Abstract
Pelvic floor dysfunctions are a wide range of disorders in the gynaecological, lower urinary and gastrointestinal tracts that affect the structure and/or function of the pelvic organs. The objective of this study was to carry out a cross-cultural adaptation and a psychometric analysis of the Spanish version of the Australian Pelvic Floor Questionnaire. Observational study divided into two main phases: (1) translation and cross-cultural adaptation and (2) psychometric tests. Women runners from all over the Spanish territory, from different federations, clubs and levels were recruited. Participants: 424 female runners, native Spanish, over 18 years of age and who had been practicing running for more than 6 months. The instruments used in this study were the Australian Pelvic Floor Questionnaire, Female Sexual Function Index, King Health Questionnaire, Quality of Life SF-12 and EuroQoL 5-D. The Spanish version of Australian Pelvic Floor Questionnaire has proven to be an understandable and easy-to-use tool. The general internal consistency of the questionnaire was 0.972 and the intraclass correlation coefficient ranged between ICC 0.596-0.960. The Spanish version of Australian Pelvic Floor Questionnaire is a valid and reliable measure that can be used clinically to assess pelvic floor dysfunctions among the female Spanish population.

Kraemer BF, Hennis I, Karge A, Kraemer AK, Dreyer TF, Kiechle M, Kuschel B, Bronger H. Platelet mitochondrial membrane depolarization reflects disease severity in patients with preeclampsia. Mol Med 2022; 28:51. [PMID: 35508969 PMCID: PMC9066965 DOI: 10.1186/s10020-022-00472-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2021] [Accepted: 04/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Thrombocytopenia is a feared complication of preeclampsia (PE) that can additionally complicate the disease course and that carries a poor prognosis. The disease mechanisms of PE on a platelet level are poorly understood and only few platelet-based markers have been investigated. In sepsis, platelet mitochondrial membrane depolarization, a sensitive and early indicator of mitochondrial dysfunction and platelet cell death, correlates with disease severity and outcome as shown in previous studies. The aim of this study was to investigate platelet mitochondrial membrane potential (Mmp-Index) by flow-cytometry in patients with preeclampsia compared to controls and to assess its value in correlation with disease severity of PE and during follow-up after delivery. METHODS In this prospective translational case-control study, platelet Mmp-Index was measured in PE (n = 16) by flow cytometry in living platelets in simultaneous comparison to healthy pregnant (n = 32) and non-pregnant controls (n = 16) and was individually reassessed after delivery to investigate recovery of platelet mitochondrial function. Subgroup analysis of patients with severe and non-severe PE was performed. Six patients with isolated gestational hypertension were also included for comparative analysis. RESULTS Platelet Mmp-Index in patients with symptomatic preeclampsia (Mmp-Index non-severe PE 0.72 ([0.591; 0.861]; p = 0.002) was significantly reduced compared to healthy pregnant controls (Mmp-Index 0.97 [0.795; 1.117]) and even more pronounced in patients with severe PE (n = 6) (Mmp-Index severe PE 0.542 [0.361; 0.623]; p = 0.03). In the severe PE group, complementary measurements of platelet Annexin V- and CD62 (P-Selectin) surface expression showed apoptosis of platelet populations in the majority of patients. Platelet Mmp normalized after delivery within few days. Patients with isolated gestational hypertension showed normal Mmp-Index values. CONCLUSIONS This study shows for the first time that platelet Mmp-Index is a quantifiable, easy-to-measure intracellular marker of platelet mitochondrial function in vital cells that reflects disease severity of preeclampsia. For future investigations, platelet Mmp may serve as a prognostic marker that may aid clinical risk stratification and adds novel information on potential mechanisms for thrombocytopenia in preeclampsia.

[PMID: 35444472 PMCID: PMC9015043 DOI: 10.2147/ijwh.s350433] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2021] [Accepted: 03/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To evaluate the surgery outcomes of fetoscopic laser ablation (FLA) for selective umbilical cord in treating twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) with special conditions and neonatal outcomes post-operation. Methods A prospective study, 21 monochorionic diamniotic (MCDA) twins diagnosed with TTTS stage II–IV according to Quintero classification from 16 to 26 weeks of gestation, among that, 12 cases of TTTS stage II with selective intrauterine growth restriction (sIUGR), 6 cases of TTTS stage II with proximate cord insertions, 3 cases of TTTS stage IV underwent fetoscopic laser ablation for the selective fetal reduction at Hanoi Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital from September 2019 to July 2021. Complications and surgical outcomes were noted. Prenatal care was carried out every 2 weeks post operation until birth. Newborn neurologic complications were assessed at birth, three months, and six months after birth using Denver II test and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Results The mean gestational age at operation was 20.30 weeks. The average operation duration was 39.52 minutes. No complications of operation, such as bleeding or infection, were recorded. The mean gestational age at birth was 34.70 ± 4.33 weeks, with a mean duration of 12.97 ± 6.87 weeks between intervention and delivery. The survival rate of newborns after the operation was 90.48%. There were two stillbirths (9.52%) within seven days after the operation. No short-term neurological complications have been reported with follow-up of the newborn to 6 months after birth. Conclusion Our study showed that fetoscopic laser ablation of selected fetal reduction surgery for treatment of special conditions of TTTS had no complications of operation, high neonatal survival result (90.48%), no short-term neurological complications. This should be considered for TTTS in cases of indication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the benefits of nedaplatin treatment in patients with a history of hypersensitivity reactions to carboplatin. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with ovarian, fallopian, and peritoneal cancers and with a history of hypersensitivity to carboplatin between January 2010 and December 2016 at the Department of Gynecology in the Saitama Medical Center associated with Jichi Medical University. We studied the response rate to treatment with a nedaplatin-based regimen compared to that of a carboplatin regimen. Fisher's exact test was used to determine statistical significance. RESULTS Thirty-one patients with a past hypersensitivity to carboplatin were treated with nedaplatin-based regimen, while ten patients were treated with other drugs. The response rates in the nedaplatin- and non-nedaplatin-treated patient groups were 71.4% and 30.0%, respectively (P = 0.021). Among all the patients, only one experienced hypersensitivity reaction to nedaplatin. CONCLUSION The nedaplatin regimen following hypersensitivity to carboplatin was safe, feasible, and effective in achieving complete or partial response.

Abstract
Platinum-based chemotherapeutic agents are commonly used in the treatment of several cancers. While effective, they are often discontinued due to toxicities and hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs) that occur more frequently with repeated exposure. Following discontinuation of one agent, therapy may be continued with a second platinum salt, though the cross-reactivity between agents in this class is not well understood. This is particularly true for alternative routes of administration such as hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). In this case report, we describe the use of cisplatin during HIPEC in a patient who previously experienced an HSR to systemic oxaliplatin. The patient tolerated HIPEC including 200 mg cisplatin for 1 hour without any adverse effects and did not require a desensitization protocol prior to therapy. This case suggests that HIPEC with platinum-based agents can be performed in patients with prior HSRs to systemic therapy, though further studies are needed to understand safety parameters, the cross-reactivity between agents and the necessity of skin testing or desensitization protocols.
