Objectives: Our aim is to introduce the technical aspects and advantages of a new classic intrafascial supracervical hysterectomy (CISH) technique over the conventional technique.
Methods: We performed a retrospective evaluation (Canadian Task Force classification II-2) of 200 women who underwent conventional CISH technique (100 cases), between March 2000 and September 2000, or the new CISH technique (100 cases) between May 2002 and November 2002. The charts of these 200 women were reviewed regarding patient characteristics, indications, uterine weight, estimated blood loss, operating time, and hemoglobin change.
Results: The women who underwent the new CISH had significantly shorter operating time as compared with operating time for the conventional method. Although no significant difference existed in the estimated blood loss, the hemoglobin change, which is an objective sign of blood loss, was significantly smaller using the new CISH technique than using the conventional CISH technique.
Conclusions: The new CISH technique is safer, more convenient, faster, and results in less blood loss than the conventional technique, especially when the uterus is markedly enlarged by a large myoma, the ovarian ligament is too short, or the ovary and uterus are very closely adherent.

Background: The detection of drug-specific activation of T cells in the lymphocyte transformation test (LTT) is mainly based on cell proliferation or cytokine secretion. However, the LTT presents with a varying sensitivity and specificity. The aim of our study was to analyse the genome wide gene expression of PBMC to identify drug allergy-specific gene regulation patterns.

Article Synopsis
- Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) is a major complication in critically ill patients, and this study aims to understand how choline metabolism genes (CMGs) are related to SIC for better treatment options.
- Researchers analyzed a dataset of patients with SIC and healthy controls to identify key genes associated with this condition, discovering three critical hub CMGs: HIF-1α, DGKD, and PIK3R1, with HIF-1α significantly linked to patient mortality.
- The study's findings suggest HIF-1α could serve as a useful biomarker for early detection and understanding of SIC's pathogenesis, providing new avenues for treatment strategies.
Diagnosis of hydatidiform moles using and : A retrospective study.
Int J Reprod Biomed
September 2024
Maternal-Fetal Medicine Research Center, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran.
Article Synopsis
- The study utilized chromogenic in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry to distinguish between partial hydatidiform mole (PHM), complete hydatidiform mole (CHM), and non-molar hydropic abortion (HA) in products of conception (POCs).
- A retrospective analysis of 44 POCs revealed a high accuracy rate, with Kappa agreement at 95.4%, effective in diagnosing the conditions and differentiating between triploid and diploid specimens.
- The findings suggest these methods could serve as reliable surrogate markers for chromosomal ploidy, prompting future research on fresh specimens and comparing results with other diagnostic techniques like flow cytometry and fluorescence in situ hybridization.
Resolution of acute inflammation induced by monosodium urate crystals (MSU) through neutrophil extracellular trap-MSU aggregate-mediated negative signaling.
J Inflamm (Lond)

Department of Internal Medicine, National Taiwan University Hospital, No. 7, Chung-Shan South Road, Taipei, 10002, Taiwan.
Background: Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) activation by monosodium urate crystals (MSU) is crucial to acute gouty arthritis and subsequent spontaneous remission within 7-10 days. Activated PMNs release neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) that entrap MSU crystals, forming NET-MSU aggregates. Whether NET-MSU aggregates contribute to the resolution of acute inflammation remains to be elucidated.

The retina is a light-sensitive tissue, and intensive light exposure leads to light-induced retinal damage. It is pointed out that photoreceptor damage is responsible for the decrease in retina function. The aim of this study was to detect the main genes and biological terms which are involved in retinal response to intensive light exposure.
