Mental health and help-seeking among college students during the COVID-19 pandemic: Roles of campus mental health climate and institutional support.

This study aimed to examine college students' perceived mental health and help-seeking behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as to determine the roles of campus mental health climate and institutional support on students' help-seeking behaviors and well-being. The sample included 123 students from a Northeastern United States University. Using a web-based survey and convenience sampling, data were collected in late 2021.

Clinical experience: Outcomes of mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in five stroke patients.

Stem cell therapy, which has promising results in acute disorders such as stroke, supports treatment by providing rehabilitation in the chronic stage patients. In acute stroke, thrombolytic medical treatment protocols are clearly defined in neurologic emergencies, but in neurologic patients who miss the "thrombolytic treatment intervention window," or in cases of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, our hands are tied, and we are still unfortunately faced with hopeless clinical implementations. We consider mesenchymal stem cell therapy a viable option in these cases.

The effect of pneumoperitoneum and Trendelenburg position on optic nerve sheath diameter in patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy.

Background And Aim: Laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) have been frequently used because of low complication rates and short duration of hospital stay. Elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), a disadvantage of laparoscopic surgery, is caused by the Trendelenburg position (TP) and CO pneumoperitoneum (PP). This study aimed to evaluate TP and PP associated changes in ICP by ONSD measurements during LH.

COVID-19 pandemic-related stressors and posttraumatic stress: The main, moderating, indirect, and mediating effects of social support.

The COVID-19 pandemic has created a variety of stressors, some of which have been linked to intense stress reactions, such as posttraumatic stress (PTS)-like symptoms. However, we have limited knowledge on cumulative effects of pandemic-related stressors on PTS or on variables that may mitigate the effects of these stressors. We aimed to address some of these knowledge gaps by testing three models to examine the interrelationships among pandemic-related stressors, perceived social support, coping flexibility, and pandemic-related PTS.

Cytoreductive surgery including distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy in advanced stage ovarian cancer: Two centers analysis.

Objective: Complex procedures such as distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy (DPS) may be required for R0 resection in patients with ovarian cancer (OC). These procedures can increase survival and cause serious morbidity. We aimed to present our experience in this field.

COVID-19 and traumatic stress: The role of perceived vulnerability, COVID-19-related worries, and social isolation.

The purpose of the present study was to propose and test two models to understand the relationship between perceived vulnerability to COVID-19 (PVC) and COVID-19-related traumatic stress (TS), as well as the variables that may mediate and moderate this relationship among individuals who have not yet been infected with COVID-19. Using an online survey, data were collected between late March and early April 2020. Participants were recruited through Amazon Mechanical Turk and included 747 adults living in the United States.

The evaluation of laparotomy results in breast cancer patients with gynecological pathologies.

Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the results of the laparotomies due to gynecological pathologies in breast cancer patients and to assess the distribution of gynecological pathologies and the clinical and laboratory findings contributing to the diagnosis.

Methods: This study was conducted between years 2002 and 2011 at Hacettepe University Hospital. We obtained information about 86 consecutive breast cancer patients, including age, time of diagnosis and pathology of breast cancer, hormone receptor status, history of endocrine therapy, presenting symptoms, ultrasonography findings, CA 125 levels, endometrial biopsy results, type of gynecological surgery and pathology results.

Primary leiomyosarcoma of the ovary: a report of three cases and a systematic review of literature.

Primary ovarian leiomyosarcomas (POLMs) comprise <0.1 % of all ovarian malignancies. Here we aimed to define the clinical, surgical, and pathological features, as well as the oncologic outcome, of POLM.

Self-criticism, self-compassion, and perceived health: moderating effect of ethnicity.

A caring and compassionate attitude toward the self (i.e., self-compassion) has been linked to various mental and physical health benefits.

Bone recurrence after radical hysterectomy and lymphadenectomy in early-stage cervical cancer.

Objective: To present the clinical, surgical, and pathologic features of bone recurrence in patients who underwent radical hysterectomy for early-stage uterine cervical cancer.

Materials And Methods: Data of 412 patients who underwent type III radical hysterectomy and pelvic ± paraaortic lymphadenectomy for stage 1B-2A epithelial cervical cancer were reviewed. Seven (1.

Background/aim: We aimed to define the effect of tumor size on recurrence and survival rates in patients with stage I–II endometrioid-type endometrial cancer.

Materials And Methods: A total of 550 patients who had total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and pelvic-paraaortic lymphadenectomy were included. Patients with extrauterine spread, sarcomatous components, or synchronized tumor and those who did not undergo lymphadenectomy or did not have data on tumor size were excluded.

Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich Syndrome; laparoscopic treatment of obstructing longitudinal vaginal septum in patients with hematocolpos - a different technique for virgin patients.

We aimed to define a new laparoscopic treatment approach for patients with hematocolpos and obstructed hemi-vagina due to longitudinal obstructing vaginal septum. This technique is particularly useful for patients who desire to preserve virginity. To the best of our knowledge this is the first case reporting laparoscopic resection of vaginal septum with an obstructed hemivagina and hematocolpos.

Do dialectical self-beliefs moderate the indirect effect of betrayal traumas on posttraumatic stress through self-compassion?

Background: Traumatic events experienced in childhood, particularly those that are perpetrated by someone whom the child trusts or depends upon (i.e., high betrayal traumas [HBTs], such as abuse by a parent) can lead to long-term negative consequences, including a tendency to see oneself in a negative light, low self-compassion, and posttraumatic stress disorder.

Avoidance coping and academic locus of control as mediators of the relationship between posttraumatic stress and academic achievement among first-year college students.

Posttraumatic stress (PTS) has been found to be associated with poor academic performance among college students. However, our understanding of the mechanisms underlying this relationship is limited to the results of a few recent studies. The present study is aimed at expanding the literature in this area by examining whether avoidance coping and external academic locus of control (LOC) mediate the relationship between PTS and academic achievement among first-year college students.

Tumor apelin immunoreactivity is correlated with body mass index in ovarian high grade serous carcinoma.

Ovarian cancer has a high mortality rate. Serous carcinoma is the most common subtype and can be detected by distant or lymph node metastasis in advanced stages. Apelin, an adipokine associated with obesity, and its receptor, APJ, participate in lymphatic invasion.
