AI Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the increase in cervical length over six months following LEEP for grade III cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) in 183 patients.
- Transvaginal ultrasounds showed mean cervical length increases of 2.07 mm (2 to 3 months), 5.23 mm (2 to 6 months), and 2.92 mm (3 to 6 months).
- Factors such as age, gravidity, parity, and CIN width did not influence the cervical length increase, indicating a gradual increase post-LEEP.
Article Abstract
This study aimed to determine whether the cervical length increases over a period of six months, after the loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) for grade III cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), and to identify the factors associated with an increase in the cervical length. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 183 patients who underwent the LEEP between April 2011 and March 2014, at the Department of Gynaecology, Kyosai Hospital. Transvaginal ultrasonography was performed at two, three and six months after the LEEP, and the mean increase in the cervical length between two and three months, two and six months, and three and six months were 2.07, 5.23 and 2.92 mm, respectively. The increase in the cervical length was not associated with age, gravidity, parity and the width of CIN. In conclusion, the cervical length may increase gradually over a period of six months after the LEEP.

Racial disparities in extended venous thromboembolism prophylaxis after hysterectomy.
PLoS One

Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ, United States of America.
Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant preventable cause of postoperative morbidity and mortality after major abdominopelvic surgery that calls for extended VTE prophylaxis (eVTEp). Literature suggests that significant racial disparities may exist in post-operative care.
Objective: The study sought to examine if racial disparities exist in the administration of eVTEp after hysterectomy in a statewide collaborative.

Background: In this study we explored the association of polymorphisms of glutathione s transferase gene including GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 with adverse acute normal tissue reactions resulted from radiotherapy in HNC patients. We assessed the association of GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes and Ile105Val of exon-5 and Ala114Val of exon-6 of GSTP1 gene polymorphisms with the risk of acute skin toxicity reactions after therapeutic radiotherapy in HNC patients.
Methods: Four hundred HNC patients administered with Intensity modulated radiation therapy were enrolled in this study for the evaluation of radiotherapy associated toxicity reactions.
Multidimensional characterization of craniofacial skeletal phenotype of obstructive sleep apnea in adults.

Objectives: We aimed to characterize a craniofacial skeletal phenotype (CSP) of adult obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients from a multidimensional perspective, exploring the impact of transverse skeletal discrepancy (TSD) on multivariable polysomnographic profiles.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective, cross-sectional study included 102 adult OSA patients. Sagittal, vertical, and transverse skeletal patterns were categorized on the cone beam computed tomography images.
Multimodal treatment combining neoadjuvant therapy, laparoscopic subtotal distal pancreatectomy and adjuvant therapy for pancreatic neck-body cancer: Case series.

Background: Pancreatic cancer involving the pancreas neck and body often invades the retroperitoneal vessels, making its radical resection challenging. Multimodal treatment strategies, including neoadjuvant therapy, surgery, and postoperative adjuvant therapy, are contributing to a paradigm shift in the treatment of pancreatic cancer. This strategy is also promising in the treatment of pancreatic neck-body cancer.

Objective: To evaluate in a systematic review the outcomes, benefits, and limitations of robot-assisted surgeries for paediatric neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD), as robot-assisted techniques have emerged as a potential alternative, offering enhanced precision, dexterity, and visualisation.
Methods: This review was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO identifier CRD42023464849) and adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. We included studies of paediatric patients (aged <18 years) with neurogenic LUTD undergoing robot-assisted continence surgery, assessing safety and efficacy.
