Wu L, Zhan Y, Wang Y. Semaglutide May Ameliorate Fibrosis and Inhibit Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Intrauterine Adhesion Models. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:6196. [PMID: 38892384 PMCID: PMC11172622 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25116196] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2024] [Revised: 05/27/2024] [Accepted: 06/01/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of Semaglutide on intrauterine adhesions and discover new drugs for such adhesions. In this study, the cell model was simulated by TGF-β1-induced human endometrial epithelial cells, and the animal model was established through mechanical curettage and inflammatory stimulation. After co-culturing with TGF-β1 with or without different concentrations of Semaglutide for 48 h, cells were collected for RT-qPCR and Western blotting analyses. Three doses were subcutaneously injected into experimental mice once a day for two weeks, while the control group received sterile ddH2O. The serum and uterine tissues of the mice were collected. HE and Masson staining were used for the uterine histomorphological and pathological analyses. RT-qPCR and Western blotting were used for mRNA and protein expression analyses. Serum indicators were detected using ELISA kits. The results showed that Semaglutide significantly reduced the mRNA levels of fibrosis indicators ACTA2, COL1A1, and FN and inflammatory indicators TNF-α, IL-6, and NF-κB in the two models. Semaglutide improved endometrium morphology, increased the number of endometrial glands, and reduced collagen deposition in IUA mice. The results also showed that Semaglutide could inhibit vimentin, E-Cadherin, and N-Cadherin in the two models. In summary, Semaglutide can ameliorate fibrosis and inflammation of intrauterine adhesions as well as inhibit epithelial-mesenchymal transition in IUA models.

Drug Des Devel Ther 2023; 17:1313-1322. [PMID: 37152102 PMCID: PMC10162397 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s408584] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Accepted: 04/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of remazolam compared with propofol in patients who underwent laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion without the use of muscle relaxant agents during hysteroscopic surgery. Patients and Methods A total of 72 patients undergoing hysteroscopy with LMA insertion were assigned to two groups. The patients in the remazolam group received 0.3 μg/kg sufentanil, 0.3 mg/kg remazolam and 1.2 mg/kg remifentanil, whereas the patients in the propofol group received 0.3 μg/kg sufentanil, 2.0 mg/kg propofol and 1.2 mg/kg remifentanil for insertion of the LMA. The primary endpoint was the summed score of the insertion conditions. The secondary endpoints included hemodynamics, the duration of induction, the duration of insertion, tidal volume, plateau pressure and adverse events. Results No difference was identified between the propofol group and remazolam group in the median summed score [18.0 (18.0, 18.0), 18.0 (17.0, 18.0), respectively, P > 0.05]. The induction duration was significantly longer (P < 0.05) in the remazolam group than propofol group. The cost of dopamine (P < 0.05) was significantly lower in the remazolam group compared with the patients in the propofol group, while the plateau pressure (P < 0.05) and the incidence of transient mild laryngospasm (P < 0.05) were significantly higher in the remazolam group. No differences were identified between the two groups in terms of heart rate, tidal volume, injection pain or hiccups (P > 0.05). Conclusion Remazolam provided similar insertion conditions and better hemodynamic stability than propofol during LMA insertion without the use of muscle relaxant agents. However, a higher incidence of transient mild laryngospasm was found in the remazolam group, which should be considered.

Impact on fertility. Biochem Pharmacol 2022; 204:115244. [PMID: 36087639 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2022.115244] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2022] [Revised: 08/31/2022] [Accepted: 09/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
Women seeking improved fertility often undergo diagnostic hysteroscopy that could cause uterine thermal injury with unclear impact on uterine contraction, embryo implantation and fertility. We tested whether uterine thermal insult adversely affects myometrium function and contraction related receptors, channels, junctional proteins and remodeling enzymes. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were anesthetized, the left uterine horn was infused with 85 ℃ hot saline (thermal Insult) and the right horn was infused with 25℃ warm saline (control) for 3 min. After 7-days recovery, uterine strips were prepared for tissue histology and measurement of contraction, and mRNA and protein levels of oxytocin receptor, progesterone (P4) receptor A (PR-A), membrane K+ channel TREK-1, junctional protein connexin-43 (CX-43) and matrix metalloproteinases MMP-2 and MMP-9. Uterine tissue histology showed cellular swelling and inflammatory cell infiltration immediately following thermal insult, and recovery with no difference from control 7-days later. KCl (96 mM) and oxytocin (10-13-10-7 M) caused significant contraction that was not different in thermal insult vs control uterine strips. Pretreatment with P4 (10-5 M) for 1 h caused marked inhibition of KCl and oxytocin contraction that was insignificantly greater in thermal vs control uterus. RT-PCR showed decreases in oxytocin receptor, PR-A, TREK-1, CX-43, MMP-2 and MMP-9 mRNA in thermal vs control uterus. Western blots showed decreases in oxytocin receptor, no change in TREK-1 and increased PRA, CX-43, MMP-2, and MMP-9 protein levels in thermal vs control uterus. To assess the impact on fertility, female rats were housed with male rats, and on gestational day 19, the litter size, pup weight and crown-rump length, and placenta weight were not different in thermal vs control uterus. Thus, after thermal insult-induced immediate inflammation and reduced heat-sensitive mRNA expression, the uterus undergoes a recovery and adaptation process involving preserved oxytocin-induced contraction, P4 inhibition and TREK-1 channels. The uterus self-healing process appears to require improved PR-A signaling, intercellular communication via CX-43 and tissue remodeling by MMP-2 and MMP-9. The uterine thermal recovery processes could be essential for maintaining fertility and future pregnancy outcome.

Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:929096. [PMID: 36004375 PMCID: PMC9394211 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.929096] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Accepted: 07/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Backgrounds and aims Pain is the main reason for hysteroscopy failure. In day-surgical settings, hysteroscopy procedures are commonly performed with the patient under sedation. Hypoxia is the most common adverse event during sedation and can lead to severe adverse events. This study aimed to compare the incidence of hypoxia when using high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) with that when using regular nasal oxygen in patients undergoing hysteroscopy with sedation. Materials and methods In this single-center, prospective, randomized, single-blinded study, 960 female patients undergoing elective diagnostic or operative hysteroscopy were randomly enrolled into the following two groups: the regular nasal group [O2 (3–6 L/min) covered by an HFNO] and the HFNO group [O2 (30–60 L/min)] from September 2021 to December 2021. All women were sedated with propofol (1.5 mg/kg) and remifentanil (1.5 μg/kg) in the operating room. The primary outcome was the incidence of hypoxia (75% ≤ SpO2 < 90%, < 60 s). Results HFNO decreased the incidence of hypoxia (75% ≤ SpO2 < 90%, < 60 s), subclinical respiratory depression (90% ≤ SpO2 < 95%) and severe hypoxia (SpO2 < 75% for any duration or 75% ≤ SpO2 < 90% for ≥ 60 s) from 24.38 to 0.83%, from 11.25 to 1.46% and from 3.75 to 0%, respectively (P < 0.001). Conclusion In procedures conducted to treat female infertility, HFNO can reduce hypoxia during hysteroscopy in patients sedated with propofol, and it can prevent the occurrence of subclinical respiratory depression and severe hypoxia.

Abstract
Background Remimazolam besylate is a newer benzodiazepine with characteristics of quick onset of effects, short maintenance and recovery times without accumulation in tissues. This trial was conducted to confirm the efficacy and safety of remimazolam besylate versus propofol during hysteroscopy. Methods Patients undergoing hysteroscopy were randomly assigned to either the remimazolam (Group R) or the propofol group (Group P). Group R was administered an induction dose of 0.2 mg/kg and a maintenance dosage of 1.0 mg/kg/h. In Group P, propofol was started at 1.5–2.0 mg/kg and then maintained at 3.0–6.0 mg/kg/h. After remimazolam besylate or propofol induction, remifentanil was infused using a target-controlled infusion system with a target concentration of 1.5 ng/ml and titrated during the procedure. The incidence rates of injection pain, low oxygen saturation (SpO2) and adverse effects in both groups were compared. Results Eighty-two patients were included in this study. The incidence of adverse events in Group R (3.7%) was significantly lower than that in Group P (36.6%) (p < 0.001). The incidence of injection pain in Group P (80.5%) was much higher than that in Group R (2.4%) (p < 0.001). The incidence of other adverse events, such as low SpO2, bradycardia, and hypotension in Group R was lower than that in Group P (p < 0.05). Conclusions Remimazolam besylate proves to be a safer alternative for anesthesia during hysteroscopy. Moreover, adverse events caused by propofol, such as low SpO2 and injection pain, are largely avoided. Trial registration This study was approved by the Clinical Research Ethics Committee of Mengcheng County No. 1 People’s Hospital (2020MYL20003) and registered at http://www.chictr.org.cn (15/09/2020, ChiCTR-2000038252).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although dexmedetomidine has been used as either the anesthetic agent for light sedation or as an adjunct to other sedatives, no study has investigated the usefulness of dexmedetomidine as the main sedative agent for invasive and painful procedures. The purpose of this study was to compare the safety of dexmedetomidine-remifentanil and propofol-remifentanil during monitored anesthesia care (MAC) for hysteroscopy. METHODS Female patients undergoing hysteroscopy were randomly assigned to either the dexmedetomidine (group D) or the propofol group (group P). The study drug (0.6 ml/kg; dexmedetomidine 2 μg/ml or propofol 4 mg/ml) was loaded for 10 minutes followed by 0.1 to 0.5 ml/kg/hour to maintain a bispectral index of 60 to 80 during the procedure. In both groups, remifentanil was infused using a target-controlled-infusion system with a target concentration of 2 ng/ml and titrated during the procedure. The incidence rates of intraoperative respiratory depression in both groups were compared. Postoperative pain and patients satisfaction were also compared. RESULTS A total of 69 female patients were included in this study. Dexmedetomidine significantly decrease the incidence of respiratory depression compared with propofol (15/34 [44.1%] vs 5/35 [14.3%], P = .006, group P and D, respectively). Postoperative pain and patients satisfaction score did not differ between the groups. CONCLUSION The combination of dexmedetomidine-remifentanil can reduce the incidence of respiratory depression without increasing hemodynamic complications compared with propofol-remifentanil for MAC during hysteroscopy.

Abstract
Background Opioids are the most effective antinociceptive agents, they have undesirable side effects such as respiratory depressant and postoperative nausea and vomiting. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the antinociceptive efficacy of adjuvant magnesium sulphate to reduce intraoperative and postoperative opioids requirements and their related side effects during hysteroscopy. Methods Seventy patients scheduled for hysteroscopy were randomly divided into 2 groups. Patients in the magnesium group (Group M) received intravenous magnesium sulfate 50 mg/kg in 100 ml of isotonic saline over 15 min before anesthesia induction and then 15 mg/kg per hour by continuous intravenous infusion. Patients in the control group (Group C) received an equal volume of isotonic saline as placebo. All patients were anesthetized under a BIS guided monitored anesthesia care with propofol and fentanyl. Intraoperative hemodynamic variables were recorded and postoperative pain scores were assessed with verbal numerical rating scale (VNRS) 1 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, and 4 h after recovery of consciousness. The primary outcome of our study was total amount of intraoperative and postoperative analgesics administered. Results Postoperative serum magnesium concentrations in Group C were significantly decreased than preoperative levels (0.86 ± 0.06 to 0.80 ± 0.08 mmol/L, P = 0.001) while there was no statistical change in Group M (0.86 ± 0.07 to 0.89 ± 0.07 mmol/L, P = 0.129). Bradycardia did not occur in either group and the incidence of hypotension was comparable between the two groups. Total dose of fentanyl given to patients in Group M was less than the one administered to Group C [100 (75–150) vs 145 (75–175) μg, median (range); P < 0.001]. In addition, patients receiving magnesium displayed lower VNRS scores at 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, and 4 h postoperatively. Conclusions In hysteroscopy, adjuvant magnesium administration is beneficial to reduce intraoperative fentanyl requirement and postoperative pain without cardiovascular side effects. Our study indicates that if surgical patients have risk factors for hypomagnesemia, assessing and correcting magnesium level will be necessary.

Abstract
AIM To minimize the experienced pain during office hysteroscopy, a number of technical approaches and maneuvers are used. The aim of the study was to assess the effect of suprapubic pressure (SuPuP) applied during hysteroscopy. The impact of this maneuver on experienced pain (assessed by visual analog scale [VAS]) and duration of passage through the cervical canal was measured and compared to a reference group with no SuPuP. METHODS Hysteroscopy was performed in study subjects as part of their infertility work-up. Patients were randomized into two groups as part of a controlled trial. In group 1, SuPuP was applied while inserting the scope; in group 2, SuPuP was not applied. Pain experienced during the procedure was measured on a 0-10 VAS. Duration of passage through the cervical canal was measured by analyzing the video of the procedure. The effect of SuPuP was estimated by testing for between-groups differences in these outcomes. RESULTS The number of patients included the study was 60. Mean (SD) VAS score was 3.40 (1.276) in group 1 compared to 3.33 (0.802) in group 2 (P = 0.809). Mean (SD) time of passage through the cervical canal in group 1 was 30.5 (18.37) seconds compared to 43.0 (24.51) seconds in group 2 (P = 0.029). CONCLUSION Applying suprapubic pressure could facilitate the procedure by significantly shortening the duration of the passage through the cervical canal, but significantly not reduces the pain experienced during hysteroscopy. Further studies are to be undertaken to investigate the advantages of suprapubic pressure during office hysteroscopy.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to assess curative effect of hysteroscopic and laparoscopic myomectomy for type II submucous myomas between 3 and 5 cm in diameter and explore the optimal surgical indications. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed of those who underwent hysteroscopic or laparoscopic myomectomy from January 2008 to January 2013. The patients were divided into three subgroups according to the myomas diameter (namely, 30 mm ≤ myomas diameter <40 mm; 40 mm ≤ myomas diameter <50 mm; and myomas diameter ≥ 50 mm). Clinical data such as operation time, amount of bleeding, postoperative anal exsufflation time, hospital stay, and complications were collected. Results There was no significant difference regarding operation time and amount of bleeding in two groups. We found significant difference in hysteroscopic group (within-subgroup) difference regarding operation time and amount of bleeding, whereas no significant difference in the laparoscopic group, while significant differences between-subgroup differences regarding operation time. Complete removal of myoma was seen in all patients. Conclusions Both techniques are feasible for type II submucous myomas. Laparoscopic operation has higher advantages in type II submucous myomas of greater than 4 cm in diameter whereas hysteroscopic operation has higher advantages in type II submucous myomas of lower than 4 cm in diameter.

Abstract
Introduction: Nowadays minimally invasive techniques are a leading factors in medicine. According to this trend, hysteroscopy has been used in gynecology more and more frequently. Office hysteroscopy gives opportunity for a faster examination with less costs and strain for the patient. Aim: The aim of this work was to get familiar with the novel method. The author examined the level of pain during hysteroscopy performed for different indications with different types of instruments. In addition, the novel method invented for evaluating tubal patency was compared to the gold standard laparoscopy in 70 tubes. Method: Office hysteroscopy was performed in 400 cases for indications according to the traditional method. All examinations were performed in University of Debrecen, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in an outpatient setting. A 2.7 mm diameter optic with diagnostic or operative sheet was used. Hysteroscopies were scheduled between the 4th and 11th cycle day. For recording pain level VAS was used in 70 cases. Comparison of hysteroscopic evaluation of tubal patency to the laparoscopic method was studies in 70 cases. Results: It was found that office hysteroscopy can be performed in an outpatient setting, without anesthesia. Pain level showed no difference among subgroups (nulliparous, non-nulliparous, postmenopausal, diagnostic, operative) (mean±SD, 3.5±1.01; p=0.34). For the evaluation of tubal patency, office hysteroscopy showed 92.06% accuracy when compared to laparoscopy. Conclusions: Office hysteroscopy has several advantages over traditional method. This procedure is fast, it has less strain for the patient. The novel method, rather than traditional hysteroscopy, should be used in the work-up of infertility as well. Orv.

Hysteroscopic enucleation in toto of submucous type 2 myomas: long-term follow-up in women affected by menorrhagia. J Minim Invasive Gynecol 2013; 21:426-30. [PMID: 24291491 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmig.2013.11.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2013] [Revised: 11/11/2013] [Accepted: 11/17/2013] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To evaluate long-term efficacy of type 2 myoma enucleation in toto. DESIGN Longitudinal retrospective study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2). SETTING University obstetrics and gynecology clinic. PATIENTS One hundred twelve women with menorrhagia and at least 1 type 2 submucous myoma who underwent hysteroscopic myoma enucleation in toto. INTERVENTION Clinical long-term follow-up. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Success of the procedure and influence of myoma characteristics on recurrence of menorrhagia were evaluated. Mean (SD) follow-up was 58.4 (19.1) months. The success of the procedure was 88.4% (99 patients). Seventeen patients (15.2%) underwent a 2-step procedure. Among patients with relapsed menorrhagia, 10 (8.9%) underwent a repeat operation. Statistical analysis showed that number and diameter of myomas did not influence the outcome. Localization in the posterior wall of the uterus, compared with other sites, was associated with a higher percentage of resolution of menstrual symptoms (p = .03). There was no significant relationship between myomas features and risk of symptom recurrence during follow-up. The 2-step myomectomy was performed in patients with myomas >30 mm in diameter (p < .001). CONCLUSION Hysteroscopic enucleation in toto of type 2 myomas is a safe and effective technique in long-term management of premenopausal women with menorrhagia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluid overload is a major complication during surgical hysteroscopy and transurethral resection of the prostate. We evaluated the role of temperature on absorption of the irrigation solution (IRRSOL) in endoscopic surgery when warm fluids are used to minimize hypothermia. METHODS We measured the density and dynamic fluidity of five IRRSOLs (0.9% saline, Ringer's lactate, 1.5% glycine, 5% dextrose, and 2.5/0.54% sorbitol/mannitol) at three different temperatures (17°C, 27°C, and 37°C). Next, a hypothetical typical endoscopic resection surgery was defined as the reference: total IRRSOL absorption (750 ml), resection time (30 min), and IRRSOL temperature (17°C). On the basis of Poiseuille's law, we calculated new values for intravasation using the predetermined dynamic fluidity values at 27°C and 37°C to assess the influence of the IRRSOL temperature on intravascular absorption (under identical conditions) and then estimated the time to reach fluid overload at each temperature with both electrolyte and non-electrolyte IRRSOLs. RESULTS Density and fluidity varied with temperature. In these specific conditions, when the temperature of the IRRSOL was increased from 17°C to 37°C, the mean absorption rate was predicted to increase about 54% and the theoretical 'safe' duration of surgery decreased by ∼65%, for both electrolyte and non-electrolyte IRRSOLs. The reduction in the 'safe' duration of surgery averaged 21.1 min for non-electrolyte IRRSOL (reduced from 60.0 to 38.9 min) and 35.2 min when electrolyte IRRSOLs were used (reduced from 100.0 to 64.8 min). CONCLUSIONS Compared with cold fluids, isothermic IRRSOL may increase the risk of fluid overload because dynamic viscosity decreases at higher temperatures.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy of remifentanil-propofol with that of fentanyl-propofol for monitored anesthesia care during hysteroscopy. DESIGN Prospective, randomized study. SETTING Operating room and postanesthesia care unit of a university hospital. PATIENTS 30 ASA physical status I and II adult patients undergoing hysteroscopic procedures. INTERVENTIONS After propofol infusion, patients received a bolus of remifentanil (group R, 0.5 microg/kg) or fentanyl (group F, 1 microg/kg) 4 minutes before starting the procedure and then received a continuous infusion of remifentanil (group R, 0.05 microg/kg per min) or bolus doses of fentanyl (group F, 0.5 microg/kg). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Patients in group R had lower pain scores than patients in group F (0-0 vs 0-7, P < 0.05) and more stable blood pressures (74 +/- 15 vs 85 +/- 9 mmHg, P < 0.05) one minute after the start of the procedure. However, no differences were observed in other variables (recovery profiles and satisfaction scores). CONCLUSION Remifentanil seems to be a safe and effective analgesic adjunct for monitored anesthesia care of hysteroscopic surgery.

Abstract
Hysteroscopic guided or first generation endometrial ablation methods include transcervical endometrial resection, and rollerball and laser ablation. These techniques have been shown to be effective and safe alternatives to hysterectomy for dysfunctional uterine bleeding resulting in reduction in menstrual blood loss and dysmenorrhoea, correction of anaemia and improvement in quality of life. Compared with hysterectomy, treatment is associated with lower morbidity, shorter hospitalisation and faster recovery, and reduced treatment costs. As a result, the 1st generation ablation techniques are recognized as the "gold standard" ablation methods. There are many similarities between the three techniques with respect to surgical principles and effectiveness. Certainly, menstrual improvement and patient satisfaction are similar with all three methods. In contrast, the complication profile of the three techniques is different, but surgical experience is arguably a much more important arbiter of patient safety than the technique itself.

Abstract
Heavy menstrual bleeding is the predominant complaint in women with abnormal uterine bleeding. Treatment options are drug therapy, and first- and second-generation endometrial resection. Many women will subsequently have a hysterectomy. Uterine fibroids are the most common solid pelvic tumours in women, and although many fibroids seem to cause no symptoms, they can have serious adverse effects and impact on quality of life. As women postpone having children, gynaecologists will have to manage fibroids and polyps in a conservative manner. The past decade has witnessed the development of highly sophisticated diagnostic and therapeutic technology for women suffering from menorrhagia, fibroids and polyps, including minimally invasive uterine therapy. The tools currently at our disposal permit greater management flexibility, which must be tailored to the individual clinical situation. This chapter reviews the evidence-based approach and minimally invasive therapy.
