Predictive value of contrast-enhanced MRI for the regrowth of residual uterine fibroids after high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment

Insights into Imaging
Objectives To investigate whether the signal intensity (SI) ratio of residual fibroid (RF) to myometrium using Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CE-MRI) could predict fibroid regrowth after high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment ...

Prostaglandin pathways in equine myometrium regulations: endometrosis progression

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
IntroductionProstaglandins (PG) are important regulators of the myometrial contractility in mammals. Endometrosis, a condition characterized by morphological changes in the equine endometrium, also affects endometrial secretory function.

Spatial heterogeneity enhances and modulates excitability in a mathematical model of the myometrium [PDF]

, 2013
The muscular layer of the uterus (myometrium) undergoes profound changes in global excitability prior to parturition. Here, a mathematical model of the myocyte network is developed to investigate the hypothesis that spatial heterogeneity is essential to ...

A close look at the contraction and relaxation of the myometrium; the role of calcium.

Journal of the Turkish-German Gynecological Association, 2013
The function and regulation of the myometrium, especially during pregnancy, labour and birth are important in reproductive physiology. It is crucial to understand the mechanisms that generate and modulate uterine contractility in order to be able to ...

Immunohistochemical localization of selected pro-inflammatory factors in uterine myomas and myometrium in women of various ages.

Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2013
Uterine myomas represent one of the most frequently manifested benign tumors in women. They originate from smooth muscle cells of myometrium or its blood vessels.

Safety and Effectiveness of Uterine Gauze Packing for Refractory Postpartum Haemorrhage: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The role of uterine gauze packing in treating refractory postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is uncertain given limited evidence of benefit and possible harms. Objectives To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of uterine packing using plain gauze or gauze impregnated with haemostatic agent(s) for treating refractory PPH.
