Zubeyde Hanim Women's Health Education and Training Hospital. Singleton pregnant women with late-onset FGR who were followed up in outpatient clinics or hospitalized and whose pregnancy resulted at our hospital were included in the study group (group I)...

EVIDENCE ACQUISITION: We used Web of Science to identify all relevant publications in the field of GYNONC by Canadian. We analyzed bibliometric data obtained from the iCite database. Publications were evaluated for specific characteristics including the province of all co-authors...

BACKGROUND: Alongside health consequences, cesarean delivery (CD) has been associated with increased healthcare resource utilization (HCRU). A CD should be performed in case of placenta previa; in turn, the most appropriate mode of birth in women with a low-lying placenta (LLP) is still controversial. Since no previous data are available on the topic, the aim of this study was to evaluate the HCRU and economic impact on the Italian HC system of vaginal birth (VB) and CD in women with a LLP...

BACKGROUND: We investigated the potential association between Marfan Syndrome (MFS) and adverse obstetric outcomes using the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database. METHODS: We utilized the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) system to identify relevant codes and extracted data from the NIS database covering the period 2016-2019. Descriptive statistics and χ2 tests were employed to summarize and compare baseline characteristics. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses (adjusted for age, race, hospital region, smoking status, and alcohol misuse) were conducted to evaluate association between MFS and adverse obstetric outcomes...

Hayden A Homer
Females are born with a finite and non-renewable reservoir of oocytes, which therefore decline both in number and quality with advancing age. A striking characteristic of oocyte quality is that "ageing" effects manifest whilst women are in their thirties and are therefore still chronologically and physically young. Furthermore, this decline is unrelenting and not modifiable to any great extent by lifestyle or diet. Since oocyte quality is rate-limiting for pregnancy success, as the proportion of good-quality oocytes progressively deteriorate, the chance of successful pregnancy during each 6-12-month period also decreases, becoming exponential after 37 years...

BACKGROUND: Pelvic exenteration (PE) is an extensive surgery that is indicated in cases of recurrent advanced gynecological cancer with curative and sometimes palliative intent. The procedure is associated with both high morbidity and mortality and as such is considered a highly specialist procedure. The aim of the study was to analyze surgical outcomes in women who underwent PE for advanced gynecological malignancy in a tertiary cancer referral center over 11 years. METHODS: This is an observational retrospective single-center study...

We explored the experiences of women with fibromyalgia during the COVID-19 pandemic from a qualitative approach by interviewing eighteen women. We identified seven main themes after performing a thematic analysis: pain description, pain triggers, impact, coping strategies, treatment for pain, pain onset and general situation. In general, pain worsened during the pandemic, and activity restrictions and changes in social interactions were particularly related with that. Pain negatively impacted different life domains: mental health, physical health, cognitive status, social activities and daily activities...

BACKGROUND: Approximately 85% of women experience an obstetric tear at delivery and up to 25% subsequently experience wound dehiscence and/or infection. Previous publications suggest that intravenous antibiotics administrated during delivery reduces this risk. We do not know if oral antibiotics given after delivery can reduce the risk of wound dehiscence or infection. Our aim is to investigate whether three doses of oral antibiotics (amoxicillin 500 mg/clavulanic acid 125 mg) given after delivery can reduce the risk of wound dehiscence and infection in patients with a second-degree obstetric tear or episiotomy...

INTRODUCTION: Serum levels of procalcitonin and C-reactive protein (CRP) have been used to predict anastomotic leakage after colorectal surgery, but information is scarce in advanced ovarian cancer (AOC) surgery with bowel resection. This study aimed to assess the predictive value of procalcitonin and CRP in detecting anastomotic leakage after AOC surgery with bowel resection. The study also aimed to determine the optimal postoperative reference values and the best day for evaluating these markers...

A rapid improvement event (RIE) is a standard operational excellence technique that uses team-based problem solving to improve processes. In this study, a RIE was undertaken to improve progesterone prescribing rates for those with a history of miscarriage experiencing vaginal bleeding in early pregnancy. This was on the basis of a recent change in guidelines regarding prescribing in these instances. NICE guidelines changed in November 2021 after Cochrane meta-analysis and the PRISM (Progesterone in Spontaneous Miscarriage) randomised control trial demonstrated a higher incidence of live births in those prescribed vaginal micronised progesterone for threatened miscarriage, when compared with those not prescribed it...

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to analyse the impact of embedment of side arms of the levonorgestrel 52 mg intrauterine device (LNG-IUD) in the myometrium (assessed by three-dimensional transvaginal ultrasound (3D-TVUS)) on uterine bleeding and pain. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed a prospective cohort study in a large Dutch teaching hospital between February 2015 and December 2016. Participants over 18 years of age who selected a LNG-IUD for contraception or because of heavy menstrual bleeding were eligible for inclusion...

The efficacy of perioperative dexmedetomidine (DEX) infusion as a precaution against postpartum depression (PPD) in women undergoing cesarean section has not been substantiated systematically. A literature search for RCTs on DEX against PPD was retrieved in the following databases from inception to January 3, 2024: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, CBM, VIP, etc. A total of 13 RCTs with 1711 participants were included.

Cervical cancer continues to pose a challenge to the health of Thai women, as the second most common cancer after breast cancer. Since high risk human papillomavirus (HPV) type is the main cause for cervical cancer, cervical cancer screening and HPV vaccination is necessary to reduce the incidence of this disease. At present, the World Health Organization hopes to reduce the incidence of cervical cancer to 4 or less cases per 100,000 women per year using 90-70-90% intervention by 2030. The first intervention involves vaccinating 90% of women aged 15 years with the HPV vaccine...
