In this study we aimed to investigate the role of adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity in the prediction of EP. Forty-one patients with unruptured ectopic pregnancy comprised the case group and forty-two first trimester pregnant women with shown foetal heart beating in ultrasound comprised the control group. The mean ADA level in EP (10.9 ± 3.0 IU/L) was higher than that in control group (9.2 ± 3.6 IU/L) (p = 0.018). Receiver operating characteristics or ROC curve identified ADA value of 10.95 IU/L as optimal threshold for the prediction of EP with 56% sensitivity and 67% specificity. High ADA levels are valuable in the early diagnosis of EP. However more comprehensive studies are required.

The aim of this experimental study was to investigate the effects of the antioxidant resveratrol (3,5,4'-o-trihydroxystilbene) on adhesion formation in a rat uterine horn adhesion model. Thirty Wistar-Albino female rats were randomly divided into three groups with equal numbers. In Group A, 5.9 mg/kg/day resveratrol was applied by the orogastric route for 10 days before and 20 days after surgery. In Group B, resveratrol was given only for 20 days after surgery. In the control group, no drug was applied before or after surgery. A uterine serosal injury was created using a standard technique after laparotomy in all rats. All animals were sacrificed 3 weeks after surgery and intrapelvic adhesions determined macroscopically and microscopically. Adhesion formation, total adhesion score and the severity of adhesions were all significantly lower in both resveratrol treatment groups than in the control group (p < 0.05). Notably, the severity of adhesions was much less in Group A in which the rats received resveratrol before and after surgical operation. This study suggests that 5 ± 1 mg/kg/day perioperative resveratrol administration is an effective strategy for the prevention of postoperative peritoneal adhesion formation after pelvic surgery in a rat model.
