Objective: To assess the relationship between pre- and postoperative high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) genotypes and hrHPV type-specific persistence and reappearance of abnormal cytology after successful conization.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed of 211 patients who were undergoing conization after hrHPV genotype testing at Tottori University Hospital between July 2009 and June 2013. Of the 211 women, 129 underwent pre- and postoperative hrHPV genotype testing and were diagnosed with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grades 1-3 with negative margins.

Results: The postoperative pathological diagnosis was CIN 1 in 8 patients, CIN 2 in 12, CIN 3 in 108 and adenocarcinoma in situ in 1 patient. Before conization, the most frequent hrHPV genotypes were HPV16 (n = 52; 40.3 %), followed by HPV52 (n = 32; 24.8 %) and HPV58 (n = 28; 21.7 %), while HPV18 was detected in 6 cases (4.7 %). Of the 23 postoperative hrHPV-positive cases, the same genotypes were detected in 10 cases while a different genotype was detected in 11 cases; type did not affect the frequency of persistent postoperative infection. The 3-year cumulative risk for the reappearance of abnormal cytology was significantly higher in postoperative hrHPV-positive patients than in postoperative hrHPV-negative patients (31.6 vs 9.7 %, P = 0.0014). A high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) was observed during the follow-up period in one patient with persistent HPV16 infection.

Conclusions: Postoperative hrHPV infection was a significant positive predictor for the reappearance of abnormal cytology and HPV16 infection-induced HSIL after treatment. Therefore, our study suggests that hrHPV genotype testing may be useful to follow-up CIN patients.

Background: Friedreich ataxia (FA) is a rare inherited neuromuscular disorder whereby most patients die of lethal cardiomyopathy and arrhythmias. Mechanisms leading to arrhythmic events in patients with FA are poorly understood.

Objective: This study aimed to examine cardiac electrical signal propagation in a mouse model of FA with severe cardiomyopathy and to evaluate effects of omaveloxolone (OMAV), the first Food and Drug Administration-approved therapy.

Department of Internal Diseases and Pediatrics, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, Ghent University, Ghent, Belgium.

Background: Over the last 20 years, pediatric hypertension (pHTN) prevalence in Western society has risen from 3.5 to 9% due to childhood overweight, obesity, and secondary kidney and cardiological conditions. Few studies have assessed commonly used antihypertensive medication lisinopril's (ACE-inhibitor) long-term efficacy and the long-term value of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) biomarkers.

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by the abnormal growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, affecting 10-15% of women of reproductive age. Pain is the most common symptom. Treatment options include surgery, which has limited effectiveness and high recurrence rates, and pharmacotherapy.

Purpose: In this report, we aim to present an unusual reappearance of hyaloidal artery remnant with atypical localization during the follow-up of an infant who underwent indirect laser photocoagulation for type 1 ROP.

Methods: Retrospective case report.

Results: We report a case of reappearance of an eccentrically located hyaloidal stalk in the macular area during the follow-up period, 2 weeks after laser photocoagulation for type 1 ROP subsequently progressed to cause foveal distortion, which is successfully removed with a lens-sparing vitrectomy.
