Comprehensive profiling and risk assessment of antibiotic resistomes in surface water and plastisphere by integrated shotgun metagenomics.

The ever-increasing microplastics (MPs) and antibiotic-resistance genes (ARGs) in aquatic ecosystems has become a serious global challenging issue. However, the impact of different pollution sources on microbiome and antibiotic resistome in surface water (SW) and plastisphere (PS) remains largely elusive. Here, shotgun metagenomics was used to analyze microbiome structure and antibiotic resistome in SW and PS under the influence of different pollution sources.

Ejaculation-Preserving Transurethral Resection of the Prostate: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

To evaluate the efficacy of preserving urethral mucosa around verumontanum in all directions and at the prostatic apex on antegrade ejaculation preservation and early postoperative continence in patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). A randomized controlled trial was conducted in our tertiary center on patients scheduled for TURP. Patients were randomly allocated into two equal groups.

Nanopore-based random genomic sampling for intraoperative molecular diagnosis.

Background: Central nervous system tumors are among the most lethal types of cancer. A critical factor for tailored neurosurgical resection strategies depends on specific tumor types. However, it is uncommon to have a preoperative tumor diagnosis, and intraoperative morphology-based diagnosis remains challenging.

Ischaemic Meckel's Diverticulum, Mesodiverticular Band, and Small Bowel Volvulus With Closed Loop Obstruction: A Laparoscopic Approach and Literature Review.

Meckel's diverticulum (MD) is the most common congenital abnormality of the gastrointestinal tract. It usually lies on the antimesenteric side of the ileum, about 60 cm from the ileocecal valve. Histologically, it is a true diverticulum comprising all four layers of the intestinal tract.
