Early postoperative feeding after major abdominal gynaecologic surgery for either benign or malignant conditions appeared to be safe without increased gastrointestinal morbidities or other postoperative complications. The benefits of this approach include faster recovery of bowel function, lower rates of infectious complications, shorter hospital stay, and higher satisfaction.
Ovarian cancer is the major cause of death out of all the gynecologic cancers. The prognosis of this cancer is quite poor since patients only seek treatment when it is at an advanced stage. Any early biomarkers for this cancer are still unknown. Dysregulation of mitochondrial dynamics with associated resistance to apoptosis plays a crucial role in several types of human carcinogenesis, including ovarian cancers. Previous studies showed that increased mitochondrial fission occurred in ovarian cancer cells. However, several pharmacological interventions and therapeutic strategies, which modify the mitochondrial dynamics through the promotion of mitochondrial fission and apoptosis of cancer cells, have been shown to potentially provide beneficial effects in ovarian cancer treatment. Therefore the aim of the present review is to summarize and discuss the current findings from in vitro, in vivo and clinical studies associated with the alteration of mitochondrial dynamics and ovarian cancers with and without interventions.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
