Informed consent in gynecological oncology: a JAGO/NOGGO survey on real-world practices in daily clinical routine.

Purpose: Informed consent is a quintessential element of contemporary medicine, reflecting the fundamental right of patients to participate in decision-making regarding their health. Despite its critical importance, there is a lack of data on real-world practices regarding patient informed consent in the context of modern, high-pressure medical environments.

Methods: We conducted a multinational multicentric survey from February 24, 2022, to September 14, 2022, investigating the practices and challenges surrounding informed consent in hospitals across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland with the use of a specifically developed questionnaire.

Controlling the coarsening dynamics of ferrogranular networks by means of a vertical magnetic field.

We are exploring in experiments the aggregation process in a shaken granular mixture of glass and magnetized steel beads, filled in a horizontal vessel, after the shaking amplitude is suddenly decreased. Then the magnetized beads form a transient network that coarsens in time into compact clusters, resembling a viscoelastic phase separation [Tanaka, J. Phys.

Novel approach of desensitization in allergic reaction to Olaparib.

Introduction: PARP (Poly ADP Ribose Polymerase) inhibitors are an effective maintenance therapy for various entities, such as BRCA (breast cancer gene) mutated or HRD (homologous recombination deficiency) positive primary platin-sensitive advanced ovarian cancer after platin induction therapy and in relapse after responding to carboplatin reinduction. Other entities are metastatic BRCA mutated pancreas, prostate and Her2-negative breast cancer. Therefore, patients with allergic reactions to PARP inhibitors should undergo a desensitization procedure to be able to receive this efficient therapy.

Sustained Increase of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Levels in Healthy Young Women during Wintertime after Three Suberythemal UV Irradiations-The MUVY Pilot Study.

Objectives: Vitamin D (VitD) deficiency is a health problem prevalent not only in the elderly but also in young adults. The primary objective of our observational pilot study "MUVY" (Mood, UVR, Vitamin D in Young women) was to test both the short-term and long-term effects of a series of three suberythemal UV radiation (UVR) exposures on the VitD status and well-being of young healthy women during winter in a repeat measure design.

Methods: 20 healthy young women (Fitzpatrick skin types I-III, aged 21-25 years) received three full body broad band UVR exposures with an escalating erythemally weighted dose schedule during one week in winter, and completed self-report questionnaires monitoring symptoms of depression (Beck Depression Inventory, BDI) and affective state/well-being (Profile of Mood States, POMS) at baseline and three days after the last UVR exposure.
