Objective: To assess the clinical features and the treatment result of cephalic and cervical adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC).
Method: A retrospective analysis was performed on 38 patients with cephalic and cervical ACC by their clinical manifestation, the therapy and follow-up results.
Result: We had 38 patients of operation. All patients followed up from 3 years to 13 years. The overall 3-year survival rate of patients was 71.1%, the overall 5-year survival rate of patients was 63.2%.
Conclusion: Cephalic and cervical ACC is not easy to exact diagnosis in early stage. It progresses slowly. It also has the tendency of recurrence and cancerous metastasis. Thus it, is necessary to do both thorough surgery.

Cervical balloon catheter versus Dilapan-S for outpatient cervical ripening: A randomized controlled trial.
Am J Obstet Gynecol MFM
January 2025
Division of Maternal Fetal Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital.
Background: As induction of labor increases in the United States, safe, effective outpatient cervical ripening has been explored as a method to decrease the inpatient time burden. The most effective method of outpatient mechanical cervical ripening remains unclear.
Objective: To evaluate if Dilapan-S is non-inferior to cervical balloon for outpatient cervical ripening (CR) based on change in Bishop score.
Determining anatomically-safe corridors for placement of lateral mass screws in the first cervical vertebra of the Emirati population - a CT study.

The first cervical vertebra (C1) is atypical in shape and bears a complex relationship with important neurovascular structures such as the vertebral artery and cervical spinal cord which are at risk of injury during misplaced screw fixation of C1. Placement of screws into the lateral mass of C1 vertebra is performed for stabilization of the craniovertebral junction. The objective of this study was to describe ideal screw dimensions, precise entry points, safe bony corridors, and ideal trajectories for placement of lateral mass screws in the Emirati population.

Objectives: To compare the values of ultrasound and clinical parameters for predicting outcomes of induction of labor (IOL) among healthy nulliparous women with a singleton, term cephalic pregnancy.
Methods: The cervical length, cervical strain elastography, posterior cervical angle, head-perineum distance, Bishop score, and maternal parameters were assessed before IOL with a combined method-Foley catheter and Misoprostol perorally. The main outcome was vaginal delivery.

Article Synopsis
- Over the past decade, intrapartum ultrasound (ITU) has gained attention for monitoring labor, but its application in low- and middle-income countries remains limited; the angle of progression (AOP) is the most researched parameter, with few studies suggesting the importance of other ITU measurements.
- This study aimed to evaluate the predictive accuracy of AOP and head perineal diameter (PD) for vaginal delivery, as well as the impact of changes in these measurements during the first stage of labor.
- Results showed that AOP ≥ 120° and PD ≥ 2.7 cm significantly correlated with vaginal delivery, with AOP changes (>10°) having the highest accuracy (81%), indicating that ITU provides valuable insights
