Is single anastomosis duodenoileal bypass (SADI) an effective option for conversional surgery following sleeve gastrectomy? A comprehensive review and revised scope of current literature.

Background: Conversional surgery following sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is required in about 20 % of patients due to suboptimal outcomes. Single anastomosis duodenoileal bypass (SADI) has emerged as an option for such cases, though long-term outcomes remain unclear. This review analyzed available data on SADI as a conversional or second-stage procedure after SG.

Additive-free 3D-printed nanostructured carboxymethyl cellulose aerogels.

3D printing of polysaccharide solutions is widely recognized as a highly promising method in the biomedical field for achieving complex customized shapes. One of the main challenges is in selecting conditions, in particular, the rheological properties of the system, to retain the printed shape. For the first time, the direct ink writing (DIW) is successfully applied to neat carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) solutions without any additives or crosslinking, only by adjusting solutions' rheological properties.

Antimicrobial susceptibility of gram-negative bacteria: analysis from patients in a laboratory network in Brazil.

Objectives: This study aimed to describe the epidemiology and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of gram-negative pathogens in Brazil from 2018 to 2020, addressing the gap in national data on healthcare-associated infections, using information from a private laboratory network.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a database from Fleury hospital network, a private laboratory in Brazil. The analysis included blood, urine, and lower respiratory tract samples collected from January 2018 to June 2020.

Vascular endothelial growth factor immunoexpression in oral paracoccidioidomycosis.

Background: Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic mycosis endemic and limited to Latin America. Brazil is responsible for more than 80% of diagnosed cases in the world. Since PCM is not a notifiable disease, there are still no accurate data on its incidence in Brazil.

Bacillus subtilis inoculated in organic compost could improve the root architecture and physiology of soybean under water deficit.

Bacillus subtilis is known to promote root growth and improve plant physiology, while organic compost enhances soil water retention. This study explored the combined effect of inoculating B. subtilis in organic compost on soybean growth under water deficit.
