In comparison to traditional laparoscopic and robotic surgery, there are potential advantages of the vNOTES. This narrative review shows the use of vNOTES in contemporary gynecologic endoscopic surgery. Mechanism: MEDLINE, Scopus, and PubMed searches on these themes were conducted from 1990 to 2023 using a mix of keywords. Papers and articles were identified and included in this narrative review after the authors’ revision and evaluation. Findings in Brief: The vNOTES procedures allow a short surgery time, as well as estimated blood loss and postoperative pain. These procedures are safe and feasible in contemporary endoscopic gynecology surgery. Conclusions: The vNOTES procedures are beneficial for the patients, and to be added to other minimally invasive procedures, such as conventional laparoscopy and robotic surgery. However, further studies about the long-term outcomes of vNOTES procedures are still needed.","PeriodicalId":10312,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and experimental obstetrics & gynecology","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135413782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prenatal testing can determine the possibility of a pregnant woman giving birth to an infant with Down’s. Many invasive interventions help with early diagnosis of Down’s. Although high-risk pregnancies should be offered invasive prenatal diagnosis, the International Society for Prenatal Diagnosis encourages non-invasive prenatal screening testing (NIPT) as a primary screening test for all pregnant women, regardless of risk. The present study aimed to determine the knowledge and attitude regarding NIPT among Saudi Arabian women. Methods: This cross-sectional study involving 1028 participants living in Saudi Arabia was conducted from February to March 2023, using a re-designed questionnaire shared among women with pregnancy history. The questionnaire assessed their knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs regarding NIPT. Results: Only 14.8% of our respondents had undergone NIPT; the most common indication was a recommendation from their healthcare provider (41.7%). About 3.4% of the respondents had given birth to a child with Down syndrome, and 22% had relatives with chromosomal abnormalities or genetic diseases. Surprisingly, only 22.3% of the respondents had previously heard about NIPT. The mean knowledge score about NIPT was 2.82 ± 1.89. The mean knowledge score was found to be significantly higher among females who had undergone NIPT, were aged <30, and had high school education. Conclusions: Most Saudi Arabian women have poor knowledge about NIPT and a positive attitude toward it. Thus, the suggestion is to raise awareness about NIPT use, indications, prices, and possible complications.","PeriodicalId":10312,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and experimental obstetrics & gynecology","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135616874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to explore the invasiveness of GBS by comparing various indices of pregnant mothers and newborns. Methods: This retrospective study involved 6892 consecutive GBS screened pregnant women, and 48 GBS-positive newborns. The data of pregnant women and newborns was compared by Chi-square test and Kruskal-Wallis test. A p-value ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: After excluding the other risk factors which can cause adverse pregnancy outcomes, there were no differences between pregnant women in GBS-positive and GBS-negative groups, except the age group. In the GBS-negative and positive groups the incidence of prematurity, premature rupture of membranes (PROM), and chorioamnionitis were 1.06% and 0.74%, 7.72% and 8.14%, 0.63% and 0.74%, respectively. The corresponding p-values were 0.619, 0.263, and 0.626. The GBS-positive rate was 6.83% (201/2943) in the 19–30 years (y) group, 6.89% in the (262/3802) in the 31–40 y group, and 1.36% (2/147) in the 41–52 y group (p = 0.031). The indices in the different newborn groups exhibited significant differences. Analysis of the data revealed significant differences in delivery mode, gestational age, neonatal birth weight, and Apgar scores among the GBS-colonization, GBS-infection, and death groups (p = 0.010, 0.004, 0.022, and 0.000 < 0.05, respectively).

Methods: Overall, 4086 patients in 47 hospitals from 2004 to 2018 were divided into groups according to stage (4029 with stage IIIC1 and 57 with stage IIIC2). Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were applied to compare the 5-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) of the three initial treatments before and after propensity score matching (PSM). Results: The 5-year DFS was worse in patients with stage IIIC2 than in those with stage IIIC1 (post-PSM: 68.3% vs. 39.9%, p < 0.001). For stage IIIC1, the ARH group had better 5-year OS (post-PSM: 71.0% vs. 80.0%, p < 0.001) and DFS (post-PSM: 67.2% vs. 71.0%, p < 0.001) than the R-CT group, while the NACT group had worse 5-year DFS (post-PSM: 67.7% vs. 55.3%, p = 0.002). The 5-year OS (post-PSM: 80.9% vs. 70.5%, p < 0.001) and DFS (post-PSM: 70.7% vs. 54.1%, p < 0.001) were better in the ARH than in the NACT group.

Currently, there is no consensus on the best management of CSP. A recent proposed treatment consists in placing a cervical ripening double-balloon catheter in the uterus under ultrasound guidance. Methods: In this systematic review on cervical ripening double-balloon catheter (CRDBC) treatment for CSP, we performed a literature search in electronic databases (Scopus, PubMed, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library), from their inception until April 2023. The review was written following PRISMA guidelines for systematic reviews. Results: We identified 30 studies, and we finally analyzed 5 studies that met the inclusion criteria (one case report, two retrospective case series studies, a retrospective cohort study, and a retrospective multicentric case series). The total of pregnancies treated with CRDBC is 71, of which 8 (11%) were cervical pregnancies. The gestational age at treatment ranges from 5 + 0 to 10 + 1 gestational weeks, with variable human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels (433–64.700 IU/mL). Most of the patients (73%) received adjuvant systemic methotrexate (MTX) and the catheter dwell time ranges from 1 to 5 days. Treatment was successful in all the patients. Maternal complications, defined as the need for transfusion, vaginal bleeding resulting in readmission, or requiring further treatment occurred in a small number of patients (4.2%). Conclusions: CRDBC was successful in the treatment of early CSPs. The effectiveness and safety of this minimally invasive method is testified to a small rate of maternal complications. Further prospective studies are warranted to explore this treatment modality.

The use of antenatal corticosteroids (ACS) has been shown to reduce these risks in early preterm infants. However, the efficacy of rescue ACS in late preterm infants remains uncertain. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of rescue ACS in reducing the incidence of RDS and hypoglycemia in late preterm infants. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on women who delivered singleton late preterm infants (34 + 0 to 36 + 6 weeks of gestation) at a tertiary hospital. The inclusion criteria were completion of the initial cycle of ACS in the early preterm period (before 34 + 0 weeks of gestation). Data on maternal baseline characteristics, ACS administration, and neonatal outcomes were collected from medical records. Statistical analyses, including logistic regression and multivariate modeling, were performed to assess the association between rescue ACS and neonatal outcomes. Results: A total of 155 singleton late preterm infants were included in the study. Among them, 27.8% (43/155) received rescue ACS after 34 weeks of gestation, while 72.2% (112/155) did not. Neonates who did not receive rescue ACS had a significantly higher incidence of RDS compared to those who did (10.7% vs. 0%, p = 0.038). However, the results were not statistically significant in the multivariate analysis (odds ratio (OR), 0.07; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.00–1.48; p = 0.087). Additionally, there were no significant differences in the frequencies of hypoglycemia (glucose level ≤40 mg/dL) (8.0% vs. 9.3%, p = 0.755) and hypoglycemia (glucose level ≤60 mg/dL) (52.7% vs. 37.2%, p = 0.106) between the two groups.

CD200, an immune checkpoint, has been engineered to affect immunosuppression in ovarian cancer. However, the potential of CD200 to serve as a predictor of ovarian cancers remains unexplored. Methods: We performed dynamic measurements of exosome-mediated or serum CD200 levels at primary diagnosis, post-operation, and three cycles after chemotherapy. The receiver operating characteristic curve and cumulative survival rate were paralleled to decode the predictive and prognostic profiles. Results: Independent enrichment and identification of exosomes revealed a significant concentration of CD200, predominantly located within these exosomes. The CD200 level was elevated in non-responders compared to responders at the serial points and significantly decreased after treatment. At the 335.50 pg/mL cut-off, CD200 at primary diagnosis enabled accurate discrimination between responders and non-responders with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.94 (95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.902–0.979, p = 0.01). With the cut-off dropping from 311.00 pg/mL to 265.00 pg/mL, the AUC decreased from 0.918 (95% CI = 0.873–0.963, p = 0.02) to 0.908 (95% CI = 0.862–0.955, p = 0.02), respectively. Elevated levels of CD200 levels at both primary diagnosis and three cycles after chemotherapy were identified as independent predictors for poor progression-free survival (PFS) (hazard ratio (HR) = 2.8, 95% CI = 2.08–3.49, p = 0.01; HR = 6.7, 95% CI = 4.01–8.02, p = 0.01, respectively) and overall survival (OS) (HR = 3.5, 95% CI = 2.14–4.99, p = 0.04; HR = 5.6, 95% CI = 3.01–7.34, p = 0.01, respectively). Based on CD200 dynamics, patients were stratified into high- and low-AUC groups. High CD200-AUC was independently associated with unfavourable PFS and OS (HR = 4.6, 95% CI = 3.6–15.7, p = 0.01; HR = 3.2, 95% CI = 1.5–6.3, p = 0.01, respectively).

Methods: The study included hysterectomized women with grade ≥2 apical prolapse according to the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q) system, who presented to our center between 2019 and 2022. Out of the 48 patients included in the study, 24 underwent posterior bilateral sacrospinous ligament fixation (PB-SSLF), while the other 24 underwent anterior bilateral sacrospinous ligament fixation (AB-SSLF). Postoperative anatomical recurrence of anterior vaginal wall prolapse, according to the POP-Q system, was defined as follows: cystocele ≥ stage II (Aa or Ba ≥–1 cm), recurrent apical prolapse ≥ stage II (C ≥–1 cm), and posterior vaginal wall prolapse ≥ stage II (Ap or Bp ≥–1 cm). Postoperative follow-up visits were scheduled routinely at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after the operation, and then annually. Complications were recorded according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. Rates in the groups were compared using the Chi-square test. Independent two-group comparisons of numerical variables were performed using the Student t-test when the normal distribution assumption was met and the Mann-Whitney U test when the assumption was not met. The significance level (alpha) was set at p < 0.05. Results: No significant difference was observed in terms of postoperative anterior recurrence between the groups that underwent bilateral anterior and posterior SSLF (16.7% each). Regarding the operation durations, the group that underwent AB-SSLF had longer operation times compared to the group that underwent PB-SSLF (80 minutes and 42.5 minutes, respectively). A higher incidence of postoperative urinary dysfunction was observed in patients who underwent anterior bilateral sacrospinous ligament fixation (p = 0.012). No grade 3b or higher complications were observed according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. Conclusions: AB-SSLF is an effective method in the surgical treatment of apical and anterior pelvic prolapse. However, the anterior compartment failure rate is still a limitation. Further research is required to investigate its long-term efficacy.","PeriodicalId":10312,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and experimental obstetrics & gynecology","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135780096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Few studies discuss diagnosis and genetic counseling for fetuses identified with multiple CNVs. This cohort study aims to summarize findings of complex copy number variants identified via prenatal diagnosis along with the results of parental studies. Methods: 2746 pregnant women were included and diagnosed by chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) according to different clinical indications. A total of 12 fetuses were diagnosed with complex CNVs (a fetus identified with two or more CNVs simultaneously). Parental analysis was performed by CMA, G-band karyotype analysis, and whole-genome low-coverage mate-pair sequencing (WGL-MPS) based on the size of the fetal imbalances and method resolution. Results: Fetuses carrying complex CNVs were identified as being 0.4% (12/2746) in our cohort. The parental validation study was performed in 8 of 12 complex CNVs cases with the permission of the patients. The primary results suggested that 62.5% (5 out of 8) of fetuses with complex CNVs were from parental inheritance. In these cases, 4 out of 5 were derived from maternal or paternal balanced translocation carriers. Recurrent spontaneous abortion was found in balanced translocation carrier family. Conclusion: In this study, in 4/8 of the fetuses detected with complex CNVs was inherited from a parental balanced translocation. Given the risk of parental balanced rearrangements when fetal complex CNVs are identified, genetic counseling for future pregnancies may be useful for these families.","PeriodicalId":10312,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and experimental obstetrics & gynecology","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135943025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The incidence of psychological disorders induced by EC is also increasing. Fluoxetine is a prescribed antidepressant drug for managing mental illnesses. We retrospectively explored the effect of fluoxetine intervention on symptom checklist 90 (SCL-90), quality of life, Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA), Hamilton depression scale (HAMD), and nursing satisfaction in patients with EC undergoing surgery. Methods: One hundred patients with EC undergoing hysterectomy were selected. Based on the different clinical nursing intervention methods, the patients were categorized into a control group (n = 50) and an intervention group (n = 50). Patients in the control group were provided routine care, including nutrition guidance, basic psychological nursing, pain care, rehabilitation exercise, and complication prevention, whereas patients in the intervention group were only treated with fluoxetine based on routine nursing protocols. The differences in SCL-90, quality of life, HAMA, HAMD scores, and nursing satisfaction between the two groups were observed. Results: No significant difference was observed in the SCL-90, quality of life score, HAMA, and HAMD between the two groups before treatment. After treatment, all items in the intervention group differed from those in the control group. The SCL-90 scores of the intervention group decreased after treatment, and all subscales of SCL-90 in the intervention group were reduced. All dimensions of quality of life were elevated in the control group after treatment. The HAMA and HAMD scores of patients in the intervention group declined considerably after treatment. Conclusions: Fluoxetine intervention effectively improved the quality of life of patients with EC undergoing hysterectomy, and ameliorated signs of anxiety and depression, thus promoting the recovery of the disease.","PeriodicalId":10312,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and experimental obstetrics & gynecology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136038349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
