Poster abstracts deep endometriosis were submitted to US and MR so as to correlate the findings. In both methods the sizes, location and the extension of the lesions were analyzed. Results: US detected a total of 40 lesions meanwhile MR detected 53 lesions in the pelvis. The comparative study between US and MR has not shown significant statistical difference (P > 0, 19% and P > 0, 14%, respectively). Taking into consideration rectosigmoid junction, MR has detected one lesion (5.6%) meanwhile US has indicated four lesions (22.2%). In the rectum lesions, US has detected eight (44.4%) and MR detected seven lesions (38.9%). Conclusions: US presented better results in the rectosigmoid junction and in the rectum; however it has detected a smaller number of lesions in the pelvis. In the global comparative analyses between US and MR in the detection of the lesions, there was no significant statistical difference.Supporting information can be found in the online version of this abstract. Objectives: To research the peculiarities of uterus tissual blood flow during steroid therapy of adenomyosis. Methods: 66 patients with adenomyosis, diagnosed according to clinical symptoms, transvaginal ultrasonography with color Doppler imaging (CDI) and loop biopsy of myometrium, were treated with combination of 30 mkg of ethinylestradiol and 2 mg of dienogest for 3 months daily and then for 9 months under contraception regimen, the menstrual blood volume, dysmenorrhea, the quantity of blood flow loci in myometrium were meanwhile observed. The patients were divided in two groups according to treatment results: effective -60, ineffective -6. Results: In the first 6 months of treatment, the menstrual blood volume was reduced significantly (P < 0.01) in both groups, and dysmenorrhea was obviously relieved. According to the data of CDI the quantity of color loci in middle and internal layers of myometrium per unit area during the treatment in the first group was reduced by the 3 month (P < 0.01) and didn't change during the treatment and for 3 months after cessation of therapy. In the second group recurrences of haemorrhage and/or dysmenorrhea served as indications for surgical treatment in 2 cases 8-10 months since the beginning of treatment, in 4 cases in 3 months after the cessation. In this group the reduction of myometrium vascularisation level wasn't registered in 5 cases in the whole course of observation. The difference in quantity of blood flow loci in 3 and 6 months after the beginning of the treatment between groups was significant (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Continuously high level of myometrium vascularisation according CDI data can serve as a predictor of ineffectiveness of steroid therapy of patients with adenomyosis.
Objective: To validate the use of placenta accreta risk-antepartum (PAR-A) score as a predictive tool of clinical outcomes of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS).Methods: This is a prospective study, conducted in six PAS specialized centers in six different countries. The study was conducted between October 1, 2020 and March 31, 2021. Women who were provisionally diagnosed with PAS during pregnancy were considered eligible. A machine-learning-based PAR-A score was calculated. Diagnostic performance of the PAR-A score was evaluated using a receiver operating characteristic curve, for perioperative massive blood loss and admission to intensive care unit (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT04525001).Results: Of 97 eligible women, 86 were included. PAS-associated massive blood loss occurred in 10 patients (11.63%). Median PAR-A scores of massive blood loss in the current cohort were 8.9 (interquartile range 6.9-14.1). In predicting massive blood loss, the area under the curve of PAR-A scores was 0.85 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.74-0.95), which was not significantly different from the original cohort (P = 0.2). PAR-A score prediction of intensive care unit admission was slightly higher compared with the original cohort (0.88, 95% CI 0.81-0.95; P = 0.06). Conclusion:PAR-A score is a novel scoring system of PAS outcomes, which showed external validity based on current data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
