Hydatidosis is a severe parasitic disease caused by tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus widely spread in some endemic areas all over the world that primarily targets liver, lung, bones, muscles well as pelvis in casuistic cases. Due to the lack of pathognomonic signs as well as low prevalence rate of hydatid cysts in such anatomic sites, a differential diagnosis for relevant gynecological pathologies may be substantially complicated. Compared with common gynecological disease such as uterine fibroids, ovarian cyst and malignancies uterine hydatidosis may be identified only in 0.16 % cases.Aim: to present a clinical case of uterine hydatid cyst in order to optimize algorithms for differential diagnosis of primary pelvic echinococcosis and gynecological pathology, which is necessary for successfully conducted timely surgical treatment.Clinical case. In 2023, patient K. complained of dysuric phenomena and a feeling of heaviness in the pelvic area. Based on the anamnesis, clinical picture, laboratory and instrumental research methods, it was decided to perform surgical treatment. The patient underwent laparoscopic hysterectomy and removal of ¾ hydatid cyst. The obtained material was used for histological examination to verify the diagnosis.Results. Differential diagnosis of uterine echinococcosis is most often carried out with cystic or dysembryogenetic tumors, purulent or tuberculous abscesses, ovarian cysts, ovarian tumors, and uterine fibroids. Features of the MR picture, such as a thick compacted wall, the lack of internal septa, parietal and papillary outgrowths, as well as a solid component, allowed to suspect parasitic genesis of the neoplasm.Conclusion. While treating patients with cystic neoplasms of the pelvic area referred from endemic areas, echinococcosis should be included in the list of differential diagnostic searches.","PeriodicalId":36521,"journal":{"name":"Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproduction","volume":"4 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141343175","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}

It was revealed that various epigenetic abnormalities may play an important role in the endometriosis pathogenesis. The regulation of chromatin structure is carried out mainly by chromatin modifiers (CMs), which stimulate generation of genomic regions with different functional structures and thus change the patterns or levels of gene expression by exerting expected biological functions and causing epigenetic changes.Aim: to consider СМs role in endometriosis pathogenesis and their regulation mechanism assessing current publications.Materials and Methods. The search was conducted in the databases PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar and eLibrary. Keywords and phrases in Russian and English related to the research topic were used as follows: \"endometriosis\", \"chromatin modifiers\", \"histone acetylation\", \"DNA methylation\", \"microRNA\", \"endometriosis\", \"chromatin modifiers\", \"histone acetylation\", \"DNA methylation\", \"microRNA\". The evaluation of articles was carried out in accordance with PRISMA recommendations.Results. Chromatin modifiers control differentiation, growth and development, aging and cell death by interacting with various functional chromatin elements. They can cause abnormal gene expression by regulating chromatin structure affecting emergence and development of endometriosis. DNA methylation determines cell types, controls gene expression and genome stability. Abnormal DNA methylation in gene promoter regions necessary for normal endometrial response affects endometriosis development. DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitors reduce the methylation of human homeobox A10 (HOXA10) and progesterone receptor (PR) genes and potentiate their expression in endometrial cells, improving endometrial susceptibility and inhibiting cell cycle progression. Abnormal histone modifications in endometrial cells may facilitate or hinder the access of transcription mechanisms to chromatin DNA. Histone deacetylase inhibitors effectively eliminate the effects of abnormal histone modifications in endometriosis cells and prevent endometriosis progression. The expression of non-coding RNAs and chromatin remodeling complexes also alters chromatin structure being involved in arising endometriosis and is associated with infertility by promoting proliferation, invasion and migration of endometriod cells.Conclusion. Chromatin modifiers play a key role in developing endometriosis by controlling gene expression and chromatin structure. Understanding underlying mechanisms provides valuable information for diagnostics and development of new approaches to treat endometriosis.","PeriodicalId":36521,"journal":{"name":"Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproduction","volume":"116 38","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141361110","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}

Results. A high coagulation potential was revealed, more prominent after using ART (p < 0.05). Fibrinogen level gradually increased while gestation age increased, whereas APTT, PT and TT level decreased. In the group with natural conception, fibrinogen increased by 22 % in the second trimester, reaching 4.5 g/L (95 % CI = 4,2–4,8) and by 6 % in the third trimester, reaching 4.8 g/L (95 % CI = 4,3–5,4), whereas in the IVF group – by 26 %, reaching 5.3 g/L (95 % CI = 4,7–5,6) and by 21 %, reaching (6.5 g/L; 95 % CI = 5,2–6,8) in relevant trimester of pregnancy, respectively.

In obstetrics, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) including preeclampsia (РЕ) are one of the primary causes resulting in critical cases and maternal mortality. HDP prediction is a milestone that allows preventing complications as well as reducing the number of most common relevant complications of pregnancy. Existing algorithms that predict PE risk distribute the risks in such a way that a considerable number of patients fall into the category of false negative results, and, consequently, receive no timely prevention and proper follow-up. In particular, this cohort usually consists of patients with borderline high risks, who may be designated as a medium risk group or located in a “gray” zone. Aim: to develop a prognostic model for risk stratification in female patients with borderline to high developing PE risk based on combined first-trimester screening. Materials and Methods. A prospective comparative study included 1089 female patients who underwent a combined screening at 11–14 weeks of gestation. Group 1 consisted of female patients at high РЕ risk (1:100 and greater), while female patients at moderate risk (1:101–1:250) and low risk (below 1:250) were included into Group 2 and Group 3, respectively. All pregnant women underwent examination including assessed anamnestic, general clinical and laboratory data, mean blood pressure (BP), uterine artery pulsatility index, serum level of human chorionic gonadotropin beta-subunits (β-hCG), placental growth factor (PlGF), pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A). Results. An impact of various factors on risk of developing hypertensive disorders in pregnancy was assessed by binary logistic regression by identifying most significant among them and generating a statistical prediction model – the prognostic index of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy. The latter included: obstetric history, body mass index, PlGF, mean ВР, and alanine aminotransferase level. The sensitivity and specificity comprised 91.2 and 53.6 %, respectively, and the method effectivenesswas 81.8 %. Conclusion. The method proposed for HDP prediction is a second-line approach that may be used in clinical practice to stratify patients with borderline high risk of developing PE.","PeriodicalId":36521,"journal":{"name":"Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproduction","volume":"122 21","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141125379","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}
