Surgery for placenta accreta spectrum is associated with significant maternal morbidity and mortality. The role of gynecologic oncologists in the surgical management currently under investigation. This study examined practices, experiences, interests surgeries.The intervention was an anonymous, cross-sectional, 20-question survey sent to 1084 members Society Gynecologic Oncology USA.A total 184 responded (response rate 17.0%). Most participating have been practicing >10 years after...
Abstract Platinum drugs are the frontline therapy in many carcinomas, including high-grade serous ovarian cancers. Clinically, carcinomas have an apparent complete response to carboplatin, but tumors invariably recur and platinum diminishes over time. Standard of care prohibits re-administration these patients who labeled as having platinum-resistant disease. In this stage treated with non-platinum agents outcomes often poor. vivo vitro data presented here demonstrate that clinical dogma...
Several studies have investigated the effectiveness of intrauterine device placement at cesarean delivery as a contraceptive method. However, national-level use and outcomes postplacental are currently understudied in United States.This study aimed to examine trends, characteristics, patients who received delivery.This retrospective cohort used National Inpatient Sample. The included underwent from October 2015 December 2018. exclusion criteria hemorrhage, chorioamnionitis, uterine anomaly,...
Abstract High-grade serous ovarian cancers (HGSOCs) contain CA125-negative cancer-initiating cells resistant to standard platinum therapy. High expression of cellular inhibitors apoptosis proteins (cIAPs) in these HGSOC initiating causes resistance despite platinum-induced DNA damage. cIAPs can be degraded with the addition birinapant, a SMAC-mimetic, sensitizing cancer carboplatin and resulting their elimination. Using vitro drug assays, we demonstrate that more than half human HGSOCs...

In this case report, we detail the of a young adult with recurrent Reactive Infectious Mucocutaneous Eruption (RIME) in setting Sars-COV-2 infection, second time has been reported literature. We review more common causes RIME, including Chlamydophila pneumoniae, metapneumovirus, parainfluenza, rhinovirus, enterovirus, and influenza; discuss patient characteristics other cases RIME secondary to COVID-19 features seen patients Our had characteristic severe mucosal involvement was treated...
