Our results suggest that D-dimer may represent a valuable acute marker of ovarian torsion. The cut-off value for D-dimer was 402 ng/ml. Although rats in Group3 had higher IMA than in other groups, the difference was only close to statistical significance. Also, increasing duration of torsion was associated with reduced D-dimer levels, while IMA levels exhibited an increase during the 24 h period. In contrast with previous studies, IMA appeared to be a potential marker in the long term rather than the short term.
Vulvar cancers, which constitute 5% of all gynecologic cancers, are the fourth most common female genital cancers, preceded by uterine, ovarian and cervical cancers. The treatment methods employed for vulvar cancers have changed over the years, with previously applied radical surgical approaches, such as en bloc resection, being gradually suspended in favor of treatment approaches that require dissection of less tissue. While the removal of less tissue, which today's approaches have focused on, prevents morbidity, this method seems to result in higher risks of recurrence. It is therefore important that the balance between preventing the recurrence of the disease and forefending against postoperative complications and vulvar deformity be properly understood. As a working assumption, if patients with vulvar cancer are diagnosed at an early stage, properly evaluated and administered appropriate treatment, the most positive results can be obtained. This paper aims to highlight this assumption and demonstrate, through the provision of actual data, how to plan the treatment approach for patients who are diagnosed early. Statements extracted from the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Guidelines Version 1.2016 Sub-Committees on vulvar squamous cell carcinoma and articles by the European Society of Gynaecological Oncology (ESGO) regarding Vulvar Cancer Recommendations were used to obtain updated information.
ÖZETAmaç: Doğum sırasında fetal koşulları belirlemek; asfiksi ve fetal hipoksideki nörolojik sekellere bağlı fetal ölümleri minimuma indirmek için önemlidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, perinatal sonuçları öngörüde, fetal kardiyotokografinin başarısını değerlendirmektedir. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan kadınların ortalama yaşı 27.82 ± 5.29 ve ortalama pariteleri 1.09 ± 0.96 idi. 85 yeni doğanda pH normalken, 13 tanesinde fetal asfiksi görül-dü. Bu iki grup arasında göbek kordon kanı (kök hücre kaynağı) pH, pO 2 , ya da pCO 2 da anlamlı değişiklikler gözlenmedi (sırasıyla p = 0.497, p = 0.722, and p = 0.05). Kardiyotokografiye dayalı fetal distres ve normal grup arasında annelik yaşı, parite ya da doğum ağırlığında anlamlı derecede farklılık gözlemlenmedi. Gereç ve yöntem:Sonuç: Kardiyotografi doğum yönetimi için doğum sıra-sında önemli bir testtir, ancak perinatal sonuçları öngör-mek için yetersizdir. Bu yüzden doğum kişiselleştirmeye dayalı bir şekilde değerlendirilmelidir.Anahtar kelimeler: Apgar skoru, kan gazlari analizi, sezaryen doğum, kardiyotografi ABSTRACT Objectives: The determination of the fetal condition during labor is important to minimize fetal death due to asphyxia and the neurological sequelae of fetal hypoxia. This study evaluated the success of fetal cardiotocography in predicting perinatal consequences. Materials and methods:This study enrolled 101 full-term pregnant women admitted for delivery to Vakif Gureba Training and Research Hospital between October 2009 and February 2010. Women were included if they were aged 18-45 years and within 36-41 weeks of gestation. During a 20-min period of fetal monitoring, a change in FHR (fetal heart rate) lasting for 15 s or two elevated runs of 15 beats was evaluated as a reactive NST (non-stress test). The umbilical artery pH was used as the "gold standard" for assessing fetal asphyxia. Results:The mean age of the women included in the study was 27.82 ± 5.29 years, the average parity was1.09 ± 0.96. The pH was normal in 85 neonates, while 13 had fetal asphyxia. No significant difference in umbilical cord blood pH, pO 2 , or pCO 2 was observed between these two groups (p = 0.497, p = 0.722, and p = 0.053, respectively. No significant difference in maternal age, parity, or birth weight was found between the group with fetal distress based on CTG (cardiotocography) and the normal group. Conclusion:Cardiotocography is an important test during labor for labor management, it is insufficient for predicting the perinatal outcome. Therefore, labor should be evaluated on an individualized basis. J Clin Exp Invest 2012; 3(2): 168-171
Objectives: The aim of the study was to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of colposcopy and to determine the strength of correlation between colposcopic impression using the Reid Colposcopic Index (RCI) and histopathology. Material and methods:
