warfarin and Uterine-Cervical-Neoplasms

Trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis is associated with more pain and restrictions than other hand osteoarthritis due to the functional importance of the thumb. While the effectiveness of surgical and pharmacological interventions has been widely examined, there is a lack of specific evidence about conservative non-pharmacological trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis therapies. The objective of this systematic review was to provide evidence-based knowledge on the effectiveness of physiotherapy and occupational therapy on pain, function and quality of life.. A literature search of Medline, CINAHL, PEDro, OTseeker, EMB Dare Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews and Cochrane CENTRAL was performed. Randomized and quasi-randomized controlled trials and corresponding systematic reviews, observational studies, pragmatic studies and case-control studies were included. The risk of bias was assessed.. Physical and occupational therapy-related interventions, especially multimodal interventions, seem to be effective to treat pain in patients with trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis. Pre-fabricated neoprene splints and custom-made thermoplastic splints may reduce pain equally. Single interventions seem not to be effective. Significant evidence for effectiveness on function and quality of life could not be found.. The sole Na. The SUV. Genetic variants of

We had previously reported an association between the use of recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) and thrombosis in patients with cervix and vulvo-vaginal cancer treated with chemotherapy and radiation. We hypothesized that low-dose warfarin would be effective prevention for thromboembolic events in this setting.. A retrospective analysis of patients with cervical or vulvo-vaginal carcinoma receiving chemoradiation and rHuEpo was performed. Thirty-two patients received rHuEpo alone, and 24 received warfarin (1-2 mg) and rHuEpo. The primary endpoint was objectively proven symptomatic venous thrombosis.. There was no difference in the baseline characteristics (e.g. age, stage, body mass index, mean and peak hemoglobin, WBC and platelet counts, and number of transfusions) between these two groups. The rate of thrombosis also was not statistically different (P = 0.62). Nine of 24 patients had a symptomatic deep vein thrombosis (DVT) while receiving warfarin compared to 10 of 32 patients not on warfarin. There was no difference between the two groups in the percentage of patients with upper extremity DVT (P = 0.83) or lower extremity DVT (P = 0.64).. Daily low-dose warfarin did not alter the incidence of symptomatic DVT in patients with cervical or vulvo-vaginal cancer who received rHuEpo in conjunction with chemoradiation.

Unusual complications of warfarin therapy include cutaneous necrosis and the "purple toe syndrome." The latter is more common in men and is not associated with vascular compromise; it usually occurs 3 to 8 weeks after warfarin therapy is begun and may persist for many months after the medication is discontinued. The following is a case of a 63-year-old woman who received warfarin therapy in conjunction with heparin for treatment of a left leg deep vein thrombosis. Approximately 8 hours after receiving her first dose of warfarin (15 mg), she developed acute pain, edema, and discoloration of the entire left leg to the mid-thigh, most prominent in the left great toe. After discontinuation of warfarin therapy, her symptoms completely resolved within 48 hours. This may be a report of a new cutaneous lesion associated with anticoagulant therapy.
