Laparoscopy in Abdominal Emergencies. Romanian Association for Endoscopic Surgery Consensus. Part I (Trauma).

laparoscopy has emerged as a pivotal tool for the management of acute abdominal pathologies. It provides diagnostic and therapeutic advantages, enabling surgeons to evaluate and address diverse acute abdominal conditions using minimally invasive techniques. The aim of this consensus was to obtain evidence-based guidance for surgeons regarding the utilization of laparoscopy in emergency medical settings, and has been divided into trauma and non-trauma emergencies.

Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Breast Cancer Using Different Types of Tracers According to Molecular Subtypes and Breast Density-A Randomized Clinical Study.

Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has become a method more and more frequently used in loco-regional breast cancer in the initial stages. Starting from the first report on the technical feasibility of the sentinel node method in breast cancer, published by Krag (1993) and Giuliano (1994), the method underwent numerous improvements and was also largely used worldwide. This article is a prospective study that took place at the "SJUPBT Surgery Clinic Timisoara" over a period of 1 year between July 2023 and July 2024, during which 137 underwent sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) based on the current guidelines.

Personalized and predictive strategies for diabetic foot ulcer prevention and therapeutic management: potential improvements through introducing Artificial Intelligence and wearable technology.

Diabetic foot ulcers represent a serious and costly complication of diabetes, with significant morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study was to explore advancements in Artificial Intelligence, and wearable technologies for the prevention and management of diabetic foot ulcers. Key findings indicate that Artificial Intelligence-driven predictive analytics can identify early signs of diabetic foot ulcers, enabling timely interventions.

A Comprehensive View on the Impact of Chlorogenic Acids on Colorectal Cancer.

Chlorogenic acids are plant secondary metabolites, chemically-polyphenols with similar biological activity, formed through the esterification of quinic acid and hydrocinnamic acid moieties. They are best known for their high concentration in coffee and other dietary sources and the antioxidant properties that they exhibit. Both chlorogenic acids and plant extracts containing significant amounts of the compounds show promising in vitro activity against colorectal cancer.

Surgical Treatment of Lithiasis of the Main Pancreatic Duct: A Challenging Case and a Literature Review.

Pancreaticolithiasis represents a rare phenomenon, being superimposed most of the time on a form of chronic pancreatitis of multifactorial etiology. Pancreaticolithiasis is a late complication of the phenomenon of chronic pancreatitis. The reverberant inflammatory process, followed by the fibrotic degeneration of the pancreatic parenchyma, and pancreatic fluid stasis at the ductal level are factors that contribute to the phenomenon of calcium precipitation.
