BACKGROUND: The study aimed to validate the previously identified capacity of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to detect clinically relevant differences in tissue perfusion intraoperatively. METHODS: Consecutive patients undergoing oncologic resection requiring flap reconstruction were analyzed. Clinicians were blinded to tissue oxygen saturation (StO2 ) measurements taken intraoperatively. Measurements were taken at (1) control areas not affected by the procedure, (2) areas at risk of necrosis based on distal location, and (3) areas of skin flap necrosis (SFN) identified during the follow-up period...

PURPOSE: Cervical cancer disproportionately impacts women in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The World Health Organization's (WHO) 90/70/90 strategy aims to eliminate cervical cancer by 2030 by increasing HPV vaccination coverage to 90%, screening 70% of eligible women, and effectively treating 90% of those with abnormal results by 2030, potentially preventing 62 million deaths in LMICs. LMICs, however, struggle with limited access to cervical precancer treatment, in part due to a lack of trained professionals and weak health systems...

OBJECTIVES: Not all patients with stage III and IV osteosarcoma who undergo surgery to remove the primary tumor will benefit from surgery; therefore, we developed a nomogram model to test the hypothesis that only a subset of patients will benefit from surgery. METHODS: 412 patients were screened from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database. Subsequently, 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) was used to screen and balance confounders. We first made the hypothesis that patients who underwent the procedure would benefit more...

Apart from individual genetic background, unhealthy lifestyle and diet, etc., nutrition also plays an important role in the occurrence and progression of gastrointestinal tumors. Although some patients with gastrointestinal tumors can be satisfied with the traditional nutritional support, it is apparently inadequate for the systemic management of all patients. Precision nutrition support, also known as personalized nutrition support, refers to safe and efficient individualized nutrition intervention based on the investigation of individual genetic background, life characteristics, metabolic indicators, intestinal microbial characteristics, and physiological status factors through big data analysis for the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases...

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and ampullary carcinoma (AAC) are lethal malignancies with modest benefits from surgery. SOX2 and STIM1 have been linked to anticancer activity in several human malignancies. This study included 94 tumor cases: 48 primary PDAC, 25 metastatic PDAC, and 21 primary AAC with corresponding non-tumor tissue. All cases were immunohistochemically stained for STIM1 and SOX2 and results were correlated with clinicopathologic data, patient survival, and BCL2 immunostaining results...

Ewing sarcoma (ES) represents the second most common primary osseous malignancy in children and young adults, most often occurring in the diaphysis of the long bones. While rare, ES can present as an osseous tumor of the ribs and/or chest wall. These tumors are known as Askin's tumors and most commonly present with symptoms resembling pneumonia. We report the case of a 26-year-old man who was found to have a right lung mass extending into his anterolateral chest wall after presenting to the hospital for evaluation of unremitting chest pain...

PURPOSE/AIM: Perianal wound healing and/or complications are common following abdominoperineal resection (APR). Although primary closure is commonly undertaken, myocutaneous flap closure such as vertical rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap (VRAM) is thought to improve wound healing process and outcome. A comprehensive meta-analysis was performed to compare outcomes of primary closure versus VRAM flap closure of perineal wound following APR. METHODS: PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials were comprehensively searched until the 8th of August 2023...

BACKGROUND: The study explores the role of liver debulking surgery in cases of unresectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM), challenging the traditional notion that surgery is not a valid option in such scenarios. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with advanced but resectable disease who underwent surgery with a curative intent (Group I) and those with advanced incompletely resectable disease who underwent a "debulking" hepatectomy (Group II) were compared. RESULTS: There was no difference in the intra-operative and post-operative results between the two groups...
