Purpose: To investigate the clinical practices of diagnosing multicystic cervical lesions as a means to develop a more appropriate diagnostic algorithm for gastric-type adenocarcinoma (GAS) and its precursors.

Methods: Clinical information for 159 surgically treated patients for multicystic disease of the uterine cervix was collected from 15 hospitals. We performed a central review of the MRI and pathological findings.

Article Synopsis
  • A study in Japan analyzed changes in the seasonal occurrence of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection, which traditionally peaked in autumn and winter.
  • The research found that RSV epidemic clusters shifted from September-December (2012-2016) to July-October (2017-2019).
  • This earlier trend in RSV infections could impact clinical practices and public health strategies, although the cause of the shift remains uncertain.

Background: The impact of weight change, physical activity, and sedentary behavior on endometrial cancer risk among the Asian population is uncertain. We investigated the association of those factors with endometrial cancer risk among Japanese women with a low body mass index level.

Methods: We performed a large-scale nationwide cohort study consisting of 33,801 female participants aged 40-79 years.

Background: Because cardiovascular function and hemodynamics markedly change during pregnancy, our aim was to elucidate left ventricular (LV) diastolic function in pregnant women.

Methods and results: We prospectively collected the data of 397 pregnant women treated between 2012 and 2013. We evaluated their LV systolic and diastolic functions via echocardiography during the 3rd trimester (28-30 weeks' gestation) and within 4 days of delivery.

Background: We aimed to investigate the values and the changes of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and cardiac troponin in pregnant women.

Methods And Results: We prospectively collected the data of 405 pregnant women who were treated at Japanese general hospital between 2012 and 2013. We analyzed their laboratory data and echocardiographic findings during the third trimester (28-30 weeks' gestation) and within 4 days of delivery.
