Robotic Single Anastomosis Duodenal-ileal Bypass With Sleeve Gastrectomy (SADI-S) for Morbid Obesity: A Systematic Review.

Background/aim: The global obesity epidemic has seen a dramatic increase in prevalence since 1975, posing significant health and economic challenges worldwide. Robotic-assisted single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) has emerged as a promising surgical intervention for morbid obesity, offering potential advantages over traditional laparoscopic approaches in terms of precision, safety, and recovery outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of robotic-assisted SADI-S, focusing on perioperative and postoperative outcomes including intraoperative complications, operative time, conversion rates, mortality, length of hospital stay, weight loss, and postoperative complications.

Sigmoid Colon Intraluminal Obstruction by a Detached Recurrent Ascending Colon Liposarcoma.

Primary liposarcoma of the colon is extremely rare in the literature. We present a case of a 51-year-old male patient with recurrent ascending colon liposarcoma, which caused obstructive ileus, just a few days prior to his scheduled elective operation and led us to expedite his surgery. The procedure was scheduled to be a robotic right colectomy.

The Association Between Obesity and Spontaneous Temporal Bone CSF Leak Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Objective: We undertook a systematic review of the literature with meta-analysis to identify the role of obesity (BMI ≥30) in the patient characteristics presenting with spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (sCSF) leaks of the lateral skull base and the outcomes of their repair.

Data Sources: A Systematic Review of English Articles using MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library.

Review Methods: The research algorithm included the following keywords: "spontaneous CSF leak," "lateral skull base," "temporal bone," "meningocele," "encephalocele," and "otorrhea.

[Burnout and dependence among medical personnel timeless and during the COVID-19 pandemic, using surgery and anesthesia as examples].

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic affects the mental health and professional behavior of surgeons and anesthesiologists and seems to have an impact on substance dependence.

Question: What are the reasons for the occurrence of substance dependence and burnout in surgeons and anesthesiologists timelessly and during the COVID-19 pandemic and what improvement measures could help in the clinical practice?

Material And Methods: A literature search was conducted in the form of a systematic review of studies and review articles relevant to the topic.

Results: Over the years it has been shown that surgeons and anesthesiologists are prone to drug dependence due to their direct access to medications in the clinical field and work-related stress.

War Psychiatry: Identifying and Managing the Neuropsychiatric Consequences of Armed Conflicts.

War refugees and veterans have been known to frequently develop neuropsychiatric conditions including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and anxiety disorders that tend to leave a long-lasting scar and impact their emotional response system. The shear stress, trauma, and mental breakdown from overnight displacement, family separation, and killing of friends and families cannot be described enough. Victims often require years of mental health support as they struggle with sleep difficulties, recurring memories, anxiety, grief, and anger.

Fate and future of the medical students in Ukraine: A silently bubbling educational crisis.

Jain et al. reflect on the Russia‐Ukraine war and argue that although there is a broad consensus on the need for intervention, focus should be on providing immediate accommodative measures.
