Are the Stage and the Incidental Finding of Endometriosis Associated with Fallopian Tube Occlusion? A Retrospective Cohort Study on Laparoscopic Chromopertubation in Infertile Women

Endometriosis seems to have a strong negative effect on female fertility. The aim of this study was to assess the rate of tubal occlusion diagnosed via laparoscopic chromopertubation in infertile women with endometriosis and compare the results to infertile women without endometriosis. In this retrospective cohort study, 275 infertile women with endometriosis and 49 infertile women without endometriosis undergoing diagnostic laparoscopy for primary or secondary infertility with chromopertubation at the Medical University of Vienna between January 2012 and December 2020 have been investigated. During the laparoscopic assessment of tubal patency, significantly more fallopian tubes were occluded in the endometriosis group compared to the control group (25.8 versus 15.3%; p = 0.029). Unilateral and bilateral occlusion was found significantly more often in patients with endometriosis (p = 0.021). In the multivariate analysis, only the rASRM stage (the revised classification of endometriosis by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine) showed a significant association with bilateral occlusion (OR 1.400, 95%CI: 1.018–1.926; p = 0.038). Both a higher rASRM stage (OR 2.181, 95%CI: 1.191–3.995; p = 0.012) and secondary infertility (OR 1.514, 95%CI: 1.156–1.983; p = 0.003) were associated with an increased risk for any kind of fallopian tube occlusion. Endometriosis seems to be associated with an increased risk for fallopian tube occlusion. The rate of tubal occlusion increased significantly with the rASRM stage

Does anti-Mullerian hormone predict the outcome of further pregnancies in idiopathic recurrent miscarriage? : A retrospective cohort study

Purpose To evaluate whether anti-Mullerian hormone, basal follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, estradiol, and female age would predict future outcomes in women with idiopathic recurrent miscarriage. Methods One hundred and sixteen women with idiopathic recurrent miscarriage were retrospectively included. Luteal support with or without a combined treatment regimen for idiopathic recurrent miscarriage was applied in a tertiary-care center in Vienna. Occurrence and outcome of further pregnancies were analyzed. Results Within a median follow-up duration of 42.3 months, 94 women (81.0%) achieved one or more pregnancies. Further miscarriages occurred in 47 patients in whom only a higher number of previous miscarriages was predictive (OR 3.568, 95% CI 1.4578.738; p=0.005). Fifty-seven women had a live birth >23+0 gestational weeks. In a multivariate analysis, age (OR 0.920, 95% CI 0.8590.986; p=0.019) and the number of previous miscarriages (OR 0.403, 95% CI 0.1930.841; p=0.016), but not AMH (OR 1.191, 95% CI 0.9721.461; p=0.091) were significantly predictive. Conclusion AMH seems of either no or only minor relevance for the prediction of further miscarriages and live birth in women with idiopathic recurrent miscarriage.(VLID)363267

Shari‘a Courts in the Ottoman Empire Before the Tanzimat

International audienceThis article describes the history, features and functions of the Islamic law courts in the Ottoman Empire before the Tanzimat era. After briefly surveying of the roots of this institution in pre-Ottoman settings, the article focusses on how Ottoman administrators and juridical experts built on this legacy. Later, the article discusses the modern scholarly literature on the court in a way to reflect on its prevalent tendencies
