The primary objective of this study was to assess the impact of pelvic floor muscle (PFM) strengthening on the pelvic floor function in women who have experienced OASIS two years after delivery, and the secondary objective was to educate women about PFM strengthening and instruct them on the correct way to exercise. A prospective case-control study was conducted. The participants were divided into two groups: the case group (women who experienced OASIS) and the control group (women who did not experience perineal tears but had similar obstetric-related data to the case).

Background: A significant number of primiparous women lack awareness of labor epidural analgesia, resulting in lower acceptance of labor epidural analgesia. Additional prenatal education may help primiparas understand labor epidural analgesia and increase labor epidural analgesia rates. This randomized controlled trial (RCT) will evaluate the effects of an online and offline prenatal labor epidural analgesia education program for primiparas to improve their labor epidural analgesia rate and to reduce their misunderstanding of labor epidural analgesia and fear of birth.

Introduction: Extended thromboprophylaxis with low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) for 28 days is recommended in patients undergoing major abdominal or pelvic cancer surgery, but the evidence for thoracic cancer surgery is weak. We aimed to evaluate the use of pharmacological thromboprophylaxis and incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in adult patients undergoing lung cancer surgery in daily clinical practice.

Methods: Retrospective evaluation of a cohort of consecutive adult patients who had undergone lung cancer surgery.
