Preoperative predictors for residual tumor after surgery in patients with ovarian carcinoma [PDF]
Objectives: Suboptimal debulking (>1 cm residual tumor) results in poor survival rates for patients with an advanced stage of ovarian cancer. The purpose of this study was to develop a prediction model, based on simple preoperative parameters, for ...

What's New? High‐grade serous ovarian carcinoma is often diagnosed at advanced stages due to non‐specific symptoms and the lack of reliable screening methods. This proof‐of‐concept study introduces a novel TP53 mutation panel using unique molecular identifier‐based next‐generation sequencing for sensitive detection of high‐grade serous ovarian ...

Minimal invasive fixation following with radiotherapy for radiosensitive unstable metastatic spine
Background: Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has become a feasible option for patients with spinal metastasis, but the effectiveness of percutaneous pedicle screw fixation (PPSF) without decompression in patients with severe cord compression remains ...

HIF2A as a prognostic and clinical therapeutic target in ovarian clear cell carcinoma
What's New? Ovarian clear cell carcinoma is highly associated with hypoxia. Hypoxia‐inducible factor 2A (HIF2A) is a key regulator of hypoxic responses, but its role in ovarian clear cell carcinoma remains unclear. This study demonstrated the unfavorable prognostic significance of HIF2A expression in ovarian clear cell carcinoma.

Intraperitoneal chemotherapy for peritoneal metastases : an expert opinion
Introduction: The rationale for intraperitoneal (IP) drug delivery for patients with peritoneal metastases (PM) is based on the pharmacokinetic advantage resulting from the peritoneal-plasma barrier, and on the potential to adequately treat small, poorly

Microfluidics for effective concentration and sorting of waterborne protozoan pathogens [PDF]
We report on an inertial focussing based microfluidics technology for concentrating waterborne protozoa, achieving a 96% recovery rate of Cryptosporidium parvum and 86% for Giardia lamblia at a throughput (mL/min) capable of replacing centrifugation. The

BMI, Sex as Predictors of Anterolateral Thigh Free Flap Thickness for Oropharyngeal Reconstructions
This study evaluated BMI, sex, and their influence on anterolateral thigh free flap (ALTFF) thickness for oral/oropharyngeal reconstruction. Our results showed that BMI strongly correlated with flap thickness, and women had significantly thicker flaps, despite similar BMI.
