Objective: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of acupuncture on xerostomia in irradiated patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).
Study Design: A preventive, 2-arm, parallel, single-blind trial was performed. Patients with HNSCC (N = 296) were checked for eligibility, and 107 patients were enrolled in the study.
Objective: To analyze gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist in association with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) (dual triggering) versus hCG alone (conventional triggering) for final oocyte maturation triggering in GnRH antagonist cycles in an unselected population of Brazilian women.
Methods: This prospective case-control study involved 114 patients referred to autologous in vitro fertilization treatment between February 2018 and August 2019, recruited regardless of age, infertility factor or number of cycles. The patients were randomly allocated into two groups according to oocyte maturation triggering approach: group A (n = 48) - hCG only; and group B (n = 66) - hCG plus GnRH agonist.
Oral Mucositis (OM) is a common adverse effect of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) treatment. The purpose of this study was to investigate the significance of early changes in tissue electrical parameters (TEPs) in predicting the development of OM in HNSCC patients receiving radiation therapy (RT). The current study combined two study designs.
