Objective: To compare nationwide outcomes of robotic liver resection (RLR) with laparoscopic liver resection (LLR).
Background: Minimally invasive liver resection is increasingly performed using the robotic approach as this could help overcome inherent technical limitations of laparoscopy. It is unknown if this translates to improved patient outcomes.
Article Synopsis
- * Out of 3,530 patients, 11.6% required conversion, with robotic procedures having a lower conversion rate compared to laparoscopic ones, and conversion associated with various complications, like increased blood loss and longer hospital stays.
- * Emergency conversions showed even more severe outcomes, such as significantly higher blood loss and increased rates of intensive care admissions compared to non-emergency cases.
Producing uniform for medicinal/recreational flower production through sexual propagation has been problematic, leading to dominance of clonal propagation from "mother plants" in the cannabinoid industry, which also faces significant limitations. tissue culture (TC) methods have been developed to overcome these challenges, but the long-term health and maintenance of explants in TC have been largely overlooked in previous studies. The current study focused on the development of an efficient and optimized micropropagation protocol covering the entire process, with a specific focus on the health and performance in the multiplication stage.

Summary Background Data: Long-term survival (>5 y, LTS) remains rare in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Multiple predictors of overall survival (OS) are known but their association with LTS remains unclear.
