Global perspectives in acute and emergency general surgery in low and middle-income countries: a WSES project protocol for scoping review on global surgery.

Background: Around five billion people globally lack access to safe, timely, and affordable surgical facilities and care in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). Global initiatives have been launched, including efforts led by organizations. Also, regional efforts have shed light on the unique challenges faced by different areas within LMICs.

Comparison of surgical treatment and systemic chemotherapy in patients with non-epithelioid malignant pleural mesothelioma.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the most appropriate treatment options for patients with non-epithelioid malignant pleural mesothelioma.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients with non-epithelioid malignant pleural mesothelioma who received treatment at our center.

Results: Forty-two patients were included in this study.

Novel Hydrazide-Hydrazones Bearing a Benzimidazole Ring: Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of Inhibitor Properties Against CA I and CA II Isozymes.

In this study, we propose identifying potential novel compounds targeting carbonic anhydrase I and II. Herein, we have designed and synthesized new benzimidazole-hydrazide-hydrazones derivatives (4a-4r) to investigate the effects of these synthesized compounds on CA isoenzymes. The compounds' H NMR, C NMR, and HRMS spectra were used to confirm their chemical structures.

Long-term outcomes of surgical management in post-intubation tracheal stenosis: a retrospective analysis of tracheal resection and reconstruction.

Post-intubation tracheal stenosis (PITS) is a serious complication of prolonged intubation, often requiring surgical intervention. This study aims to present the long-term outcomes of patients with PITS who underwent tracheal resection and reconstruction, as well as to discuss the efficacy of these surgical methods in comparison to stenting. This retrospective study included patients treated for PITS at our center between October 2005 and October 2022.
