RESUMO

The catalytic production of propylene via propane dehydrogenation (PDH) is a key reaction in the chemical industry. By combining operando transmission electron microscopy with density functional theory analysis, we show that the intercalation and ordering of carbon on Pt interstitials to form Pt-C solid solutions is relevant for increasing propylene production. More specifically, we found that at the point of enhanced propylene formation, the structure of platinum nanoparticles is transformed into a transient caesium chloride-type Pt-C polymorph. At more elevated temperatures, the zincblende and rock salt polymorphs seemingly coexist. When propylene production was highest, multiple crystal structures consisting of Pt and carbon were occasionally found to coexist in one individual nanoparticle, distorting the Pt lattice. Catalyst coking was detected at all stages of the reaction, but did initially not affect all particles. These findings could lead to the development of novel synthesis strategies towards tailoring highly efficient PDH catalysts.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The aim of the present study is to report a rare occurrence of a successful twin pregnancy in a woman with pure 46,XY gonadal dysgenesis. RESULT(S): A patient with Swyer syndrome (pure 46,XY gonadal dysgenesis) presented with a twin pregnancy after in vitro fertilization. Due to unidentified conditions, the patient developed selective intrauterine growth restriction in one of the fetuses. Twins were born at 33 weeks of pregnancy due to the risk of asphyxia. Nonetheless, the patient did not develop gonadal malignancies before the pregnancy and, despite receiving estrogen, remained amenorrheic. CONCLUSION(S): The aim of this case report is to show the course of twin pregnancy in patients with Swyer syndrome through assisted reproduction. Due to certain disorders in the development of their reproductive organs, such as the less mature uterus, such pregnancies may be associated with an increased risk. The above case report demonstrates the need to systematize methods of pregnancy management in patients with Swyer syndrome, such as: preparation for the pregnancy, assessment of the uterus, medications used, and necessary checkups. Capsule: This case report and review shows clinicians that patients with Swyer syndrome may become pregnant. Twin pregnancies may occur without any major problems through assisted reproduction.

RESUMO

There are still controversies around reconstructive surgeries used in POP treatment. The aim of this study was to compare the QoSL after VNTR vs. TVM surgery due to POP via the use of PISQ-12 and FSFI questionnaires. The study included a group of 121 sexually active patients qualified for reconstructive surgery due to symptomatic POP, and 50 control. The average results of PISQ-12 before and after surgery were compared using the t-test. The significance of the mean differences in demographic groups was measured using the t-test for independent samples and one-way ANOVA. The results in the demographic groups were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test and the Kruskal-Wallis test. Fifty-eight women had VNTR, while 63 had TVM. Results of PISQ-12 revealed significant improvement in the sexual life after reconstructive surgery (27.24 vs. 32.43; p < 0.001, t = 8.48) both after VNTR and TVM. There were no significant differences in the assessment of the QoSL according to PISQ-12 and FSFI results between both analyzed groups of patients (PISQ-12: VNTR vs. TVM; t-test p = 0.19 and FSFI: VNTR vs. TVM; Mann-Whitney U test p = 0.54). VNTR is the treatment of choice in the case of uncomplicated primary POP.

RESUMO

It is estimated that 31-44% of all patients with symptomatic POP and/or UI suffer from sexual dysfunction. We aimed to validate the PISQ-12 in pre-and postmenopausal women and to assess the sexual function before and after POP reconstructive surgery. One hundred and forty sexually active patients were hospitalized due to symptomatic POP and 50 healthy controls were enrolled into the study. The patients were asked to complete PISQ-12, the FSFI and Beck's depression scale questionnaires twice. The Cronbach's alpha (α) was used to estimate the internal consistency. The scores were compared using the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC). Improvement in the QoSL (quality of sexual life) was observed in each age group of women. Pre-menopausal patients' QoSL was much better, both before and after surgery (29.62 and 34.64 points, respectively). The correlation between questionnaires before surgery was 0.63, and after was -0.76. The α value for the PISQ-12 was 0.83 before the procedure and 0.80 afterwards. In all the groups, the test-retest reliability was good-ICC = 0.72. Vaginal reconstructive surgeries improve the QoSL. The only demographic factor influencing the QoSL was the menopausal status. The Polish version of the PISQ-12 is a reliable and responsive instrument for assessing the sexual function in patients with diagnosed POP and/or UI.

RESUMO

The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of different types of hysterectomy on UI symptoms, quality of life and sexual functions using dedicated questionnaires. We investigated a correlation between the urethral length (UL), UI symptoms and the length of the cervix (left after LSH and SH) with sexual functions. The study enrolled 500 consecutive women referred for hysterectomy: 121 underwent VH, 171 underwent LSH, 96 underwent SH, 68 underwent TAH, and 44 underwent TLH. The patients filled in the UI-specific questionnaires and FSFI before and 12 months after hysterectomy. The UL was measured by introital ultrasound before and 12 months after hysterectomy. Before surgery, 137 out of 399 (34.3%) patients had UI symptoms; afterwards, 139 (34.8%) indicated the same (p > 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the UL in the patients before and after the procedure, and the cervix length did not differ between patients after LSH and SH. When the entire investigated population was analyzed, a significant improvement of the QoL was found on the IIQ-7. Hysterectomy performed due to benign diseases has effects on UI regardless of the surgical technique used. The UI symptoms improved only in the patients after LSH. The UL measured 12 months after hysterectomy did not change.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The King's Health Questionnaire (KHQ) and the International Consultation on Incontinence Modular Questionnaire (ICIQ-SF) Short Form are widely used in clinical practice. The aim of this study was to assess the reliability of KHQ and ICIQ-SF in Polish women. MATERIAL AND METHODS: One hundred fifty-five women with urinary incontinence (UI) aged between 19-82 years underwent urodynamic investigation and completed both KHQ and ICIQ-SF. We performed Principal Component Analysis (PCA) using VARIMAX rotation for all questionnaire pieces to estimate the factor structure and construct the validity of the KHQ and ICIQ. PCA results were also confirmed by Spearman's correlations between KHQ and ICIQ items. Moreover, by Cronbach's alpha coefficient (α) we assessed the internal consistency of the KHQ and ICIQ. STATISTICA version 13.1 software (StatSoft, Poland), and open-source R software (version 3.4.4) were used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: Of the study group, 77 (49.6 %) patients had stress urinary incontinence (SUI), 9 (5.8%) patients had Urgency, 10 (6.45%) had OAB and 21 (13.5 %) had MUI. The factor analysis of the KHQ questions showed four main components, and ICIQ-SF- two main components. Correlations between KHQ and ICIQ-SF were from weak (0.1-0.3) to high (0.5-0.7). The KHQ's Cronbach's alpha was 0.93 and the ICIQ- 0.7. The results obtained from the questionnaire forms did not differ among study groups. CONCLUSIONS: The Polish versions of the KHQ and ICIQ-SF questionnaires have good psychometric values and are useful diagnostic tools in the population of urinary incontinent women.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The degree of lymphoceles prevention was assessed using collagen patches coated with human coagulation factors (TachoSil, Nycomed International Management GmbH, Zurich, Switzerland). The study enrolled 50 consecutive patients with endometrial and cervical cancer stages IB to II who had undergone open hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy (PL). In addition, the drainage volumes of 22 patients with hypertension were compared to that of the rest of the study population. Furthermore, occurrence of lymphocele in patients with endometrial and cervical cancer were compared after completion of adjuvant treatment. MATERIAL AND METHOD: s: Patients were simultaneously randomized in two groups: as a control (side without TachoSil applied) and study group (side with TachoSil applied). All surgical parameters were collected, and patients underwent ultrasound examination on postoperative days 1, 6, and 30, and at the end of treatment. RESULTS: The TachoSil Group showed a lower drainage volume, 30 days after surgery, while outflow of fluid occurred in 11 (22%) of all TachoSil Group cases and 22 (44%) of all control group cases. Furthermore, two patients in the control group had symptomatic lymphocele, while the same number of cases was observed in the TachoSil Group. However, the TachoSil Group demonstrated a decreased tendency to lymphocele occurrence after the end of adjuvant therapy. Here, patients with the collagen patch developed lymphocele in 12% of all cases, as opposed to 18% without TachoSil. CONCLUSIONS: TachoSil is a useful support treatment option for reducing drainage volume and preventing lymphocele development after lymphadenectomy.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Urogenital Distress Inventory-6 (UDI-6), Incontinence Impact Questionnaire-7 (IIQ-7) and The International Consultation on Incontinence (ICIQ-SF) Short Form are used to diagnose individuals with urinary incontinence (UI) and to assess the impact of the dysfunction on patient quality of life. While ICIQ-SF has fixed cutoff values-UDI-6 and IIQ-7 do not. We aimed to find the cutoff scores for UDI-6 and IIQ-7 in women with UI. METHODS: The study involved 205 women aged between 31 and 83 years-155 with, and 50 without UI symptoms. All participants completed all three questionnaires: ICIQ-SF, UDI-6 and IIQ-7. Patients were categorized according to their ICIQ-SF scores, as symptomatic ICIQ-SF ≥ 6 (n = 134) and asymptomatic ICIQ < 6 (n = 60). The Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curve was used to test how well UDI-6 allowed a discrimination between patients suffering from UI and those who do not. Area under Curve (AUC) statistic was calculated to measure the UDI-6 and IIQ-7 Total Score efficiency. RESULTS: The cutoff values were selected. On the basis of the ROC curve analysis, the UDI-6 Total Score of 33.33 and IIQ-7 Total Score of 9.52 were determined to be the optimal cutoff for distinguishing between symptomatic and asymptomatic women (AUC = 0.94-UDI-6 and 0.91-IIQ-7). CONCLUSIONS: For UDI-6 scores more than 33.33 indicate higher distress caused by UI symptoms. Moreover, the higher impact of UI on health- related quality of life is seen in women who scored 9 or more in the IIQ-7 questionnaire, and such women felt impaired quality of life. Trial registration number NCT04433715, 11.06.2020 "retrospectively registered".

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Advanced vaginal vault prolapse (VVP) can occur rarely after any type of hysterectomy. Several types of procedures have been applied to correct this defect, but optimal management is still pending. The aim of this study was to describe the surgical technique and results of four-arm transvaginal mesh (FATVM) application for advanced VVP. STUDY DESIGN: We followed up for 24 months, 160 patients with VVP > II vc (according to the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification Scale (POPQ)), who underwent FAMTVM from 2014 to2017. FAMTVM was inserted with the anterior arms through the obturator foramens and the posterior arms through the ischiorectal fossas and sacrospinal ligaments. Clinical data were prospectively collected in a customized database and retrospectively analyzed. To assess QoL SF 36, KHQ and FSFI questionnaires were used. POPQ was employed to measure degree of VVP. Non-parametric tests (The Wilcoxon signed-rank test) were applied to verify statistical hypotheses. RESULTS: According to SF 36, significant improvement was evident in almost all aspects of general QoL (PCS p = 0.002, MCS p = 0.01). KHQ showed statistically significant improvement in all domains. FSFI scores after surgery indicated significantly improvement in all domains of the questionnaire, apart from lubrication (p = 0.02). Intraoperative bladder injury occurred in 3.75 % (n = 6) of all cases. Five patients (3.1 %) complained of de novo stress urinary incontinence. VVP reoccurred in nine cases (5.6 %). Only two patients (1.25 %) saw mesh exposure after 6 months postoperative recovery. CONCLUSION: We consider FAMTVM for VVP to be safe and effective. Hence, it applied as an optional treatment, especially in patients with contraindications to laparotomy and laparoscopy.

RESUMO

The purpose of the present study was to assess the association of regulatory T cells (Tregs; CD4+ FOXP3+) and helper T lymphocytes (Th17) releasing interleukin (IL)-21 and IL-22, with the Risk of Ovarian Malignancy Algorithm (ROMA). Similar association was made with two additional tumour markers, human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) and carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) from patients serum. The presence of Tregs and Th17 was determined both in the peripheral blood and in the tissue of epithelial ovarian tumors. Mononuclear cells obtained from patient's peripheral blood (PBMCs) and from ovarian tissue were isolated by density gradient centrifugation. As a control group patients who had undergone surgery for infertility without ovarian pathology were selected. The percentage of Tregs and Th17 releasing IL-21 or IL-22 cells from both peripheral blood and tumor tissue was measured by flow cytometry. No differences in demographic parameters like body mass index, age, or gravidity were observed among the studied groups. However, an increased concentration of marker HE4 and value of ROMA was identified in individuals with ovarian cancer when compared with women with cystadenomas. Furthermore, a negative correlation between the ROMA value in the serum and Tregs from the peripheral blood of patients with cystadenoma ovarian tumors was detected. The presented work documents, for the first time, the negative association between peripheral blood Tregs and ROMA evaluation based on the tumour markers present in the serum of women with ovarian cystadenoma. Such an effect might result from the negative impact of Tregs on the inflammation process and on tumorigenesis caused by the persistent inflammation.

RESUMO

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and the associated functional disorders are a major epidemiological problem that compromises the quality of life (QoL). The aim of this study was to assess the impact of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) related to POP and vaginal native tissue repair (VNTR) on QoL. Two hundred patients with symptomatic POP were stratified into four groups according to the dominant storage phase function disorders: Urgency; stress urinary incontinence (SUI); mixed urinary incontinence (MUI), and without clinically significant symptoms from lower urinary tract (LUT). They underwent VNTR from January 2018 to February 2019. After 12 months, the QoL was assessed by the Prolapse Quality of Life (P-QoL) and visual analogue scale (VAS) questionnaires. The data were analyzed with Statistica package version 12.0 (StatSoft, Krakow, Poland), using the Kalmogorow-Smirnoff, Shapiro-Wilk W and the one-way analysis of variance with post hoc Tukey tests. The results of P-QoL showed significant improvement (p < 0.05) in all the study groups in most domains assessed before surgery and 12 months after surgery. Significant improvements in all the symptoms assessed by the VAS scale results were found in groups Urgency and MUI. The LUTS questionnaire revealed significant improvement in all voiding and post voiding symptoms in these groups. VNTR effectively eliminated LUTS and significantly improved the patients' QoL associated with POP.

RESUMO

The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of vaginal native tissue repair (VNTR) on preexisting Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) in women with symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Two hundred patients who underwent VNTR for symptomatic POP from January 2018 to February 2019 were followed up for 6 months. All patients underwent VNTR, but in the posterior compartment, the rectovaginal fascia was reconnected to the uterosacral ligaments and additionally sutured to the iliococcygeus fascia and muscle. To assess the severity and change in storage phase LUTS before and after surgery, all participants were asked to complete 3 questionnaires: the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire- Short Form (ICIQ-SF), Urogenital Distress Inventory-6 (UDI-6), and Incontinence Impact Questionnaire-7 (IIQ-7). The data were assessed with Statistica package version 12.0, using Kalmogorow-Smirnoff, W Shapiro-Wilk tests. Furthermore, one-way analysis of variance was applied with post-hoc Tukey test. The study results indicate that the majority of patients with advanced POP suffered from various LUTS. Among storage symptoms, the occurrence of urinary incontinence (UI) and urgency decreased significantly after surgery. Moreover, ICIQ-SF, UDI-6, and IIQ-7 results showed statistically significant improvement in the impact of UI on the quality of life (QoL) in the vast majority of patients after surgery. VNTR is an effective way to treat not only anatomical, but also functional problems in such patients.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) treatment has become more common in the world's health care systems, and the demand for pelvic floor disorder rehabilitation has been projected to increase by 35% between 2010 and 2030. Restitution procedures vary, but after the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notifications, the global use of mesh in vaginal surgeries has significantly decreased. The aim of this study is to show trends in urogynecological surgeries in Poland. METHODS: Retrospective analysis was performed of data obtained between 2009 and 2017 from the National Health Fund Information Centre website. Vaginal hysterectomies (VH), POP and urinary incontinence (UI) surgeries were considered. RESULTS: In the study, 327,294 hospitalizations between 2009 and 2017 were considered: 29,821 VH, 265,147 POP and 53,328 UI procedures. Between 2009 and 2015, a rapid increase in the number of POP procedures was observed (r2 = 0.94, b = 1711, p < 0.001). The following years, however, were characterized by a marked decline in the number of POP surgeries. In addition, the number of vaginal suspensions with mesh dropped by 24.7%, posterior and anterior repair by 8.5%, and posterior repair by 7.5%, but the number of anterior repair procedures increased slightly by 1.5%. Moreover, between 2015 and 2017, the number of vaginal hysterectomies decreased by 9%. The number of UI surgeries had increased between 2011 and 2015 and then remained at a relatively stable level. A similar trend was observed for tape procedures, whereas the popularity of colposuspension has declined noticeably. CONCLUSIONS: The impact of FDA notifications has been observed in Poland as a decrease in TVM surgeries.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Overactive bladder (OAB) and mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) are significant problems worldwide. Their broad definition makes them difficult to diagnose; therefore, specialists need a tool to confirm diagnosis. The Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (OABSS) is used in the objective diagnosis of OAB. We aimed to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of OABSS for patients in Poland suffering from OAB and MUI and to correlate it with UDI-6 and IIQ-7. METHODS: A total of 824 women suffering from urinary incontinence (UI) aged between 18 and 75 years were included. SUI (n = 290); OAB (n = 285) and MUI (n = 249) were confirmed by medical history and urodynamic study. Of the subjects, 821 women completed the Polish version of OABSS on two separate visits: weeks 0 and 2. In addition, they undertook UDI-6 and IIQ-7 during Week 2. The Cronbach's alpha (α) was used to estimate the internal consistency. Scores were compared using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). RESULTS: We observed statistically significant differences (p < 0.0005) between mean scores of OABSS among patients from the study groups OAB-SUI and MUI-SUI. We did not observe statistically significant differences between patients from the MUI and OAB groups (p > 0.11). Analysis also did not show statistically significant differences between visits. The internal consistency was very good: α = 0.89 (SUI); = 0.9 (OAB); = 0.82 (MUI). In all groups, test-retest reliability was excellent; ICC was >0.99. CONCLUSIONS: The Polish version of the OABSS is a reliable tool for females suffering from UI. However, OABSS does not distinguish patients with MUI from patients with OAB.

RESUMO

HYPOTHESIS/AIMS OF STUDY: Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is the second most common cause of primary amenorrhea. The ESHRE/ESGE categorizes this disorder within the class 5 uterine malformation of the female genital tract anomalies. It is characterized by congenital absence of the uterus, cervix, and upper part of the vagina in otherwise phenotypically normal 46XX females. These patients have normal ovaries, biphasic ovarian cycle, and female psychosexual identification. Laparoscopic Vecchietti's operation-surgical method in which the vagina increases in size by gradually applying traction to the vaginal vault-is one of the methods used to treat MRKH. The aim of this study was to establish the urogynecological and sexual functions after Vecchietti's operation. STUDY DESIGN MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifteen patients with MRKHS who underwent laparoscopic Vecchietti's operation were included. A control group of 15 age-matched, childless, sexually active women were examined during the same period. All patients underwent the basic evaluation of anatomical outcomes. Sexual outcomes were established by the Polish validated Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) questionnaire. Continence status was assessed by Polish validated Urinary Distress Inventory (UDI-6) and the Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7). RESULTS: Mean age of MRKH group was 22.06±5.13 yrs. Mean follow-up after surgery was 8.02±3.43 yrs. Mean age of women from control group was 22.4±4.35. Mean FSFI scores show good quality of sexual life in both groups. UDI-6 scores showed that patients after Vecchietti surgery have urogynecological problems significantly more often than healthy women do. Based on the IIQ-7, it is evident that one patient from the MRKH group (6,6%) suffers from stress urinary incontinence and the rest (20%) have rather irritative problems with the functioning of the lower urinary tract. CONCLUSION: Quality of sexual life after the Vecchietti's operation in long-term follow-up does not differ from that of healthy women, but these patients suffer more frequent from urogynecological complaints. The trial is registered with NCT03809819.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The paper is a ten case series study presenting women with complex pelvic floor disorders involving fecal incontinence (FI) with stress urinary incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse. Our study aimed at ascertaining whether FI-induced sphincteroplasty with an additional secure circular suture around the external anal sphincter muscle (EAS) may improve long term success rates. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twelve patients had scheduled urogynecological surgery and overlapping sphincteroplasty with the placement of an additional circular suture around the EAS. Of these, the status of ten women was established by way of the Cleveland Clinic Fecal Incontinence Score/Wexner Score before and about 70 months after surgery. RESULTS: Statistical analysis of fecal incontinence score showed that patients were not completely cured from FI, but were significantly better (p = 0.011). CONCLUSIONS: A circular secure suture around the external anal sphincter in FI patients may help to improve anal sphincter function.

RESUMO

Chronic graft-versus-host disease is the most common late complication following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The aim of this study was to present the outcomes of two successful vaginal reconstructions. Patient 1 received chemotherapy for leukemia and underwent bone marrow transplantation (BMT). The patient was sexually inactive for 9 years. In 2012, she was diagnosed with complete vaginal obliteration and underwent vaginal reconstruction. Patient 2 underwent chemotherapy (myeloablative therapy), was sexually inactive for 3 years and was then diagnosed with complete vaginal obliteration. In January 2013, she had vaginal reconstruction with cervical dilatation. Hormonal replacement therapy was administered to both patients. The results of dedicated questionnaires revealed decent quality-of-life and normal sexual functioning and continence status after surgery. Obliteration of the vagina after BMT can be prevented, but if it occurs, vaginal reconstruction surgery should be offered to any patients suffering from obliteration. Our results show that this therapy enables patients to have normal sexual lives without compromising their continence status.
