The surgical hysteroscopy became popular as a minimally invasive approach to interuterine changes. Dilatation is a real challenge during surgical hyseroscopy especially in first delivery patients, women in menopause and women with cervical stenosis. Apart from this, some long hysteroscopy operations such as myomectomy require adequate dilatation in order to facilitate the multiple insertions and drawing pulling of the resectoscope. Another technical problem is the need for a significant degree of cervical dilatation, as well as softening of the cervix, which will allow the extraction of the excised endometrial polyps or myomatose parts. Mysoprostol is analogous to prostaglandin El, which is commonly used in obstetrics to induce an abortion and birth, as well as after birth to control the excessive vaginal bleeding. Its use in gynecology is limited. In our study it is of vital importance. The vaginal administration of MysoproStol before surgical hysteroscopy facilitates dilatation. The eased hysteroscopy minimizes cervical complications. On the other hand, the natural dilatators Laminaria, made of Laminariajaponica orLaminaria Digitata sticks, are attractive natural substances which can cause dilatation with minimally observed systemic side effects. They have shown efficient results during the cervical preparation before surgical hysteroscopy. Despite of that, there are no comparative studies on the efficiency of the two methods for cervical preparation. The aim of this Study is to compare the efficacy of internally vaginal Mysoprostol against endocervical dilatators Laminaria before surmical hvSterosconv in certain cases.

Cardiomyopathy II: Dilated Cardiomyopathy

Dilated cardiomyopathy, or DCM, is a progressive myocardial disorder characterized by ventricular chamber dilation and contractile dysfunction.EtiologyVarious factors can cause DCM, including hypertension and heavy alcohol intake, which contribute to the weakening and enlargement of the heart muscle. Viral infections, such as Coxsackievirus B, adenoviruses, and influenza, can lead to DCM by causing inflammation and damage to heart tissue. Certain chemotherapeutic agents, including daunorubicin,...

Preparation of Epoxides03:00

Preparation of Epoxides

Overview
Epoxides result from alkene oxidation, which can be achieved by a) air, b) peroxy acids, c) hypochlorous acids, and d) halohydrin cyclization.
Epoxidation with Peroxy Acids
Epoxidation of alkenes via oxidation with peroxy acids involves the conversion of a carbon–carbon double bond to an epoxide using the oxidizing agent meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid, commonly known as MCPBA. Since the O–O bond of peroxy acids is very weak, the addition of electrophilic oxygen of peroxy acids to...

Preparation of Amides01:29

Preparation of Amides

Amides are synthesized by treating carboxylic acids with amines in the presence of dehydrating agents like dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC).
The DCC-promoted synthesis of amides begins with the protonation of DCC by carboxylic acid. The protonation makes it a better acceptor. Next, the addition of carboxylate to the protonated carbodiimide gives a reactive acylating agent.
Subsequently, the amine acts as a nucleophile that attacks the acylating agent to form a tetrahedral intermediate. In the...

Preparation of Nitriles01:12

Preparation of Nitriles

One of the common methods to prepare nitriles is the dehydration of amides. This method requires strong dehydrating agents like phosphorous pentoxide or boiling acetic anhydride for converting amides to nitriles. Another reagent namely, thionyl chloride also accomplishes the dehydration of amides, where amide acts as a nucleophile. The first step of the mechanism involves the nucleophilic attack by the amide on the thionyl chloride to form an intermediate. In the next step, the electron pairs...

Preparation and Reactions of Thiols

Thiols are prepared using the hydrosulfide anion as a nucleophile in a nucleophilic substitution reaction with alkyl halides. For instance, bromobutane reacts with sodium hydrosulfide to give butanethiol.

Preparation of Acid Anhydrides

One of the methods for preparing symmetrical or unsymmetrical acid anhydrides involves the treatment of acid chlorides with the sodium salt of carboxylic acids. The reaction proceeds via a nucleophilic acyl substitution.
The carboxylate ion acts as a nucleophile that attacks the carbonyl carbon of the acid chloride to form a tetrahedral intermediate. Subsequently, the re-formation of the carbonyl group with the loss of the chloride ion as a leaving group leads to the formation of an acid...
