This study evaluates how pregnancy affects relapse rates and long-term disability in women with moderate to severe multiple sclerosis (MS), showing pregnancy reduces relapse during gestation without worsening long-term disability progressio
Impact of Treatment Recommendation and Receipt on Survival in Older Women with Early-Stage Cervical Cancer
This study reveals that among women aged 65 and older with early-stage cervical cancer, those who receive recommended treatment—surgery and/or radiotherapy—exhibit significantly higher survival rates, emphasizing the need to overcome treatm
Sleep Disorders in Pregnancy: Unveiling Their Impact on Ischemic Placental Disease and Severe Morbidity
Pregnant individuals with insomnia or obstructive sleep apnea face significantly increased risks of ischemic placental disease, severe maternal morbidity, and preterm birth, highlighting the critical need for early detection and interventio
Influence of Physician Peer Networks on the Adoption of Opportunistic Salpingectomy for Ovarian Cancer Prevention
Physician peer influence significantly increases the adoption of opportunistic salpingectomy during postpartum and interval tubal sterilizations, enhancing ovarian cancer prevention.
Intranasal Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for Perinatal Arterial Stroke: Promising Safety and Improved Neurodevelopment at Two Years
The PASSIoN study shows that intranasally administered allogeneic mesenchymal stromal cells in neonates with perinatal arterial ischemic stroke are safe up to two years and suggest better motor outcomes compared to untreated cohorts.
Evaluating Low-Dose Aspirin for Postpartum Venous Thromboembolism Prevention: Insights from the Pilot PARTUM Trial
The pilot PARTUM trial demonstrates the feasibility of a large-scale multi-national randomized study assessing low-dose aspirin versus placebo for postpartum venous thromboembolism prevention in moderate-risk individuals, supporting further
Certolizumab Pegol Shows Promise in Reducing Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes in High-Risk APS Patients: Insights from the IMPACT Trial
The IMPACT trial demonstrates that adding certolizumab pegol to standard therapy reduces placenta-mediated adverse pregnancy outcomes in women with antiphospholipid syndrome and lupus anticoagulant, with favorable safety and neonatal outcom
Aspirin for Delaying Preterm Birth in High-Risk Preterm Pre-eclampsia Pregnancies: Insights from a Multicenter Randomized Trial in Asia
Early low-dose aspirin reduces early preterm birth risk and delays timing of delivery in women at high risk for preterm pre-eclampsia, with significant benefits in iatrogenic preterm births and small-for-gestational-age pregnancies.
Optimizing Nifedipine GITS Dosing in Severe Preeclampsia: Daily 60 mg versus 30 mg BID – Evidence from a Randomized Controlled Trial
This RCT compares nifedipine GITS 30 mg twice daily versus 60 mg once daily in severe preeclampsia, finding similar blood pressure control but fewer emergent treatments with twice-daily dosing, informing safer antihypertensive strategies in
Coenzyme Q10: A Natural Ally Against Ovarian Aging and a Booster for Female Fertility
Scientific evidence highlights coenzyme Q10 supplementation as a promising intervention to combat ovarian aging, improve oocyte quality, and enhance female fertility, especially for women over 35 or with compromised ovarian reserve.
Enhanced Therapeutic Benefits of Combined Metformin and Curcumin in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Results from a Factorial Clinical Trial
A 12-week randomized trial demonstrates that combining metformin and nanocurcumin significantly improves lipid metabolism, glucose regulation, hormonal balance, and body metrics in women with PCOS, surpassing effects seen with either agent
Innovative Combination Therapy in Recurrent Advanced Endometrial Cancer: Insights from the ENDOLA Phase I/II Trial
The ENDOLA trial explored olaparib with metronomic cyclophosphamide and metformin, demonstrating a favorable safety profile and promising efficacy in heavily pretreated recurrent endometrial cancer patients, highlighting molecular subtype-d
Metformin in Gynecologic Cancers: A Comprehensive Review of Evidence in Cervical, Ovarian, and Endometrial Cancer
This review synthesizes recent evidence on metformin’s therapeutic and prognostic roles in cervical, ovarian, and endometrial cancers, highlighting randomized trials, meta-analyses, and clinical outcomes with a focus on progression-free and
Metformin as an Adjunct to Chemoradiotherapy in Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer: Insights on Safety, Tolerability, and Feasibility from a Phase II Randomized Trial
This phase II study shows that adding metformin to standard chemoradiotherapy in locally advanced cervical cancer is safe, well tolerated, and feasible, with no significant increase in severe adverse events and successful biomarker-based tu
Evaluating Metformin Addition to Paclitaxel/Carboplatin in Advanced and Recurrent Endometrial Cancer: Insights from an NRG Oncology/GOG Phase II/III Trial
This phase II/III study assessed whether adding metformin to standard paclitaxel and carboplatin improved outcomes in advanced and recurrent endometrial cancer. The trial was stopped early due to lack of survival benefit and potential harm,
Enhanced Therapeutic Outcomes in Overweight/Obese Women with PCOS: Combining Metformin and Semaglutide
Combination therapy with metformin and semaglutide improves weight loss, metabolic parameters, menstrual function, and natural pregnancy rates in overweight/obese women with PCOS compared to metformin alone.
Metabolic Health in Pregnancy: Unveiling the Differential Impact of Prenatal Behavioral Interventions on Obesity Phenotypes
This analysis reveals that metabolic health phenotypes, rather than gestational weight gain alone, significantly influence maternal and infant outcomes in prenatal behavioral interventions among obese pregnant women.
Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation: A Novel Approach to Managing Postpartum Uterine Contraction Pain after Cesarean Delivery
A randomized clinical trial shows that transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation significantly reduces postpartum uterine contraction pain, incisional pain, anxiety, and depression, enhancing recovery and sleep quality in cesarean de
