GnRH agonist and antagonist protocols for stage I-II endometriosis and endometrioma in in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2007)
Objective: To investigate the outcomes of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles after controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) with GnRH antagonist or GnRH agonist (GnRH-a) in mild-to-moderate endometriosis and ...
Comparative effects of atorvastatin and simvastatin on the plasma total homocysteine levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a prospective randomized study
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2009)
Objective: To test the hypothesis that statins improve hyperhomocysteinemia in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Design: A prospective randomized study. Setting: University Hospital. Patient(s): Fifty-two women ...
Advanced oxidation protein products are increased in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: relationship with traditional and nontraditional cardiovascular risk factors in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2009)
Objective: To determine whether or not plasma advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) are associated with known cardiovascular risk factors or carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) in patients with polycystic ovary ...
Obesity and insulin resistance associated with lower plasma vitamin B-12 in PCOS
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2009)
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) shares some or most components of metabolic cardiovascular syndrome, manifested by abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia and at hero sclerosis. It has been previously ...
Testosterone and andropause: the effect of testosterone therapy
(Ortadogu Ad Pres & Publ Co, 2008)
There is a progressive reduction in male hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis function: testosterone levels decline through both central (pituitary) and peripheral (testicular) mechanisms, and there is a loss of the ...

(Elsevier Science Inc, 2008)
Objective: To highlight the efficiency of intrauterine device (IUD) guidance during hysteroscopic adhesiolysis for severe intrauterine adhesions. Design: A prospective, randomized trial. Setting: Private tertiary and ...
Plasma interleukin-18 levels are increased in the polycystic ovary syndrome: relationship of carotid intima-media wall thickness and cardiovascular risk factors
(2009)
Objective: To determine serum interleukin (IL)-18 levels and to find out whether IL-18 is associated with carotidintima-media wall thickness (IMT) and various cardiovascular risk factors in women with polycystic ovary ...
Homocysteine concentrations in follicular fluid are associated with poor oocyte and embryo qualities in polycystic ovary syndrome patients undergoing assisted reproduction
(2009)
background: A poor quality of oocytes and embryos and a low fertilization rate have been found in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
patients. An inverse association between follicular fluid homocysteine (Hcy) levels and ...
Follicular-fluid anti-mullerian hormone concentrations are predictive of assisted reproduction outcome in PCOS patients
(2009)
Serum anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) concentrations constitute a sensitive marker for ovarian ageing. In addition,
concentrations of AMH in the follicular fluid constitute a useful marker of embryo implantation in assisted ...
