Combined associations of a healthy lifestyle and body mass index with colorectal cancer recurrence and survival: a cohort study.

Purpose: Colorectal cancer (CRC) risk is associated with modifiable lifestyle factors including smoking, physical inactivity, Western diet, and excess body weight. The impact of lifestyle factors on survival is less known. A cohort study was conducted to investigate the combined effects of a healthy lifestyle and body mass index on prognosis following CRC diagnosis.

Increasing Risk of Lymphoma Over Time in Crohn's Disease but Not in Ulcerative Colitis: A Scandinavian Cohort Study.

Background & Aims: Earlier studies have provided varying risk estimates for lymphoma in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but often have been limited by detection biases (especially during the first year of follow-up evaluation), misclassification, and small sample size; and rarely reflect modern-day management of IBD.

Methods: We performed a binational register-based cohort study (Sweden and Denmark) from 1969 to 2019. We compared 164,716 patients with IBD with 1,639,027 matched general population reference individuals.

Postoperative Pain After Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Ventral Hernia Repair.

Robot-assisted ventral hernia repair, when performed correctly, may reduce the risk for pain and discomfort in the postoperative period thus enabling shorter hospital stay. The aim of the present study was to evaluate postoperative pain following robot-assisted laparoscopic repair. The approach was selected after an intraoperative decision to complete the repair as: (1).

Retained sex toys: an increasing and possibly preventable medical condition.

Purpose: Retained foreign rectal objects may require surgical removal. To estimate the magnitude of this problem, we report the incidence and treatment of retained rectal objects at a large emergency hospital, and calculate incidence rates at the national level in Sweden.

Methods: All local patient records during 2009-2017 with the diagnosis foreign body in anus and rectum (ICD-10 T185) were accessed and analyzed retrospectively.

Hormone therapy after uterine cervical cancer treatment: a Swedish population-based study.

Objective: This study aims to assess use of hormone therapy (HT) after cervical cancer treatment in women of premenopause age.

Methods: We identified 837 women aged 45 years or younger at diagnosis of cervical cancer in the Swedish Cancer Register from January 1, 2005 to September 30, 2009 with a minimal follow-up of 1.5 years.

Anti-Müllerian hormone in premenopausal women following treatment of uterine cervical cancer.

In this longitudinal study we prospectively enrolled 32 premenopausal women (ages 23-44 years) with stage I-III uterine cervical cancer undergoing surgery and/or chemoradiation. Serum levels of anti-Müllerian hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone and estradiol were examined at baseline and 1 year after treatment. As expected, serum anti-Müllerian hormone was undetectable after salpingo-oophorectomy or chemoradiation.
