Methods: Thirty-four subjects with gynecological cancer and 16 healthy women completed a Korean version of pelvic floor questionnaire and Korean version of the EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-CX24. Gynecological cancer survivors were randomly allocated to exercise group performing Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation Program (PFRP) or control group. All gynecological cancer survivors completed a Korean version of pelvic floor questionnaire and Korean version of the EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-CX 24 and MEP by sacral and transcranial magnetic stimulation and pelvic floor strength were examined at the baseline and post-intervention at 1 month.
Results: Gynecological cancer survivors have more pelvic floor dysfunction that have a relevant impact on HRQOL especially physical functioning compared to the healthy women. The exercise group had a significant improvement in pelvic floor dysfunction with comparison to the control group (p < 0.001). A significant short-term training effect was observed in exercise group in terms of more increase in pelvic muscle strength and higher rise in amplitude of motor evoked potential at sacral stimulation than in the control group.
Conclusions: Gynecological cancer and treatment procedures cause important problems that have a negative effect on quality of life. Pelvic floor dysfunction improved after PFRP in gynecological cancer survivors. These preliminary results support the feasibility of a substantive trial of PFMT for pelvic floor dysfunction in gynecological cancer survivors

Leaders of the field: What does the future hold for single molecule technology?
No full textIn recent years, single molecule technology has experienced a rapid growth, with exciting developments in fundamental research and real-world applications. Detecting and studying biological phenomena on thesingle molecule level requires a unique synergy between researchers working on instrumentation, physics, and the life sciences. In the iScience special issue ‘‘Single Molecule Technology – From Biotechnology toBiomedical Applications’’, guest edited by Amit Meller and Chirlmin Joo (Figure 1), we are highlighting a variety of research on nanopore technology, single molecule fluorescence, and a selection of other ultra-sensitive detection methods. More content in the special issue can be found here: https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/iscience/special-issue/10PGSBV55N0. The guest editors in this backstory share their thoughts on what is currently exciting in the field, and the advances they think will make an impact in the near future.BN/Chirlmin Joo La
Unraveling proteins at the single molecule level using nanopores
No full textThe function and phenotype of a cell is determined by a complex network of interactions between DNA, RNA, proteins and metabolites. Therefore, a comprehensive approach that integrates genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics is necessary to achieve full understanding of biological processes and disease. Recent technological developments have mostly focused on the study of genomes. DNA sequencing has become fast, cheap, and ubiquitous. The study of other -omes, especially the proteome, remains expensive and time-consuming...BN/Chirlmin Joo La
Paving the way to single-molecule protein sequencing
No full textProteins are major building blocks of life. The protein content of a cell and an organism provides key information for the understanding of biological processes and disease. Despite the importance of protein analysis, only a handful of techniques are available to determine protein sequences, and these methods face limitations, for example, requiring a sizable amount of sample. Single-molecule techniques would revolutionize proteomics research, providing ultimate sensitivity for the detection of low-abundance proteins and the realization of single-cell proteomics. In recent years, novel single-molecule protein sequencing schemes that use fluorescence, tunnelling currents and nanopores have been proposed. Here, we present a review of these approaches, together with the first experimental efforts towards their realization. We discuss their advantages and drawbacks, and present our perspective on the development of single-molecule protein sequencing techniques.Accepted Author ManuscriptBN/Chirlmin Joo LabBN/Cees Dekker La
