CEPs often require multiple therapeutic modalities and curative surgical management. Case: A patient in her late 40s presented with a persistent CEP after in-vitro fertilization (IVF). Initially, the ectopic pregnancy was treated with ultrasound-guided needle aspiration and multiple doses of methotrexate, but further approaches were necessary to resolve the case. Results: This patient had a CEP with a heartbeat and she had a very high β–human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG level). She initially responded appropriately to repeat doses of methotrexate and needle aspiration, but her β-hCG levels eventually plateaued. Eventually, definitive suction curettage, vasopressin injection, and an intracervical Foley balloon tamponade provided a successful resolution. Conclusions: This case highlights further how multimodal treatment methods are valuable for safe resolution of CEPs. The patient at first responded appropriately to multiple doses of methotrexate, which decreased her surgical risks and morbidity significantly.

Augmented reality (AR) may improve localization of such lesions and adjacent structures. Materials and Methods: For this prospective case series of women who had lymphadenectomy for gynecologic malignancies at a tertiary-care center, a 3-dimensional targeted lesions model was created. It was based on preoperative axial imaging (computed tomography [CT] or positron emission tomography [PET]) of the lesions, which were evaluated by the surgical team preoperatively. The surgeon wore an AR wireless headset, enabling real-time use of the model to assist lymph-node resection. Results: This pilot study included 7 patients: 4 had lymphadenectomy with hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy; 2 had lymphadenectomy; and 1 had lymphadenectomy during pelvic exenteration. Median age was 53 (34–70) and mean body mass index was 28.3 (± 6.5). Mean operating room time was 223 (± 130.9) minutes, mean blood loss was 398.5 (± 600.1) mL, and 1 patient needed a blood transfusion. Overall, there were no significant differences between the preoperative assessments of the sizes and locations of the lesions with AR, compared to axial imaging. Surgeons' evaluations of the model revealed that 7 (50%) indicated that the AR model was superior to axial imaging; 4 (28.6%) noted that the AR model prompted them to change their surgical approaches. AR modeling changed the surgical approaches in 2 cases and improved surgical accuracy, disease characteristics, or intra- and postoperative outcomes. Conclusions: Preoperative evaluation with AR was meaningful, compared to conventional methods in 25%–50% of cases. The effect of AR should be investigated further in a larger study.

The birds were reared for 28 days and fed basal diets with or without the inclusion of SSPP from 8 days old. There were a total of three dietary treatments supplemented with 0% (0% SSPP), 0.1% (0.1% SSPP) and 0.4% (0.4% SSPP) SSPP in basal diets. Supplementation of SSPP did not significantly affect growth or plasma biochemicals, but there was a clear indication of diet-induced microbial shifts. Beta-diversity analysis revealed SSPP supplementation-related clustering (ANOSIM: <i>r</i> = 0.31, <i>p</i> < 0.01), with an overall lower (PERMDISP: <i>p</i> < 0.05) individual dispersion in comparison to the control group. In addition, the proportions of the <i>Bacteroides</i> were increased, and the relative abundances of the families Vallitaleaceae, Defluviitaleaceae, Clostridiaceae, and the genera <i>Butyricicoccus</i> and <i>Anaerofilum</i> (<i>p</i> < 0.05) were significantly higher in the 0.4% SSPP group than in the control group. Furthermore, the linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) also showed that beneficial bacteria such as <i>Ruminococcus</i> <i>albus</i> and <i>Butyricicoccus</i> <i>pullicaecorum</i> were identified as microbial biomarkers of dietary SSPP inclusion (<i>p</i> < 0.05; | LDA effect size | > 2.0). Finally, network analysis showed that strong positive correlations were established among microbial species belonging to the class <i>Clostridia</i>, whereas <i>Erysipelotrichia</i> and <i>Bacteroidia</i> were mostly negatively correlated with <i>Clostridia</i>. Taken together, the results suggested that SSPP supplementation modulates the cecal microbial composition of broilers toward a \"healthier\" profile.</p>","PeriodicalId":44791,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF GYNECOLOGIC SURGERY","volume":"27 1","pages":"971-988"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10640930/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83235775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
