open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2011
Background Since a substantial percentage of ovarian cancers express gonadotropin receptors and are responsive to the relatively high concentrations of pituitary gonadotropins during the postmenopausal years, it has been suggested that receptor ...

Optimizing outcomes in intrauterine insemination: A narrative synthesis of two decades of clinical research (2000–2024)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a widely used first‐line fertility treatment, yet its success rates vary considerably. This review synthesizes evidence from peer‐reviewed studies published between 2000 and 2024, including randomized controlled trials, cohort and case–control studies, as well as systematic and narrative reviews identified ...

Luteal phase stimulation versus follicular phase stimulation in poor ovarian responders: A systematic review and a meta‐analysis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Poor ovarian response (POR) complicates a substantial proportion of in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles, frequently causing cycle cancellation and suboptimal reproductive outcomes. Conventional follicular‐phase ovarian stimulation (FPOS) protocols often yield limited results, prompting the evaluation of alternative strategies such ...

Porcine oocyte maturation in vitro : role of cAMP and oocyte-secreted factors: a practical approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Polyspermy or the penetration of more than one sperm cell remains a problem during porcine in vitro fertilization (IVF). After in vitro culture of porcine zygotes, only a low percentage of blastocysts develop and their quality is inferior to that of in ...

Correlation of anthropometric parameters with serum progesterone levels for the prediction of ovulation in infertile women in Ile‐Ife, Nigeria

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To correlate anthropometric parameters with serum levels of progesterone (P4) for the prediction of ovulation in infertile women. Methods Body mass index (BMI), cormic index (CI), waist‐hip ratio (WHR), waist‐height ratio (WHtR), neck circumference (NC) and triceps skinfold thickness (TSF) were measured for 60 anovulatory and ...

Effects of growth hormone administration on luteinizing hormone secretion in healthy older men and women

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2017
The known interactions between the somatotropic and hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal (HPG) axes have not been well delineated in older individuals. Aging‐associated decline in insulin like growth factor‐1 (IGF‐1) levels has been proposed to play a role in ...

Apoptosome activation, an important molecular instigator in 6-mercaptopurine induced Leydig cell death. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Leydig cells are crucial to the production of testosterone in males. It is unknown if the cancer chemotherapeutic drug, 6-mercaptopurine (6 MP), produces Leydig cell failure among adult survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Moreover, it is

Subclinical cardiac alterations and cardiometabolic profile in adolescents with newly diagnosed polycystic ovary syndrome: A cross‐sectional comparative echocardiographic study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective While cardiometabolic comorbidities have been well established in adults with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), it remains unclear whether the early signs of cardiovascular morbidity emerge during adolescence. This study aimed to investigate whether metabolic and cardiovascular alterations begin in adolescents with PCOS.
