Study on Clinical Value of Vitamin D in Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion
Vitamin D DeficiencyRecurrent Spontaneous AbortionThe observational study is to compare vitamin D deficiency and related indicators among different spontaneous abortions in describe female reproductive health.The main question aim to answer is: the possible pathogenesis of recurrent spontaneous abortion caused by vitamin D. Participants, who visit the RSA specialty clinic, will provide medical history information, regularly exam based on the condition, following up on pregnancy status.Participants will be asked to supply vitamin D preparation and do moderate exercise outdoors, comparing the effect after treatment.

Expression of EPK in Recurrent Miscarriage
Recurrent MiscarriageThe present study is based on hypotheses that some as yet unknown genetic factors may result in recurrent miscarriage (RM). Consequently, the main aim of this study was to gain new information about the underlying genetic causes of RM in the Egyptian population and to investigate the expression of ERK and p-ERK protein in human placenta and their corresponding tissue, to assess the significance of MAPK signal pathway in progression of recurrent miscarriage and PI3K-Akt Pathway.
Use of Platelet Indices for Prediction of Recurrent Miscarriage
Recurrent MiscarriagePlatelet indices might be a marker for platelet activation, and thus could predict thrombosis. This might be the cause in some cases of recurrent miscarriage. This study aims to evaluate the use of platelet indices -as a simple test- to predict recurrent miscarriage.
Changes in Pregnancy in Egyptian Women With History of Recurrent Miscarriage
Polycystic Ovary SyndromeIntroduction: Elevated levels of androgen and insulin-resistant have been implicated in recurrent miscarriage in women with PCOS. Published data are scarce on androgen level and cervical length of women with and without PCOS and a history of miscarriage. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the levels of testosterone (TT), Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG), Dehyroepiandrostenedione (DHEA) and cervical length in Egyptian women with and without history PCOS and history of RM during pregnancy . Method: Pregnant women with (n=38) and without (n=40) PCOS and history of recurrent miscarriages were recruited from the Obstetrics Department, Alagoza Hospital, Cairo, Egypt. Healthy pregnant women without PCOS and history of RM (n=40, HC) were also recruited. TT, SHBG,DHEA and Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) level and cervical length were assessed at first, second and the third trimester or at the start of miscarriage
Relation Between Subclinical Hypothyroidism and Outcome of Pregnancy
AbortionSpontaneous2 moreStudies have demonstrated a relationship between subclinical hypothyroidism and obstetrics complications like preterm delivery, pre-eclampsia, placental abruption and stillbirth. Subclinical hypothyroidism and positive thyroperoxidase antibodies (TPOab) may increase the risk of early spontaneous abortion before 12 weeks of gestation. But there is not a consensus if the prevalence of TPOab should be treated before and during pregnancy when the level of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) is normal. Thyroid hormones are regulators of the mitochondrial activity and our research group has previously shown that subclinical hypothyroidism affects mitochondrial activity. The hypothesis: Subclinical hypothyroidism causes early spontaneous abortion and or complications in pregnancy like pre-eclampsia because of mitochondrial dysfunction

Hydroxychloroquine and Unexplained Recurrent Miscarriage
HydroxychloroquineRecurrent miscarriage affects women of childbearing age worldwide. Vascular endothelial dysfunction and immunological impairment are associated with both recurrent miscarriage and preeclampsia. To date, there is no effective or optimal therapeutic approach for these conditions. Hydroxychloroquine has endothelial protective action via ant diabetic, lipid lowering, antioxidant effects or direct endothelial protection. Hydroxychloroquine is an antimalarial and immunomodulatory agent. In pregnancy, hydroxychloroquine is prescribed for inflammatory conditions associated with adverse perinatal outcomes such as systemic lupus erythematosus, antiphospholipid syndrome and placental inflammatory lesions such as chronic histiocytic intervillositis, hydroxychloroquine has therapeutic potential to improve placental function in pregnancies associated with heightened inflammation.
Serum Kisspeptin: a Predictive Marker of Miscarriage or Not?
MiscarriageThis is a prospective observational study. Eligible women undergo ART treatment in our centre will be recruited for the study and each woman will only be included in the study once. Informed written consent will be obtained. Blood serum for hCG level is performed 14 days after the embryo transfer i.e. week 4. If the serum hCG level is >10IU/L, the women are considered pregnant and blood will be saved and checked for kisspeptin level, Another blood test is repeated 1 week later i.e. week 5. A transvaginal ultrasound and blood test will be performed 1 week later i.e. week 6 to confirm the fetal viability and the number of gestational sacs and locate the pregnancy. Blood for hCG and kisspeptin levels are checked at weeks, 4, 5 and 6. Ultrasound will be performed at gestational 8 weeks and 11 weeks. They will be referred for antenatal care when the pregnancy is confirmed on-going at 11 weeks. The purpose is to determine whether serum kisspeptin level in women who conceive in IVF is associated with an increased risk in first trimester miscarriage and compare with serum hCG level in the prediction of the first trimester miscarriage.
