Robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical hysterectomy for early-stage cervical cancer: The more experienced the bedside assistant, the better?

Background: Aim to investigate the impact of bedside assistant's work experience and learning curve on the short-term safety and efficacy in robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical hysterectomy for early-stage cervical cancer.

Methods: Our research retrospectively retrieved 120 cases of early-stage cervical cancer patients who underwent robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical hysterectomy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University. According to the different work experiences of the two bedside assistants (BA), patients were divided into a research group (inexperienced BA 1) and a control group (experienced BA 2).

Short-hairpin RNA-mediated suppression of cortactin may inhibit the migration and invasion abilities of endometrial cancer cells by reducing lamellipodia.

Objectives: The prognosis of endometrial cancer (EC) is significantly affected by tumor infiltration and metastasis. Cortactin (CTTN) regulates infiltration and metastasis in other tumors. Studies on the role and mechanism of CTTN in EC are limited and further studies are needed.

An optimized robotic surgical technique for cervical cancer: investigating whether the use of the pulling robotic arm has better surgical outcomes.

Objective: The evidence for adopting the 3 robotic arm (RA) called the pulling RA rather than a uterine manipulator to manipulate the uterus in the robotic radical hysterectomy (RRH) for cervical cancer is still limited. We present a single-center retrospective experience comparing using the pulling RA to replace a uterine manipulator vs. using a uterine manipulator to manipulate the uterus in RRH.

LINC01541 Functions as a ceRNA to Modulate the Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway by Decoying miR-506-5p in Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases that adversely effects the lives of women. Our previous studies showed that LINC01541 plays a key role in 17β-estradiol (17β-E2)-stimulated endometrial stromal cells (ESCs); however, the mechanism by which LINC01541 exerts if effects requires further elaboration. Here, we report that LINC01541 serves to reduce the bioavailability of miR-506-5p by acting as a molecular sponge.

LINC01541 overexpression attenuates the 17β-Estradiol-induced migration and invasion capabilities of endometrial stromal cells.

Endometriosis affects 6-10% of healthy women of reproductive age. Therefore, it is important to study the molecular mechanism by which endometriosis develops. This study examined whether aberrant expression of LINC01541 contributes to the pathogenesis of endometriosis.
