    Abstract Expression of olfactory receptors (ORs) in non-olfactory tissues has been widely reported over the last 20 years. Olfactory marker protein (OMP) is highly expressed in mature olfactory sensory neurons (mOSNs) of the olfactory epithelium. It is involved in the olfactory signal transduction pathway, which is mediated by well-conserved components, including ORs, olfactory G protein (Golf), and adenylyl cyclase 3 (AC3). OMP is widely expressed in non-olfactory tissues with an apparent preference for motile cells. We hypothesized that OMP is expressed in compartment-specific locations and co-localize with an OR, Golf, and AC3 in rat epididymal and human-ejaculated spermatozoa. We used immunocytochemistry to examine the expression patterns of OMP and OR6B2 (human OR, served as positive olfactory control) in experimentally induced modes of activation and determine whether there are any observable differences in proteins expression during the post-ejaculatory stages of spermatozoal functional maturation. We found that OMP was expressed in compartment-specific locations in human and rat spermatozoa. OMP was co-expressed with Golf and AC3 in rat spermatozoa and with OR6B2 in all three modes of activation (control, activated, and hyperactivated), and the mode of activation changed the co-expression pattern in acrosomal-reacted human spermatozoa. These observations suggest that OMP expression is a reliable indicator of OR-mediated chemoreception, may be used to identify ectopically expressed ORs, and could participate in second messenger signaling cascades that mediate fertility.

    Abstract Objective: To describe the findings of a national inquiry into cases of misdiagnosis of miscarriage in the Republic of Ireland and to report the results of implementation of the findings of the inquiry, including investment in new equipment and training, new national guidelines, and rigorous annual audit of early pregnancy units.
    Design: Narrative description of the inquiry and its findings and results of a subsequent audit.
    Setting: Not applicable.
    Patient(s): Women with problems of bleeding and/or pain in early pregnancy who were erroneously diagnosed as having a nonviable intrauterine pregnancy.
    Intervention(s): After two cases of misdiagnosis of miscarriage that were widely reported in the Republic of Ireland in June 2010, a Miscarriage Misdiagnosis Review Team was commissioned by the Irish Health Service Executive (HSE) to undertake a national review of other possible cases of misdiagnosis of miscarriage. The Review Team made a series of recommendations that were subsequently implemented in full. The results of the implementation of the findings of the Review Team have been the subject of three annual audits across the country.
    Main outcome measure(s): The main outcome measure was the occurrence of misdiagnosis of miscarriage in the Republic of Ireland before and after implementation of the findings of the Review Team.
    Result(s): Twenty-four confirmed cases of misdiagnosis of miscarriage were identified, mostly occurring between 2005 and 2010. Analysis led to a series of recommendations by the Review Team, which were implemented in full by the HSE. Over € 3 million was provided to fund implementation; 26 high-quality gynecological ultrasound machines were purchased to reequip 19 units involved in provision of care to women with suspected miscarriage. There was further allocation of resources for new equipment and improvement in the management and staffing of early pregnancy units across Ireland, with each center now having a dedicated and properly staffed Early Pregnancy Assessment Unit. A national training program in the management of early pregnancy problems has been implemented, along with regular national meetings to discuss early pregnancy problems. National clinical guidelines on the diagnosis and management of miscarriage for implementation have been distributed to all hospitals.
    Conclusion(s): No cases of miscarriage misdiagnosis were identified in any of the three annual audits, suggesting that implementation of the findings of the review has been successful. We believe that this is the first report of national change in practice leading to improvement in clinical outcomes in the management of suspected miscarriage.

    Abstract Aims: The objective of this study was to provide follow-up data on four-dimensional ultrasound (4DUS) morphometry for women having botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) treatment of pelvic floor tension myalgia (PFTM).
    Materials and methods: A prospective cohort study was performed from October 2013 to June 2018, recruiting women scheduled for BoNT-A injection in the pelvic floor musculature. Translabial 4DUS, vaginal pressure assessment by manometry and pain visual analog scales (VAS) were performed on all women before injection and again at 4, 12, and 26 weeks. The BoNT-A injection was performed under 4DUS guidance.
    Results: Twenty-nine women had 44 injections over the course of the study. Although improvements were seen in VAS scores for dysmenorrhea, nonmenstrual pelvic pain, and dyspareunia, there were no significant differences in ultrasound biometry at either rest, Valsalva, or on contraction when comparing postinjection measurements at 4, 12, and 26 weeks with pre-injection baseline. Similarly, vaginal pressure readings at rest demonstrated a significant improvement throughout the 4, 12, and 26 week follow-up, with a reduction in maximal contraction at 4 and 12 but not 26 weeks.
    Conclusions: This study demonstrates that 4DUS biometry of the pelvic floor does not correlate with clinical pain and vaginal pressure outcomes for BoNT-A injection in the context of PFTM.
