EMAS position statement: Predictors of premature and early natural menopause.
2019
Simoncini, Tommaso/0000-0002-2971-0079; Chung, Hsin-Fang/0000-0003-3261-5942; Mishra, Gita/0000-0001-9610-5904 WOS:000468709100014 PubMed ID: 31027683 Introduction: While the associations of genetic, reproductive and environmental factors with the timing of natural menopause have been extensively investigated, few epidemiological studies have specifically examined their association with premature (< 40 years) or early natural menopause (40-45 years). Aim: The aim of this position statement is to provide evidence on the predictors of premature and early natural menopause, as well as recommendations for the management of premature and early menopause and future research.

Biocompatible Lipid Nanoparticles as Carriers to Improve Curcumin Efficacy in Ovarian Cancer Treatment
2017
Curcumin is a natural molecule with proved anticancer efficacy on several human cancer cell lines. However, its clinical application has been limited due to its poor bioavailability. Nanocarrier-based drug delivery approaches could make curcumin dispersible in aqueous media, thus overtaking the limits of its low solubility. The aim of this study was to increase the bioavailability and the antitumoral activity of curcumin, by entrapping it into nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs). For this purpose here we describe the preparation and characterization of three kinds of curcumin-loaded NLCs. The nanosystems allowed the achievement of a controlled release of curcumin, the amounts of curcumin r…
Randomized trial of primary debulking surgery versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy for advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (SCORPION-NCT01461850)
2020
ObjectiveTo investigate whether neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery is superior to primary debulking surgery in terms of perioperative complications and progression-free survival, in advanced epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer patients with high tumor load.MethodsPatients with advanced epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer (stage IIIC-IV) underwent laparoscopy. Patients with high tumor load assessed by a standardized laparoscopic predictive index were randomly assigned (1:1 ratio) to undergo either primary debulking surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy (arm A), or neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by int…
Rescue of ovarian function: stem cells and regenerative factors
2022
El envejecimiento y otras condiciones de daño adquiridas, como los tratamientos oncológicos, conducen a un deterioro de la función ovárica. Sin embargo, incluso cuando los ovarios dañados pierden su capacidad de ovular, permanece un conjunto residual de folículos quiescentes que podrían ser rescatados y desarrollados en un nicho ovárico adecuado, dando lugar a ovocitos maduros. Los factores solubles secretados por las células madre podrían proporcionar un entorno ovárico adecuado para mantener y promover el crecimiento folicular. Por lo tanto, la presente tesis doctoral tuvo como objetivo evaluar los efectos regenerativos de diferentes fuentes de factores secretados por células madre en mod…
Trasplante autólogo de médula ósea en ovario en mujeres con baja reserva ovárica y fallo ovárico precoz, para rejuvenecimiento del nicho ovárico y fa…
2020
Como consecuencia del retraso de la maternidad a causa de las tendencias sociales actuales, existe una disminución de la calidad y cantidad de ovocitos disponibles. Al problema fisiológico de la edad materna avanzada, se suman dos patologías, que asocian una baja reserva ovárica, en pacientes jóvenes: baja respuesta ovárica (del inglés, poor ovarian response, o POR), e insuficiencia ovárica prematura(del inglés, premature ovarian insufficiency o POI). Numerosos protocolos de estimulación ovárica han sido desarrollados, sin ser efectivos, siendo en la mayoría de los casos, la única opción para estas pacientes la donación de ovocitos/embriones. Varios trabajos de investigación han descrito la…
CISTOADENOMA GIGANTE DELL'OVAIO: CONSIDERAZIONI CLINICHE E STRATEGIA DIAGNOSTICA
2004
gli autori riortano il caso di una donna obesa affetta da cistoadenoma mucinoso gigante dell'ovaio. nonostante la presenza di una massa addominale voluminosa, la paziente non accusava sintomatologia degna di rilievo.
