The study purpose was to examine vision-specific and overall health-related quality of life (QOL) at baseline in Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension Treatment Trial patients who were newly diagnosed had mild visual loss. We also sought determine the associations between QOL scores symptoms, function, pain, headache-related disability, obesity.
<h3>Objectives:</h3> Determine potential risk factors for progressive visual field loss in the Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension Treatment Trial, a randomized placebo-controlled trial of acetazolamide patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension and mild concurrently receiving low sodium, weight reduction diet. <h3>Methods:</h3> Logistic regression classification tree analyses were used to evaluate protocol-defined treatment failure (>2 dB perimetric mean deviation [PMD] change...
Abstract Purpose: High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is the most lethal epithelial cancer (EOC) and often diagnosed at late stage. In women with a known pelvic mass, surgery followed by pathologic assessment reliable way to diagnose EOC there are still no effective screening tools in asymptomatic women. current study, we developed cell-free DNA (cfDNA) methylation liquid biopsy for risk of early-stage HGSOC. Experimental Design: We performed reduced representation bisulfite...
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is a genetic disorder characterized by deficiency in endoglin, an angiogenic protein. The net effect of endoglin expression on cancer outcomes from animal studies has proven controversial. We evaluated whether reduced systemic levels, expected patients diagnosed with HHT, impacted clinical for cancer.
The excitatory amino acid glutamate plays an important role in the development of neuronal sensitization and ionotropic N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) is one major receptors involved. objective this study was to use a cat model gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) investigate expression NR1 NR2A subunits NMDAR vagal spinal afferent fibers innervating esophagus. Two groups cats (Acid-7D PBS-7D) received 0.1 N HCl (pH 1.2) or M PBS 7.4) infusion esophagus (1 ml/min for 30 min/day 7...
Abstract Background and Objectives Suspicious peritoneal cytology refers to the result of testing that is insufficient in either quality or quantity for a definitive diagnosis malignancy. This study examined characteristics survival outcomes related suspicious endometrial cancer. Methods A population‐based retrospective by querying National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results Program was conducted. total 41,229 women with Stage I–III cancer who had cytologic sampling...
Chylous ascites is defined as the pathologic accumulation of lymphatic fluid within peritoneal cavity and has been reported to complicate gynecologic surgeries, with an incidence 0.17-2%. We report a case chylous after complex surgery for placenta percreta.A 26-year-old woman underwent cesarean delivery followed by bilateral uterine artery embolization modified radical hysterectomy at 26 5/7 weeks gestation percreta invading urinary bladder. No surgical dissection was performed above pelvic...
• Tumor lysis syndrome is a rare but deadly complication of solid tumors. We suggest that tumor especially when it results from high grade or metastatic endometrial cancers. Consider prophylactic measures to prevent in risk patients before initiating therapy.
Abstract Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a malignancy associated with considerable morbidity and high rates of mortality, primarily due to its frequent presentation in an advanced stage. High grade serous carcinoma (HGSOC) the most lethal gynecologic malignancy, 5-year survival rate 40% or less when diagnosed at late-stage. There currently no single effective screening tool for risk community-based assessment HGSOC. In women known pelvic mass, surgery followed pathological only definitive...
Introduction: Mucosal melanomas only account for 0.03% of newly diagnosed cancer cases. Female genital tract 3% all melanomas, with melanoma the cervix accounting less than female melanomas. It is difficult to understand how mucosal arise as pathogenesis still unknown. The incidence cutaneous has greatly increased over years whereas stayed relatively steady. Given rarity cervix, a standard care treatment not been established. Based on limited cases that have previously treated, first option...

Abstract Background Adjuvant hysterectomy following chemoradiation for bulky, early stage cervical cancer has been shown to decrease local relapse rate. The objective of this study is compare complications and recurrences between minimally invasive open adjuvant cancer. Methods Patients were identified who had undergone 2009 FIGO IB2 IIA2 from August 2006 June 2018. Demographic information, treatment course, complications, recurrence data retrospectively extracted the medical record....
