Perioperative Anesthetic and Hormonal Considerations in a Patient With Anti-glutamic Acid Decarboxylase Encephalitis: A Case Report.
Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) is vital for gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) synthesis. Auto-antibodies against GAD deplete GAD levels and subsequently GABA, resulting in a hyper-excitatory state. A 41-year-old woman with anti-GAD …
Unravelling the Intricate Link: Mast Cells and Estrogen-Induced Pain Sensitization in Endometriosis.
Endometriosis is a prevalent gynaecological disorder characterized by estrogen-dependent lesions. Pain-particularly dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, and dyspareunia-is the hallmark symptom of endometriosis. While pain mechanisms remain poorly understood, mast cells …
Cumulative live birth rates under three consecutive IVF/ICSI treatment cycles are reduced in women with endometriosis and/or adenomyosis diagnosed by ultrasonography.
Does endometriosis and/or adenomyosis, diagnosed using the International Deep Endometriosis Analysis (IDEA) group and the Morphological Uterus Sonographic Assessment (MUSA) group revised definitions, impact cumulative live birth rates (CLBR) after …
Beyond oocyte quantity: the paradoxical role of poor ovarian response in live birth outcomes among endometriosis patients undergoing IVF/ICSI-ET.
To evaluate the impact of poor ovarian response (POR) on live birth outcomes in endometriosis patients undergoing IVF/ICSI-ET, despite the expected association between reduced oocyte yield and poorer prognosis.
