Intentions to stay in the profession for urban midwives is significantly affected by the alignment of actual and preferred compensation methods, but not for rural ones. Both urban and rural midwives report similar preferences for employment status and work schedule policies. Furthermore, satisfaction with financial rewards is significantly associated with their intention to stay. Policymakers can positively influence midwives' intention to stay in the profession by facilitating alignment of their actual and preferred employment policies.

In patients undergoing surgery for early stage endometrial cancer, we sought to evaluate the effect of lymphadenectomy (LND), as well as surgical route, on the risk of postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE). The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results cancer registries (2000-2013) linked to Medicare claims follow up from 1999 to 2014 was accessed to identify those with stage I-II endometrioid endometrial cancer who underwent hysterectomy. Performance of LND, 90-day incidence of postoperative VTE, open vs minimally invasive surgery (MIS), demographics, comorbidities, grade, and stage were collected. A washout period of 12months with no prior VTE was required. t-test, Chi square test, univariate and multivariable Poisson regression with robust variance estimator were used. A total of 15,101 patients had hysterectomy for early stage endometrial cancer. LND was performed in 9004 (60%) patients. VTE was found in 486 patients. There were 346 VTEs (3.8%) in the LND group vs 140 (2.3%) in those without LND (RR=1.67, p<0.0001). Adjusting for age, stage, grade, comorbidities and surgical approach, LND remained a significant risk for VTE (RR=1.7, p<0.001). In those who underwent MIS, LND was associated with a two-fold increase in the risk of VTE (p=0.0008) (adjusted RR=1.99, p=0.0014) and had a statistically comparable rate of VTE when compared to the open surgical approach (p=0.054). LND is associated with an increased 90-day risk of postoperative VTE in patients undergoing surgery for early stage endometrial cancer. The need for extended postoperative VTE prophylaxis in patients undergoing LND via MIS needs further exploration.

To identify recurrence patterns and outcomes in women with advanced or recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). This is an IRB-approved single-institution cohort study of women who underwent CRS+HIPEC for advanced or recurrent EOC followed in a prospective registry from 1/12/2014-3/1/2020. Recurrence locations were defined as pelvic, upper abdominal (UA) and/or extra-peritoneal (EP). Univariate analysis assessed associations between recurrence location, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). In total, 92 women with EOC underwent interval (56.5%; n=52) or recurrent CRS+HIPEC (43.5%; n=40). For interval CRS+HIPEC, recurrence locations were pelvic in 50.0% (n=15), UA in 23.3% (n=7) and EP in 56.7% (n=17); 40.0% (n=12) were EP alone. Similarly, for recurrent CRS+HIPEC, recurrence locations were pelvic (22.5%, n=9), UA (5.0%, n=2) and EP (60.0%, n=24); 66.7% (n=20) were EP alone. For both interval aC. Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLN) helps define lymph node status, a major prognostic factor in vulvar cancer. The aim of the current systematic review was to assess the use of indocyanine green (
