Importance: There is sparse literature on whether routine cholangiography (RC) vs selective cholangiography (SC) during cholecystectomy is associated with improved perioperative outcomes, regardless of whether an intraoperative cholangiogram (IOC) is performed.
Objective: To compare perioperative outcomes of cholecystectomy between surgeons who routinely vs selectively perform IOC.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This retrospective cohort study was conducted from January 2015 through June 2023 and took place within the Cleveland Clinic Enterprise, which includes 18 hospitals and 9 ambulatory surgery centers in 2 states (Ohio and Florida).

Article Synopsis
- * There are significant disparities in digital access across different regions and demographics, with some areas having up to eight times more social media penetration than others, and inequalities also present based on gender, age, and socioeconomic status.
- * To address these digital inequities, recommendations include creating supportive government policies, increasing investments in underserved areas, making digital access affordable, and enhancing digital literacy among low-resource groups.
Background: Mastectomy is performed prior to or concurrently with deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap breast reconstruction. However, the complication rates of nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) versus skin-sparing mastectomy (SSM) with DIEP are not well-characterized.
Methods: This retrospective study included patients who underwent SSM or NSM with DIEP reconstruction between January 2019 and July 2022 at an academic institution.
Background: Risk factors for in-hospital mortality related to gastrointestinal complications requiring operative intervention after cardiovascular surgery have not been previously described.
Methods: Adult patients who underwent cardiovascular surgery followed by gastrointestinal surgery during the same admission between January 2010 and June 2023 were included. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify predictors of in-hospital mortality.
