2. 1. Clinical and Biochemical Features of Adult Diabetes Mellitus in Sudan

   Author : Moawia Abdelgadir; Christian Berne; Anders Karlsson; Per-Eric Lins; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Medicine; diabetes mellitus; leptin; gestational diabetes mellitus; pregnancy; perinatal morbidity and mortality; carbohydrate rich-meals; self-monitoring; quality of life; sense of coherence; lower limb amputation; Sudan; Medicin;

   Abstract : The high prevalence of diabetes mellitus among the Sudanese population is linked to obesity, poor glycaemic control and a high rate of complications. This study investigated 1/ Leptin hormone and its correlations with different biochemical characteristics in Sudanese diabetic subjects, 2/ The impact of glycaemic control on pregnancy outcome in pregnancies with diabetes, 3/ The glycaemic response to Sudanese traditional carbohydrate foods, 4/ The influence of glucose self-monitoring on the glycaemic control among this population, 5/ The health related quality of life in Sudanese subjects with diabetes-related lower limb amputation.

4. 2. Hyperglycaemia during pregnancy : The challenge of screening and deciding diagnostic criteria for gestational diabetes in Sweden

   Author : Maryam de Brun; Helena Backman; David Simmons; Per Ovesen; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; gestational diabetes mellitus; screening; prevalence; maternal and neonatal outcomes; health economic analysis;

   Abstract : Hyperglycaemia during pregnancy is one of the most common complicationsof pregnancy. In 2013, the World Health Organisation recommended diagnostic criteria (WHO-2013) for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), whichremains controversial due to an expected increase in prevalence, and the uncertainty as to the clinical relevance of treating these additional women or its cost-effectiveness.

5. 3. Studies on genetic aberrations as possible predictors of the outcome of assisted reproduction

   Author : Mona Bungum; Malmö Reproduktionsmedicin; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; assisted reproduction; IUI; Sperm chromatin; ICSI; intra-individual variation; fertilisation failure genetic aberration; Protein C inhibitor gene; sperm DNA damage SCSA; IVF;

   Abstract : Traditionally, diagnosis of male infertility has relied upon microscopic assessment of semen. The normality criteria set by the World Health Organization (WHO) in regard to sperm concentration, motility and morphology are, however, poor predictors of fertility. READ MORE

6. 4. Ovarian Reserve and Assisted Reproduction

   Author : Thomas Brodin; Jan Holte; Matts Olovsson; Lars Berglund; Juha Tapanainen; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; AFC; AMH; anti-Müllerian hormone; antral follicle count; follicle-stimulating hormone; FSH; ICSI; infertility; intracytoplasmic sperm injection; in vitro fertilization; IVF; LH; live birth; luteinizing hormone; menstrual cycle; menstrual cycle length; ovarian reserve; pregnancy; reproductive endocrinology; reproductive technology; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

   Abstract : Treatment success in IVF-ICSI is mainly limited by female age, but differences in ovarian reserve (OR; the remaining pool of oocytes and their quality) between individuals modify treatment prerequisites among women of similar age. OR may be assessed by OR tests (ORTs). READ MORE

7. 5. Factors of importance for the outcome of IVF-treatment in women with tubal infertility

   Author : György Csemiczky; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : In vitro fertilization; grade of tubal damage; extent of reconsructive surgery; E2; P4; prognostic factors; ovarian failure; endometrium; implantation.;

   Abstract : In vitro fertilization embryo transfer (IVF-ET) is a well-established infertility treatment caused by damage of the fallopian tube, which is one of the largest diagnostic categories in most IVF programs. This study evaluates factors of importance for the outcome of IVF-treatment: age, tubal damage grade, extent of reconstructive surgery, endocrine ovarian function and endometrial development.
