Robotic natural orifice specimen extraction surgery I-type F method conventional robotic resection for lower rectal cancer.

Background: Robotic resection using the natural orifice specimen extraction surgery I-type F method (R-NOSES I-F) is a novel minimally invasive surgical strategy for the treatment of lower rectal cancer. However, the current literature on this method is limited to case reports, and further investigation into its safety and feasibility is warranted.

Aim: To evaluate the safety and feasibility of R-NOSES I-F for the treatment of low rectal cancer.

Enhanced glucose homeostasis -mediated glucagon-like peptide 1 inhibition of hepatic gluconeogenesis in mid-intestinal bypass surgery.

Background: The small intestine is known to play a crucial role in the development and remission of diabetes mellitus (DM). However, the exact mechanism by which mid-small intestinal bypass improves glucose metabolism in diabetic rats is not fully understood.

Aim: To elucidate the mechanisms by which mid-small intestinal bypass improves glucose metabolism.

Differences in metabolic improvement after metabolic surgery are linked to the gut microbiota in non-obese diabetic rats.

Background: Different metabolic/bariatric surgery approaches vary in their effect on weight loss and glucose levels, although the underlying mechanism is unclear. Studies have demonstrated that the gut microbiota might be an important mechanism of improved metabolism after metabolic/bariatric surgery.

Aim: To investigate the relationship between the improvement in metabolic disturbances and the changes in gut microbiota after gastric or intestinal bypass.
