Secondary amenorrhea is characterized by the cessation of established menstruation for six months or longer, or alternatively, previously regular menses for three months or previously irregular menses for six months. The incidence of secondary amenorrhea is estimated to be 3% to 4% among women in the general population. \u0000Aim: This study aims to evaluate the etiology, diagnostic approaches, and management strategies for secondary amenorrhea among patients presenting to the gynecology outpatient department at MKCG Medical College, Berhampur, Odisha, India. \u0000Methods: A total of 25 patients diagnosed with secondary amenorrhea were included in this study. A comprehensive evaluation was conducted, including detailed medical history, physical examination, laboratory investigations (hormonal profile, thyroid function tests, prolactin levels), and imaging studies (ultrasound, MRI). Management strategies were individualized based on the etiology and included medical, surgical, and lifestyle interventions. \u0000Results: The study identified various etiologies for secondary amenorrhea, including hormonal imbalances, structural abnormalities, and systemic conditions. The individualized management plans led to successful outcomes in most cases, with resumption of menstruation and improvement in symptoms. Specific cases highlighted include prolactinoma, PCOS, premature ovarian insufficiency, and Asherman’s syndrome, each requiring distinct diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. \u0000Conclusion: Secondary amenorrhea presents with diverse etiologies, necessitating a thorough and multidisciplinary approach for diagnosis and management. Early and accurate diagnosis, along with tailored interventions, are crucial for effective treatment and improved patient outcomes. \u0000Recommendations: \u0000Implementation of standardized protocols for the evaluation of secondary amenorrhea in clinical practice. Encourage multidisciplinary collaboration for the management of complex cases. Promote patient education regarding the potential causes and treatments for secondary amenorrhea. Conduct further research to explore long-term outcomes of various management strategies.Enhance awareness among healthcare providers about the importance of early intervention. \u0000Keywords: Secondary Amenorrhea, Hormonal Imbalance, PCOS, Premature Ovarian Insufficiency, Tertiary Care","PeriodicalId":14139,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Medical and Biomedical Studies","volume":"4 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141809291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Early-onset stroke, occurring in individuals under 50 years, often involves non-traditional risk factors, including autoimmune disorders. Elevated thyroid autoantibodies, such as thyroid peroxidase (TPO) and thyroglobulin (TG) antibodies, have been implicated in vascular abnormalities. In patients with early-onset stroke, the study aims to investigate into the relationship between increased thyroid autoantibodies and intracranial stenosis. \u0000Methods: A retrospective cohort study included 180 patients diagnosed with early-onset stroke. Data were collected from medical records, focusing on thyroid function tests, thyroid autoantibody levels, and imaging results for intracranial stenosis. Multivariate logistic regression, t-tests, and chi-square tests were used in the statistical analysis to determine whether higher thyroid autoantibodies independently caused intracranial stenosis. \u0000Results: Intracranial stenosis was present in 40% of the patients. Elevated TPO antibodies were found in 62.5% of patients with intracranial stenosis compared to 25.0% without (p<0.001). Elevated TG antibodies were present in 54.2% of patients with intracranial stenosis compared to 25.0% without (p<0.001). Univariate analysis showed that elevated TPO antibodies (OR=4.75) and elevated TG antibodies (OR=3.44) were significantly associated with intracranial stenosis. Multivariate logistic regression confirmed these associations, with adjusted odds ratios of 4.23 for TPO and 3.16 for TG antibodies. \u0000Conclusion: Elevated thyroid autoantibodies are significantly related with an elevated risk of intracranial stenosis in early-onset stroke patients. This suggests that thyroid autoimmunity plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of intracranial vascular abnormalities. \u0000Recommendations: Routine screening for thyroid autoantibodies in young stroke patients is recommended to identify those at higher risk for intracranial stenosis. Further research is needed to explore the mechanisms linking thyroid autoimmunity to vascular abnormalities and to develop targeted therapeutic strategies. \u0000Keywords: Thyroid Autoantibodies, Intracranial Stenosis, Early-Onset Stroke, Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies, Thyroglobulin Antibodies","PeriodicalId":14139,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Medical and Biomedical Studies","volume":"122 28","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141657059","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Predicting the course of a pregnancy and choosing the best management techniques are critical to providing the best possible care for patients. The purpose of this investigation's prospective observational design was to learn more about the predictive power of ultrasound and how it may affect the medical management of upcoming abortions. \u0000Method: For the study, 200 first trimester pregnant women who showed indicators of an imminent abortion were gathered between X and Y. We looked at the fetus's heart, the size of the cervical canal, and a few other parts of the gestational sac using ultrasonography. Furthermore, records pertaining to the existence of extra data, like subchorionic hematoma, were found. Numerous exams were conducted to monitor the pregnancy's development. \u0000Results: Of the research's participants, 35% miscarried for unidentified reasons, and 65% were able to bring their pregnancies to term. The pregnancy's outcome could be accurately predicted based on the ultrasonography results. More specifically, there was a significant correlation between the development of a visible gestational sac and the presence of fetal heart activity and a higher chance of a successful pregnancy outcome. This was a strong relationship. On the other hand, women who had a subchorionic hematoma or a shorter cervical length were found to have a significantly higher risk of miscarriage. These findings show the value of ultrasonography as a technique for forecasting the course of pregnancies that are at risk of ending because of difficulties connected to the threat of abortion. \u0000Conclusion: Investigation's prospective observational design shows how ultrasound can be used to evaluate the advancement of pregnancy to determine cases where an abortion is likely to occur soon. Clinical decision-making based on ultrasound findings can improve patient management plans, patient counseling, and care for expectant patients. If prompt intervention using ultrasonographic signs improves the results of pregnancy at high risk, more research is needed to make that determination. \u0000Keywords: Ultrasonography, Threatened Abortion, Subchorionic Hematoma, and Ultrasound Markers","PeriodicalId":14139,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Medical and Biomedical Studies","volume":"142 35","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141281108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
