The glitz and glamour randomized trial: the effect of fingernail polish on post-caesarean surgical site infection.

Current surgical scrub guidelines suggest that fingernail polish should not be worn by healthcare providers despite collective evidence not demonstrating a relationship between fingernail polish and surgical-site infection (SSI). The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of surgical staff wearing nail polish on the incidence of SSI after caesarean delivery. In this calendar block-randomised clinical trial, surgical staff were assigned to wear nail polish or to have unpainted nails for alternating two-week periods.

Oncogenic Potential and Clinical Implications of Giant Endometrial Polyps: A Case Report and Literature Review.
