Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare ovarian function before and after laparoscopic hysterectomy with bilateral salpingectomy for benign lesions with two different systems of haemostasis. METHODS In this prospective randomized study comparing two types of energy used for coagulation in bilateral salpingectomy (group A: bipolar electric energy, versus group B: ultrasonic advanced energy [Harmonic®]), forty consecutive non-menopausal patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign lesions were included. Values of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), LH and FSH, antral follicle count (AFC) and ovarian vascularization on bilateral Doppler ultrasound, quality of life (questionnaire) were assessed preoperatively and at 1 and 3 months postoperatively. RESULTS Preliminary analysis showed shorter salpingectomy operating time (P<0.0001) and less bleeding (P<0.005) in group B. In group A, there was no statistical difference except a decrease in AFC at 1 and 3 months on the right ovary (P=0.04). In group B, AMH levels were significantly lower postoperatively at 3 months and LH levels were increased at 3 months (respectively P=0.02 et P=0.04). There was no statistical difference in the ultrasonographic data. Quality of life did not significantly differ in both groups. CONCLUSION Preliminary findings showed reduced AMH levels at 3months postoperatively in ultrasonic energy group whereas there was no significative menopausal symptoms. It seems important to continue this study in order to know the real effects of both energy systems on the ovarian function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The recent discovery of the earliest hominin cancer, a 1.7-million-year-old osteosarcoma from South Africa has raised the question of the origin of cancer and its determinants. We aimed to determine whether malignant and benign tumors exist in the past societies. METHODS A review of literature using Medline database and Google about benign and malignant tumors in prehistory and antiquity. Only cases with morphological and paraclinical analysis were included. The following keywords were used: cancer; paleopathology; malignant neoplasia; benign tumor; leiomyoma; myoma; breast cancer; mummies; soft tissue tumor; Antiquity. RESULTS Thirty-five articles were found in wich there were 34 malignant tumors, 10 benign tumors and 11 gynecological benign tumors. CONCLUSIONS The fact that there were some malignant tumors, even few tumors and probably underdiagnosed, in the past may be evidence that cancer is not only a disease of the modern world. Cancer may be indeed a moving target: we have likely predisposing genes to cancer inherited from our ancestors. The malignant disease could therefore appear because of our modern lifestyle (carcinogens and risk factors related to the modern industrial society).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Berberis orthobotrys Bien ex Aitch. (Berberidaceae) is a plant indigenous of Pakistan that is locally used for the treatment of hypertension. HYPOTHESIS This study evaluated the vasoactive properties of a Berberis orthobotrys root extract and its fractions, and investigated the role of the endothelium and the underlying mechanism. STUDY DESIGN An aqueous methanolic extract of Berberis orthobotrys roots was prepared and submitted to a multi-step liquid-liquid fractionation with solvents of increasing polarity. Vascular reactivity of the different fractions was assessed using porcine coronary artery rings either with or without endothelium, and in the presence or absence of specific pharmacological tools. The ability of Berberis orthobotrys extracts to affect phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity was evaluated using a radioenzymatic method and purified phosphodiesterases. RESULTS The aqueous methanol extract induced similar relaxations in coronary artery rings with and without endothelium, and, amongst the three derived preparations, the butanol fraction (BFBO) was slightly but significantly more effective than the ethyl acetate fraction and the aqueous residue in rings without endothelium. Analysis of the butanol fraction (BFBO) by LC-ELSD-MS indicated the presence of four major isoquinoline alkaloids including berberine. BFBO significantly potentiated the relaxations induced by cyclic GMP- and cyclic AMP-dependent relaxing agonists, and inhibited contractions to KCl, CaCl2, and U46619 in endothelium denuded rings. In contrast, BFBO did not affect relaxations to endothelium-dependent vasodilators. BFBO concentration-dependently inhibited the cyclic GMP-hydrolyzing activity of basal PDE1, calmodulin-activated PDE1 and PDE5, and of cyclic AMP-hydrolyzing activity of PDE3 and PDE4 with IC50 values ranging from 40 to 130µg/ml. CONCLUSION The butanol fraction of the aqueous methanol extract of Berberis orthobotrys roots induced pronounced endothelium-independent relaxations and inhibited contractile responses by acting directly at the vascular smooth muscle in the coronary artery. Moreover, BFBO potentiated relaxations induced by both cyclic GMP- and cyclic AMP-dependent vasodilators most likely due to its ability to inhibit several vascular PDEs, and in particular PDE4 and PDE5.

Abstract
Endothelial dysfunction is now well established as a pivotal early event in the development of major cardiovascular diseases including hypertension, atherosclerosis, and diabetes. The alteration of the endothelial function is often triggered by an imbalance between the endothelial formation of vasoprotective factors including nitric oxide (NO) and endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization, and an increased level of oxidative stress involving several prooxidant enzymes such as NADPH oxidase and, often also, the appearance of cyclooxygenase-derived vasoconstrictors. Preclinical studies have indicated that polyphenol-rich food and food-derived products such as grape-derived products, black and red berries, green and black teas and cocoa, and omega-3 fatty acids can trigger activating pathways in endothelial cells promoting an increased formation of nitric oxide and endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization. Moreover, intake of such food-derived products has been associated with the prevention and/or the improvement of an established endothelial dysfunction in several experimental models of cardiovascular diseases and in humans with cardiovascular diseases. This review will discuss both experimental and clinical evidences indicating that different types of food and natural products are able to promote endothelial and vascular health, as well as the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Since the recent evidence of a tubal origin of most ovarian cancers, opportunistic salpingectomy could be discussed as a prophylactic strategy in the general population and with hereditary predisposition. We aimed to survey French gynecological surgeons about their current surgical practice of prophylactic salpingectomy. METHODS An anonymous online survey was sent to French obstetrician-gynaecologists and gynecological surgeons. There were 13 questions about their current clinical practice and techniques of salpingectomy during a benign hysterectomy or as a tubal sterilization method, salpingectomy versus salpingo-oophorectomy in the population with genetic risk, salpingectomy in relationship with endometriosis and questions including histopathological considerations. RESULTS Among the 569 respondents, opportunistic salpingectomy was always performed between 42.48% and 43.44% during laparoscopic, laparoscopic-assisted vaginal or laparotomic hysterectomy and only 12.26% in case of vaginal route. In the genetic population, salpingo-oophorectomy was mainly performed. Tubal sterilization was often practiced by the hysteroscopic route. More than 90% of respondents didn't perform salpingectomy in case of endometriosis. There was not any specific tubal histopathological protocol in 71.54% of cases. CONCLUSIONS Salpingectomy may be a preventing strategy in the low- and high-risk population. The survey's responses show that salpingectomy seems to be a current practice during benign hysterectomy for more than 40% doctors. However, there is not any change with no more salpingectomy in the population with genetic risk, or in case of endometriosis or tubal sterilization.

Abstract
Epidemiological studies have shown a relationship between endometriosis and clear cell/endometrioid ovarian cancers (named "Endometriosis Associated Ovarian Cancer" or EAOC). The recent discovery of signaling pathways (especially the SWI/SNF and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathways) that linked endometriosis and EAOC could lead to the development of specific biomarkers as ARID1A to screen benign to premalignant endometriosis and to new targeted treatment. Moreover, the better understanding of the pathogenesis of the epithelial ovarian cancer arising from the Fallopian tube could allow new early prevention strategies that will be described in this review.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess toxicity profile in two stage-IB1 cervical cancer treatment strategies: surgery with and without preoperative uterovaginal pulsed dose-rate brachytherapy. METHODS A retrospective study included 45 patients presenting stage-IB1 cervical cancer without pelvic lymph-node invasion, between 2009 and 2011: 25 treated by colpohysterectomy alone (group A) and 20 with preoperative uterovaginal pulsed dose-rate brachytherapy (group B). The median follow-up was 45 and 39 months (group A and B). RESULTS Groups were comparable for age (median, 46.9 vs 47.6 years), histologic type (52% vs 65% squamous cell carcinoma) and tumor size (68% vs 60%, <2cm). In postoperative year 1, rates of urinary, digestive and gynaecological disorder were 39.1%, 8.7% and 15% respectively in group A versus 36.8%, 5.3% and 31.6% in group B and in year 2, 5.9%, 8.4% and 15% versus 5.6%, 5.1% and 27.8%. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION The present study comparing two stage-IB1 cervical cancer treatment strategies found no significant difference in early or late complications. In 2 months, there was greater grade-3 urinary toxicity (21.1%) and sexual disorder (15.8%) with preoperative brachytherapy but no significant difference. Exclusive surgery is probably preferable for the patient's quality of life.

Abstract
A recent hypothesis has stated that many ovarian cancers (especially high-grade serous histotype) could arise from the distal part of the fallopian tube. On one hand we know that risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy is the most effective prevention for ovarian cancer among BRCA mutation carriers. On the other, oophorectomy increases the relative risk for cardiovascular, osteoporotic psychosexual and cognitive dysfunctions in premenopausal women. This raises the question whether bilateral salpingectomy could be an effective strategy in the prevention of ovarian cancer in case of hereditary predisposition and in the general population. Here we discuss origin of ovarian cancer in the light of the latest molecular studies and the relative risks and benefits of a strategy of exclusive salpingectomy in comparison with the classical adnexectomy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the use of ultrasonic advanced energy in reducing the occurrence of symptomatic lymphocele and its related complications in laparoscopic extra-peritoneal para-aortic lymphadenectomy in patients with gynecological cancer. STUDY DESIGN A retrospective cohort study of consecutive patients in a tertiary referral center identified 2 groups of patients, undergoing laparoscopic extra-peritoneal para-aortic lymphadenectomy with or without the use of ultrasonic advanced energy. Surgery time, hospital stay, number of retrieved nodes and lymphocele requiring treatment were studied. Results were also compared between trained and trainee surgeons. RESULTS 163 patients were scheduled for laparoscopic extra-peritoneal para-aortic lymphadenectomy: 81 treated using bipolar energy (control group: group 1) between August 1999 and January 2005, and 82 treated using ultrasonic advanced energy (study group: group 2) between July 2010 and March 2014. The main indication (90% in group 1, 61% in group 2) was advanced cervical carcinoma (stage IB2 and above). Ultrasonic advanced energy significantly decreased operative time (p=0.001) and intra-operative bleeding (p=0.01) and increased the number of para-aortic nodes retrieved (p=0.02). There was no significant difference in hospital stay or lymphocele requiring treatment (8.6% in group 1, 8.5% in group 2: p=0.98). For senior than for junior surgeons, surgery time was shorter but not significantly (p=0.80) and postoperative lymphocele rates were identical. CONCLUSION Ultrasonic advanced energy may provide benefit in laparoscopic para-aortic lymphadenectomy, facilitating surgical ergonomics, but did not decrease post-surgery lymphocele.

Abstract
AIM OF THE STUDY Parkia biglobosa leaves are traditionally used as an antihypertensive agent in Benin. The present study assessed the vasorelaxant activity of different Parkia biglobosa leaf extracts using isolated porcine coronary artery rings. MATERIALS AND METHODS A hydroalcoholic leaf extract was submitted to a multi-step liquid-liquid fractionation with solvents of increasing polarity and the polyphenolic content of the different fractions was analyzed. Vascular reactivity of the different extracts was assessed using porcine coronary artery rings, in the presence or absence of specific pharmacological inhibitors. RESULTS The hydroalcoholic, ethyl acetate and butanolic extracts contained mainly procyanidins and monomeric flavonoids. Parkia biglobosa leaf crude extract induced a redox-sensitive endothelium-dependent relaxation mediated by both nitric oxide (NO) and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF). The fractionation of the butanolic extract generated 6 fractions, two of which induced stronger vasorelaxation than the original extract and they had a higher phenolic content. CONCLUSIONS Parkia biglobosa leaf extract is able to induce endothelium-dependent NO- and EDHF-mediated relaxation in porcine coronary artery rings. The vasorelaxant activity is dependent on their phenolic content and appears to involve mainly procyanidins.

Abstract
In the frame of cancer screening, we present a new psychological concept elaborated from our clinical practice of women affected by a breast cancer. The experience of these women is different depending on whether the cancer is discovered in an asymptomatic context or not. We introduce the concept of "anticipatrice medicine" in order to define the implication of diagnosis precocity on the therapeutic strategy, because of a modification of some main parameters which make up the ordinary personal concept. These parameters are : the time in which disease anticipates the symptom and the space where the treatment anticipates the disease. We discuss the paradoxical experience of screening which imposes a medical intervention before any symptom that is for the patient to be treated before any feeling of the disease, and to experience the disease through the experience of a treatment. The different elements of this paradoxical experience are successively identified and analysed. Finally we propose four directions of research in the field of interaction between human and medical technologies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A study on the feasibility and safety of a new surgical procedure of vaginal vault suspension using a polypropylene mesh placed in the uterovaginal septum by a posterior transobturator approach. PATIENTS AND METHODS Longitudinal study from March 2002 to January 2006 of patients treated by this new surgical procedure. Postoperative visits, including an interview and a physical examination were made at two, six and 12 months and annually thereafter. The minimal required follow-up time was 12 months up to January 2007. RESULTS Seventy-eight patients were included. Three cases of intraoperative bleeding occurred. In these cases no transfusion was required and no complications were observed later on. The mean hospital stay was five days (range 3-9). The mean follow-up time was 20.36 months (range 12-48). Six recurrences were observed in the medial compartment (8%) and two anterior recurrences (2%). There was no recurrence in the posterior compartment. New-onset moderate dyspareunia was noted in 13% of the cases and a severe in two cases. No erosion occurred. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION The analysis of our experience shows that vaginal vault suspension by posterior transobturator approach is a safe and simple procedure, and demonstrates its median efficacy. Further, this study should confirm these results over the long-term follow-up.

Abstract
We discuss collisionless electron heating in capacitive discharges excited by a combination of two disparate frequencies. By developing an analytical model, we find, contrary to expectation, that the net heating in this case is much larger than the sum of the effects occurring when the two frequencies act separately. This prediction is substantiated by kinetic simulations, which are also in excellent general quantitative agreement with the model for discharge parameters that are typical of recent experiments.

Abstract
(Z)-3,5,4'-Trimethoxystilbene is a natural polyphenol present in five different plants, Virola cuspidata, Virola elongata, Centipeda minima, Schoenus nigricans and Rheum undulatum. This molecule was prepared in a three-step sequence in good overall yield. The isomerisation from the (E)- to (Z)-isomer is performed using UV irradiation. Biological investigations were conducted on a human colon cancer cell line (Caco-2) with anti-mitotic activities. Growth was completely arrested at an added 0.4 microM level of (Z)-3,5,4'-trimethoxystilbene. This agent is 100-fold more active than resveratrol or (E)-3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene, and the mechanism of this process involves an inhibition of tubulin polymerisation in a dose dependent manner.
