I)            Συνδρομή στην ενημέρωση του κοινού

Στα πλαίσια της κοινωνικής μου προσφοράς έχω 21 δημοσιεύσεις άρθρων σε εφημερίδες και περιοδικά. Επίσης έχω κάνει 29 ομιλίες στο πλατύ κοινό, στις πλείστες σαν προσκεκλημένος ομιλητής από το Αντικαρκινικό Σύνδεσμο Κύπρου και στα πλάισια της ετήσιας τους υπερπροσπάθειας για την ενημέρωση του κοινού για τη πρόληψη και θεραπεία του καρκίνου. Άλλες 19 φορές προσκλήθηκα σε τηλεοπτικές συνεντεύξεις και προγράμματα καθώς και ραδιοφωνικές εκπομπές για την ενημέρωση του κοινού σε ιατρικά θέματα.

J)            Ανασκόπηση στις τρέχουσες επιστημονικές εργασίες και ερευνητικά προγράμματα

Συμμετοχή σε Διεθνή Ερευνητικά προγράμματα

1. Νεα Ταξινόμηση των Εκ γενετής Ανομαλιών της Μήτρας – Κλινική μελέτη και έρευνα για τις Εκ γενετής ανομαλίες  της μήτρας. Από κοινού προσπάθεια όμάδων εργασίας της ESHRE και ESGE. Συμμετέχουν οι GF Grimbizis, R Campo, S Gordts, S Brucker, M Gergolet, V Tanos, T-C Li, C De Angelis A Di Spezio Sardo. Ακολουθήσαμε τη DELPHI διαδικασία έτσι ώστε να εντοπίσουμε τα προβλήματα διάγνωσης και θεραπέιας σε αυτά τα περιστατικά. Η έρευνα άρχισε το 2012 και συνεχίζεται με πολλές και δίαφορες ακαδημαικές δραστηριότητες, αναφορές, παρουσιάσεις και επιστημονικά συγράμματα.

2. Οδηγίες της ESGE για το τεμαχισμό των ινομοιωμάτων κατά την λαπαροσκοπική επέμβαση: Επικεφαλείς της μελέτης αυτής: Hans Brolmann και Βασίλειος Τανος και έναρξη τον Απρίλιο του 2014. Η μελέτη αυτή τρέχει με τη συμμετοχή 25 Ευρωπαικών ιατρικών κέντρων Γυναικολογικής Λαπαροσκοπικής χειρουργικής. Ο στόχος της έρευνας αυτής είναι ο εντοπισμός της συχνότητας των κλινικών και τεχνικών επιπλοκών της διαδικασίας τεμαχισμού κατά την λαπαροσκοπική και υστεροσκοπική χειρουργική καθώς και η εξεύρεση ασφαλέστερων μεθόδων της τεχικής αυτής.

3. DIGESTT (Diploma in Imaging for Gynaecological Endoscopic Surgery Training and Testing) Το πρόγραμμα αυτό είναι μια κοινή προσπάθεια της EAGS και της ESGE για την εκπαιδευση των ενδοσκόπων χειρουργών στις απεικονιστικές μεθόδους. Επικεφαλείς και προτεργάτες είναι ο Prof Nazar Amso και ο Καθ. Βασίλειος Τάνος συνγράφον όπου δημιουργήσαμε το πρόγραμμα σπουδών για το πρόγραμμα DIGESTT (Δίπλωμα Απεικονιστικών στη Γυναικολογική Ενδοσκοπική Χειρουργική, Εξάσκηση και Εξέταση). Είναι το πρώτο στο είδος του και συμμετέχουν 30 συναδέλφοι από το τη διεθνή επιστημονική κοινότητα. Ηλεκτρονική μάθηση, προσομοίωση, μάθηση με κλινικά σενάρια, κλπ συμπεριλαμβάνονται στο πρόγραμμα του DIGESTT. Παράλληλα τα αποτέλεσματα των συμμετέχοντων στο πρόγραμμα θα αποτελέσουν υλικό για έρευνα του αντικειμένου.

4. Μελέτη μεταξύ των μελών της ESGE για τα σαρκώματα (Survey among ESGE members on Sarcomas): Επικεφαλείς και προτεργάτες της έρευνας αυτής είναι ο Καθ Βασίλειος Τάνος και ο Prof Hans Brolmann. Η έρευνα αποτελείται από 2 φάσεις. Ο στόχος της έρευνας αυτής, είναι η ανίχνευση αυστηρών επιτημονικών τεκμηρίων για την συχνότητα και τον επιπολασμό των σαρκωμάτων κατά τις επεμβάσεις των μυομεκτομών και υστερεκτομών. Επίσης η έκδοση κριτηρίων αναγνώρισης γυναικών υψηλού κινδύνου και βέλτιστου τρόπου αντιμετώπισης της νόσου. Η 1η φάση έχει ολοκληρωθεί και παρουσιάστηκε στο ESGE 23rd annual congress Square Brussels, 24-27 October 2014. Είναι επίσης έτοιμη για έκδοση στο επόμενο τεύχος του Journal Gyn Surgery. Η 2η φάση άρχισε τον Ιούνιο του 2015 και αναμένεται να ολοκληρωθεί το Δεκέμβριο του 2016.

5. Ερευνα ποιοτικού ελέγχου και επάρκειας των εκπαιδευτικών προγραμμάτων της Ακαδημίας (EAGS): Όλοι οι συμμετέχοντες στα εκπαιδευτικά εργαστήρια της Ακαδημίας το 2016 θα εξετάζονται για τη μαθησιακή τους ικανότητα πριν και μετά την εκπαίδευση τους. Κατά αυτό τον τρόπο θα ερευνήσουμε το μέγεθος και την επάρκεια του προγράμματος, μέσα σε 3 μέρες να εκπαιδεύση ένα χειρουργό γυναικολόγο έτσι ώστε να συμμετέχει ενεργά σε ένα πραγματικό περιστατικό. Εχω σχεδιάσει ειδικές ασκήσεις πρακτικής εξάσκησης έτσι ώστε η χειρουργική εμπειρία να ισορροπείται με τη μέτρηση της ικανότητας και της μάθησης. Παραμέτροι όπως είναι ο χρόνος, η ακρίβεια διαικπαιρέωσης και η επανάληψη μιας άσκησης απότελούν ένα μικρό μόνο μέρος της έρευνας αυτής.

6. Οδηγίες και Εισηγήσεις για τη Χειρουργική της Ενδομητρίωσης (Endometriosis Surgery Recommendation): Άρχισε τον Απρίλιο του 2015 με όμάδες εργασίας από την ESHRE και ESGE. Με συντονιστή το Prof RL De Wilde και ομάδα ειδικών επί του θέματος, ερευνώντας τη βιβλιογραφία και καταθέτοντας τις εμπειρίες μας, δημιουργούμε τους πυλώνες εργασίας και επέκτασης των δραστηριοτήτων μας. Η επιλεγμένη ομάδα αποτελείται από τους Vasilios Tano, Gerard Dunselman, Ertan Saridogan, Ulrich Uwe, G Keckstein and Grigoris Grimbizis.

7. Έρευνα της κυτταρικής δομής και λειτουργίας της ενδομήτριας συνδετικής ζώνης (Junctional zone (JZ) endometrium). Η συνδετική αυτή ζώνη που βρίσκεται μεταξύ του ενδομέτριου και του μυομήτριου φαίνεται μόνο στη μαγνητική τομογρφία και στο τρισδιάστατο υπερηχογράφημα. Προσπάθειες διάγνωσης της ζώνης αυτής με ιστοπαθολογικές μεθόδους απέτυχαν. Κατόπιν δικής μου εισήγησης και σχεδιασμού της έρευνας, βιοψίες ενδομητρίου και μυομητρίου με ειδικό εργαλείο (spirotome) θα επεξεργαστούν και εξετασθούν σε ηλεκτρονικό μικροσκόπιο από 4 διαφορετικά κέντρα. Η έρευνα άρχισε από τη 1η Ιανουαρίου 2017 όπου έγιναν και οι πρώτες λήψης βιοψιών. Η επιλεγμένη ομάδα αποτελείται από τους Καθ. Β Τάνο Αρεταίειο Νοσοκομείο, Δρ Κ Κυριάκου Ινστιτούτο Νευρολογίας και Γενετικής Κύπρου στο τμήμα ηλεκτρονικού μισκοσκοπίου, Prof Stephan Gordts Leuven, Belgium and Prof Hillary Critchley, Edinburgh Med School.

8. Έρευνα αναγνώρισης και ορισμού της ανατομίας της «Φυσιολογικής Σάλπιγγας» SUTUBA study (acronym for SUbtle TUbal Abnormalities) Εξετάζουμε τη μορφολογία και τα ανατομικά χαρακτηριστικά των σαλπιγγών της μήτρας. Ανατομικές διαφορές που θεωρούνταν μέχρι σήμερα φυσιολογικές αποκλίσεις μιάς κανονικής σάλπιγγας, πιθανόν να έχουν υποκλινική και ιδιαίτερη σημασία σε περιστατικά με ανεξήγητη υπογονιμότητα. Η μελέτη αυτή άρχισε το Ιανουάριο του 2017 και θα ολοκληρωθεί το Δεκέμβριο του 2018. Η πιλοτική φάση περιλαμβάνει 5 ιατρικά κέντρα και συντονιστής είναι ο Pr Antoine Watrelot Lyon (France), Pr Fernandez, Paris (France), Pr Vasilios Tanos, Nicosia (Cyprus), Pr Michelle Nisolle, Liège (Belgium) και ο Pr TC Li, Hong Kong.

Συμμετοχή σε ερευνητικά προγράμματα στο Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρο

1. Σε συνεργασία με το Καθ Κ Παττίχη στο εργαστήριο ηλεκτρονικής υγείας του τμήματος της Πληροφορικής, στο Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρου, συνεχίζουμε το πρόγραμμα CATIA (Computer Assisted Tissue Image Analysis) που τρέχει από το 2003. Βασική και κλινική έρευνα που εχει στόχο να αυξήσει την διαγνωστική ακρίβεια του γυναικολόγου για έγκαιρη διάγνωση του καρκίνου του ενδομητρίου κατά την διάρκεια της υστεροσκόπισης καθώς και την αξιολόγηση του ενδομητρίου, για την καταλληλότερη μέρα του κύκλου για εμβρυομεταφορα στις περιπτώσεις θεραπειών υπογονιμότητας.
