Summary Alcohol consumption has long been shown to affect both fetal health and pregnancy. In this study, antral follicle count, maturation level of oocytes including morphological assessment and number of metaphase I (MI), metaphase II (MII) and germinal vesicle (GV) stage oocytes obtained from young women (age < 30 years old) with or without alcohol consumption were investigated. In total, 20 healthy women who were social drinkers and 36 healthy women who do not consume alcohol were involved in this study. Women in both study and control groups were undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation. The antral follicle count and the number and quality of the oocytes retrieved were evaluated and recorded. In total, 635 antral follicles, 1098 follicles and 1014 oocytes with 820 MII, 72 MI and 78 GV stage oocytes were collected from the social drinkers. In the control group, 628 antral follicles, 1136 follicles and 1085 oocytes with 838 MII, 93 MI and 102 GV stage oocytes were evaluated. The results of this study showed that the antral follicle count was very similar in both groups. The number of oocytes and MII stage oocytes was slightly higher in the control group, although it was not a significant difference. This study showed that although the consumption of alcohol may have adverse effects post-implantation, it may not have a solid effect during oogenesis in young women. The results of this study are especially important in clinical settings as some women who are social drinkers undergo in vitro fertilization treatments.

Abstract. Yuliawati D, Astuti WW, Yuniarti F. 2020. Effects of Black Soy phytoestrogens (Glycine soja) on elevated levels of estradiol in Rat Blood (Rattus norvegicus) ovariectomy. Nusantara Bioscience 12: 55-58. Menopause is the transition from productive to non-productive times due to reduced estrogen and progesterone and has an impact on improving cardiovascular problems. The fulfillment of estrogen needs in menopause can use a type of phytoestrogens from black soybeans. The purpose of research is to prove the administration of black soy extract (Glycine soja) can increase the levels of estradiol in the rat blood (Rattus norvegicus) ovariectomy. Design research uses post-test only control group design. Twenty-five female rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (n = 5 tails per group), negative controls, positive and 3 treatments. Ovariectomy was performed in a group of positive controls and treatment. Thirty-day post ovariectomy rats were given appropriate group treatment (negative control, positive, and treatment with the administration of black soy extract dose of 50, 100, 150 mg/200  g/day for 30 days). The estradiol test used the Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Anova's test results with a significant degree of α = 0.05 established that the p-value of 0.000 was less than α = 0.05, meaning there was a significant effect of giving black soy extract on increased levels of estradiol in the rat blood ovariectomy. Post - Hoc Tukey testing shows increased the highest estradiol levels in the dose treatment group 100 mg/200  g/day. This research proves that the administration of black soy extract (Glycine soja) can increase the levels of estradiol in the rat blood (Rattus norvegicus) ovariectomy.

The long-term use of Depo Medroxy Progesterone Acetate (DMPA) can cause hypertension. Hypertension is often related to high production of endothelin-1 in the blood. Mechanism of DMPA can cause hypertension is still unclear. Therefore, this study aims to find out the effect of long-term use of DMPA on ET-1 production. This research designed was a true experiment with Posttest Only Control Group Design conducted on 12 female wistar (Rattus norvegicus) strain rats. The mice in the control group were not treated while the treatment group was injected with DMPA 2.7 mg/ week for 8 weeks. Endothelin 1 plasma was assessed at 4 and 8 weeks using ELISA method. The result of this research showed that in the 4th week, ET-1 significantly increase (p = 0.003) in the treatment group (130.38 ± 4.03) compared to the control group (121.64 ± 3.76). Whereas at week 8, there was a tendency to increase ET-1 in the treatment group (132.16 ± 8.97) compared to the control group (126.77 ± 18.11), but not significant (p = 0.528). From the results of this study can be concluded that the long-term use of DMPA in female mice can increase plasma levels of endothelin-1. Keywords: longterm DMPA; estrogen decrease; endotheline- 1 ABSTRAK Penggunaan Depo Medroxy Progesterone Acetate (DMPA) dalam jangka panjang diketahui dapat menimbulkan hipertensi. Hipertensi sering dikaitkan dengan tingginya produksi endotelin-1 dalam darah. Mekanisime DMPA dapat menyebabkan hipertensi masih belum jelas. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat pengaruh penggunaan DMPA jangka panjang terhadap produksi ET-1. Penelitian ini merupakan true experiment dengan desain penelitian Posttest Only Control Group Design yang dilakukan pada 12 ekor tikus galur wistar (Rattus Norvegicus) betina. Tikus pada grup kontrol tidak diberi perlakuan sedangkan grup perlakuan diinjeksi DMPA 2,7 mg/minggu selama 8 minggu. Plasma endotelin 1 diperiksa pada minggu ke-4 dan minggu ke-8 dengan metode ELISA. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pada minggu ke-4, ET-1 mengalami kenaikan (p=0.003) pada grup perlakuan (130.38± 4.03) dibandingkan grup control (121.64 ± 3.76). Sedangkan pada minggu ke-8, terjadi kecederungan peningkatan ET-1 pada grup perlakuan (132.16 ± 8.97) dibandingkan grup kontrol (126.77 ± 18.11), namun tidak signifikan (p=0.528). Dari hasil penelitian tersebut dapat disimpukan bahwa pemberian DMPA jangka panjang pada tikus betina dapat meningkatkan kadar plasma endotelin 1. Kata kunci: DMPA jangka panjang; penurunan estrogen; endotelin 1

Background: The objective of the present study was to establish the role of AFC as a marker of ovarian reserve in fertility-proven and in sub-fertile Indian women, and to establish the baseline cut-off AFC values for Indian women.Methods: This is an Observational Case-Control type of study. Test subjects (n=30, age range 20-35 years) were selected randomly from all the women coming to our Out-Patient Department with Primary Infertility. Healthy female volunteers (n=30, age range 20-35years) were recruited from the local population. Statistics: Student t test was applied to compare the mean Antral Follicle count between the case and control group. Pearson correlation test was applied to assess the correlation between age and AFC for case and control group.Results: The results of the study show that there is a significant difference between the number of antral follicles between fertile and infertile women (p < 0.001). The baseline cut-off for successful pregnancy was established as an AFC of 12. There exists negative correlation (r = -0.249) between age and AFC case group indicating as the age increases AFC decreases.Conclusions: The findings from this study help in strengthening the idea that AFC serves as a marker for ovarian reserve. Our observation indicates that the number of antral follicles is lower in the subfertile patients as compared to the fertile group (in all age groups), in view of the significantly lower median AFC in women of the former group (P < 0.001).
