Women with DIE have a high rate of complications during surgical treatment and a higher risk of recurrence when they did not receive hormonal treatment or when treated with LNG-IUD after surgery.<br /><br />Women with DIE have a high rate of complications during surgical treatment and a higher risk of recurrence when they did not receive hormonal treatment or when treated with LNG-IUD after surgery.<br /><br /> This study aimed to evaluate the parents' willingness and attitudes concerning the COVID-19 vaccine.<br /><br /> This cross-sectional study was performed using a self-administered online survey, covering parents' and their children's characteristics, parents' willingness and attitudes towards the COVID-19 vaccine. A total of 1035 parents participated.<br /><br /> Analysis showed that 36.3% of parents were willing to have their children receive the COVID-19 vaccine and that 59.9% were willing to receive it themselves. In addition, 83.9% were willing to have their children vaccinated with the COVID-19 vaccine if the mortality rates associated with COVID-19 in children increased following a mutation. After adjusting for significant variables, willingness to receive the COVID-19 vaccine (AOR=24.91; 95% CI=10.93-56.76), willingness for their children to participate in a COVID-19 vaccine trial (AOR=11.87; 95% CI=2.41-58.40] and advising others to receive the COVID-19 vaccine [AOR=7.82; 95% CI=2.50-24.49] were associated with greater parents' willingness for their children to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.<br /><br /> Parents' willingness for their children to receive the COVID-19 vaccine was low. The only characteristics of either parents or children found to affect the parents' willingness for children to receive the COVID-19 vaccine was the parents being healthcare workers. Parents' willingness and positive attitudes towards the COVID-19 vaccine are factors that increase acceptance of the COVID-19 vaccine for their children.<br /><br />Parents' willingness for their children to receive the COVID-19 vaccine was low.

The majority of cases are categorized as idiopathic, especially in cases of nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA). An increasing number of genetic abnormalities have been shown to cause spermatogenic impairment with the development of microarray technologies and next-generation sequencing (NGS), moving beyond classical karyotype and polymerase chain reaction analyses of targeted genes. However, the majority of gene mutations, such as Klinefelter syndrome, azoospermia factor microdeletion, or congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens, fail to function in a one gene-one phenotype manner. Single-cell transcriptome analysis performed using human testicular samples has begun to be published, which has brought about a more comprehensive understanding of testicular pathology. NGS also enables omics approaches, which provide more powerful tools to interrogate the genome, epigenome, transcriptome, and proteome. Simultaneously, the involvement of environmental factors and comorbidities, which may potentially regulate epigenetic factors, has been shown, resulting in a more complex understanding of the pathophysiology of spermatic disorders, especially NOA. The combination of phenotypic data and large amounts of bioinformatical data obtained by NGS may provide a more comprehensive understanding of the pathophysiology of male infertility, which will contribute not only to a diagnosis but also to the proper selection of infertility treatment and the development of new treatment modalities for male infertility."This article was published whilst it was still in peer review due to a technical error at the publisher and has been temporarily removed."<br /><br /> The COVID-19 pandemic has caused interruptions to chronic disease and non-emergency treatment. The purpose of this study is to examine which socioeconomic status groups are most at risk of treatment interruption among Japanese workers.<br /><br /> This cross-sectional internet monitor study was conducted among Japanese workers on December 22-26, 2020. Out of a total of 33302 participants in the survey, 9510 (5392 males and 4118 females) who responded that they required regular treatment or hospital visits were included in the analysis. A multilevel logistic model nested in the prefecture of residence was used to estimate the odds ratio (OR) for treatment disruption. We examined separate multivariate models for socioeconomic factors, health factors, and lifestyle factors.<br /><br /> During a period of rapid COVID-19 infection, about 11% of Japanese workers who required regular treatment experienced interruptions to their treatment. The OR of treatment interruption associated with not being married compared with being married was 1.44 (95%CI 1.17-1.76); manual labor work compared with desk work was 1.30 (95%CI 1.11-1.52); loss of employment when the COVID-19 pandemic started and continued unemployment compared with being employed over the entire pandemic period was 1.62 (95%CI 1.13-2.31) and 2.57 (95%CI 1.63-4.07), respectively; and feeling financially unstable was 2.92 (95%CI 2.25-3.80).<br /><br /> Treatment interruption is a new health inequality brought about by COVID-19 with possible medium- and long-term effects, including excess mortality, morbidity, and productivity loss due to increased presenteeism.

Patients were included only if they had FIGO IIIC-IVB high-grade serous carcinoma with clinically negative lymph nodes after six NACT cycles (carboplatin-paclitaxel) and underwent complete or near complete cytoreduction. Patients with partial lymphadenectomy or bulky nodes were excluded. Patients who underwent systematic pelvic and aortic lymphadenectomy and those who did not undergo lymph node dissection were compared. Progression-free and overall survivals were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method.<br /><br /> Totally, 132 patients with FIGO IIIC-IVB epithelial ovarian carcinoma were surgically treated after NACT. Sixty patients were included (39 and 21 in the lymphadenectomy and nonlymphadenectomy group, respectively); 40% had suspicious lymph nodes before NACT. Patient characteristics, blood transfusion numbers, and complication incidence were similar between the groups. In the lymphadenectomy group, 12 patients (30.8%) had histologically positive lymph nodes and the surgical time was longer (229 vs. 164 min). The median overall survival in the lymphadenectomy and nonlymphadenectomy groups, respectively, was 56.7 (95% CI 43.4-70.1) and 61.2 (21.4-101.0) months (p=0.934); the corresponding disease-free survival was 8.1 (6.2-10.1) and 8.3 (5.1-11.6) months (p=0.878). Six patients exclusively presented with lymph node recurrence.<br /><br /> Systematic lymphadenectomy after six NACT cycles may have no influence on survival.<br /><br />Systematic lymphadenectomy after six NACT cycles may have no influence on survival.<br /><br /> Children born with esophageal atresia experience long-term neurodevelopmental deficits, with unknown origin.<br /><br /> To find associations between perioperative variables during primary esophageal atresia repair and motor function at age 5years.<br /><br /> This ambidirectional cohort study included children born with esophageal atresia who consecutively had been operated on in the Erasmus MC-Sophia Children's Hospital, University Medical Center, Rotterdam, from January 2007 through June 2013. The perioperative data of this cohort were collected retrospectively; the motor function data prospectively.<br /><br /> After exclusion of patients with syndromal congenital diseases (n=8) and lost to follow-up (n=10), the data of 53 children were included. The mean (SD) total motor function impairment z-score at 5years of age was -0.66 (0.99), significantly below normal (p&lt;.001). In multivariable linear regression analysis, number of postoperative days endotracheal intubation (B=-0.211, 95% CI -0.389 to -0.033, p=.021) was negatively associated with motor outcome, whereas high blood pressure (B=0.022, 95% CI 0.001 to 0.042, p=.038) was positively associated. Preoperative nasal oxygen supplementation versus room air (B=0.706, 95% CI 0.132 to 1.280, p=.016) was positively associated with motor outcome, which we cannot explain.<br /><br /> Motor function in 5-year-old esophageal atresia patients was impaired and negatively associated with the number of postoperative days of endotracheal intubation and positively associated with high blood pressure. Prospective studies with critical perioperative monitoring and monitoring during stay at the intensive care unit are recommended.<br /><br />Motor function in 5-year-old esophageal atresia patients was impaired and negatively associated with the number of postoperative days of endotracheal intubation and positively associated with high blood pressure.

We aimed to clarify the influence of myostatin on the prognosis of patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease-hepatocellular carcinoma (NAFLD-HCC) without cirrhosis and on the progression of liver fibrosis.<br /><br /> Serum myostatin levels were evaluated in 234 patients who underwent primary surgical resection for single HCC. To clarify the impact of myostatin on liver fibrosis, we established human primary liver fibroblasts from resected livers, and cultured them in the presence of myostatin.<br /><br /> The median age was 67.4years, the median L3 skeletal muscle mass index was 44.4cm<br /><br /> /m<br /><br /> , and the median body mass index was 23.4kg/m<br /><br /> . Eighty-two (35.0%) patients had sarcopenia (L3 skeletal muscle mass index men &lt;42, women &lt;38cm<br /><br /> /m<br /><br /> ). The etiologies of liver disease were hepatitis B virus (n=61), hepatitis C virus (n=86), and non-B non-C hepatitis (n=87) including NAFLD (n=74). High preoperative serum myostatin and vascular invasion were independent predictors of poor overall survival (OS). High serum myostatin was associated with poor OS in patients with no sarcopenia (n=152). In patients without advanced liver fibrosis (Fibrosis stage, 0-2; n=58), high levels of serum myostatin were also associated with poor OS, regardless of sarcopenia. Serum myostatin levels were increased with the progression of liver fibrosis. Liver fibroblasts were activated and produced collagen following stimulation with myostatin.<br /><br /> In patients with NAFLD-HCC without advanced liver fibrosis, high levels of serum myostatin were associated with poor OS. Myostatin activated primary fibroblasts and stimulated collagen production.<br /><br />In patients with NAFLD-HCC without advanced liver fibrosis, high levels of serum myostatin were associated with poor OS.
