To determine local features of lipoperoxidation processes, antioxidant defense, state of matrix metalloproteinases in chronic endometritis. \u0000Materials and methods. Eighty women aged 29.33±6.71 (min-max [24–36]) with histologically and immunohistochemically confirmed chronic endometritis and a history of reproductive losses were examined (group 1). The control group consisted of 30 patients without chronic endometritis confirmed by the results of a histochemical study and no history of reproductive losses, suffering from infertility of tubal-peritoneal origin at the age of 30.11±6.9 years (min-max [24–37]; group 2). All 130 patients underwent transvaginal echography of the pelvic organs, and histological and immunohistochemical examination of endometrial samples was performed. The activity of lipid peroxidation factors was analyzed: primary, secondary and final products of lipid peroxidation in heptane and isopropanolol fractions of uterine cavity aspirate, enzymes of the antioxidant system: superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, deoxyribonuclease I (DNase), by spectrophotometric method, remodeling factors – matrix metalloproteinases MMP-2, -9 by flow fluorimetry. \u0000Results. In patients of group 1, according to transvaginal echography of the pelvic organs, M-echo was 6.29±1.22 mm, in group 2 – 9.10±1.15 mm. In chronic endometritis, disruption of pro-oxidant and activity of antioxidant factors in the endometrium in women with chronic endometritis and a history of reproductive losses. In the heptane fraction of the phenolic extract, the concentration of primary products of lipid peroxidation (diene conjugates) was 12.98% higher than in the control, the content of secondary products of lipid peroxidation (ketodienes) was higher by 15.45%, conjugated trienes by 18.67% higher than the values in the control group, which indicates increased lipid peroxidation of endometrial cell membranes during CE. In the isopropanol phase, the products of lipid peroxidation of phospholipid acyl residues are detected. In the isopropanol fraction of the lipid extract, the amount of diene conjugates was higher, ketodienes by 24.32% and conjugated trienes by 26.14%. An increase in the activity of the enzymes superoxide dismutase by 23.98%, catalase by 14.34%, glutathione peroxidase by 12.39%, and DNase by 2.9 times was recorded compared to the indicators of group 2. \u0000Conclusion. Chronic endometritis is accompanied by changes in the system of pro-oxidant and antioxidant factors, the content of tissue remodeling products. The pathogenetic changes underlying oxidative stress in the endometrium may be increased leukocyte infiltration, imbalance of primary, secondary and end products of lipid peroxidation, enzymes superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, deoxyribonuclease I (DNase), expression of matrix metalloproteinases-2, -9.","PeriodicalId":36505,"journal":{"name":"Gynecology","volume":" 49","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141365411","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}

Accurate calculation of circulating blood volume (CBV) and personalized estimation of the extent of blood loss (EBL) play vital roles in the early diagnosis of PPH. Visual assessment of BL in childbirth is an available diagnostic method, but it has a high error rate compared to the gravimetric method. A dynamic assessment of the shock index (SI) as an indicator that reflects hemodynamic disorders early enough can be used as an additional diagnostic method for PPH and a test that allows predicting the need for transfusion of blood products. \u0000Aim. To review current literature on the assessment of BL in childbirth and the diagnosis of PPH. \u0000Materials and methods. The search for publications by Russian and foreign authors was carried out in the information electronic databases PubMed, PubMed Central, Scopus, MEDLINE, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, and eLibrary from 2016 to January 2024 using the keywords \"obstetric blood loss,\" \"PPH,\" and \"SI.\" \u0000Results. When assessing the CBV, its correlation with the body mass index was revealed. Subjective methods for the PPH assessment have a large margin of error, which does not depend on the experience and seniority of the healthcare provider. The gravimetric method is more accurate, but it can underestimate the clinical situation when physiological blood loss is exceeded. Dynamic assessment of SI is an early marker of hemodynamic disorders and makes it possible to identify patients with a high risk of adverse outcomes more reliably than other parameters. \u0000Conclusion. In order to provide timely and adequate emergency medical care for excessive obstetric blood loss, a personalized approach should be used to calculate the EBL, taking into account the woman's body mass index, as well as a systematic assessment of the BL, including at least the extent of blood loss and monitoring of the SI.","PeriodicalId":36505,"journal":{"name":"Gynecology","volume":" 1285","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141363622","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}

Colpoptosis combined with stress urinary incontinence is one of the most common conditions in postmenopausal women. Menopause is also associated with the risk of genitourinary syndrome due to estrogen deficiency. Despite the variety of options for surgical correction of genital prolapse and urinary incontinence, there is no universal technique. The use of vaginal approach in pelvic floor surgery is associated with several controversies regarding the rates of recurrence and mesh-associated complications. Studies of the state of the endothelium in menopause have demonstrated a close relationship between age-related features and the frequency of adverse clinical outcomes, which requires an optimal intervention not only on the hormonal status but also on the microcirculatory system. \u0000Aim. To improve the principles of complex treatment of pelvic organ prolapse and genitourinary syndrome in postmenopausal patients. \u0000Materials and methods. The study included 48 postmenopausal patients with genital prolapse of stage II and above according to the POP-Q classification. All patients received continuous menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) with a combined estrogen-progestogen agent. The patients in group 1 (n=24) received MHT according to clinical guidelines for managing patients with genitourinary syndrome. The patients in group 2 (n=24), in addition to MHT, received sulodexide containing glucurono-2-amino-2-deoxyglucoglucan sulfate before the intended surgical treatment and for 30 days after surgery. Correction of colpocystocele, proctocele and stress urinary incontinence was performed using anterior and posterior colporrhaphy, perineoplasty, and urethral sling placement in case of stress urinary incontinence. \u0000Results. Six months after surgical treatment, signs of genital prolapse recurrence were detected in 3 patients (12.5%) in group 1, and 1 patient (4.2%) showed signs of mesh-associated complications (implant extrusion) after urethral sling placement. In group 2, only 4.2% of patients (n=1) showed signs of recurrence of stage II cystocele. All patients who underwent urethral sling surgery reported improved urinary incontinence (n=10). During complex therapy, 3 months after surgery, a more significant improvement of endothelial dysfunction markers was noted in group 2 patients (homocysteine level in group 1 after treatment was 12.27±0.34, in group 2 – 8.34±0.24). \u0000Conclusions. Combination therapy of genitourinary syndrome and genital prolapse using MHT, endotheliotropic drugs and vaginal surgical approach in postmenopausal patients contributes to effective and safe treatment associated with minimal risk of complications and recurrence rate. Endothelial dysfunction correction is an essential step in planning surgical intervention in menopausal patients, which contributes to improving tissue repair in the postoperative period.","PeriodicalId":36505,"journal":{"name":"Gynecology","volume":" 14","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140997388","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}

To assess the relationship of polymorphic gene variants associated with the level of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) according to genome-wide association studies (GWAS) with the risk of stage I–II and stage III-IV breast cancer. \u0000Materials and methods. A comparative genetic analysis was carried out on samples of patients with breast cancer: 254 patients with stages I–II and 91 with stages III–IV, and 1140 females of the control group. The paper considers 4 single nucleotide substitutions associated with the level of circulating SHBG according to GWAS: g.107546375AG PRMT6 (rs17496332), g.27519736TC GCKR (rs780093), g.48419260TC PPP1R21 (rs10454142), g.98364050TA BAIAP2L1 (rs3779195). \u0000Results. Differences in the involvement of polymorphic variants of SHBG candidate genes in the development of stages I–II and III–IV breast cancer were revealed. The rs10454142 TC polymorphic variant in the PPP1R21 gene is associated with the risk of stage I–II breast cancer: women with an allelic variant of this locus have a higher risk of early-stage disease (T/T vs. T/C vs. C/C, odds ratio 1.35, 95% confidence interval 1.05-1.75; p=0.021; ppermutat=0.027). Also, an increase in the number of C alleles in the female genotype increased the risk of stage I–II breast cancer by 17–18% per allele. There were no associations of polymorphic variants of SHBG candidate genes with the risk of severe disease (stage III–IV). The single nucleotide substitution rs10454142 TC in the PPP1R21 gene and the single nucleotide polymorphisms strongly linked to it are functionally significant (located in the regions of enhancers and promoters) in the epithelial and myoepithelial cells of the mammary gland and liver, affect the level of genome methylation, and are associated with the level of GTF2A1L gene expression.","PeriodicalId":36505,"journal":{"name":"Gynecology","volume":" 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141129122","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}

Side effects of endocrine therapy with tamoxifen (TAM) reduce the quality of life of patients with breast cancer (BC) and adversely affect treatment compliance. Against the background of treatment of BC with TAM, the risk of developing endometrial hyperplasia (EH) increases. At the moment, algorithms for monitoring patients receiving TAM by an obstetrician-gynecologist have not been developed and approved. There are also divergent opinions of experts regarding the diagnosis and management of patients in the detection of EH. This article presents the results of the final stage of the study in 2017–2022 – a survey study. The purpose of this study was to assess adherence to endocrine therapy and satisfaction with observation by a gynecologist of women with BC after 5 years of observation and their relationship with the identified early associated polymorphisms of the CYP2D6, CYP3A5, CYP2C9 and ABCB1 genes. \u0000Materials and methods. 54 patients with BC, out of 120 who had previously passed the first pharmacogenetic stage of the study, were interviewed with specially designed questionnaire. Due to the small sample size, delta percentages (∆%) were used in each comparison group with a difference threshold of 5%. To assess associations with the studied genetic polymorphisms, previously obtained significant associations of adverse drug reactions with pharmacogenetics in the same patients were used. \u0000Results. The prevalence of all adverse drug reactions (ADRs), with the exception of EH, was higher in the group of patients who canceled TAM. Over 5 years of follow-up, 57.4% of patients were regularly observed by an obstetrician-gynecologist, 42.59% of patients visited a gynecologist less than once a year. Of all the respondents, 53.7% of patients are satisfied with the regularity and quality of dispensary observation by an oncologist, 33.33% of patients are satisfied with the regularity and quality of dispensary observation by an obstetrician-gynecologist. All studied ADRs (EH, hot flashes, asthenia, bone pain and dyspepsia) associated with various genetic polymorphisms, prevailed in the group of patients who stopped taking TAM due to drug intolerance (∆%: 25.72, 6.97, 4.81, 6.97 and 24.52 respectively) compared with the TAM-group. \u0000Conclusion. The results obtained confirm the role of the studied genetic polymorphisms in the development of ADRs of TAM, but only systemic (hot flashes, asthenia, bone pain and dyspepsia).

To analyze the relationship between the expression of proteomic markers [estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PR) receptors, LIF, FOXA1, FOXA2] of endometrial receptivity and indicators of the levels of sex steroids [estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P)] in the peripheral blood during the “implantation window” in women with a history of reproductive dysfunction with “thin” endometrium (TE) and evaluate their significance for the therapeutic effect of using estradiol drugs. \u0000Materials and methods. The prospective cohort comparative study was conducted. The main group included 52 patients with TE (7 mm according to ultrasound on preovulatory days), the comparison group consisted of 62 women with normal endometrial thickness (≥7 mm according to ultrasound), women of both groups with reproductive dysfunctions of unknown reason; the control group included 16 healthy women. Aspiration biopsy of the endometrium was performed on the 6–8 days after ovulation (LH +6–8), as well as venipuncture to obtain a sample of peripheral blood to determine the E2, P levels. A combined histological and immunohistochemical study of endometrial samples was performed (ER, PR, LIF, FOXA1, FOXA2). The therapeutic effects of estradiol drugs were assessed in a cohort of women from the main group with TE (n=16 out of 26, those who have not changed their reproductive plans). \u0000Results. All women had ovulatory values of progesterone [P≥16.1 nmol/l (LH +6–8)] and normoestrogenemia in the blood (p0.05). According to the results of the correlation analysis, there were no associations between the E2, P levels and the value of M-echo, and no relationships were found between the E2, P levels and the expression of ER, PR, LIF, FOX-proteins. It was revealed that there are significant positive relationships between M-echo and FOXA2 expression in the endometrium (r=0.422; p0.001). Conditional threshold values for the ER, PR expression (LH +6–8) were determined, the excess of which is associated with abnormal expression of LIF, FOX-proteins: for PR in the glands – 105 and 285, for ER in glands – 145, for ER in the stroma – 155. It was found that usual doses of estradiol drugs (1–1.5 mg/day) are capable of increasing endometrial proliferation in women with TE, provided that the expression of ER, PR, LIF, FOX-proteins in their endometrium is similar to healthy women. Increased doses of estradiol drugs (4 mg/day) in women with TE had a significant effect in the form of an increase M-echo value and/or pregnancy in cases where the endometrial expression of LIF, FOX-proteins was comparable with healthy women, even in the presence of hormone-receptor interactions in the endometrium that are different from healthy women. Spontaneous pregnancy in participants of the main group with hypoplastic endometrium in our study occurred in 5 women in whom the expression characteristics of FOXA1 and/or FOXA2 in the endometrium were comparable to healthy women. \u0000Conclusion.

The above group showed a decrease in the diameter of the pelvic varicose veins: internal iliac (p0.001), ovarian (p0.0001) and arcuate (p0.001), an increase in their blood flow velocity (p=0.003, 0.041, and 0.040, respectively), a decrease in the duration of retrograde flow to 0.3 cm. There was a decrease in pelvic pain (p0.0001), dysmenorrhea (p=0.024), dyspareunia (p=0.037), the frequency of irregular menstruation (p=0.031), an improvement in quality of life (p=0.047), pregnancy rate (p=0.013), the number of live births (p=0.004), and the duration of remission (p=0.047). \u0000Conclusion. The use of a combination of antioxidants superoxide dismutase 250 mg 2 times a day, acetyl-glutathione at 100 mg 2 times a day, and astaxanthin 400 mg/day for 30 days in 3 courses with 2-month intervals combined with venotropic therapy can significantly improve the treatment outcomes of patients with PVV.","PeriodicalId":36505,"journal":{"name":"Gynecology","volume":" 24","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140996274","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}
