further investigation is required. The trial aimed to investigate the effectiveness of exogenous melatonin as an adjuvant to pregabalin for relief of pain in patients suffering from painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN). This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was carried out between October 2019 and December 2020 in an outpatient specialty clinic in Iran. One-hundred-three type 2 diabetic patients suffering from PDN were randomized into either the melatonin group (n = 52) or the placebo group (n = 51). Besides pregabalin at a dose of 150mg per day, patients started with melatonin or an identical placebo, at a dose of 3mg/day at bedtime for 1week, which was augmented to 6mg/day for further 7weeks. The primary outcomes were changes in mean NRS (numerical rating scale) pain score from baseline to endpoint and responder rate (patients with a reduction of 50% and higher in average pain score compared with baseline). Secondary endpoints were changes in mean NRS pain-related sleep-interference score, overall improvement evaluated by ents with PDN. However, confirmation of these results requires further studies. The present results showed that melatonin as an adjunct therapy to pregabalin might be helpful for use in patients with PDN. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate.html However, confirmation of these results requires further studies. We aim to evaluate whether upper limb (UL) circumference (ULC) and UL swelling sensation (ULSS) performed shortly after surgery or later on during follow-up can predict long-term/persistent forms of lymphedema in women who underwent surgery for breast cancer. Eighty-five women completed at least 24 months of follow-up. At each follow-up visit (1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after surgery), patients were tested for lymphedema using ULC and ULSS. Two different approaches to ULC were compared (1) a "positive" lymphedema diagnosis if a difference ≥ 2 cm between the affected and contralateral UL was detected in at least two contiguous measurement points (MPs) and (2) a "positive" result if just one MP ≥ 2 cm. Patients were also questioned about their perception of weight, swelling, and/or tension (ULSS). The gold standard for long-term lymphedema was a water displacement difference between the UL ≥ 200 mL 24 months after surgery (ULWD). Twenty-four months after surgery, 19 (22.4%) women were diagnosed with long-term lymphedema. Using 24-month data, comparison of log-likelihoods denoted a clear superiority of the ULC approach 1 compared with 2 for the diagnosis of long-term lymphedema (p < 0.001). Using approach 1, the best prediction of a woman developing long-term lymphedema if she had a positive ULC in the follow-up was obtained at 6 months after surgery (posterior probability of 60%). Our study reveals that performing ULC 6 months after surgery, regarding as "positive" only women with a difference ≥ 2 cm at two contiguous MPs, is the best strategy to identify women at increased risk of later developing permanent forms of lymphedema.

The syndrome is caused by heterozygous truncating variants in the last exon, exon 33, of the NOTCH3 gene. Here, we present a 2-year-old girl for whom an early genomic analysis allowed us to recognize the presence of lateral meningoceles and to begin early monitoring of her condition for possible neurological complications. She had a characteristic facial appearance, hyperextensibility of the skin and mobility of the joints, and developmental delays. Given that lateral meningocele syndrome is a rare syndrome, the existence of lateral meningoceles is suspected only when the causative gene is detected by genetic testing. MRI scans are unlikely to be performed in infancy in the absence of neurological symptoms suggestive of meningoceles. No formal guidelines have been established for the neurosurgical indications for lateral meningocele syndrome. Given the features of hyperextensibility of the skin and hypermobility of the joints, lateral meningocele syndrome can be categorized as a connective tissue disease and may be progressive, as with the dural ectasia in Marfan syndrome and Loeys-Dietz syndrome. Watchful monitoring of dural ectasia may be warranted in patients with lateral meningocele syndrome. A time interval between diagnosis and surgery for gastric cancer is necessary, although its impact on survival remains controversial. We evaluated the impact of preoperative time interval on survival in gastric cancer patients. We enrolled 332 patients who underwent curative gastrectomy for clinical stage (cStage) I-III gastric cancer between 2012 and 2015. We separately analyzed early- (cStage I) and advanced-stage (cStages II and III) patients. Early-stage patients were divided according to preoperative time interval short (≤ 42days) and long (> 42days) groups. Advanced-stage patients were also divided into short (≤ 21days) and long (> 21days) groups. We compared the survival between the short and long groups in early- and advanced-stage patients. The median preoperative time interval was 29days, and no significant differences were found in patient characteristics between the short and long groups in early- and advanced-stage patients. In early-stage patients, the 5-year survival rates of the short and long groups were 86.5% and 88.4%, respectively (P = 0.917). In advanced-stage patients, the 5-year survival rates were 72.1% and 70.0%, respectively (P = 0.552). In multivariate analysis, a longer time interval was not selected as an independent prognostic factor in early- and advanced-stage patients. In this study, survival difference was not found based upon preoperative time interval. The results do not affirm the delay of treatment without reason, however, imperative extension of preoperative time interval may be justified from the standpoint of long-term survival.
