Background: Recently, long intergenic non-coding RNA 01296 (LINC01296) has been demonstrated to regulate the initiation and progression of several cancers, but the functions of LINC01296 in ovarian cancer still remain unclear. The objective of our study was to determine the expression, biological roles, and clinical significance of LINC01296 in ovarian cancer.
Methods: LINC01296 expression was measured in ovarian cancer tissues or cell lines. Next, the relationships between LINC01296 levels and the clinical factors of ovarian cancer, such as progression-free survival and overall survival were analyzed. Additionally, cell proliferation, migration and invasion capacities, apoptosis, cell cycle distribution were investigated after silencing of LINC01296. To confirm whether LINC01296 mediates EMT initiation in ovarian cancer cells, the effect of LINC01296 silence on E-cadherin, N-cadherin and vimentin was assessed in SKOV3 and OVCAR3 cells.
Results: We found that LINC01296 was over-expressed in ovarian cancer tissues and cell lines, when comparing with adjacent normal tissue samples and normal cells. Higher LINC01296 expression was significantly correlated with shorter progression-free survival and overall survival. For the functional experiments, knockdown of LINC01296 suppressed cell proliferation, inhibited colony formation ability, abrogated cell migration and invasion potential, and enhanced cell apoptosis. Cell cycle analysis suggested that LINC01296 positively regulated cell cycle progression in ovarian cancer cells. Moreover, western blotting analysis displayed that knockdown of LINC01296 significantly increased E-cadherin, but reduced N-cadherin and vimentin expressions in SKOV3 and OVCAR3 cells, compared with no-transfection cells.
Conclusions: LINC01296 plays an important role in promoting the progression of ovarian cancer. Over-expression of LINC01296 might function as an indicator for diagnosis and prognosis of ovarian cancer patients.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the clinicopathologic features of primary fallopian tubal carcinoma (PFTC) and high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) and explore the prognostic factors of these two malignant tumors.
Methods: Fifty-seven patients diagnosed with PFTC from 2006 to 2015 and 60 patients diagnosed with HGSOC from 2014 to 2015 with complete prognostic information were identified at Women's Hospital of Zhejiang University. The clinicopathological and surgical data were collected, and the survival of the patients was followed for 5 years after surgery.

Background: To assess the effectiveness of tumor biomarkers in distinguishing epithelial ovarian tumors (EOTs) and guiding clinical decisions across each Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) MRI risk category, the aim is to prevent unnecessary surgeries for benign lesions, avoid delays in treating malignancies, and benefit individuals requiring fertility preservation or those intolerant to over-extensive surgery.
Methods: A total of 54 benign, 104 borderline, and 203 malignant EOTs (BeEOTs, BEOTs and MEOTs) were enrolled and retrospectively assigned risk scores. The role of tumor biomarkers in diagnosing and managing EOTs within each risk category was evaluated by combining receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves with clinicopathological characteristics.

After the World Health Organization established a precise definition of mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN) in 2000, based on the presence of ovarian-type stroma, its clinical features became more apparent. Surgery for MCN, which primarily affects middle-aged women with long life expectancies, is likely to negatively impact the patient's quality of life. Although recent studies have reported a low proportion of advanced neoplasia among resected MCN (≤15%), many clinicians still recommend surgery for patients with presumed MCN without considering risk stratification for advanced neoplasia.

Management of cases of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antibody-mediated encephalitis is very challenging to anaesthesiologists as this receptor is the target of many anaesthetics. We report a woman diagnosed with anti-NMDA antibody-mediated encephalitis posted for laparotomy. She presented with generalised tonic-clonic seizures.
