Effects of different educational interventions on cervical cancer knowledge and human papillomavirus vaccination uptake among young women in Japan: Preliminary results of a cluster randomized controlled trial.

The incidence and mortality rates of cervical cancer are increasing among young Japanese women. In November 2021, the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare reinstated the active recommendation of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, after it had been suspended in June 2013 due to reports of adverse reactions. However, vaccine hesitancy is prevalent in the younger generation in Japan.

A multicenter study on TROP2 as a potential targeted therapy for extramammary Paget disease in Japan.

Extramammary Paget disease (EMPD) is a rare skin cancer that typically occurs in the anogenital area of older people. Since efficacy of treatments for metastatic or unresectable EMPD remains poor, development of a novel therapeutic approach is strongly desired. However, the lack of EMPD models has hampered investigation of EMPD.

Cytological Findings of Cylindroma: Differential Diagnosis and Literature Review.

A cylindroma is a relatively rare tumor classified as a benign tumor with apocrine and eccrine differentiation, mainly occurring on the scalp. While there are some reports on the cytological findings of cylindromas, there are no reports concerning stamp preparation. Here, we report a case of a 60-year-old female who presented with a tumor on the right scalp.

Resorcimoline as a Novel Therapeutic Agent Attenuates Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Hind Extremities.

Background: Acute ischemia in the hind extremities is a dangerous disease that causes irreversible damage. Revascularization procedures are important to prevent muscle damage, but these treatments may induce additional damage, also known as ischemia-reperfusion injury. The role of free radicals as pivotal mediators of ischemia-reperfusion injury remains a prominent hypothesis.

Urinary continence outcomes after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy: Significance of anterior reconstruction.

Objective: Urinary continence after radical prostatectomy is a crucial aspect of patient quality of life. The aim of this study was to identify the factors influencing urinary continence after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy, focusing on the role of anterior reconstruction.

Methods: We collected clinical data from 375 patients at a single institution.
