Endometriosis in pregnant and non-pregnant women at tubal sterilization

Moen, Mette Haase, Muus, Karen Marie·1991·Human Reproduction

Abstract

The prevalence of endometriosis was investigated in 208 women at the time of laparoscopic tubal sterilization. In 101 women who were in the first trimester of pregnancy, 16% endometriosis was found. In 107 non-pregnant women, 22% endometriosis was detected. Endometriosis in the pregnant women showed more superficial, non-pigmented, gland-like lesions than in the non-pregnant group. In 23% of the endometriotic lesions from pregnant women, no decidualization was found. No special risk factors for developing endometriosis were found.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
