The function of peripheral nociceptors, the neurons that relay pain signals to the brain, are frequently tuned by local and systemic modulator substances. In this context, neurohormonal effects are emerging as an important modulatory mechan…
PURPOSE: Since the unexplained in vitro fertilization failure occurs frequently, it is of great importance and clinical value to identify potential underlying predictors. This study aimed to explore whether the percentage of sperm with a sm…
The function of peripheral nociceptors is frequently tuned by the action of G protein-coupled receptors (GPRs) that are expressed in them, which contribute to pain alteration. Expanding new information on such GPRs and predicting their pote…
BACKGROUND: Most of data available in the literature reported the sperm retrieval rate and limited intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) results of microdissection testicular sperm extraction (micro-TESE) in non-obstructive azoospermia (N…
Endometriosis is one of the women's aggressive but benign diseases, formed by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity. Various genes, including the GATA2 gene, are involved in the pathogenesis of endometrios…
Peripheral nociceptors and their synaptic partners utilize neuropeptides for signal transmission. Such communication tunes the excitatory and inhibitory function of nociceptor-based circuits, eventually contributing to pain modulation. Cort…
PURPOSE: To evaluate the epigenetic risk linked to assisted reproductive technology (ART) at single-embryo level by analyzing the methylation status of imprinted H19, PEG1, and KvDMR1 in human preimplantation embryos. METHODS: A total of 2…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between the size of an excised endometrioma and the magnitude of damage to the ovary after the surgery. DESIGN: A retrospective, controlled study. SETTING: A university hospital. PATIENT(S): Eig…
OBJECTIVE: To study the role and value of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) and laparoscopy for the treatment of adenomyosis with infertility. METHODS: Four cases were seen with adenomyosis and infertility, 3 of these cases …
