Summary :
⁣Failure rate of transvaginal cerclage (TVC) is 13%.Pregnancies will deliver pre-viable infants despite this intervention.Patients who fail Trancervical cerclages are candidates for abdominal assisted cerclages. Indicarions of transabdominal cerclages are two or more failed TVC or if TVC is impossible due to extreme shortening, scarring or laceration of the cervix.No randomized control trials comparing preconception to early pregnancy. when comparing open to laparoscopic approach, The results demonstrated that there was no differencein the rates of thirdtrimester delivery and live birth.The use of cerclage, either through vaginal or abdominal routes, to assist in delaying pre-term delivery among select women with cervical insufficiency may be beneficial, but can also carry significant morbidity. Robotic-assisted transabdominal cervical cerclage (RoboTAC) in the non-pregnant patient has the ability to not only reduce associated morbidity, but also offer the same benefits as the more traditional laparotomy and laparoscopic approaches, while removing the risk to an in situ fetus.The efficacy of RoboTAC compared with open surgical and standard laparoscopic procedures has not been subjected to randomised prospective comparison. If research can establish that the RoboTAC procedure is as eff ective as a laparotomy TAC, but with less risks, it may make the use of the TAC procedure in women at high risk of a preterm delivery much more reasonable, and possibly preferable to other available options. I present robotic assisted abdominal cerclages techniques placed before conception, after conception and in endometriosis.

Summary :
⁣During the fetal period, the embryonal premature central nervous system (CNS) structure rapidly develops into a mature structure with gyral formation. Within this rapid development, various developmental disorders and insults result in multiple phenotypes of fetal CNS abnormalities. For understanding fetal CNS diseases, basic knowledge of the development of the central nervous system is essential. Malformations of cortical development (MCD) are disorders of cerebral cortex formation caused by various genetic mutations, infections, vascular abnormalities, or metabolic abnormalities. MCD is associated with abnormal cortical structure, ectopic gray matter, odd brain size. It is hard to depict cortical development and its disorder by ultrasonography during the fetal period. The phenotype of cortical development does not appear until eight months of gestation when gyrus/sulcus formation becomes apparent. Early detection of impaired cell migration and cortical maldevelopment is a challenge in the field of prenatal fetal neuroimaging. However, longitudinal neuroimaging throughout the embryological and fetal period, combined with the precise genetic investigation, fetal MCD has been diagnosed due to the development of neuroimaging and the remarkable development of next-generation sequencing. Perhaps shortly, fetal MCD diagnosis will be possible more accurately and earlier. The combination of molecular genetics and detailed neurosonography has established ‘Neurosonogenetics,’ a new field in multidisciplinary prenatal neurology, for prompt prenatal/postnatal management, care, prevention, and treatment in fetal and pediatric neurology.

Summary :
⁣A tubo-ovarian abscess (TOA) is an inflammatory mass involving the fallopian tube, ovary, and occasionally adjacent viscera. TOA carries a high morbidity and mortality rate of 5-10% when assocaited with severe sepsis. It is a common acute gynaecological presentation for which there are no national guidelines to guide clinical decision making. Management varies based on clinical presentation and experience of the clinician, and is based on IV antibiotics (conservative management), image guided drainage, or surgical options. In recent years, the laparoscopic approach to surgical intervention has gained favour due to reduced morbidity and quicker recovery time.

Summary :
⁣Pre-eclampsia is associated with an increased risk of future cardiovascular disease. Maladaptive placentation or malperfusion, as well as predisposing cardiovascular or metabolic risk for endothelial dysfunction, contribute to the systemic inflammatory response that establishes the origins of the disease. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between placental size and cardiovascular risk when assessed at six months postpartum in women who experienced pre-eclampsia.⁣Maternal clinical and biochemical cardiovascular risk factors were used to categorize preeclamptic women into high vs. low lifetime cardiovascular disease risk profiles at six months postpartum. A multivariable logistic regression model was then used to identify the association between placental weight to birth weight ratio and high lifetime cardiovascular disease risk, adjusting for maternal age, pre-pregnancy BMI, and severity of pre-eclampsia. A p-value of < 0.05 was deemed statistically significant.

For my thesis, I studied the relationship between placental morphology and underlying cardiovascular risk factors in women diagnosed with pre-eclampsia. Our study identified a powerful screening tool for cardiovascular risk at the time of delivery, allowing clinicians to initiate postpartum interventions as most of these women are dealing with preventable health challenges. My research/volunteer experiences have taught me the importance of complementing the medical profession with patient-centered care by advocating for the needs of individuals who are unable to afford or access the healthcare they deserve.

Summary :
⁣A total of 12RCTs with 2028 women (hysterectomy: n=977 women vs E:A/R: n = 1051 women) were included. Hysterectomy was compared with only endometrial ablation in five studies and only endometrial resection in five studies and both ablation and resection in two studies. Meta-analysis found that women in the hysterectomy group were more likely to show patient-reported and objective outcomes improving in HMB comparing with EA/R (risk ratio(RR)0.75, 95%CI:0.71,0.79) and (MD44.00, 95%CI:36.09,51.91)respectively. Patient-satisfaction was higher after hysterectomy up-to 2-years follow-up, (RR:0.90, 95%CI:0.86,0.94) but this effect was absent with longer term followup. EA/R had lower risk of adverse-outcomes for sepsis (RR:0.03, 95%CI:0.00,0.56), wound infection (RR:0.05, 95%CI:0.01,0.28) and urinary tract infection (RR:0.20,95%CI:0.10, 0.42) but higher risk of fluid-overload (RR:7.80,95%CI:2.16,28.16) and perforation (RR:5.42,95%CI:1.25,23.45).

Summary :
⁣Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) is defined as a disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). It was originally reported to the World Health Organization (WHO) on 31 December 2019. On 30 January 2020, the WHO declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global health emergency.We conducted a prospective study that included SARS-COV2 positive pregnant women with various forms of severity. The pregnant women included in this study were hospitalized in the Bucur Maternity, Saint John Clinical Hospital Bucharest.Pregnant women with SARS Cov 2 infection are at risk of developing more severe forms than non-pregnant women, which negatively influences the mother’s condition and consequently the fetus. The most common complications can be premature birth, coagulation pathology, hypertensive diseases. SARS COV2 infection is transmitted rarely upwards and treatment for both mothers and children is still under discussion.

Summary :
⁣Nanoconfined fluids find applications in life science and nanotechnology, such as the purification of fluids forced through nanoporous carbon materials, nanolubrication, isotope separation in nuclear power technology, or the filtration through nanomembranes of complex mixtures for water disinfection and desalination. Fluids under nanoconfinement have been studied extensively by experiments and numerical simulations in various geometries. Although confinement effects–e.g., layering–are well known for fluids, contradictory results are strongly debated. It is, therefore, worth asking how these varieties of results depend on the details of the fluid or the geometry. We deepen this question and ask which property of water in a graphene nanopore is unique and which, instead, is shared with other liquids, e.g., argon-like or anomalous, such as liquid metals, or solutions of proteins. We find that at the sub-nanometre scale, water shows a unique behaviour. Water becomes more diffusive than bulk when decreasing the pore size from 0.95 nm to 0.80 nm, whereas the isotropic liquids show an oscillating and an overall decreasing diffusion coefficient.

Summary :
⁣Graphene is the paradigm of membranes; it is the stiffest material known so far and it is extremely bendable due to its one atom thickness. As a consequence free-standing graphene exhibit ripples that has major effects on its elastic properties. I will briefly summarize three experiments performed in our group where the influence of rippling is essential to address the results. Firstly, we observed that atomic vacancies lessen the negative thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) of free-standing graphene. We also observed an increase of the Young’s modulus with global applied strain and with the introduction of small density defects that we attributed to the decrease of rippling. The results can be qualitatively explained in the framework of the elastic theory of membranes that predicts a reduction of the Young’s modulus, an increase of the bending rigidity and a decrease of the area with the rippling. However, our results diverge quantitatively from the theoretical predictions: the experiments consistently indicate that only the rippling with wavelengths between 5 and 10 nm influences the mechanics of graphene. The rippling responsible of the negative TEC and anomalous elasticity is thought to be dynamic, i.e. flexural phonons. However, flexural phonons with these wavelengths should have minor effects on the mechanics of graphene, therefore other mechanisms must be considered to address our observations. We propose static ripples as one of the key elements to correctly understand the thermomechanics of graphene and suggest that rippling arises naturally due to a competition of symmetry breaking and anharmonic fluctuations.

Summary :
⁣Room-temperature Fermi−Dirac electron thermal excitation in conventional threedimensional (3D) or twodimensional (2D) semiconductors generates hot electrons with a relatively long thermal tail in energy distribution. These hot electrons set a fundamental obstacle known as the “Boltzmann tyranny” that limits the subthreshold swing (SS) and therefore the minimum power consumption of 3D and 2D fieldeffect transistors (FETs). In this talk, a graphene (Gr)-enabled cold electron injection will be discussed, where the Gr acts as the Dirac source to provide the cold electrons with a localized electron density distribution and a short thermal tail at room temperature. These cold electrons correspond to an electronic refrigeration effect with an effective electron temperature of ∼145 K in the monolayer MoS2, which enables the transport factor lowering and thus the steep-slope switching (across for three decades with a minimum SS of 29 mV/decade at room temperature) for a monolayer MoS2 FET. Especially, a record high sub-60-mV/ decade current density (over 1 μA/μm) can be achieved compared to conventional steep-slope technologies such as tunneling FETs or negative capacitance FETs using 2D or 3D channel materials. Our work demonstrates the potential of a 2D Dirac-source cold electron transistor as a steep-slope transistor concept for future energyefficient nanoelectronics

Summary :
⁣This talk covers my recent work in the synthesis and structural design of functional nanographenes lithium ion batteries. We attempted a multi-step bottom-up organic synthesis of a series of 2D and 3D nanographenes with various functional groups attached to the edge of the graphene basil planes. The optimized electronic structure and facilitated electron transfer have led to energy storage ten times the capacity of graphite, especially at extremely high current density, suggesting that the optimal design of conjugated nanographenes is promising for next generation lithium ion batteries with superior energy storage efficiency and rate capability.

Summary :
⁣Why are women who face poor prognoses for success in assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment choosing to pursue procedures using their own eggs, despite receiving information that their chances of success are low? Cross-sectional study based on an anonymous questionnaire distributed to women aged between 43 and 45 years, undergoing ART using their own oocytes, at public outpatient fertility clinics and public in-hospital IVF units in Israel. The main outcome measure was personal estimation of chance to achieve a live birth after the current ART treatment cycle and the cumulative estimated rate after all the treatment cycles the patient intended to undergo. Response rate was 70.0%, with 91 participants of mean age 43.8 ± 0.7 years. Participants estimated their delivery rates after the next ART treatment cycle at 49.0 ± 31.8% (response rate 93.4%) and their cumulative delivery rates after all the ART treatments they would undergo at 57.7 ± 36.3% (response rate 90.1%). This is significantly higher than the predicted success rates of 5% and 15%, respectively (both P < 0.001), which are based on national register data. Nearly one-half of patients rated themselves as having a better than average chance of conception (47.3%). Women do not pursue futile treatments because they lack information. Despite being informed of the low success rates of conception using ART treatments, many patients of advanced maternal age have unrealistically high expectations from ART, essentially ignoring their estimated prognosis when deciding on treatment continuation. Future work should examine the psychological reasons behind continuing futile fertility treatments.

Summary :
⁣Superovulation is a drug-induced method to enable multiple ovulation per menstrual cycle and key component towards a successful IVF cycle. Although there are the general guidelines for dosage, the dose is not optimized for each patient, and complications, such as overstimulation, can occur. To overcome the shortcomings of this general system, a mathematical procedure and a decision support tool is developed which can provide a customized model of this stage regarding the size distribution of follicles obtained per cycle as a function of the chemical interactions of the drugs used and the conditions imposed on the patient during the cycle. Uncertainty and risk are modeled and included in optimal drug dosage decisions. This paper describes the theory, model, the optimal control procedure, and the decision support tool for improving outcomes of IVF treatment for all the four protocols used in real practice. The validation of the procedure is performed using clinical data from more than 100 patients previously undergone IVF cycles. Customized patientspecific model parameters are obtained by using initial two-day data for each patient and validated. The models are then used for predicting the customized optimal drug dosage for each patient. Two clinical trials were conducted in India. The results from the trials show that the dosage predicted by using the model is 40% less than the suggestion made by the IVF clinicians. The testing and monitoring requirements for patients using optimized drug dosage is reduced by 72%.
