Abstract
This study investigated the prognostic impact of lymph node dissection (LND) in patients with stage I ovarian endometrioid carcinoma (OEC) and aimed to identify the optimal LND range for improved survival. By analyzing data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database conducted in USA and NUWA database in China, we found that patients who underwent LND in the SEER cohort exhibited significantly improved long-term survival rates compared to those who did not undergo LND, while the difference was not statistically significant in the NUWA cohort. Cox regression and restricted cubic spline analyses indicated an inverted U-shaped association between the number of LNDs and hazard ratios, identifying 29–34 lymph nodes as the optimal range. This finding suggests that performing LND within this specified range may enhance survival outcomes for patients with stage I OEC.
期刊介绍:
Science has many big remaining questions. To address them, we will need to work collaboratively and across disciplines. The goal of iScience is to help fuel that type of interdisciplinary thinking. iScience is a new open-access journal from Cell Press that provides a platform for original research in the life, physical, and earth sciences. The primary criterion for publication in iScience is a significant contribution to a relevant field combined with robust results and underlying methodology. The advances appearing in iScience include both fundamental and applied investigations across this interdisciplinary range of topic areas. To support transparency in scientific investigation, we are happy to consider replication studies and papers that describe negative results.
We know you want your work to be published quickly and to be widely visible within your community and beyond. With the strong international reputation of Cell Press behind it, publication in iScience will help your work garner the attention and recognition it merits. Like all Cell Press journals, iScience prioritizes rapid publication. Our editorial team pays special attention to high-quality author service and to efficient, clear-cut decisions based on the information available within the manuscript. iScience taps into the expertise across Cell Press journals and selected partners to inform our editorial decisions and help publish your science in a timely and seamless way.
