Study of Post-hysterectomy Vault Prolapse and Surgical Management
ConclusionOnly 29.7% patients had complications, among which most common complication was urinary tract infection, which was treated with injectable antibiotics, urinary retention and buttock pain being the less common complication.

Intrauterine Administration of Autologous Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Concentrate (aka Autologous Blood Cell Derivative) Improves the Endometrial Thickness in 'Thin' Endometrium in the Frozen Embryo Transfer Cycle
ConclusionsThe implantation, clinical pregnancy and live birth rates were 36.4, 30 and 65%, respectively. This result is a significant improvement for patients with thin endometrium for whom we would otherwise cancel the frozen transfer. An autologous resource is a safe, readily available and inexpensive treatment modality. (Source: The Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology of India)

A Rapid, Sensitive  and Type-Specific Detection of High-Risk HPV-16 and HPV-18
AbstractHuman papillomavirus (HPV) infection, particularly infection with HPVs 16 and 18, is a major cause of cervical cancer. The current high-risk HPV screening or diagnosis tests use cytological or molecular techniques that are primarily based on qualitative HPV DNA detection. Comparative studies, however, revealed that different assays have varying sensitivities for detecting specific HPV types. Here, we developed and optimized a sensitive PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) assay for detection of high-risk HPV-16 and HPV-18. The PCR parameters were optimized, and analytical specificities were validated. Performance of dev...
