This study assessed the awareness and attitudes of adolescents in Jordan concerning the ethics of using their social media data for scientific studies. Using an online survey, 393 adolescents were recruited (mean age: 17.2 years ± 1.8). The results showed that 88% of participants were using their real personal information on social media sites, with males more likely to provide their information than females. More than two thirds of participants (72.5%) were aware that researchers may use their data for research purposes, with the majority believing that informed consent must be obtained from both the adolescents and their parents. However, more than three quarters of those surveyed (76%) did not trust the results of research that depended on collecting data from social media. These findings suggest that adolescents in Jordan understood most of the ethical aspects related to the utilization of their data from social media websites for research studies.
Introduction: Extragenital tumors uncommonly affect the female genital tract and usually involve the ovaries (75-80%), while the uterus can harbor metastases in the context of a widely disseminated disease. The primary tumors are most often located in the breast (35%) or gastrointestinal tract (38%). Metastases to the uterine body usually involve the myometrium whereas those exclusively involving the endometrium are rare. Case presentation: We report the case of a 50-year-old woman with endometrial metastasis from a colonic adenocarcinoma 6 years after the initial presentation. Conclusion: Metastatic colon tumors can histologically present as a primary disease in the endometrium if the pathologist has little awareness to consider metastasis. The clinical history of disseminated metastases, the lack of CK7 expression at immunohistochemistry, and positive results for CK20 and nuclear CDX2 are helpful clues to support the diagnosis of metastatic carcinoma of colorectal origin.
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.
