Residual amniotic fluid volume predicts the sealing of preterm prelabor rupture of fetal membranes in the pre- and periviable period.

Objective: Preterm prelabor rupture of fetal membranes (pPROM) is a leading cause of preterm birth. When pPROM occurs around the pre- and periviable period, the perinatal outcome is unfavorable. However, there have been a few cases in which the leakage of amniotic fluid ceases and the ruptured fetal membranes are spontaneously sealed.

Risk Factors for Septic Shock After Irinotecan-Containing Chemotherapy: An Exploratory Case-Control Study.

Background And Objectives: Irinotecan sometimes causes lethal septic shock but the risk factors remain unclear. This retrospective case-control study explored the potential risk factors for septic shock following irinotecan treatment.

Methods: All women who received irinotecan-containing chemotherapy for gynecologic malignancies at Shizuoka General Hospital from October 2014 to September 2020 were investigated.

Validity of Weekly Administration of Carboplatin after Carboplatin-Induced SIADH: Two Case Reports and Literature Review.

Chemotherapy-induced severe hyponatremia is a life-threatening condition. Platinum-based agents play a key role in ovarian cancer treatment but are more likely to cause hyponatremia than other anticancer agents. The optimal strategy for treating ovarian cancer in cases of severe platinum agent-induced hyponatremia remains unclear.

A Case of Torsion in an Otherwise-Normal Ovary with a Giant Hematosalpinx Larger than Enlarged Ovary: Utilization of Diagnostic Laparoscopy for the Accurate Diagnosis.

We report a case of torsion in an otherwise-normal ovary with a giant hematosalpinx. A 23-year-old woman presented with complaints of abdominal pain and nausea. At initial visit, there was few abnormal findings of imaging tests, and we made a diagnosis of ovarian hemorrhage.

Efficacy and safety of parenteral vitamin D therapy in infants and children with vitamin D deficiency caused by intestinal malabsorption.

Purpose: Oral supplementation of vitamin D can be inefficient in patients with vitamin D deficiency caused by intestinal malabsorption. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of parenteral vitamin D supplementation in infants and children with vitamin D deficiency caused by intestinal malabsorption.

Methods: This study included 11 patients with vitamin D deficiency who were unresponsive to oral vitamin D or were unable to try oral vitamin D therapy due to underlying conditions.
