Staging laparoscopy was carried out for 12 cases of advanced primary gastric cancer to evaluate the condition of peritoneal seeding. Peritoneal seeding was indicated in five cases. Abdominal lavage sampling was positive in six cases. Among six cases with positive cytology, surgery was adopted in three cases to lessen bleeding or stricture. Chemotherapy were carried out for the other three cases. Radical lymph node resection was carried out in six cases without peritoneal seeding. Laparoscopic observation was easier and more feasible under general anesthesia than local anesthesia. Preoperative staging laparoscopy for advanced gastric carcinoma can evaluate the condition of peritoneal seeding. Based on the results, a suitable treatment plan for each patient can be determined.

Objectives: Sesamol, a polyphenolic compound isolated from roasted sesame seeds exhibits significant anti-inflammatory effect, but the molecular mechanism is poorly understood. Peritoneal macrophages play a pivotal role in the control of infections and inflammatory pathologies and are also found in injured tissues along with resident macrophages. The present study aimed to examine the anti-inflammatory effect of sesamol and the molecular mechanisms involved, particularly the role of sesamol in modulating SIRT1- and SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of NF-κB p65 using in vivo activated peritoneal macrophages.

Objective: Assessing the histology-specific prognosis of epithelial ovarian cancer (OvCa) is clinically challenging, especially in a patient population with a favorable prognosis. This study investigated the histology-specific long-term oncologic outcomes in OvCa patients who underwent complete tumor resection using a large-scale patient cohort form multiple institutions under a central pathological review system.
Methods: A regional multi-institutional study was conducted from 1986 to 2019.

This expert review provides recommendations for the cesarean technique after placental delivery to skin closure. Following placental delivery during cesarean, sponge curettage may be omitted as it has not been shown to decrease the risk of retained products of conception. Uterine irrigation and mechanical cervical dilation cannot be recommended.
