Strict vegetarian diet and pregnancy outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: The increasing adoption of strict vegetarian diets during pregnancy has raised concerns about their effects on maternal and neonatal outcomes. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the impact of strict vegetarian diets on key pregnancy outcomes, including neonatal birth weight, small-for-gestational-age (SGA) infants, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), hypertensive disorders, and gestational weight gain (GWG).

Methods: A comprehensive literature search across multiple databases yielded eight studies from various countries, involving a total of 72,284 participants.

Incidence, characteristics and outcome of therapy-related myeloid neoplasms in women with epithelial ovarian cancer after exposure to poly-ADPribose polymerase inhibitors: A cancer center experience.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) target the DNA repair pathways and have been established in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) as maintenance therapy inducing prolonged survival. However, recently published data showed that PARPi may increase the risk of therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN) including myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Herein, we investigated the incidence, characteristics, and management of t-MN among EOC patients after exposure to PARPi in a Greek Cancer Center.

Clinical characteristics and outcome of early-stage diffuse large B cell lymphoma of female genital track: A retrospective study of the Hellenic cooperative lymphoma group.

Involvement of female genital track (FGT) by diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) represents an extremely rare diagnosis. Especially data regarding early-stage disease (i.e.

Central nervous system multiple myeloma: A real-world multi-institutional study of the Greek Myeloma Study Group.

Central nervous system (CNS) involvement is a rare and aggressive complication of multiple myeloma (MM). We identified 54/4352 MM patients (1.2%), who developed CNS-MM between 2000 and 2022.

A Retrospective Observational Study of Quality of Life in a Northern Greece Population of People with Haemophilia.

Haemophilia presents a significant challenge to the quality of life of affected individuals. Evaluating the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of people with haemophilia (PwH) provides a valuable mean of assessing their perception of overall care outcomes, while also identifying influential factors across various age and condition severity demographics. This observational retrospective study determined the HRQoL of 100 adult PwH in Northern Greece through comprehensive analysis and interpretation of their HRQoL levels, particularly in domains concerning their physical, emotional, and mental well-being, obtained through the Haem-A-QoL index questionnaire.
