Clinician perspectives on hysterectomy versus uterine preservation in pelvic organ prolapse surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Previous reviews on hysterectomy versus uterine-sparing surgery in pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair did not consider that the open abdominal approach or transvaginal mesh use have been largely abandoned.

Objectives: To provide up-to-date evidence by examining only studies investigating techniques currently in use for POP repair.

Search Strategy: MEDLINE and Embase databases were searched from inception to January 2023.

The Role of Micronutrients in Human Papillomavirus Infection, Cervical Dysplasia, and Neoplasm.

There is evidence that diet and nutrition are modifiable risk factors for several cancers. In recent years, attention paid to micronutrients in gynecology has increased, especially regarding Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. We performed a review of the literature up until December 2022, aiming to clarify the effects of micronutrients, minerals, and vitamins on the history of HPV infection and the development of cervical cancer.

Echocardiography and MRI parameters associated with exercise capacity in patients after the arterial switch operation.

Background: The arterial switch operation (ASO) for transposition of the great arteries has excellent survival, but a substantial number of patients suffer from a reduced exercise capacity. The goal of this study was to identify imaging parameters associated with a reduced exercise capacity in patients after ASO.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed of ASO patients who underwent cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) between 2007 and 2017.
