The impact of situation-background-assessment-recommendation (SBAR) on safety attitudes in the obstetrics department
Previous studies evaluating the situation-background-assessment-recommendation (SBAR) have been shown to increase effective nurse –physician communication and collaboration. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of the SBAR technique on safety attitudes in the obstetrics department. (Source: Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology)

Age is a major prognosticator in extremely low oocyte retrieval cycles
Clinical prognosis appears to be varied in females with poor ovarian response (POR), and poor responders defined by the Bologna criteria might not be sufficiently homogeneous. The aim of this study was to determine the major predictor of reproductive outcomes in extremely low oocyte retrieval cycles. (Source: Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology)

Risk factors and management of vaginal mesh erosion after pelvic organ prolapse surgery
Mesh erosion is a serious and not uncommon complication in women undergoing vaginal mesh repair. We hypothesized that mesh erosion is associated with the patient ’s comorbidities, surgical procedures, and mesh material. The aims of this study were to identify the risk factors and optimal management for mesh erosion. (Source: Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology)

Asymptomatic pyuria in pregnant women during the first trimester is associated with an increased risk of adverse obstetrical outcomes
Urinalysis is included in the prenatal examination in the first trimester in Taiwan, in contrast to Western countries. We aimed to investigate whether asymptomatic pyuria as detected by urinalysis was associated with adverse perinatal outcomes. (Source: Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology)

A promising protein responsible for overactive bladder in ovariectomized mice
Ovariectomy (OVX) in mice is a model mimicking a neuro-electronic proof of an overactive bladder in postmenopausal women. Overactive bladder (OAB) was recently found to be due to an altered gap junction protein in a rat model. Thus, this study was conducted to evaluate changes in cell junction protein expression and composition in the bladder of OVX mice. (Source: Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology)

Effect of a gymnastics program on sleep characteristics in pregnant women
The quality and quantity of sleep represent important health issues in pregnant women. Sleep disturbances could be associated, beyond alteration of quality of life, with poor pregnancy outcome. Our aim was to investigate the effect of a regular, specific, medium-term physical training program on sleep characteristics in healthy pregnant women.

Gene set-based analysis of mucinous ovarian carcinoma
Mucinous ovarian carcinoma (MOC) is an uncommon subtype of epithelial ovarian cancers, and the pathogenesis is still poorly understood because of its rarity. We conducted a gene set-based analysis to investigate the pathogenesis of MOC by integrating microarray gene expression datasets based on the regularity of functions defined by gene ontology or canonical pathway databases.

Euchromatic variants of 8q21.2 in twins
Euchromatic variants (EVs) of 8q21.2 are extremely rare chromosomal abnormalities. So, far there have only been two reports on EVs of 8q21.2. Here, we report an 8q21.2 EV detected in cultured amniotic-fluid cells of twins. It was later found to be inherited from the mother, who did not present with abnormal phenotypes.

Ileocecal endometriosis: diagnosis and management
Ileocecal endometriosis is rare. Symptoms range from no symptoms, cramps, vomiting, to acute intestinal obstruction. Our objective was to review our cases, clarify, and resume its most appropriate management focusing on the factors to determine diagnosis. This is a retrospective study by revision of medical charts of all ileal endometriosis cases of our unit from 2006 to 2014. (Source: Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology)
