Post-polyp detection, CRC risk ID'd by colonoscopy factors

(HealthDay) -- In the community setting, after colonoscopic polyp detection, colonoscopy-related factors such as incomplete polyp removal and lack of surveillance colonoscopies are more important than...

Colonoscopy Related Factors Associated with Increased Risk of Cancer

Incomplete polyp removal and failure to have a follow-up colonoscopy within five years after the detection of the first polyp are more strongly associated with an increased risk of developing colorect...

Placental blood flow can influence malaria during pregnancy

Malaria in pregnancy causes a range of adverse effects, including abortions, stillbirths, premature delivery and low infant birth weight. Many of these effects are thought to derive from a placental i...

Hyperemesis gravidarum during the second trimester is more likely to cause placental complications

Pregnancies complicated by hyperemesis gravidarum in the second trimester of pregnancy are at a much higher risk of associated placental dysfunction disorders such as placental abruption and small for...

Colonoscopy Issues Predict Cancer Risk (CME/CE)

(MedPage Today) -- Incomplete polyp removal and failure to have a follow-up colonoscopy were more strongly associated with the risk for subsequent development of colorectal cancer than were polyp char...

During The Second Trimester, Hyperemesis Gravidarum Is More Likely To Cause Placental Complications

Pregnancies complicated by hyperemesis gravidarum in the second trimester of pregnancy are at a much higher risk of associated placental dysfunction disorders such as placental abruption and small for...

Placental Malaria Detected by Rapid Method

Evaluation of interventions to prevent malaria in pregnancy often relies on placental blood microscopy, which is time consuming and...

Precancerous Polyp Detection Rates Increased By Split-Dose Preparation For Colonoscopy

A new study from researchers at the Mayo Clinic Arizona showed that system-wide implementation of a split-dose preparation as the primary choice for colonoscopy significantly improved both polyp detec...

A placental polyp arising from an exaggerated placental site.

There are very few reported cases of the clinical course of exaggerated placental site, and a case of a placental polyp arising from an exaggerated placental site has not been reported previously. Her...

Direct Quantification of Inorganic Polyphosphate in Microbial Cells Using 4'-6-Diamidino-2-Phenylindole (DAPI).

Inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) is increasingly being recognized as an important phosphorus sink within the environment, playing a central role in phosphorus exchange and phosphogenesis. Yet despite t...

The correlation of ultrasonographic placental architecture with placental histology in the low-risk primigravid population.

Abstract Aim: To determine the association, if any, between placental architecture findings assessed ultrasonographically at 22 and 36 weeks and placental histology. Methods: There was prospective rec...

Appropriate interval between endometrial polyp resection and the proceeding IVF start.

PURPOSE: Endometrial polyp is the commenest pathology among the structural uterine abnormalities. In this study we compared the IVF outcomes of patients who underwent hysteroscop...

Ultrasound assessment of placental function: the effectiveness of placental biometry in a low-risk population as a predictor of a small for gestational age neonate.

OBJECTIVE: The aims of the study were to establish reference ranges for placental length and thickness in a low-risk obstetric population and to assess the likelihood of a small for gestational age (S...
