Abstract
BACKGROUND Value analysis of a small-molecule fluorescent probe for methylation detection in different cervical lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS (1) The grayscale values of distinct lesion tissues were remarkably distinct among the four groups (p < 0.05). The comparison of the grayscale value between the two groups showed that the CA group noticeably exceeded the LSIL and cervicitis groups, and the HSIL group was apparently higher than the LSIL and cervicitis groups (p < 0.05); (2) The mean grayscale values of the enrolled subjects were calculated with 55.21 as the midline, with >55.21 as positive and ≤55.21 as negative. RESULTS The results showed that the positive rate of the cervicitis group was 0.00%, the LSIL group 67.74%, the HSIL group 83.33%, and the CA group 100.00%. The results among the four groups were notably distinct (p < 0.05); (3) The comparison among DAPI, probe, bright, and merged images of cervicitis, LSIL, HSIL, and CA indicated that different cervical lesions were with quite various stains. CONCLUSION The grayscale value, positive rate, and stained picture of distinct cervical lesions were remarkably different. The small-molecule fluorescent probe has a good value in differentiating cervical lesions and can be considered for popularization and application.

[PMID: 39104879 PMCID: PMC11298462 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyt.2024.1383029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/28/2024] [Indexed: 08/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Gynecological cancers are prevalent malignancies among females, and surgical intervention is the primary therapeutic approach offering the possibility of a definitive cure. Recent research has highlighted the susceptibility of gynecological cancer patients to experiencing anxiety symptoms during the perioperative and postoperative phases, with this psychological condition being linked to suboptimal recovery following surgery. Nevertheless, certain interventions have shown promise in mitigating perioperative and postoperative anxiety in gynecological cancer patients. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive review to collect the existing evidence on this subject. Through a systematic search across six common databases, we screened and included 28 pertinent studies. The current review emphasizes the elevated occurrence of perioperative and postoperative anxiety among patients with gynecological cancers (i.e., uterine, cervical, ovarian, endometrial, and vulval cancers). Specific nursing interventions (i.e., crisis intervention nursing, multidisciplinary collaborative continuous nursing, psychological nursing, comprehensive psychological nursing, reminiscence therapy involved care, cognitive behavioral stress management, hospital-family integrated continuation nursing, high-quality nursing care, relaxation-focused nursing program, and relaxation/counseling intervention) and psychotropic medications may serve as dependable approaches to mitigate perioperative and postoperative anxiety. This study represents a novel contribution to the literature by providing a characterization of perioperative and postoperative anxiety in the context of gynecological oncology. The findings underscore the significance of addressing perioperative and postoperative anxiety as a critical clinical concern for individuals with gynecological cancers, emphasizing the need for further research to develop effective interventions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE During radical pelvic surgeries fibers of the autonomic pelvic nervous network can be accidentally damaged leading to significant visceral sequelae, which dramatically affect women's quality of life because of urinary, anorectal, and sexual postoperative dysfunctions.1,2 Direct visualization is one way to preserve hypogastric nerves(HNs), pelvic splanchnic nerves(PSNs), and the bladder branches from the inferior hypogastric plexus(IHP). However, the literature lacks critical photos and/or illustrations that are necessary to understand the precise anatomy needed to preserve the pelvic autonomic fibers. DESIGN Narrated laparoscopic video footage for identifying, dissecting, and preserving the autonomic nerve bundles during pelvic surgery. SETTING Tertiary level hospital - "IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori", Milano, Italy. INTERVENTIONS Visceral pelvic innervation is established by the superior hypogastric plexus(SHP) located anteriorly to the aortic bifurcation and the median sacral vessels and carries mostly sympathetic fibers. SHP divides in front of the sacrum into the right and left HN. At the level of the paracervix, the HNs join the parasympathetic PSNs coming out from sacral root S2, S3, S4 to form the IHP.2-5 Here, we performed laparoscopic surgery, before "Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer" trial (LACC) era, identifying key anatomic landmarks useful to highlight the path of the most commonly encountered autonomic pelvic nerves in gynecologic radical surgery: during the narration we describe and illustrate the procedure to identify all autonomic pelvic nerves, the sympathetic fibers, the PSNs, and the bladder branch emerging from the IHP in order to preserve their anatomic and functional integrity. This technique is anatomically and surgically indicated for adequate removal of the parametrial issues and vagina while preserving the total pelvic nervous system. CONCLUSION Nerve-sparing surgery reduces bowel-, bladder- and sexual- dysfunction without decreasing surgical efficacy.1,2 To accomplish safe and effective surgery, comprehension of the three dimensional structure of the vascular and nerve anatomy in the pelvis is essential. This video provides a great resource to educate surgeons, especially the youngest ones, about the retroperitoneal nervous networking: we identified the autonomic nerve pathway from adjacent tissues along the pathway consisting of cardinal, sacro-uterine, rectouterine/vaginal, and vesico-uterine ligaments.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION With the advancements in cancer prevention and diagnosis, the proportion of newly diagnosed early-stage cervical cancers has increased. Adjuvant therapies based on high-risk postoperative histopathological factors significantly increase the morbidity of treatment complications and seriously affect patients' quality of life. OBJECTIVES Our study aimed to establish a diagnostic nomogram for vaginal invasion (VI) among early-stage cervical cancer (CC) that can be used to reduce the occurrence of positive or close vaginal surgical margins. METHODS We assembled the medical data of early-stage CC patients between January 2013 and December 2021 from the Fujian Cancer Hospital. Data on demographics, laboratory tests, MRI features, physical examination (PE), and pathological outcomes were collected. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were employed to estimate the diagnostic variables for VI in the training set. Finally, the statistically significant factors were used to construct an integrated nomogram. RESULTS In this retrospective study, 540 CC patients were randomly divided into training and validation cohorts according to a 7:3 ratio. Multivariate logistic analyses showed that age [odds ratio (OR) = 2.41, 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.29-4.50, P = 0.006], prognostic nutritional index (OR = 0.18, 95% CI, 0.04-0.77, P = 0.021), histological type (OR = 0.28, 95% CI, 0.08-0.94, P = 0.039), and VI based on PE (OR = 3.12, 95% CI, 1.52-6.45, P = 0.002) were independent diagnostic factors of VI. The diagnostic nomogram had a robust ability to predict VI in the training [area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.70-0.82] and validation (AUC = 0.70, 95% CI: 0.58-0.83) cohorts, and the calibration curves, decision curve analysis, and confusion matrix showed good prediction power. CONCLUSION Our diagnostic nomograms could help gynaecologists quantify individual preoperative VI risk, thereby optimizing treatment options, and minimizing the incidence of multimodality treatment-related complications and the economic burden.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) is a prognostic factor in the existing TNM classification system. The present meta-analysis assessed the role of LVSI in predicting the prognosis of stage IA to IIB cervical cancer (CC). MATERIALS AND METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library electronic databases were searched to determine relevant articles published in the English language. Our search deadline was May 2022. Critical Appraisal of Prognostic Studies was used to assess the quality for each article. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) were used to evaluate the performance of LVSI in prognosis prediction. RESULTS We enrolled 8 studies involving 25,352 patients published after 2010. Thus, high LVSI was an unfavorable factor in predicting overall survival (HR, 2.08; 95% confidence interval, 1.63-2.66; P = .006) and disease-free survival (HR, 2.20; 95% confidence interval, 1.79-2.70; P = .000) for patients with CC. However, the disease-free survival and overall survival were significantly different on univariate analysis based on the subgroup analysis stratified by analysis method, but no obvious heterogeneity was found across diverse articles. CONCLUSIONS The present study showed that LVSI predicts the poor prognostic outcome of stage IA to IIB CC. However, well-designed clinical articles should further assess the independent prognosis prediction performance of LVSI in CC.

Evaluation of non-hematologic toxicity in patients with cervical cancer after Type 3 radical hysterectomy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy: a retrospective study. Jpn J Clin Oncol 2023; 53:393-400. [PMID: 36651690 DOI: 10.1093/jjco/hyac211] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2022] [Accepted: 12/29/2022] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the safety of concurrent chemoradiotherapy after Type 3 radical hysterectomy, focusing on non-hematologic toxicity. METHODS Between January 2010 and December 2017, 236 patients diagnosed with cervical cancer Stages IB1-II (FIGO2008) and who had undergone Type 3 radical hysterectomy at the Jikei Medical University School-related four hospitals were included. Of these 236 patients, 134 had undergone adjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy after Type 3 radical hysterectomy (radical hysterectomy + concurrent chemoradiotherapy group), and 102 received no adjuvant therapy after Type 3 radical hysterectomy (radical hysterectomy group). The frequency of non-hematologic toxicities, especially lymphedema, pelvic infection, renal dysfunction, ileus and diarrhea, was investigated in the radical hysterectomy + concurrent chemoradiotherapy and radical hysterectomy groups using univariate and multivariate analyses. In these analyses, age, extent of lymph node dissection and preoperative clinical stage were included as risk factors for five complications. The risk factors for grade ≤ 2 adverse events were statistically evaluated. RESULTS The frequency of lower extremity lymphedema (22 vs. 10%), renal dysfunction (13 vs. 3%), and diarrhea (13 vs. 0%) was significantly higher in the radical hysterectomy + CRRT group than that in the radical hysterectomy group. Logistic regression analysis revealed that adjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy significantly affected the occurrence of grade ≥ 2 lymphedema (P < 0.01) and renal dysfunction (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Concurrent chemoradiotherapy after Type 3 radical hysterectomy is associated with a higher incidence of renal dysfunction, lower extremity lymphedema and diarrhea. A more appropriate adjuvant therapy needs to be established.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Radical surgery for cervical cancer has inherent benefits, and as upfront or post neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT), is extendable to locally advanced cancer cervix (LACC), with postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) for high-risk factors. Objective of the study was to compare the effectiveness and survival between non-PORT and PORT in high-risk early stages. MATERIALS AND METHODS Radical hysterectomies conducted between January 2014 and December 2017 were evaluated and followed till December 2019. Clinical, surgical-pathologic characteristics, and oncological outcomes were compared between non-PORT and PORT groups. A similar comparison was made between alive and dead patients within each group. The impact of PORT was assessed. RESULTS Of 178 radical surgeries, early-LACC constituted 70%. Most (37%) of the patients belonged to stage 1b2, while stage 2b formed 5%. Mean age of patients was 46.5 years; 69% were below 50 years of age. Abnormal bleeding (41%) was the predominant symptom, followed by postcoital (20%) and postmenopausal bleeding (12%). Upfront surgeries formed 70.2%, and the average waiting period was 1.93 months (range: 1-10 months). PORT patients were 97 (54.5%) in number and the remaining formed the non-PORT group. Mean follow-up was 34 months, with 118 (66%) alive patients. Significant adverse prognostic factors were tumors >4 cm (44.4% patients), positive margins (10%), lymphatic vascular space invasion (LVSI; 42%), malignant nodes (33%), multiple metastatic nodes averaging seven (range: 3-11), and delayed (>6 months) presentation, but not deep stromal invasion (77% patients) and positive parametrium (8.4% patients). PORT overcame the adverse effects of tumors >4 cm, multiple metastatic nodes, positive margins, and LVSI. Total recurrences (25%) were balanced for both groups, but recurrences within 2 years were significantly more for PORT. Two-year overall survival (78%) and recurrence-free survival (72%), median overall survival (21 months), and median recurrence-free interval (19 months) were significantly better for PORT, with the complication rates being similar. CONCLUSION PORT had significantly better oncological outcomes compared to non-PORT. Multimodal management is worthwhile.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The complications of radical surgery for cervical cancer can increase patient suffering and affect their quality of life. This retrospective study assessed the safety of radical hysterectomy (RH) with pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) by observing the complications of patients with cervical cancer who underwent this procedure in a single centre over 10 years. Our findings may provide experience and evidence for preventing and reducing complications. METHODS A total of 2226 cervical cancer patients who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled. All patients underwent RH + PLND. Intraoperative injury to adjacent tissues and short-term and long-term complications were recorded to analyze factors associated with the occurrence of complications. RESULTS Postoperative complications occurred in 34.41% (766/2226) of patients, including 7.68% of patients with injury to adjacent tissues, 31.45% with short-term complications, and 2.96% with long-term complications. Age, tumor size, invasion depth, parametrial invasion, lymph vascular space invasion (LVSI), lymph node metastasis, International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage, and surgical procedure were closely associated with the postoperative complications of RH + PLND (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The results of this study showed that RH + PLND for cervical cancer is safe and practical. Patients aged 40-60 years, with tumors ≥ 4 cm, invasion depth ≥ 2/3, parametrial invasion, LVSI, lymph node metastasis, FIGO stage > IB2, and who underwent open surgery were more prone to complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy (NSRH) decreases the negative postoperative consequences of radical surgery for cervical cancer, such as bladder evacuation disorders, colorectal motility disorders, and sexual dysfunction. The aim of this study was to prospectively assess the sexuality and quality of life in a group of women who underwent NSRH with lymphadenectomy for cervical cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 65 patients with early-stage cervical cancer underwent NSRH between 2014 and 2016. Patient examinations and questionnaire surveys (Female Sexual Function Index questionnaire and European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer questionnaires QLQ-C30 and QLQ-CX24) were conducted, before and one year after the surgery. RESULTS After the exclusion of 19 sexually inactive women and 10 women who received adjuvant anticancer treatment, 36 sexually active patients treated solely with nerve-sparing surgery were eligible for evaluation. The mean age was 47 years. The average preoperative vaginal length was 9.4 cm, whereas the postoperative length was shortened to 7.1 cm. This study showed no negative impact of NSRH on sexual desire, arousal, satisfaction, orgasm, pain, sexual activity, sexual enjoyment, and sexual worry. The worsening of sexual functioning was recorded during the one-year follow-up. The QLQ-C30 questionnaire confirmed postoperative improvement in global health status and role, emotional, and social functioning. CONCLUSION Our study showed using standardized questionnaires that NSRH has no negative impact on sexual desire, arousal, satisfaction, orgasm, pain, sexual activity, frequency of sexual intercourse, sexual enjoyment, and sexual worry, while only the worsening of sexual functioning was recorded. Moreover, NSRH did not cause postoperative deterioration in the quality of life parameters.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of psychological nursing intervention on the short- and long-term negative emotions and changes in the quality of life in patients with cervical cancer who underwent postoperative chemotherapy. METHODS 141 patients with cervical cancer who received postoperative chemotherapy in our hospital were recruited as the study cohort. They were divided into the study group (80 cases) and the control group (61 cases) according to the different nursing methods each underwent. The patients in the control group underwent routine nursing, and the study group also underwent psychological nursing. The changes in the quality of life and the negative emotions of the patients in the two groups before and after the intervention were compared, and the correlation between the quality of life and the negative emotions were explored. RESULTS The patients' Quality of Life Questionnaire (EROTC-QLQ-C30) and Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) scores in the two groups before the intervention were not significantly different (P > 0.05). A re-evaluation at the end of the 90 day-intervention showed that the EROTC-QLQ-C30 scores in the study group were significantly higher than they were in the control group (P < 0.05). A dynamic evaluation showed that the proportion of patients with mild anxiety in the study group was higher than it was in the control group at 30, 60, and 90 days of intervention (P < 0.05). A Spearman correlation analysis showed that the SAS scale and EROTC-QLQ-C30 scores were negatively correlated (r=-0.4438, P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The implementation of psychological intervention can help alleviate the short- and long-term negative emotions of cervical cancer patients who underwent postoperative chemotherapy, and it is feasible and conducive to the patients' quality of life. We recommend carrying out the clinical promotion and application of this psychological intervention.

Oncological Outcomes After Okabayashi-Kobayashi Radical Hysterectomy for Early and Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer. JAMA Netw Open 2020; 3:e204307. [PMID: 32379332 PMCID: PMC7206506 DOI: 10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2020.4307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2019] [Accepted: 03/02/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Importance The role of surgery in early-stage cervical cancer has been established, but it is controversial in locally advanced cervical cancer. Objective To determine whether a radical hysterectomy method with extended removal of paracervical tissue for locally advanced cervical cancer is associated with satisfactory oncological outcomes. Design, Setting, and Participants This retrospective cohort study was conducted from January 1, 2002, to December 31, 2011, and participants were patients with cervical cancer at a single tertiary center in Northern Japan. The median follow-up period was 106 months, and none of the patients were lost to follow-up at less than 60 months. Data analyses were performed from July 1, 2017, to December 31, 2018. Exposures Patients underwent radical hysterectomy using the Okabayashi-Kobayashi method. Bilateral nerve preservation was used for stage IB1/IB2 disease and unilateral nerve preservation for stage IIA/IIB if disease extension outside the uterine cervix was 1-sided. Chemotherapy was used as the choice of adjuvant treatment for patients with an intermediate or high risk of recurrence, while some patients chose or were assigned to radiotherapy. Main Outcomes and Measures Primary outcomes were the 5-year local control rate and 5-year overall survival rate along with risk factor analysis. Results Of 121 consecutive patients, 76 (62.8%) had early-stage cervical cancer in 2008 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stages IB1 and IIA1 and 45 (37.2%) had locally advanced cervical cancer in stages IB2, IIA2, and IIB. The median (range) age was 42 (26-68) years. Adjuvant radiotherapy was used in 2 patients (3%) with early-stage cervical cancer and 3 (7%) of those with locally advanced cervical cancer. The 5-year local control rates for early-stage cervical cancer and locally advanced cervical cancer were 99% and 87%, respectively. The 5-year overall survival rates for early-stage cervical cancer and locally advanced cervical cancer were 95% and 82%, respectively. Cox regression analysis showed that lymph node metastasis and histology of adeno(squamous)carcinoma were independent risk factors for the overall survival of patients with cervical cancer treated with radical hysterectomy. Conclusions and Relevance The nerve-sparing Okabayashi-Kobayashi radical hysterectomy for locally advanced cervical cancer may provide survival not inferior to radical hysterectomy or radiotherapy in published literature. The applicability of radical hysterectomy with adjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced cervical cancer needs to be validated by prospective comparative trials.

Efficacy of nerve‑sparing radical hysterectomy vs. conventional radical hysterectomy in early‑stage cervical cancer: A systematic review and meta‑analysis. Mol Clin Oncol 2019; 12:160-168. [PMID: 31929888 PMCID: PMC6951115 DOI: 10.3892/mco.2019.1959] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2019] [Accepted: 10/29/2019] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to compare the oncological outcome of nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy (NSRH) and conventional radical hysterectomy (CRH) for early-stage cervical cancer using a meta-analysis. A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted, including 4 randomized controlled trials (RCT), 8 case-control and 11 comparative cohort studies comparing the morbidity, pelvic dysfunctions and oncological outcome between the two surgical methods. A total of 23 studies were included in this meta-analysis. The studies reported data of patients affected by cervical cancer; were written in English; included ≥20 patients; and reported data of patients with a comparison of clinical outcomes between NSRH and CRH. Data were extracted and risk of bias was assessed by four independent reviewers. A total of 1,796 patients were included: 884 patients (49.2%) undergoing NSRH and 912 (50.8%) undergoing CRH. The meta-analyses were conducted using Review Manager version 5.3 software, which is designed for conducting Cochrane reviews. As regards perioperative parameters, NSRH was found to be associated with a lower intraoperative blood loss and a shorter length of hospital stay in comparison with CRH. Patients undergoing NSRH experienced lower incidence of urinary, colorectal and sexual dysfunction compared with patients undergoing CRH. However, the resected parametrial width was favorable in patients with CRH, suggesting that NSRH was inferior to CRH in terms of radicality. The 5-year disease-free and overall survival rates were similar between the two groups. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, the collected data to date demonstrated that the nerve-sparing approach guarantees minimized surgical-related pelvic dysfunction, with similar oncological outcomes as CRH. However, further RCTs should be conducted to confirm the superiority and safety of NSRH.

[PMID: 31500786 DOI: 10.1016/j.suronc.2019.05.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2019] [Revised: 04/10/2019] [Accepted: 05/10/2019] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To compare the return of bladder function and genitourinary complications after type C1 robotic nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy (C1-RRH) to type C2 robotic radical hysterectomy (C2-RRH) in gynecologic cancers. METHODS A retrospective analysis between C1-RRH (n = 42) and C2-RRH (n = 43) was performed. Operative outcomes and perioperative genitourinary complications between the two groups were analyzed. RESULTS The C1-RRH group had shorter hospitalization (0.7 vs. 1.7 days, p < 0.001) and shorter DUC (1 vs. 28 days, p < 0.001). About 76% of C1-RRH group required a catheter for less than 1 week while 84% of the C2-RRH group did for more than 1 week (54% for 1-6 weeks; 30% > 6 weeks). In spite of the short stay after surgery (95% of C1-RRH ≤ 1 day), only two patients (4.8%) in C1-RRH group were admitted again because of urinary tract infection. C1-RRH was only independent predictor for early bladder function return within 1 week after surgery. CONCLUSION The C1-RRH showed early bladder function return and feasible outcomes in spite of early discharge. It can be considered as the first surgical option in gynecologic cancer patients who need RH to preserve their bladder function.
