RESUMEN Definir el valor de Ca 125 para predecir citorreducción óptima en pacientes con cáncer epitelial de ovario. Estudio observacional, analítico y retrospectivo de 52 pacientes consecutivas intervenidas de cáncer de ovario epitelial en estadio clínico III y IV y que no recibieron quimioterapia preoperatoria, entre enero de 2014 y diciembre del 2018 en el Servicio de Ginecología del Hospital Carlos Alberto Seguín Escobedo, Arequipa, Perú. Se determinó sensibilidad, especificidad, valor predictivo positivo y negativo, y el área bajo la curva ROC del punto de corte de Ca 125 más adecuado para citorreducción óptima. Las pacientes tuvieron en promedio 58 años de edad, el subtipo histológico seroso fue el más frecuente con 73,1%, el estadio clínico IIIC correspondió a 65,4% de casos y se logró citorreducción óptima en 61,5% de las pacientes. La curva ROC alcanzó 78% con Ca 125 de 716,7 U/mL como el mejor punto de corte de predicción de citorreducción óptima, con sensibilidad de 75%, especificidad 75%, valor predictivo positivo 82,8% y valor predictivo negativo 65,2%. El marcador tumoral Ca 125 resultó útil en la predicción de citorreducción óptima en pacientes intervenidas de cáncer de ovario epitelial, siendo el mejor punto de corte 716,7 U/mL.
ABSTRACT To define the Ca 125 value to predict optimal cytoreduction in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer. Observational, analytical and retrospective study of 52 consecutive patients who had surgical intervention for clinical stage III and IV epithelial ovarian cancer and who did not receive preoperative chemotherapy. These patients were attended between January 2014 and December 2018 in the Gynecology Service of the Carlos Alberto Seguín Escobedo Hospital, Arequipa, Peru. Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value, and the area under the ROC curve of the most appropriate Ca 125 cutoff point for optimal cytoreduction were determined. The patients were on average 58 years old, the serous histologic subtype was the most frequent with 73.1%; clinical stage IIIC corresponded to 65.4% of cases and optimal cytoreduction was achieved in 61.5% of patients. The ROC curve reached 78% with Ca 125 of 716.7 U/mL as the best cut-off point for predicting optimal cytoreduction, with sensitivity of 75%, specificity 75%, positive predictive value 82.8% and negative predictive value 65.2%. The tumor marker Ca 125 was useful in the prediction of optimal cytoreduction in patients who underwent surgery for epithelial ovarian cancer, with the best cut-off point being 716.7 U/mL.
Résumé
Clinical data of 102 patients with premature ovarian failure admitted to Zhang Zhongjing Hospital from December 2018 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Fifty-one patients received (control group), and another 51 patients received Chinse medicine Kuntai capsule in addition to sequential estrogen progesterone therapy(study group); both groups were treated for 3 menstrual cycles. After treatment, the total effective rate of the study group was higher than that of the control group (94.1% (48/51) vs. 72.6% (37/51), χ2=4.07, P=0.044). After treatment, the proportion of patients with mild Kupperman score and serum estradiol level in both groups were increased, and the proportion in study group was higher than that in the control group. The proportion of patients with moderate and severe Kupperman score and the total score decreased after treatment in both groups, and the proportion of patients with moderate Kupperman score in the study group was lower than that in the control group. Serum luteinizing hormone and folliclestimulating hormone levels were significantly decreased, and the levels in study group were lower than those in the control group. The levels of resistance index and PI were significantly decreased after treatment in both group and the study group decrease more markedly (all P<0.05). The peak systolic flow velocity level was increased after treatment in both groups and the study group increased more markedly (all P<0.05). It is suggested that the application of Chinese medicine Kuntai capsule combined with sequential estrogen progesterone therapy can effectively improve the clinical therapeutic effect, stabilize sex hormones, uterine microcirculation and effectively alleviate the condition of patients with premature ovarian failure.

Objective:To investigate the expression levels and clinical significance of glioma-associated oncogene homolog 1 (GLI1) and sonic hedgehog signaling molecule (Shh) in the malignant transformation of ovarian endometriosis (EM).Methods:The expressions of GLI1 and Shh were detected by real-time reverse transcription (RT)-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and EnVision method in 50 cases of ovarian EM tissues, 35 cases of atypical endometriosis (aEM) and 50 cases of endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC). The expression differences of two molecular markers in the malignant transformation of ovarian EM were compared, and the relationships between two molecular markers and the clinicopathological features and prognosis of EAOC were analyzed.Results:(1) RT-PCR showed that the expression levels of GLI1 mRNA in EM, aEM and EAOC group were 1.77±0.40, 3.54±0.44, and 7.80±0.24, respectively. The expression levels of Shh mRNA were 0.95±0.21, 3.14±0.35, and 5.41±0.31, respectively. GLI1 and Shh mRNA in EAOC group were significantly higher than those in EM and aEM group (all P<0.01), and there were statistically significant differences between EM and aEM group (all P<0.01). The percentages of GLI1 in ovarian EM, aEM and EAOC were 32% (16/50), 57% (20/35), and 66% (33/50), respectively, meanwhile, the positive expression rates of Shh were 20% (10/50), 49% (17/35), and 54% (27/50), respectively (all P<0.01). GLI1 mRNA expression was positively correlated with Shh mRNA expression in EAOC tissues ( r=0.721, P<0.01). The expressions of GLI1 protein were proportionated to Shh protein in EAOC tissues ( r=0.608, P=0.001). (2) The expression of GLI1 was significantly related to the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage, cancer antigen 125 (CA 125) levels, lymph node metastasis, and Platinum resistance in EAOC patients (all P<0.05). The expression of Shh were related to FIGO stage and lymph node metastasis in EAOC patients (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that GLI1 expression was an independent risk factor for poor prognosis in EAOC patients ( P<0.05). Kaplan-meier survival analysis showed that the overall survival rate of EAOC patients with high GLI1 expression and low GLI1 expression was 12.1% and 35.3%, respectively, with statistical significance ( χ2=10.73, P<0.01). The overall survival rate of EAOC patients with high and low expression of Shh protein was 11.1% and 30.4%, in which there was statistically significant difference ( χ2=3.96, P=0.047). Conclusion:GLI1 and Shh are highly associated with the malignant transformation of ovarian EM, which may play a role in promoting malignant degeneration of ovarian EM, and the high expression of GLI1 and Shh indicates a poor prognosis in EAOC patients.

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of gynecologic imaging reporting and data system (GI-RADS) ultrasonographic stratification and three-dimensional contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (3D-CEUS) in order to distinguish malignant from benign ovarian masses. METHODS In this study, 102 patients with ovarian masses were examined by both two-dimensional ultrasound(2D-US) and 3D-CEUS. Sonographic features of ovarian masses obtained from 3D-CEUS were analyzed and compared with 2D-US. All patients with ovarian masses were confirmed by operational pathology or long-term follow-up results. RESULTS (1)The Chi-square test and multiple Logistic regression analysis confirmed that there were only eight independent predictors of malignant masses, including thick septa (≥3mm), thick papillary projections(≥7mm), solid areas, presence of ascites, central vascularization, contrast enhancement, distribution of contrast agent, and vascular characteristics of the solid part and their odds ratios which were 5.52, 5.39, 4.94, 4.34, 5.92, 7.44, 6.09, and 7.67, respectively (P<0.05). (2)These eight signs were used to combine the GI-RADS with 3D-CEUS scoring system in which the corresponding value of the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.969, which was superior to using GI-RADS lonely (Z-value=1.64, P<0.025). Using 4 points as the cut-off, the scoring system showed the performance was clearly better than using GI-RADS alone (P<0.05). (3) The Kappa value was 0.872 for two different clinicians with equal experience. CONCLUSIONS The combination of GI-RADS and 3D-CEUS scoring system would be a more effective method to distinguish malignant from benign ovarian masses.
RESUMO OBJETIVO O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar a eficácia da combinação da estratificação por ultrassonografia usando o Sistema de Relatórios e Dados de Imagem Ginecológica (GI-RADS) e ultrassonografia 3D com contraste (3D-CEUS) para diferenciar massas ovarianas benignas de malignas. METODOLOGIA Neste estudo, 102 pacientes com massas ovarianas foram examinadas usando ultrassonografia bidimensional (2D-US) e 3D-CEUS. As características ultrassonográficas das massas ovarianas obtidas com 3D-CEUS foram analisadas e comparadas com de 2D-US. Todos os pacientes com massas ovarianas tiveram o diagnóstico confirmado pelos resultados de patologia cirúrgica ou acompanhamento de longo prazo. RESULTADOS (1) O teste qui-quadrado e a regressão logística múltipla confirmaram a existência de apenas oito preditores independentes de massas malignas, incluindo septos espessos (≥3mm), projeções papilares espessas (≥7mm), áreas sólidas, presença de ascite, vascularização central, aumento de contraste, distribuição do agente de contraste e características vasculares da parte sólida e suas razões de possibilidades (OR), que foram 5,52, 5,39, 4,94, 4,34, 5,92, 7,44, 6,09 e 7.67, respectivamente (P< 0,05). (2) Esses oito preditores foram utilizados para combinar o GI-RADS com o sistema de escores da 3D-CEUS, para o qual o valor correspondente da área sob a curva (AUC) foi de 0,969, superior ao uso exclusivo do GI-RADS (valor de Z = 1,64, P < 0,025). Usando 4 pontos como corte, o sistema de escores mostrou que o desempenho foi muito melhor do que com o uso exclusivo do GI-RADS (P < 0,05). (3) O valor de Kappa foi 0,872, obtido por dois médicos diferentes com igual experiência. CONCLUSÃO A combinação do GI-RADS e do sistema de pontuação da 3D-CEUS é um método mais eficaz para distinguir massas ovarianas benignas de malignas.

Abstract OBJECTIVE: To determine the effects of the administration of 50 mg of DHEA orally daily on sexual function of menopausal patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed an experimental, clinical, prospective and longitudinal study in menopausal patients. We selected the sample from april to july 2017 with menopausal patients who attended for the first time at the clinic who met the inclusion criteria, having a final sample of 29 patients. Patients with a complete study protocol who met the entry criteria were administered 50 mg of prasterone (Biolaif™) orally daily for 12 months, with a follow-up consultation every 3 months. Descriptive statistics were used for the statistical analysis. Also, Friedman's two-dimensional analysis was used. All statistical studies were conducted in the SPSS program, v.22. RESULTS: Sexual Function Index evaluated with 29 patients at 6 months increased from an average of 10.8 to 28.1. At 12 months with 18 patients, after the treatment with 50 mg prasterone orally daily, it increased from an average of 10.6 to 29.1. CONCLUSIONS: Sexual dysfunction is an underdiagnosed health problem in patients over the postmenopausal stage. Administration of prasterone (DHEA) at a dose of 50 mg orally daily improved the domains of Female Sexual Function Index of all our patients with statistically significant results, without side effects of hyperandrogenism.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the 5-year relative survival rates in gynecological cancers diagnosed and treated in Turkey by year 2009 and to compare the results with developed countries. METHODS: Data of patients diagnosed for ovarian, corpus uteri or cervix uteri cancer at year 2009 are collected from 9 national cancer registry centers. Date of deaths are retracted from governmental Identity Information Sharing System (KPS). In order to calculate relative survival rates, national general population mortality tables are obtained from Turkish Statistical Institute (TurkStat). Hakulinen method is used for computing curves by R program. Data for European, Asian and some developed countries were obtained from official web pages. RESULTS: A total of 1,553 patients are evaluated. Among these, 713 (45.9%) are corpus uteri cancers, while remaining 489 (31.5%) are ovarian and 351 (22.6%) are cervix uteri. Five-year overall relative survival rates are 85%, 50%, and 62% for corpus uteri, ovarian, and cervix uteri, respectively. These figures are between 73%–87% for corpus uteri, 31%–62% for ovarian and 61%–80% for cervix uteri in developed countries. Stage is the most important factor for survival in all cancers. Five-year relative survival rates in corpus uteri cancers are 92%, 66%, and 38% for localized, regional, and distant metastatic disease, respectively. These figures are 77%, 57%, and 29% for ovarian; 80%, 50%, and 22% for cervix uteri. CONCLUSION: This is the first report from Turkey giving national overall relative survival for gynecological cancers from a population based cancer registry system.

Objective To explore the clinical outcomes of different mild-stimulation in poor ovarian responders in vitro culture/intracytoplasmic injection (IVF/ICSI) to provide the evidence for clinical treatment,and investigate clinical parameters including pre-ovulation rate,rate of oocytes retrieved,fertilization rate,good quality embryo rate,and pregnancy rate per cycle.Methods The clinical date of a total 180 IVF cycles of infertile patients undergone from Jan 2013 to May 2016 in medical reprodution center of Xiang Tan Central Hospital.According to the different methods of controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH),the cycles were divided into 3 groups:group A with 60 cycles of early five days using clomiphene,group B with 60 cycles of persistent using clomiphene,and group C with 60 cycles using artificial luteal-phase ovarian stimulation protocol.Results The basic situations in three groups were no significant difference (P >0.05).Compared to groups B and C,the pre-ovalution rate was more in group A (P < O.05),and the rate of oocytes retrieved,fertilization rate,good quality embryo rate,and preganacy rate per cycle were higher in groups B and C (P < 0.05).The rate of oocytes retrieved,fertilization rate,good quality embryo rate,and preganacy rate per cycle were no significant difference among gourps B and C.The good quality embryo rate and preganacy rate per cycle in groups B and C were higher than group A,and group B was higher than group A (P < 0.05).Conclusions Persistent using clomiphene or persistent using clomiphene in COH could decrease the rate of pre-ovalution,and get more rate of oocytes retrieved,good quality embryo rate,and preganacy rate per cycle.
Résumé
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the principal organelle responsible for several specific cellular functions including synthesis and folding of secretory or membrane proteins, lipid metabolism, and Ca storage. Different physiological as well as pathological stress conditions can, however, perturb ER homeostasis, giving rise to an accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the ER lumen, a condition termed ER stress. To deal with an increased folding demand, cells activate the unfolded protein response (UPR), which is initially protective but can become detrimental if ER stress is severe and prolonged. Accumulating evidence demonstrates a link between the UPR and ovarian development and function, including follicular growth and maturation, follicular atresia, and corpus luteum biogenesis. Additionally, ER stress and the UPR may also play an important role in the ovary under pathological conditions. Understanding the molecular mechanisms related to the dual role of unfolded protein response in the ovarian physiology and pathology may reveal the pathogenesis of some reproductive endocrine diseases and provide a new guidance to improve the assisted reproductive technology. Here we review the current literature and discuss concepts and progress in understanding the UPR, and we also analyze the role of ER stress and the UPR in the ovary.

BACKGROUND:Chemotherapy drugs can damage the ovarian function in women of childbearing age, and even lead to premature ovarian failure. Therefore, to improve and restore the ovarian function in patients has become an important issue. OBJECTIVE:To explore the therapeutic effect and feasibility of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel therapy against chemotherapy-induced ovarian damage. METHODS:Rat models of chemotherapy-induced premature ovarian failure were established, and injected with PKH26-labeled bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. At 15, 30, 45, 60 days after cel transplantation, five rats were selected respectively to detect folicle-stimulating hormone and estradiol levels, and then, the rats were kiled to take the right ovary for pathological examination. The number of ovarian folicles was detected under light microscope. At 30 days after cel transplantation, another two rats were selected to mate with male rats to observe the difference in the reproductive activity. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Four of 22 rats (18%) gradualy recovered their estrous cycle after cel transplantation, with the decreased folicle-stimulating hormone level and increased estradiol level. Moreover, the number of folicles was reduced. Al of these indicated that the ability to have children in rats was not damaged.These experimental findings suggest that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels can partialy improve the ovarian function of rats under chemotherapy.

El síndrome de teratoma creciente (STC) es una entidad histopatológica rara y está definida por la aparición de un teratoma maduro durante o después de la quimioterapia de un tumor maligno de células germinales no seminomatoso. Hasta la fecha han sido pocos los casos presentados en la literatura mundial. Por la baja incidencia de esta patología, presentamos el caso de una paciente joven con un teratoma inmaduro de ovario tratada con cirugía y quimioterapia, quien desarrolló posteriormente una masa pélvica con resultado histológico de teratoma maduro. El reconocimiento de esta patología es importante para evitar confusiones con el desarrollo de tumores malignos.
Growing teratoma syndrome is a rare histopathologic entity, defined by an enlarged mass of mature teratoma which appears during or after chemotherapy of a malignant nonseminomatous germ cell tumor. Few reported cases in world literature have been reported until today, due to the low incidence of this pathology. We report one patient in our hospital with immature teratoma. This patient was treated with surgical resection and chemotherapy. She had a pelvic mass and histology revealed a mature teratoma. It is important to recognize this pathology in order to avoid confusion with a developing malignancy.

Résumé
The aim of the study was to determine if diagnostic performance of CA-125 in ovarian malignancy can be improved by considering age of the patient. The study was a retrospective analysis of the medical records of 306 patients who underwent a CA-125 measurement in our Institute. Of the 306 patients, 31% had malignant ovarian diseases, 45% had benign ovarian diseases, 6% had non-ovarian gynaecological diseases and 18% had non-gynaecological diseases. A positive association was found between age and CA-125 levels in patients with ovarian diseases. Patients were divided into three age groups of 18–37 yrs, 38–56 yrs and 57–74 yrs and were given age scores as 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Biochemical predictive index (BPI) was calculated by multiplying age score and CA-125 value. Among the age groups ranging 38–56 yrs and 57–74 yrs, the CA-125 and BPI values were significantly higher in malignant ovarian diseases compared to benign ovarian diseases. ROC curve analysis revealed a cut-off of 86 for the BPI with the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value as 58%, 78%, 56% and 80% respectively. BPI had better specificity and negative predictive value compared to CA-125, can be used in the screening of ovarian pathology.

OBJECTIVES: To estimate the effect of medical conditions in the population of Korea on breast cancer risk in a case-control study. METHODS: The cases were 3242 women with incident, histologically confirmed breast cancer in two major hospitals interviewed between 2001 and 2007. The controls were 1818 women each admitted to either of those two hospitals for a variety of non-neoplastic conditions. Information on each disease was obtained from a standardized questionnaire by trained personnel. Odds ratios (ORs) for each disease were derived from multiple logistic regression adjusted for age, age of menarche, pregnancy, age of first pregnancy, and family history of breast cancer. RESULTS: Among all of the incident breast cancer patients, pre-existing diabetes (OR, 1.33; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.99 to 1.78), hypertension (OR, 1.46; 95% CI, 1.18 to 1.83), thyroid diseases (OR, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.00 to 1.58), and ovarian diseases (OR, 1.70; 95% CI, 1.23 to 2.35) were associated with an increased risk of breast cancer when other factors were adjusted for. In a stratified analysis by menopausal status, pre-existing hypertension (pre-menopause OR, 0.80; 95% CI, 0.48 to 1.34 vs. post-menopause OR, 1.87; 95% CI, 1.44 to 2.43; p-heterogeneity <0.01) and ovarian disease (pre-menopause OR, 4.20; 95% CI, 1.91 to 9.24 vs. post-menopause OR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.02 to 1.91; p-heterogeneity 0.01) showed significantly different risks of breast cancer. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest the possibility that medical conditions such as hypertension affect breast cancer development, and that this can differ by menopausal status. Our study also indicates a possible correlation between ovarian diseases and breast cancer risk.

Objective To study the different ultrasonic features in patients of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) with or without obesity based on body mass index (BMI), and to investigate whether certain hormonal factors correlate with ovarian morphology and blood flow, and to discuss the role of ultrasound combined with hormone test in the diagnosis of obese PCOS. Methods One hundred and five women with PCOS were recruited. Patients were divided into two groups according to BMI;obese PCOS group (OB-PCOS, n=32, BMI≥25 kg/m2) and non-obese PCOS (NOB-PCOS, n=73, BMI<25 kg/m2). The ultrasonic parameters of follicle number (FN), ovarian volume (Vol), resistance index (RI) of ovarian stromal blood, RI of uterine artery and serum levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), the ratio of luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone (LH/FSH), progesterone (P), estradiol (E2), free testosterone (FT), prolactin (PRL), sex hormoe binding globulin (SHBG), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), fasting insulin (FINS), the extent of insulin resistance and hyperandrogenism (HOMA-IR) were measured and compared. The correlation of the ultrasonic parameters and hormonal factors were analyzed. Results The Vol of OB-PCOS group was significantly higher than NOB-PCOS group [(12.25±4.89) ml vs (10.73±2.30) ml, t=2.20, P < 0.05]. FN and uterine artery RI of OB-PCOS group had a rising trend and RI of ovarian interstitial was on a reducing trend compared with NOB-PCOS group. But the differences were not statistically significant. The levels of FINS and HOMA-IR in OB-PCOS group [(14.82±6.45) mU/L and (3.91±3.30)] were significantly higher than those in NOB-PCOS group [(8.04±4.57) mU/L and (1.64±1.20)] (t=4.87, 3.47, respectively, both P < 0.01). And FSH in NOB-PCOS group was significantly higher than OB-PCOS group [(5.95±1.91) U/L vs (4.65±1.88) U/L, t=-2.77, P<0.01]. In POCS patients, FN was significantly associated with LH/FSH (r=0.35, P<0.01), and FT (r=0.38, P<0.01). Vol was significantly associated with LH/FSH, BMI, HOMA-IR and FPG (r=0.27, P<0.05;r=0.25, P<0.05;r=0.40, P<0.01;r=0.32, P<0.01). RI of ovarian stromal blood flow was significantly associated with SHBG (r=0.28, P<0.05). In OB-POCS group, RI of uterine artery was significantly associated with PRL (r=-0.58, P < 0.05). Vol was significantly associated with HOMA-IR (r=0.47, P < 0.05). In NOB-POCS group, FN was significantly associated with LH/FSH (r=0.33, P<0.05), and FT (r=0. 56, P<0.05). Vol was significantly associated with FT (r=0.31, P < 0.05). Conclusion There are some differences in the ultrasound and endocrine parameters between obese and non-obese PCOS patients, and some correlations exist between them.

El cistoadenoma seroso de ovario es un tipo de tumor derivado del epitelio superficial (celómico), formado por áreas quísticas. La razón del predominio de estos tumores en el ovario es un misterio. Se presenta el caso de una paciente con cistoadenoma seroso de ovario; que fue referida al Servicio de Cirugía del Hospital Provincial Docente Dr Antonio Luaces Iraola por presentar un gran aumento del volumen abdominal, de 12 meses de evolución, cuyo diagnóstico fue sospechado por hallazgo de ultrasonografía pélvica; se encontró en la sala de operaciones una tumoración gigante de 10 kg de peso que fue confirmado por anatomopatología como un cistoadenoma seroso de ovario.
Giant ovarian serous cystadenoma is a type of tumor derived from the surface epithelium (celomic), formed by cystic areas. The reason for the prevalence of these ovarian tumors is a mystery. It is reported the case of a patient with ovary serous cystadenoma that was referred to the Surgery Service of the Teaching Provincial Hospital Dr Antonio Luaces Iraola for presenting a large increase volume in abdominal, 12 months evolution, whose diagnosis was suspected by pelvic ultrasonography; a giant of 10 kg was found during surgery and diagnosis was confirmed by histopathology as an ovarian serous cystadenoma.
