Proteomics characterization of human uterine samples during reproductive ageing

Nowadays, postponing motherhood has become more common in modern societies. Such decision rises major social and health concerns, as advanced maternal age associates with low fertility, pregnancy complications and a greater need for assisted reproductive techniques. Female reproductive ageing is associated with alterations that are particularly evident in the ovaries. Yet, given the pivotal contribution of the ...

Addressing the role of maternal age on the metabolic profile of the placenta

After the age of 35, during pregnancy, there is an increased risk of impaired placentation. Changes in uterine redox balance seem to play a role in deficient placentation. We hypothesized that this local redox dysregulation has a negative impact on the placenta metabolic profile. Thus, we aimed to study the placenta metabolic profile during reproductive aging and the effect of antioxidant supplementation. Place...

Unveiling uterine senescence and its potential role in age-related female ferti...

Nowadays, infertility is a major topic present in public health discussions due to its increased prevalence worldwide. With time, female infertility rates have increased, mainly, because women are delaying childbearing to their late 30s/early 40s, leading to fertility decline, complications during gestation, and a higher demand for assisted reproductive techniques. Uterine alterations have been pointed out as a...

Bloqueio do nervo pudendo e simulação obstétrica

A primeira descrição do bloqueio do nervo pudendo foi em 1908. Esta é uma técnica indicada para analgesia nas fases mais adiantadas do trabalho de parto. O uso de técnicas analgésicas eficazes desde os estadios mais precoces do trabalho de parto, como as técnicas do neuro-eixo, deixaram o bloqueio do pudendo para segundo plano. No entanto, é de fácil execução, habitualmente pelo obstetra, e com baixo risco de h...

Successful Pregnancies Outcomes with the Use of In Vitro Fertilization after Es...

Introduction: Since two decades we witnessed the publication of several studies devoted to the study of the influence of the presence of hydrosalpinx on the results of embryo transfer techniques. The aim of this study is to present the results of treatment and pregnancy outcomes in women with a history of infertility associated with unilateral hydrosalpinx, visible on vaginal ultrasound, which were subjected to...

Buschke-Lowenstein Tumor

Introduction: Giant condyloma acuminatum belongs to a spectrum of diseases with malignant degeneration. Clinically, it presents asexophytic, fungating masses, sometimes with a cauliflower-like morphology. Case presentation: We present a case of a 32-year-old female patient with a 180x95x80mm exophytic mass of the vulvar regionsuggestive of Buschke-Lowenstein Tumour. Treatment included wide local excision with e...
