Abdominal wound dehiscence and incisional hernia prevention in midline laparotomy: a systematic review and network meta-analysis.
Langenbecks Arch Surg
July 2023
Background: Incisional hernia (IH) is the main complication after laparotomy. In an attempt to reduce this complication, mesh techniques and studies in which the closure technique is modified have been proposed. Both types are characterized by comparison with the closure described as standard or conventional: 1 × 1, mass, and continuous closure.

Gastroenterol Hepatol
May 2023
Article Synopsis
- - This study examined gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms in hospitalized COVID-19 patients across multiple countries to understand how frequently these symptoms occur and their relationship to the severity of the disease.
- - Among 829 patients, common GI symptoms included anorexia, diarrhea, nausea/vomiting, and abdominal pain, but these were generally mild, resolved quickly, and not linked to worse COVID-19 outcomes.
- - The research also found that a significant number of patients experienced liver injury, but similar to the GI symptoms, it did not correlate with the severity of COVID-19 illness.
Association Between the Placement of a Double-J Catheter and the Risk of Urinary Tract Infection in Renal Transplantation Recipients: A Retrospective Cohort Study of 1038 Patients.
Transplant Proc
October 2021
Background: The incidence of urinary complications in transplantation is 2% to 20%, which can be decreased with the use of a double-J catheter. The objective of this study was to determine the association between the use of the catheter and the probability of urinary tract infection (UTI).
Methods: We studied a retrospective cohort of 1038 patients divided into 2 groups: those treated with vs without a double-J catheter.
Chloromas are an atypical cellular infiltrate of immature granulocytic cells that can occur specially in patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), but can be present in nonleukemic patients. Its clinical course will be dependent on its size and location, from asymptomatic to simulating a malignant gastrointestinal neoplasia. Definitive diagnosis is made upon an immunoprofile that is similar to that present in the blasts and precursor cells of acute myeloid leukemia.
