Exploring the impact of exercise on women with ovarian cancer: A call for more methodologically standardized RCTs to enable a realistic systematic review.

Introduction: Ovarian cancer remains a leading cause of mortality among gynecological malignancies, often diagnosed at advanced stages due to nonspecific symptoms and limited screening tools. Standard treatment, including cytoreductive surgery and chemotherapy, can cause fatigue, physical dysfunction, and psychological distress, impacting quality of life. Exercise interventions have shown potential to mitigate these effects, but inconsistent methodologies in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) limit reliable conclusions and clinical integration.

StentRetriever- aspiration (SRa) vs direct aspiration (DA) in the treatment of acute M2 segment occlusion of middle cerebral artery: A single center randomized prospective study.

Decision making and patient selection for isolated occlusion of the M2 segment of the middle cerebral artery is challenging, with the efficacy of treatment for such distal occlusions still controversial in recent studies, as occlusion in such small and thin vessels tends to manifest with less severe symptoms initially and hold higher surgical risks. It is even less clear which endovascular technique is more effective for this type of occlusion, with the choice usually left to the radiologist's preference. We conducted a controlled prospective study of consecutive patients presenting to Novara Hospital with an acute M2 occlusion diagnosed at the AngioCt and, following a predetermined randomization, we divided them into two treatment arms with either stent retriever aspiration (SRa) or direct aspiration (DA).

The role of microRNA-9 in ovarian and cervical cancers: An updated overview.

Ovarian and cervical cancers are the two most frequent kind of gynaecological cancers (GCs). In spite of advances in prevention, screening and treatment, cervical cancer still leads to an increased morbidity and mortality worldwide. Ovarian cancer is often detected at a late stage, which significantly reduces the effectiveness of available treatments.

miRNA-mediated inhibition of an actomyosin network in hippocampal pyramidal neurons restricts sociability in adult male mice.

Social deficits are frequently observed in patients suffering from neurodevelopmental disorders, but the molecular mechanisms regulating sociability are still poorly understood. We recently reported that the loss of the microRNA (miRNA) cluster miR-379-410 leads to hypersocial behavior and anxiety in mice. Here, we show that ablating miR-379-410 in excitatory neurons of the postnatal mouse hippocampus recapitulates hypersociability, but not anxiety.
