A single center retrospective study of vNOTES hysterectomy, laparoscopic hysterectomy and vaginal hysterectomy operations.

In our study, we aimed to retrospectively compare vNOTES hysterectomy, a new method, with a vaginal hysterectomy (VH) and total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH). Our study included 186 hysterectomy cases (62 vNOTES hysterectomy, 62 VH, and 62 TLH) with benign indications diagnosed between 2021 and 2022. Our study is a retrospective and single-center study.

Evaluation of Triglyceride Glucose Index in Patients with Patent Foramen Ovale Who Experienced Cryptogenic Stroke.

: The prevalence of patent foramen ovale (PFO) has been found to be increased in patients with cryptogenic stroke, suggesting an association between these two clinical settings. Insulin resistance is a risk factor for the occurrence of stroke. The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is a biomarker that reflects the IR status of the body.

Value of ACEF-II Score in Predicting Major Adverse Cardiac Events in Patients With Non-ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction and Unstable Angina.

Background: A score based on age, creatinine level, and ejection fraction as well as hematocrit value and the presence of emergency surgery (ACEF-II) has been proposed to have predictive value for risk stratification in cardiac surgery. This study aimed to evaluate its utility in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and unstable angina (NSTEMI-ACS) to predict 1-year major adverse cardiac events (MACE).

Methods: In all, 768 patients with NSTEMI-ACS were enrolled in the study.

Reactivity Study of the Bis(phosphine)-Stabilized Antimony(I) Cation.

The 5,6-Bis(diisopropylphosphino)acenaphthene -stabilized Sb(I) cationic compound [LSb][OTf] (OTf = CFSO) possessing two lone pairs of electrons on the Sb(I) center showed nucleophilic behavior toward methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate forming the oxidized product [LSbMe][OTf] (OTf = CFSO). Reaction of compound with Lewis acids such as GaCl and AlBr led to changes in the counteranions only giving products [LSb][GaCl] and [LSb][SbBr] , respectively. A metathesis reaction was observed when compound was reacted with PI.
