An autosomal recessive mutation (ipv) causing infertility in homozygous females (ipv/ipv) because of imperforate vaginae was discovered in a line of mice selected for low lean tissue mass as a proportion of body weight. The aim of this study was to determine if the mutation could be propagated in

OBJECTIVE To assess the role of hysterosalpingoscintigraphy (HSSG) in the evaluation of fallopian tube patency and function and compare the results with hysterosalpingography (HSG) and laparoscopy (LS). METHODS Cross-sectional study. METHODS The study was conducted at Multan Institute of Nuclear

OBJECTIVE To evaluate serum albumin levels in women with and without polycystic ovaries (PCO) before and during the development of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), and to compare them with control women who did not develop OHSS. METHODS We conducted a case-control study in a teaching

Varicocele is the most common and surgically correctible cause of male infertility in men attending to infertility clinics. Infertility affects 15% of all couples and male factor is the primary or contributing cause in 40% to 60% of cases. Varicocele has been shown to cause male infertility in about

Hemoperfusion through albumin-conjugated agarose gel (AAG) effectively removes bilirubin (BR) and other albumin-bound materials from whole blood or plasma. We have used this technique to treat neonatal jaundice in premature rhesus monkeys with a specially designated apparatus which permits

One of the most frequent reasons of the intraperitoneal adhesions formation in young women is pelvic inflammatory disease and surgical operations of pelvic organs. The element of more complex activities against adhesion creation is to limit an inflammatory reaction in the area of operation by

A number of patients who have involuntary infertility show sperm antibodies in the blood serum, as detected by two quite different methods of spermagglutination. These techniques are the Kibrick method (gelatin agglutination test) and the F-D method (tube-slide agglutination test). By the former

In this work, we evaluate the stability of a new freeze-dried and albumin-free formulation of recombinant human IFN alpha 2b (rhIFN-alpha2b) to be used in humans. The freeze-dried, albumin-free formulation was stored at the recommended temperature of 4 degrees C, and under accelerated storage

This study aims to examine the role of ischaemic-modified albumin (IMA) in predicting clomiphene citrate (CC) resistance in patients with CC-resistant and CC-sensitive infertile polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Sixty women patients admitted to the infertility clinic were evaluated. The patients

BACKGROUND Keratoconjunctivitis sicca from chronic graft-versus-host disease (cgvhd) after allogeneic stem cell transplantation is common, leading to severe corneal damage and blindness if not treated. We retrospectively examined the efficacy and safety of pooled human albumin eye drops (haeds) for

The development of parenteral solution dosage forms of interferon alpha 2 (rhIFN-alpha2) without human albumin may significantly diminish the problem of forming highly immunogenic rhIFN-alpha 2b aggregates and the potential risk of blood-transmitted diseases caused by infectious viruses and often

In the treatment of infertility employing in vitro fertilisation and embryo transfer (IVF-EF), oocytes, spermatozoa and pre-embryos are cultured for 48 hours outside the woman's body before they are introduced into the uterus. In addition to the necessary salts, the media in which this culture takes

Thirteen patients with malabsorption, 7 women and 5 men, were investigated extensively. All showed low serum zinc concentrations irrespective of the duration of illness and degree of malabsorption. Eleven of the 13 had active coeliac disease. It was suspected that the low serum zinc concentrations

OBJECTIVE To study the place of sperm preparation and in utero insemination in subfertile couples in whom ovulatory and tubal aetiological factors have been excluded or treated. METHODS A retrospective cohort study. METHODS Diagnostic Seminology Laboratory, Galle. METHODS Patients (n = 325) who had

Membrane filtration, frequently used for removing antibacterial activity in assays of sterility and contamination of the antibiotics, presents the drawback of adsorption of antibiotic to membrane. The washing with large volumes of peptone water removes partially interferences with microbial growth.
