Real-world data on venous thromboembolism (VTE) in Japanese patients with gynecological cancer are lacking. The GOTIC-VTE trial aimed to evaluate the frequency of VTE-associated events and risk factors at the time of cancer diagnosis and during 1-year follow-up. From July 2017 to February 2019, patients with endometrial, cervical, ovarian, tubal, or peritoneal cancer who underwent VTE screening within 2 months before registration, were enrolled.

The ultra-wide bandgap semiconductor α-GaO can be heteroepitaxially grown on a sapphire substrate. However, due to a lattice mismatch of about 4.6% with a sapphire substrate, many dislocation defects occur in α-GaO films.

Article Synopsis
  • Fertility preservation and reproductive treatments in Japan involve significant out-of-pocket expenses for adolescents and young adults, with current healthcare policies lacking in insurance coverage for these services.
  • Patients can apply for government subsidies under specific conditions, but the costs and amounts paid vary by facility.

α-GaO films were grown on a -plane sapphire substrate by HCl-supported mist chemical vapor deposition with multiple solution chambers, and the effect of HCl support on α-GaO film quality was investigated. The growth rate monotonically increased with increasing Ga supply rate. However, as the Ga supply rate was higher than 0.
