Surgical nodal assessment for endometrial hyperplasia - A meta-analysis and systematic review.

Objective: Endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN) and atypical hyperplasia (AH) are recognized precursors for endometrial cancer (EC). Most current guidelines do not recommend the routine surgical evaluation of lymph nodes (LN), although recent studies indicate increased use of sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy in patients with a preoperative diagnosis of EIN/AH. We aimed to evaluate the rates of positive LN and its effect on the incidence of upstaging of EIN/AH patients, complications, and adjuvant treatment administration.

Localized wave structures: Solitons and beyond.

The review is concerned with solitary waves and other localized structures in the systems described by a variety of generalizations of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. Among the topics we focus upon are "radiating solitons," the generic structures made of soliton-like pulses, and oscillating tails. We also review the properties of solitary waves in the generalized KdV equations with the modular and "sublinear" nonlinearities.

Sentinel lymph node sampling versus full lymphadenectomy in endometrial cancer: a SEER database analysis.

Objective: To assess the long term outcomes and prognosis of sentinel lymph node sampling compared with full lymph node dissection in endometrial cancer patients.

Methods: We used the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database for information on women diagnosed with endometrial cancer from 2010 to 2019. We conducted a comparison including overall survival between patients who had undergone sentinel lymph node sampling only and patients who had undergone formal lymph node dissection.

Incidence and characteristics of ovarian cancer following endometrial cancer in the emerging era of conservative management of endometrial cancer-Implications for counseling-A SEER analysis.

Objective: To assess the ovarian cancer (OC) risk following endometrial cancer (EC) in patients who underwent ovarian preservation as part of the EC staging.

Study Design: With permission of the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) program of the United States National Cancer Institute, clinicopathological information of women diagnosed with EC and following OC were analyzed. Incidence of OC and survival according to the surgical approach were studied.

A randomized-controlled trial assessing the effect of intraoperative acupuncture on anesthesia-related parameters during gynecological oncology surgery.

Context And Objectives: The present study examined the impact of intraoperative acupuncture on anesthesia-related parameters in patients undergoing gynecological oncology surgery.

Methods: Participants underwent preoperative integrative oncology (IO) touch/relaxation treatments, followed by intraoperative acupuncture (Group A); preoperative IO treatments without acupuncture (Group B); or standard care only (Group C). Mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), MAP variability (mean of MAP standard deviation), bispectral index (BIS), and calculated blood pressure Average Real Variability (ARV) were measured intraoperatively.
