Pretreatment with Dienogest in women with Endometriosis undergoing IVF after a previous failed cycle
Endometriosis
is a benign chronic inflammatory estrogen-dependent disease and a well-known cause
of infertility. Endometriosis may have a direct harmful effect on fertility not
only due to the presence of adhesions and anatomic distortions, but also
because of the intrinsic negative impact on oocyte development, embryogenesis,
or implantat...
Acute
upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB) is a common medical emergency. In
Western countries, its incidence was estimated to be over 100 cases per 100 000
adults per year. Fortunately, the mortality rates of AUGIB have decreased over
the past few decades, largely attributable to improvements in endoscopic and
pharmacological therapies...
Pathogenesis
of adenomyosis involves sex steroid hormone abnormalities, inflammation, fibrosis
and neuro angiogenesis, even though the proposed mechanisms are not fully understood.
Nowadays, adenomyosis may also be diagnosed by non-invasive techniques, because
of imaging advancements.
Adenomyosis
often coexists with other gynecologic...

Gastroesophageal reflux disease
(GERD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) are two pathological conditions
often strictly related, even if a clear relationship of causality has not been
demonstrated.
GERD is a frequent comorbidity in
IPF patients, as demonstrated using combined multichannel intraluminal
impedance-pH, despite being...
