This is a retrospective cohort study of all consecutive patients who underwent colon or rectal resection, between the years 2012-2017 at Rabin Medical Center, a tertiary referral center in Israel. Data were obtained from patients' electronic medical files. The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of Rabin Medical Center (RMC). The study met the guidelines outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki. Due to the minimal risk nature of this study, the need for informed consent was waived by the IRB. Patient population: All patients aged 70 years and above who underwent large bowel resection were included in the analysis. Inclusion criteria were: age ≥70; all patients undergoing any colonic or rectal resection for benign or malignant etiologies in an open or minimally-invasive approach Exclusion criteria were: age<70; colon resection without anastomoses; re-operations during the same admission . Data retrieved included demographic data (age, gender, Charlson comorbidity score, place of residency, functional capacity, BMI), surgical data (indication for surgery, elective vs urgent surgery, surgical approach, length of surgery, peri-operative morbidity and mortality.All surgeries were performed by at least one senior surgeon. The surgical approach (laparoscopic or laparotomy) was at the senior surgeon's discretion and deemed most appropriate for the patient's problem, physiological status and underlying illnesses. The extent of the resection was according to oncological guidelines when relevant Endpoints: Primary endpoint was the occurrence of postoperative anastomotic leak. Secondary end-point was postoperative mortality Statistical Analysis The statistical analysis for this paper was generated using SAS Software. Continuous variables were presented by Mean±Std, Categorical variables were presented by (N, %). T-Test was used to compare the value of continuous variables between study groups and Fisher's exact test (for two groups) or Chi-square (for more than two groups) were used to compare the value of categorical variables between study groups. Two-sided p values less than .05 were considered statistically significant

Vaginal Microbiome Transplantation (VMT) may be beneficial in treating the most severe cases of recurrent and antibiotics-nonresponsive cases of BV. Recently, we completed a preliminary study in which we treated patients with recurrent and antibiotics-non-responsive, intractable BV, with VMT from healthy donors [Lev-Sagie, Nature Medicine 2019]. Four VMT recipients in this preliminary study featured a significant improvement of both clinical symptoms and dysbiotic vaginal microbiome composition and function, which persisted over a long follow-up period, while one recipient featured a partial remission. The proposed study is designed as a placebo, randomized controlled trial, and is aimed to further assess whether VMT may serve as a viable option in symptomatic, intractable BV. In the suggested study, we plan to compare transplantation of: 1) vaginal fluid from healthy donors, and 2) autologous transplantation, of the patient's own vaginal fluid.
Given the need for an effective, non-hormonal treatment for Genitourinary syndrome of menopause GSM) symptoms in breast cancer survivors, the reported efficacy of fractional CO2 laser as such a treatment in retrospective studies, the study aims to evaluate the efficacy of CO2 laser for the treatment of GSM in breast cancer patients, in a prospective, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled trial.
The aim of the study is to examine the relationship between "flat" sugar curve on OGTT-glucose tolerance test during pregnancy, neonatal birthweight and other perinatal outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab in combination with tiragolumab compared with durvalumab in participants with locally advanced, unresectable Stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have received at least two cycles of concurrent platinum-based chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and have not had radiographic disease progression.
This is a multi-center, open-label study evaluating the safety of Allocetra-OTS, in 5 subjects with severe COVID-19 and respiratory dysfunction. Subjects, who will be identified as suffering from COVID-19, will be recruited. After signing an informed consent by the patient and, within 24+6 hours following the time of eligibility (time 0), on Day 1, eligible recipient subjects will receive single intravenous (IV) administration of investigational product as described below. Subjects will be hospitalized for COVID-19, and later as medically indicated. Following investigational product (IP) administration (Day 1), subjects will be followed for efficacy and safety assessments through 28 days.
