The fallopian tube undergoes extensive molecular changes during the menstrual cycle and menopause. We use single-cell RNA ATAC sequencing to construct a comprehensive cell atlas of healthy human tubes Our scRNA-seq comparison 85,107 pre- 46,111 post-menopausal cells reveals substantial shifts in type frequencies, gene expression, transcription factor activity, cell-to-cell communications menopause cycle. Menstrual dependent hormonal regulate distinct states secretory epithelial cells....
OBJECTIVE Both food insecurity (limited access owing to cost) and living in areas with low physical nutritious foods are public health concerns, but their relative contribution diabetes management is poorly understood. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This was a prospective cohort study. A random sample of patients primary care network completed assessment 2013. Low at the census tract level defined as no supermarket within 1 mile urban 10 miles rural areas. HbA1c measurements were obtained from...
To describe disease- and treatment-related survivorship burden amongst survivors of cervical cancer identify risk factors for hospital admissions after initial treatment.
Objective The aim of this study was to identify the rate 30-day postoperative complications after use epidural in women undergoing hysterectomy for gynecologic malignancy. Secondary outcome impact on hospital length stay. Methods A retrospective cohort conducted using American College Surgeons’ National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database. This large dataset includes perioperative risk factors and post-operative outcomes from more than 680 hospitals. Women who underwent abdominal a...
The purpose of this study was to characterize survivorship concerns and program preferences among gynecologic cancer survivors. Women treated for malignancy at our center were surveyed from 1/2019 10/2020 on using a 5-point Likert scale. Descriptive analysis multivariable logistic regression performed describe survivors' concerns/preferences. most frequent fear recurrence (49.6%), desire lose weight (40.0%), long-term side effects (30.7%). highest ranked components included assistance with...
To describe the use of telemedicine in gynecologic oncology and identify patient characteristics associated with during COVID-19.Single-institution retrospective chart review patients cancer who participated in-person visits (video telephone) from January 2019 to November 2020. Patient characteristics, visit treatment were collected. Comparisons between 2020 performed. Cancer-specific details described.From 2020, 2,039 attended 5240 ambulatory our outpatient clinics 4,304 (82.1%) visits, 512...
Abstract Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of financial toxicity in women diagnosed with advanced/recurrent endometrial cancer and describe characteristics qualitative aspects stressors this population. Methods: Women at an urban academic center were invited to participate a mixed-methods study quality-of-life (QOL) toxicity. Participants completed surveys including EuroQOL-5D-5 (QOL), tool (COmprehensive Score for Financial Toxicity (COST)) interview inquiring about stressors....
INTRODUCTION: The ACGME and ACOG promote the use of minimally invasive approaches for hysterectomy. In 2018, Ob/Gyn Residency Review Committee increased number (MIS) hysterectomies required trainees to graduate residency. Historically, inner-city black women have higher rates fibroid disease other medical co-morbidities that may exclude MIS as safest mode METHODS: Retrospective cohort study using 2016 hysterectomy-specific National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database....
Summary As part of the Human Cell Atlas initiative, we generated transcriptomic (scRNA-seq; 86,708 cells) and regulatory (scATAC-seq; 59,118 profiles normal postmenopausal ovary fallopian tube (FT) at single-cell resolution. In FT, 22 cell clusters integrated into 11 types, including ciliated secretory epithelial cells, while had 17 distinct defining 6 major types. The dominant type in both FT was stromal which expressed several genes associated with aging. fimbrial end a significant number...
