Colorectal cancer is the most common malignancy of the gastrointestinal tract. It is the third most common tumor in both genders and the second reason of cancer-related deaths. In recent years, tumor location has gained importance as a prognostic indicator. In this study, we aimed to analyze if there was a prognostic effect of tumor location, the pathological features, and the mutation status of patients on survival. Two-hundred and ten colorectal cancer patients aged 18 years and older were included into the study. One-hundred and forty-two patients had left-sided tumor and 68 patients had right-sided tumor. Patients who had other malignancies rather than squamous cell skin cancer and in situ cervical cancer were excluded. All statistical tests were carried out using two-sided process, and a p≤0.05 was considered statistically significant. There were 140 men and 70 women in the study. The median age of the patients was 62 years old. There was no statistically significant difference according to tumor location and survival of patients. The overall survival of patients with right-sided tumors was 60.5 months and 47.2 months for left-sided tumors. Disease-free survival of patients was 63.7 months for right-sided tumors and 46 months for left-sided ones. Auranofin in vitro Perineural invasion, grade and stage were crucial prognostic parameters. Disease-free survival was longer for female colorectal cancer patients. According to our study, survival of patients was similar regardless of tumor location. This can be explained by the different sequencing of treatment strategies and divergent population genetics.According to our study, survival of patients was similar regardless of tumor location.

To develop an assessment protocol and establish reference values of vestibulo-ocular reflex gain of the horizontal semicircular canal obtained with vHIT in a pediatric population without vestibular changes. Quantitative, non-experimental, analytical study with a non-probabilistic convenience sample. A total of 39 subjects aged 5 to 17 years were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The mean gain obtained of the horizontal right semicircular canal was 0.93 and of the left one, 1.08, with statistically significant differences between the ears. There were no statistically significant differences between the 5-to-10-year and 11-to-17-year subgroups. The vestibulo-ocular reflex gain in children neared the values found in the international scientific literature and the adult population. The protocol developed can guide beginning professionals in the otoneurological evaluation of children.The vestibulo-ocular reflex gain in children neared the values found in the international scientific literature and the adult population.

This scenario may be even worse in low- and middle-income countries, especially in Latin America, where abortion laws are already restrictive and access to services is already hampered. Our objective was to understand how different countries, with an emphasis on Latin Americans, have dealt with legal abortion services in the context of the COVID-19. Thus, we conducted a narrative review on abortion and COVID-19. The 75 articles included, plus other relevant references, indicate that the pandemic affects sexual and reproductive health services by amplifying existing problems and restricting access to reproductive rights, such as legal abortion. This impact may be even stronger in low- and middle-income countries, especially in Latin America, where access to legal abortion is normally restricted. The revision of sources in this article underlines the urgent need to maintain legal abortion services, both from women's perspective, in support of their reproductive rights, but also from that of the international commitment to achieving the Millennium Development Goals. Thereby, Latin American countries must place reproductive rights as a priority on their agendas and adapt legislation to accommodate alternative models of abortion care. Furthermore, our results underscore the need for clear information on the functioning of sexual and reproductive health services as essential for understanding the impact of the pandemic on legal abortion and to identify the groups most affected by the changes.We verified the prevalence of adequacy in prenatal care considering nutritional assistance and associated factors. It is a cross-sectional study, part of Maternar Cohort Study, conducted between 2018-2019 in Southern Brazil. Women were interviewed during hospitalization in the immediate postpartum period and data were collected from the prenatal chart. Prenatal adequacy and nutritional care were assessed according to criteria from the Brazilian Ministry of Health. Two outcome models were constructed. Outcome 1 consisted of minimal coverage (early prenatal start and minimum number of visits) and exams, and Outcome 2 comprised minimal coverage, exams, and nutritional assistance. Poisson regression was used to estimate prevalence ratios. A total of 802 women were analyzed, and we identified 57% of adequacy of Outcome 1. Unplanned pregnancy (PR = 0.76; 95%CI 0.68-0.86), parity (PR = 0.88; 95%CI 0.83-0.94) and prenatal care outside Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul State (PR = 0.80; 95%CI 0.69-0.92), were associated with lower prenatal adequacy frequencies. Outcome 2 was considered adequate for 10.2% of women. Follow-up by different professionals during prenatal care was associated with lower adequacy (PR = 0.49; 95%CI 0.28-0.86). Women with high-risk pregnancies had a higher frequency of adequacy in Outcome 1 (PR = 1.21; 95%CI 1.07-1.37) and in Outcome 2 (PR = 1.75; 95%CI 1.16-2.64). General adequacy was considered low in both outcomes. There was a lack of nutritional assistance during prenatal care. Characteristics such as pregnancy planning, lower parity, prenatal care in Porto Alegre, follow-up by the same professional and high-risk pregnancy were predictors for the adequacy of prenatal care.
