Objective: To evaluate prognostic factors, outcomes, and management patterns of patients treated for squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva. Methods: One hundred sixty-four women were retrospectively identified with primary squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva treated at our institution between 1/1996–12/2018. Descriptive statistics were performed on patient, tumor, and treatment characteristics. The χ2 tests and t-tests were used to compare categorical variables and continuous variables, respectively. Recurrence free survival (RFS), overall survival (OS), and disease-specific survival (DSS) were analyzed with Kaplan-Meier estimates, the log-rank test, and Cox proportional hazards. Results: Median follow-up was 52.5 months. Five-year RFS was 67.9%, 60.0%, 42.1%, and 20.0% for stage I–IV, respectively. Five-year DSS was 86.2%, 81.6%, 65.0%, and 42.9% for stage I–IV, respectively. On multivariate analysis, positive margins predicted overall RFS (hazard ratio [HR]=3.55; 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.18–10.73; p=0.025), while presence of lichen sclerosus on pathology (HR=2.78; 95% CI=1.30–5.91; p=0.008) predicted local RFS. OS was predicted by nodal involvement (HR=2.51; 95% CI=1.02–6.13; p=0.043) and positive margins (HR=5.19; 95% CI=2.03–13.26; p=0.001). Adjuvant radiotherapy significantly improved RFS (p=0.016) and DSS (p=0.012) in node-positive patients. Median survival after treatment of local, groin, and pelvic/distant recurrence was 52, 8, and 5 months, respectively. Conclusion: For primary treatment, more conservative surgical approaches can be considered with escalation of treatment in patients with concurrent precursor lesions, positive margins, and/or nodal involvement. Further studies are warranted to improve risk stratification in order to optimize treatment paradigms for vulvar cancer patients.

The deep‐rooted cultures of the East and West are compared and discussed to highlight how they may influence thinking, and behavior. As Singapore attempts to shape educational policies and initiatives to keep abreast with current educational provisions, some of the tensions accounted for reflect the deep‐rooted cultures of the East. The outcome provokes a re‐thinking about cultural‐related issues of educational values and strategies for educational reform in Asian societies in this globalized age.

With continuous growth in online apparel shopping, many consumers have experience not only in purchasing brand products online, but also in making repeat purchases. Although repeat purchases are critical to the success of branded companies, especially in online apparel shopping, limited academic research is found examining factors that infl uence online shoppers’ intent to repurchase apparel of a particular brand. This research investigated the effects of four types of brand perception (i.e. brand experience, brand imagecongruence, brand affect, brand trust) on brand repurchase intent in online apparel shopping. An online survey was conducted with a U S national sample of 217 online apparel shoppers who had purchased and worn product s from a particular apparel brand. Bootstrapping Structural Equation Modeling was used to test the proposed model and research hypotheses. The findings showed that brand experience and brand image-congruence were antecedents of brand affect. Brand image-congruence and brand affect significantly influenced brand trust. Brand image-congruence and brand trust also had direct effects on brand repurchase intent in online apparel shopping.

The purposes of the study were to identify consumers’ characteristics as predictors of purchase intentions (PI) of men’s masscustomized (M-C) apparel and to examine whether the predictors of PI were also predictors of willingness to pay (WTP) a premium for M-C apparel. Nine consumer characteristics were proposed as potential predictors: fashion innovativeness, three types of perceived behavioral control (self-efficacy, time availability, and money availability), two types of experience (experience in apparel mass customization (MC) and experience in a product category), and three demographic variables (age, education, and household income). Seven hypotheses were developed based on theories and relevant research. An online survey was used for the data collection, and 474 male consumers in the United States were recruited for the study. The results, obtained by bootstrapping Structural Equation Modeling, indicated that fashion innovativeness, self-efficacy, time availability, experience in apparel MC, and age were predictors of PI. Time availability and age were predictors of WTP a premium. Young male consumers were more likely to purchase M-C dress shirts and more willing to pay a premium. The applications of the findings were discussed.
Comparisons of fabric care performances between conventional and high‑efficiency washers and dryers
Jessie H. Chen‑Yu,JoAnn Emmel 한국의류학회 2018 Fashion and Textiles Vol.5 No.1
High-efficiency (HE) washers use 35–50% less water and about 50% less energy per load than conventional washers. However, there has been a consistent debate as to whether HE washers perform better or worse in garment care than conventional washers. Consumers need research-based information that would help them make informed decisions concerning the purchase of a clothes washer. The purpose of this study was to compare fabric hand, appearance retention (strain removal, color change, and fabric smoothness), and dimension stability (dimensional change and skewness change) after the specimens were repeatedly washed and dried for up to 20 cycles in three combinations of washer and dryer used: (a) conventional washer and dryer, (b) HE washer and conventional dryer, and (c) HE washer and dryer. The results showed that the specimens washed in the HE washer had better fabric hand and were smoother (fewer wrinkles) than those washed in the conventional washer. Conventional and HE washers performed similarly in color change, dimensional change, and skewness change. In regard to dryer, all results except those for stain removal showed no significant differences between the specimens dried in the conventional dryer and those dried in the HE dryer. In stain removal, when a softener was not used, the conventional dryer removed more stains from the specimens than the HE dryer. However, when a softener was used, the stains on the specimens dried in the conventional dryer were more difficult to remove than those on the specimens dried in the HE dryer.

This study investigates the antecedents of satisfaction with the product and satisfaction with the brand of consumers when they have received the garment ordered online and tried it on for the first time. We propose four antecedents of product satisfaction and brand satisfaction: (a) brand-based product expectation at purchase, (b) perceived product performance at product receipt,(c) website-visible-attribute expectancy disconfirmation (discrepancy between product expectation and perceived performance of the product attributes that are visible on the website, such as style and color), and (d) website-invisible-attribute expectancy disconfirmation (discrepancy between product expectation and perceived performance of the product attributes that may not be distinguishable on the website, such as fabric, fit, and workmanship). The research design was a 2 (levels of brand-based product expectation) x 2 (levels of perceived product performance) factorial experimental design. We developed two mock-up apparel retailer web pages for the data collection, and 120 participants provided usable responses. The findings revealed that brand-based product expectation and product performance did not influence product or brand satisfaction. Both types of expectancy disconfirmation were determinants of product satisfaction; however, only website-visible-attribute expectancy disconfirmation was the antecedent of brand satisfaction. Based on the findings, theoretical and pragmatic implications are presented.
