Objective: The newest findings on literature utilization relevant to gynecologic oncology were published by Thomson Reuters during June 2013 as determinants of journal standing. Our objective was to assess the different metrics reported for relative impact and cost for journals relevant to gynecologic oncology.
Methods: 55 journals were evaluated for Impact Factor (IF), 5 Year IF, Immediacy Index, Cited Half Life, Eigenfactor (EF) Score, Article Influence (AI) scores and subscription costs obtained from publisher information.
Results: CA-A Cancer Journal for Clinicians had the highest IF (101.78) & AI (24.502). The top EF cancer-specific journals were the Journal of Clinical Oncology, Cancer Research, Clinical Cancer Research and Oncogene. Rankings for Gynecologic Oncology (409 articles, 18,243 citations) were IF = 3.929, 43/55, EF = 0.038, 28/55, and AI = 1.099, 44/55, all higher than the previous year. The IF improved from the 5 year IF in 31 journals, including Gynecologic Oncology, 29/31. Subscription costs for Gynecologic Oncology compared favorably to other journals.
Conclusions: The high utilization of review information in CA-A Cancer Journal for Clinicians and Nature Review Cancer illustrated by the IF coupled with a relatively low number of articles and short cited half life indicates that they serve as a leading source of quoted cancer statistics (CA-A Cancer Journal for Clinicians). Rankings for Gynecologic Oncology and the International Journal of Gynecologic Cancer have improved. Regardless of specialty size, the Impact Factor for Gynecologic Oncology is respectably strong. The decreased IF in 44% of the journals may reflect the international economy's effect on cancer research.

Objective: Hyperglycemia, or glucose values >180 mg/dL, is associated with adverse post-operative outcomes. Our objective was to determine the impact of improving peri-operative glycemic control and evaluate infectious complications among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus undergoing open gynecologic surgery.
Methods: A multidisciplinary team standardized pre-operative screening, referral algorithms, and intra-operative and post-operative hyperglycemia management (Surgical Universal euGlycemic Attainment during Recovery initiative).

Objective: This research was undertaken to identify risk factors for the involvement of sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) in cases of endometrial cancer.
Methods: From February 2016 to April 2021, the cases of 874 women with endometrial cancer treated with the SLN algorithm at 11 institutions were analyzed in this retrospective study. Clinical and pathologic data were reviewed, and logistic regression was applied to identify predictive factors for SLN involvement.

Objective: Homologous recombination deficiency assays, guiding treatment of poly (adenosine diphosphate ribose) polymerase inhibitors, are increasingly applied in clinics. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive performance of homologous recombination deficiency status at genomic and functional perspective on the efficacy of platinum-based chemotherapy in ovarian cancer.
Methods: Between 2016 and 2019, 134 patients with high-grade ovarian cancer were retrospectively analyzed.

Objective: No biomarkers are available to predict treatment response in patients with endometrial cancers who undergo fertility-sparing treatment. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the prognostic role of molecular classification.
Methods: Patients with endometrial cancer who underwent fertility-sparing treatment with progestins between 2005 and 2021 were retrospectively identified.
