Analysis of patients with endometrial carcinoma using the ProMise classifier: a pilot study from India.

Background: Molecular subtyping of endometrial carcinomas (EC) has been shown to classify tumors into prognostically relevant groups. Characterizing EC with a limited number of markers viz., POLE mutations, p53 mutations, and MMR status, can provide valuable information.

Vulval Intraepithelial Neoplasia 3: A Clinico-Pathological Review in a Tertiary Care Centre Over 10 Years.

Objectives: Vulval Intraepithelial Neoplasia 3 (VIN) is a chronic, premalignant condition affecting the vulval skin. The age standardised incidence is approximately one per 100,000 women, with a peak at 30-49 years of age, and has risen over recent decades. This study would analyse the pattern of presentation, diagnosis, treatment and follow up of patients diagnosed with VIN 3 over a period of ten years at a tertiary care centre in India.

ERAS: An Audit of Existing Practices.

Objectives: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is a set of multidisciplinary, evidence proven guidelines which enhance perioperative recovery in various surgical branches. This study was planned as a pilot effort with the aim of evaluating the surgical team's compliance to ERAS, in the absence of a structured programme, in the department of gynaecologic oncology of a tertiary care hospital in India.

Methods: This is a retrospective audit of patients who underwent elective surgery, in the department of gynaecologic oncology, in a tertiary care centre in India, between 15th August 2019 to 15th October 2019.

Complications and Outcomes of Diaphragm Surgeries in Epithelial Ovarian Malignancies.

To achieve optimal debulking, cytoreductive surgery often involves diaphragm stripping. We describe our complications and survival outcomes after diaphragm surgery in epithelial ovarian cancer. A retrospective analysis on patients with advanced stage epithelial ovarian cancer between January 2012 and September 2019.

Role of Hysterectomy in Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasia.

Hysterectomy has a limited role in the management of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia because of the high effectiveness of chemotherapy and the young age of patients. In selected patients, it is believed to help in reducing the number of chemotherapy cycles, overcoming chemo-resistance, and treating acute haemorrhagic events. The present study aimed to evaluate the indications and outcomes of hysterectomy in patients with GTN at a tertiary care centre in India.

Metastatic Tumors to the Ovary-a Surgeon's Dilemma.

Unlabelled: The ovary is a common site of metastasis. Differential diagnosis of ovarian carcinomas, including secondary tumors, remains a challenging task. Clinical decision-making depends on an accurate diagnosis of the type of ovarian cancer.

Treatment Outcomes of Early Carcinoma Cervix Before and After Sub-specialization.

This study aimed to compare the treatment outcomes in carcinoma cervix before and after gynecologic oncology sub-specialization at a tertiary care hospital, in India. This was a retrospective cohort study comparing women with operable cervical cancer who underwent radical hysterectomy before and after gynecologic oncology sub-specialization. Electronic medical records of women operated for early carcinoma cervix between 2001 and 2010 and 2011-2015 were reviewed and compared for treatment and oncological outcomes.

Abdominal Tuberculosis Mimicking Ovarian Cancer: A Diagnostic Dilemma.

Aims: The objective of this study was to describe the clinicopathological details in patients referred to the Gynaecologic Oncology Department with possible ovarian or primary peritoneal cancer where the final diagnosis turned out to be abdominal tuberculosis.

Methodology: Retrospective chart analysis of 23 cases diagnosed with abdominal tuberculosis who were admitted under the Division of Gynaecologic Oncology suspected to have disseminated peritoneal malignancy, during 2014-2017.

Results: There were 23 patients who were referred to the Gynaecologic Oncology outpatient for evaluation of ascites, to rule out malignancy.

The Ionospheric view of the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake seismic source: the first 60 seconds of the rupture.

Effect of UV-B priming on the abiotic stress tolerance of stress-sensitive rice seedlings: Priming imprints and cross-tolerance.

Ultraviolet (UV)-B priming can boost the abiotic stress tolerance of plants by activating stress-responsive pathways. The main objective of the present study was to investigate the persistence of priming imprints and cross-tolerance inducing effects of UV-B priming in abiotic stress-sensitive rice (Oryza sativa L. 'Aiswarya') when subjected to various abiotic stressors (NaCl, PEG, and UV-B).

Mapping the Impact of Non-Tectonic Forcing mechanisms on GNSS measured Coseismic Ionospheric Perturbations.

Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) measured Total Electron Content (TEC) is now widely used to study the near and far-field coseismic ionospheric perturbations (CIP). The generation of near field (~500-600 km surrounding an epicenter) CIP is mainly attributed to the coseismic crustal deformation. The azimuthal distribution of near field CIP may contain information on the seismic/tectonic source characteristics of rupture propagation direction and thrust orientations.

UV-B priming of var. Kanchana seedlings augments its antioxidative potential and gene expression of stress-response proteins under various abiotic stresses.

Priming is one of the mechanisms for the induction of the antioxidant defense system and various stress-responsive proteins which help plants to survive under various abiotic stresses. Based on the observation that the rice seedlings primed with UV-B (low dose of UV-B irradiation-6 kJm) induced the acclimation against NaCl, PEG and UV-B stresses, it was of interest to see the augmentation of antioxidative potential and stress-responsive proteins accumulation in rice seedlings due to UV-B priming under these stresses. Various stresses result in production of ROS, which cause membrane degradation resulting in the accumulation of malondialdehyde.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Frozen Section and Its Influence on Intraoperative Management of Indeterminate Epithelial Ovarian Tumors.

The objective of this study is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of frozen section in detecting epithelial ovarian tumor histological types and its effect on management. A retrospective review was done of all patients who had an intraoperative frozen section for an indeterminate ovarian tumor over a six-year period. The reference standard was final histology.

Amplification of abiotic stress tolerance potential in rice seedlings with a low dose of UV-B seed priming.

UV-B radiation is a major abiotic stress factor that adversely affects the growth and productivity of crop plants including rice (Oryza sativa L.). However, on the other hand, lower doses of UV-B radiation applied to seeds can have a priming effect on plants emerging from it.

Revelation of early detection of co-seismic ionospheric perturbations in GPS-TEC from realistic modelling approach: Case study.

GPS-derived Total Electron Content (TEC) is an integrated quantity; hence it is difficult to relate the detection of ionospheric perturbations in TEC to a precise altitude. As TEC is weighted by the maximum ionospheric density, the corresponding altitude (hmF2) is, generally, assumed as the perturbation detection altitude. To investigate the validity of this assumption in detail, we conduct an accurate analysis of the GPS-TEC measured early ionospheric signatures related to the vertical surface displacement of the Mw 7.
