Purpose Selective internal radiation therapy or radioembolization (RE) shows efficacy in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) limited to the liver. This study compared safety and of RE sorafenib patients with locally advanced HCC. Patients Methods SIRveNIB (selective v sorafenib), an open-label, investigator-initiated, phase III trial, yttrium-90 ( 90 Y) resin microspheres 800 mg/d HCC a two-tailed designed for superiority/detriment. were randomly assigned 1:1 stratified by center...
Although radio-frequency (RF) ablation has been accepted as a promising and safe technique for treatment of unresectable hepatic tumors, investigation its complications limited. According to the multicenter (1,139 patients in 11 institutions) survey data Korean Study Group Radiofrequency Ablation, spectrum occurred after RF tumors. The prevalence major was 2.43%. most common were abscess (0.66%), peritoneal hemorrhage (0.46%), biloma (0.20%), ground pad burn pneumothorax vasovagal reflex...
Objective Much controversy still exists about maternal-to-infant transmission of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, specifically the magnitude risk and route timing such vertical transmission. This prospective cohort study examines maternal HPV in each trimester pregnancy. Study design One hundred fifty three healthy pregnant women were followed longitudinally throughout pregnancy cervical swabs obtained postpartum for detection. Cord blood, neonatal nasopharyngeal aspirates, placental...
<i>Background:</i> The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy, safety and achievement target hemoglobin level (Hb ≥10 g/dl) in patients with preoperative anemia due menorrhagia who received intravenous iron sucrose compared oral protein succinylate for management. <i>Methods:</i> Seventy-six Hb levels <9.0 g/dl were scheduled undergo surgical treatment randomized receive either (based on calculated total deficit divided into 2 ampoule infusions intravenously...
Limited treatment options are available for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) portal vein thrombosis (PVT). Transarterial radioembolization using Yttrium-90 microspheres is a new modality HCC PVT. For this analysis, we compared responses to and sorafenib.We evaluated 32 who were part of multicenter retrospective cohort. All had PVT without extrahepatic metastasis treated in one six tertiary referral hospitals Korea. We retrospectively enrolled another 31 consecutive from single...
Objective We aim to examine changes in sexual activity and function among younger breast cancer survivors who were sexually active before diagnosis investigate risk factors for negative impacts on them. Methods An observational cohort study enrolled 304 premenopausal women diagnosed with early stage cancer. Questionnaires completed, was measured at two time points: after surgery, assess diagnosis, then least 12 months the completion of chemotherapy or endocrine therapy. For each domain...
Clinical practice guidelines for gynecologic cancers have been developed by academic society from several countries.Each guideline reflected their own insurance system and unique medical environment, based on the published evidence.The Korean Society of Gynecologic Oncology (KSGO) first edition cancer treatment in late 2006; second was released July 2010 as an evidence-based recommendation.The Guidelines Revision Committee established 2015 decided to develop third advanced format medicine,...
We updated the Korean Society of Gynecologic Oncology (KSGO) practice guideline for management ovarian cancer as version 5.1. The team KSGO published announced fifth (version 5.0) its clinical guidelines in December 2023. In 5.0, selection key questions and systematic reviews were based on data available up to 2022. Therefore, we 5.0 with newly accumulated added 5 new reflecting latest insights field between 2023 2024. For each question, recommendation was provided together corresponding...
Serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma (STIC), a potential precursor of high-grade serous carcinoma, is associated with subsequent carcinomas development. This study aimed to identify cases STIC and lesions (STIL) examine clinical outcomes patterns care in BRCA1/2 mutations carriers undergoing risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO), as well patients incidental STIC/STIL after benign gynecologic surgery. retrospective was conducted at six institutions isolated STIC/STIL. Demographic,...
Abstract Aim: To investigate the application status of ovarian transposition (OT) in reproductive‐aged cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy. Material & Methods: Between November 1999 and December 2008, 2524 had received pelvic irradiation at Seoul National University Hospital. We filtered with indications (i) within 12 to 40 years age, (ii) receiving primary or adjuvant irradiation. There were 241 age. After excluding 133 metastatic disease under palliative treatment, 108...
This paper describes current trends in the prediction of crop pests using machine learning technology. With advent data mining, field agriculture is also focused on it. Currently, various studies, domestic and overseas, are under progress technology, cases its utilization increasing. classifies introduces SVM (Support Vector Machine), Multiple Linear Regression, Neural Network, Bayesian Network based techniques, some their utilization.
Anthraquinone compounds are one of the abundant polyphenols found in fruits, vegetables, and herbs. However, vivo anti-inflammatory activity molecular mechanisms anthraquinones have not been fully elucidated. We investigated using acute inflammatory nociceptive experimental conditions. Anthraquinone-2-carboxylic acid (9,10-dihydro-9,10-dioxo-2-anthracenecarboxylic acid, AQCA), major identified from Brazilian taheebo, ameliorated various algesic symptoms EtOH/HCl- acetylsalicylic acid- (ASA-)...
To evaluate the association between mismatch repair (MMR) protein expression and clinico-pathologic outcomes in patients with endometrioid endometrial cancer (EC). A retrospective review of was performed on who were diagnosed EC had results MMR immunohistochemistry. MMR-deficient (MMR-d) defined as absence any 4 proteins (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2). Demographics, pathologic variables, survival compared according to status. total 193 available data included, whom 163 type EC. Overall, 44 (27.0%)...
The purpose of this study was to define the range abnormalities and assess contribution high-resolution CT (HRCT) in evaluation miliary tuberculosis involving lung parenchyma.The authors retrospectively reviewed HRCT scans 11 patients with microbiologically or clinically proved tuberculosis.In 10 patients, most characteristic finding presence small nodules uniformly distributed throughout both lungs. profusion numerous all patients. High-resolution showed sharply poorly defined, varying...
Objectives: The aim of this prospective study was to reveal the efficacy and safety Yttrium-90 (90Y) radioembolization in Korean patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods: A total 40 HCC were prospectively recruited from 7 centers. response treatment assessed on basis modified Response Evaluation Criteria Solid Tumors criteria. time progression overall survival also evaluated, assessment done according National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria, Version 3.0. Results:...
Objective Decreased adiponectin and increased leptin plasma concentrations are believed to be associated with the occurrence progression of cancers such as endometrial cancer breast cancer. The aim this study was explore association levels development ovarian Methods For patients control group, were measured; anthropometric data obtained during a chart review. Statistical comparisons between groups analyzed using Student's t-test; correlations confirmed Pearson correlation. Results mean in...
Bulky or multiple lymph node (LN) metastases are associated with poor prognosis in cervical cancer, and the size number of LN is not yet reflected staging system therapeutic strategy. Although effects surgical resection bulky LNs before standard treatment have been reported several retrospective studies, well-planned randomized clinical studies lacking.
