    Objective: To study the prostanoid profile of the endometria of patients with recurrent implantation failure (RIF), unexplained infertility (UIF), and recurrent miscarriages (RM), and to compare them with the endometria of healthy fertile controls. Design: Prospective cohort study. Setting: University hospital. Patient(s): Fifteen patients with RIF, 18 patients with UIF, 16 patients with RM, and 23 fertile controls were recruited. Intervention(s): Endometrial samples were taken during the window of implantation. After tissue homogenization and extraction, analysis with ultra-performance liquid chromatography diode array detector electrospray ionisation tandemmass spectrometrywas performed. Main Outcome Measures: Concentrations of prostaglandin (PG) D1, PGE1, PGF1 alpha, 6-ketoPGF1 alpha GD2, PGE2, PGF2 alpha, 15-deoxy-Delta 12,14-PGJ2, PGD3, PGE3, PGF3 alpha, thromboxane B2, 13,14-dihydro-PGE1, 13,14-dihydro-PGF1 alpha, 13,14-dihydro-PGF2 alpha, 13,14dihydro-15-keto-PGE1, 13,14-dihydro-15-keto-PGE2, and 13,14-dihydro-15-keto-PGF2 alpha were assessed. Result(s): Comparison of the endometria of patients with UIF and the controls showed no statistically significant differences. When the endometria of patients with RIF were compared with the controls, thromboxane B2 (TXB2) was found significantly higher (843.1 pg/mg vs. 133.5 pg/mg). When the endometria of patients with RM were compared with controls, 13,14-dihydro-15-keto PGF2 alpha and TXB2 were found significantly higher (3907.30 pg/mg vs. 17.80 pg/mg and 858.7 pg/mg vs. 133.5 pg/mg respectively). Conclusion(s): We identified increased endometrial presence of TXB2 in patients with RM and RIF, and 13,14-dihydro-15-keto PGF2 alpha in patients with RM. Although common ground is observed for RM and RIF, prostanoids, on the other hand, might make their own contribution to endometrial receptivity as important as genes and proteins. Attempts to normalize the prostaglandin profile of the endometrium via enzymatic activity can open new therapeutic options. (C) 2019 by American Society for Reproductive Medicine.

    The effect of diagnostic hysteroscopy performed before fresh and frozen-thawed embryo transfer in IVF cycles on reproductive outcomes
    (GALENOS YAYINCILIK, 2021-01-01) Eserol, Fuat; Celik, Hale Goksever; Aytan, Asli Nehir; Celik, Ali; Celik, Engin; Buyru, Faruk; Bastu, Ercan
    Objective: Hysteroscopy is frequently performed in infertile women and thought to improve pregnancy rates. The data obtained from studies investigating the effect of hysteroscopy in in-vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles is variable. We aimed to evaluate the effect of hysteroscopy on pregnancy outcomes of fresh and frozen-thawed embryo transfers (FET) performed during IVF cycles. Material and Methods: The data of the 765 patients, who had IVF treatment between January 2015 and July 2017 in an infertility center, were retrospectively analyzed. Of those, 586 ( 76.6\%) patients underwent fresh embryo transfer, while 179 (23.4\%) patients underwent FET. Hysteroscopy performed by a single experienced surgeon was scheduled two months before transfer. Hysteroscopy was performed in 101/586 (17.2\%) in those undergoing fresh embryo transfer and 44/179 (24.6\%) patients in the FET group. Pregnancy outcomes of the groups were compared respectively within their own group. Results: The mean age was similar in patients in the fresh and FET groups (p=0.365, respectively). There was no difference in the number of transferred embryos between the groups ( p=0.218). In the fresh embryo group there were 246 pregnancies, of which 44 had undergone diagnostic hysteroscopy while 202 had not, (p=0.516) and 79 pregnancies in the FET group, of which 20 had undergone diagnostic hysteroscopy while 59 had not (p=0.711). There was no statistical difference according to pregnancy rate between the groups (p=0.538). Conclusion: Performing diagnostic hysteroscopy before fresh or FET does not improve the pregnancy rates.
