Objective: This study evaluates the implementation of an ERAS program in the gynecological surgery department of Caen University Hospital and its impact on the management of endometrial cancer. The objective was to show its impact on the length of hospitalization of patients before and after its implementation.
Patients And Method: We conducted a retrospective study including all women treated surgically for endometrial cancer at Caen University Hospital between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2021.
Bacterial histidine kinases are promising targets for new antimicrobial agents. In antibacterial therapy, such agents could inhibit bacterial growth by targeting essential two-component regulatory systems or resensitize bacteria to known antibiotics by blocking stress responses upon cell wall or cell membrane damage. However, (i) activity assays using truncated kinase proteins, that is, the cytoplasmic domains containing the conserved histidine residue for phosphorylation, have been shown to produce artifacts, and (ii) the purification of the full-length histidine kinases is complicated.

Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol
September 2020
Article Synopsis
- The study evaluates the feasibility of same-day surgery for minimally invasive hysterectomies performed on women, focusing on factors contributing to success or failure.
- Conducted at Caen and Amiens University Hospitals, it included 50 patients under 70 with no major health issues, categorized into "fit" and "unfit" groups based on their recovery scores.
- The results highlighted that prior laparotomy, pain, and postoperative nausea/vomiting were significant predictors for unsuccessful same-day discharge, but overall, same-day hysterectomy was found to be safe and feasible.
