The Prognostic Value of Locoregional Interventions for BRAF V600E Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: A Retrospective Cohort Analysis.

The prognostic heterogeneity in patients with BRAF V600E metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) remains poorly defined. Real-world data of 93 BRAF V600E mCRC patients from Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center were evaluated using the prognostic factors affecting overall survival (OS). Treatment of metastases served as an independent prognosticator, where curative locoregional interventions (LRIs) were associated with superior clinical outcomes (adjusted hazard ratio (HR): 0.

Application of the RCOG Risk Assessment Model for Evaluating Postpartum Venous Thromboembolism in Chinese Women: A Case-Control Study.

BACKGROUND Since China has not yet constructed its own risk assessment model (RAM) for pregnancy-related venous thromboembolism (VTE), more and more hospitals use the RCOG RAM for VTE risk prediction. However, the RCOG RAM was established based on Western populations, and its applicability in China is still uncertain. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the validity of the RCOG RAM in predicting postpartum VTE in Chinese maternity.

Laparoscopic repair of uterine rupture following successful second vaginal birth after caesarean delivery: A case report.

Background: With the increasing trend of vaginal birth after caesarean delivery (VBAC), evaluation of the feasibility and safety of a second VBAC with grand multiparity is worth considering. Intrapartum uterine rupture is diagnosed in approximately one-fifth of all VBAC cases following successful vaginal delivery. To our knowledge, no report is available on the application of laparoscopy to repair postpartum uterine rupture after a successful second VBAC in China.
