How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In article experience of use of endovascular embolization of uterine arteries in treatment of cervical pregnancy is described. Super selective uterine artery embolization followed by removal of the ovum devascularization held 7 patients aged 27,8 ± 2,2 years with cervical pregnancy in terms of 5 and 7 weeks. After the reduction of level of chorionic gonadotropin, and in the absence of blood-groove in the fetal ovum, its evacuation was carried out under the control arteriography. Blood loss during the operation does not exceed 100 ml. Postoperative period lasted 4,6 ± 0,4 days. Thus, uterine artery embolization is effective method of complex treatment with cervical pregnancy thus reducing the risk of bleeding and to keep the reproductive function at young women.
