Skin advanced glycation content reflects vaginal tissue glycation level in relation to pregnancy (2017)
Journal Article
Yang. (2017). Skin advanced glycation content reflects vaginal tissue glycation level in relation to pregnancy. Medical Hypotheses, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mehy.2017.09.016

Abstract A few studies have revealed that the advanced glycation content of the vaginal wall in pelvic organ prolapse tissues is elevated. This elevation makes advanced glycation a significant association with the disease. Early detection of vaginal...
