Purpose: This study was conducted to analyze the relationship between plasma D-dimer levels and the risk of recurrence after surgical treatment in patients with early-stage cervical cancer (CC).
Methods: In this cohort study, 888 participants with early-stage CC undergoing surgical treatment in Fujian Cancer Hospital between June 2016 and December 2019 were identified. Univariate logistic regression was used to screen confounding factors affecting the recurrence of early CC after surgical treatment.
Objective: This study aims to enhance compliance with lower limb lymphedema (LLL) prevention care measures post-gynecologic oncology surgery (GOS) through quality control circle (QCC) activity, aiming to improve patient recovery outcomes and reduce postoperative complications.
Methods: A 6-month QCC activity was conducted within the hospital, employing the ten-step plan-do-check-act model for QCC activity. The root causes of inadequate implementation of LLL prevention care measures were analyzed, leading to the development of relevant strategies and protocols.
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) stand at the forefront of photovoltaic research, with current efficiencies surpassing 26.1%. This review critically examines the role of electron transport materials (ETMs) in enhancing the performance and longevity of PSCs.

The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) has revised the staging system, emphasizing the strength of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We aimed to investigate long-term prognostic factors for FIGO 2018 stage II-IIIC2r uterine cervical squamous cell carcinoma following definitive radiotherapy and establish a prognostic model using MRI-derived tumor volume.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFPurpose: To present a nomogram to predict overall survival in patients with FIGO-2018 II to III squamous cell cervical carcinoma undergoing radical radiotherapy.
Patients And Methods: Patients diagnosed with FIGO-2018 II to III squamous cell cervical cancer between December 2013 and December 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. The optimal cutoff point for tumor length and width were determined by R package.
Objective: This study aimed to explore the prognostic factors and outcomes of patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) of the cervix and to determine appropriate treatment.
Methods: A single-institution retrospective analysis of 172 patients with NETs was performed based on the new International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO 2018) staging system.
Results: Among the 172 eligible patients, 161 were diagnosed with small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (SCNEC), six with large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma, four with typical carcinoid tumors and one with SCNEC combined with an atypical carcinoid tumor.
Objectives/hypothesis: Our objective was to predict the radiosensitivity of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma xenografts in nude mice models through an examination of early changes in apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values.
Study Design: Randomized.
Methods: BALB/c-nu nude mice (n = 20) were divided into two groups that were subcutaneously injected with CNE1 or CNE2 cell lines.
