o understand why some women continue to use cannabis in pregnancy despite being informed of its risks.Increasing numbers of transgender patients are opting for gender-affirming care. Since pediatric and adolescent gynaecology (PAG) providers perform the majority of vaginoplasty procedures for developmental anomalies of the female reproductive tract (such as vaginal agenesis), this commentary supports the position that PAG providers should be involved in the pre- and postoperative care of trans women.
Transabdominal ultrasound (TAU) is an easy and noninvasive way to evaluate and retrain pelvic floor muscle (PFM) function. The purpose of this study was to compare PFM activity in women with and without urinary incontinence (UI) by measuring bladder base displacement (as a marker for PFM activity) using TAU during PFM contraction, Valsalva's maneuver, and abdominal curl.

Sixty-three women, aged 20-55 years, volunteered to participate in this cross-sectional study 21 were continent and 42 had UI (21 stress urinary incontinence [SUI] and 21 mixed urinary incontinence [MUI]). Mean bladder base displacement in millimeters was measured to evaluate differences between the three groups (continent, SUI, and MUI) and also between the continent and UI groups during the performance of each maneuver.

No significant differences were seen between the three groups in bladder base elevation during PFM contraction (P > 0.05). Descent of the bladder base during Valsalva's maneuver and abdominal curl was significantly greater in women with SUI and MUI than in women in the continent group (P < 0.05). Comparison of the continent and UI groups showed no significant differences in elevation of the bladder base during PFM contraction, while descent of the bladder base was significantly greater in women with UI than in women in the continent group during Valsalva's maneuver and abdominal curl (P < 0.05).

TAU indicated that bladder base descent was greater in women with SUI and MUI than those in the continent group during the performance of maneuvers that increased intra-abdominal pressure. This effect may be due to decreased PFM performance in women with urinary incontinence.

Tamoxifen may cause proliferative effects in the endometrium. Patients on tamoxifen have an increased risk for endometriosis, but are not routinely screened for this.

A 49-year-old postmenopausal patient presented for a total laparoscopic hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy several years after initiating tamoxifen for breast cancer. She had no clinical history to suggest endometriosis, but was found to have extensive pelvic endometriosis intraoperatively with polypoid hyperplasia found on the pathology of the uterine and the ovarian tissue.

This is the first case reported of an asymptomatic patient on tamoxifen with a new diagnosis of endometriosis along with atypical hyperplasia in the ectopic tissue. The potential for pre-malignant/malignant transformation may alter the treatment course if identified following tamoxifen exposure.

Postoperative radiation therapy after breast conserving surgery in the older adult population is a matter of debate; although radiation therapy was shown to benefit these patients concerning local disease control, the absolute benefit was small and potentially negligible. RNA Synthesis inhibitor Partial breast irradiation has been introduced as an alternative treatment approach for low-risk patients. Older adult patients with early breast cancer constitute a unique population with regards to prognosis and potential comorbidities, thus minimizing treatment to maintain health-related quality of life (HRQoL) without compromising survival is extremely important. Estimates of the patient's risk of benefit and/or harm with treatment should be performed together with an assessment of baseline comorbidities, life expectancy, and care preferences. Published data suggest that radiation therapy or endocrine therapy alone resulted in excellent disease control in older women with early breast cancer, and that the combination of both treatmentsstoperative radiation therapy-alone avoids the long-term toxicity of endocrine therapy and favorably impacts on HRQoL in this population. In the current report we present the trial's background and methods, focusing on perspectives in the field of precision medicine.

Advance care planning (ACP) and completion advance care directives (ACDs) is recommended for patients with cancer. Documentation needs to be available at the point of care.

To describe the prevalence of ACDs in health records and the self-reported awareness of and engagement in ACP as reported by older Australians with cancer, and to examine the concordance between self-reported completion of and presence of documentation in participants' health records.

Prospective multi-center audit of health records, and a self-report survey of eligible participants in 51 Australian health and residential aged care services. The audit included 458 people aged ≥65years with cancer.

30% had≥ACD located in their record. 218 people were eligible for survey completion; 97 (44% response rate) completed it. Of these, 81% had a preference to limit some/all treatments, 10% wanted to defer decision-making to someone else, and 9% wanted all treatments. Fifty-eight percent of survey completers reported having completed an ACP equired. These include a systematic approach to embedding ACP into routine care, workforce education, increasing community awareness, and looking at e-health solutions to improve accessibility at the point of care.
