Background And Objectives: Cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) can be associated with prolonged hospital stays. A novel Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) based on ERAS Society guidelines was designed and implemented. The primary outcome was ERAS compliance.

The exchange of momentum, heat and trace gases between atmosphere and surface is mainly controlled by turbulent fluxes. Turbulent mixing is usually parametrized using Monin-Obukhov similarity theory (MOST), which was derived for steady turbulence over homogeneous and flat surfaces, but is nevertheless routinely applied to unsteady turbulence over non-homogeneous surfaces. We study four years of eddy-covariance measurements at a highly heterogeneous alpine valley site in Finse, Norway, to gain insights into the validity of MOST, the turbulent transport mechanisms and the contributing coherent structures.

Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Setting: German cancer registries.
This study examines the phenotypic differences between wild-derived F2 Central Valley mosquitoes and the insecticide-susceptible Rockefeller (Rock) lab strain of . Given the rarity of wild pyrethroid-susceptible populations, the focus of this work is to develop an understanding of the resistance physiology in this invasive mosquito population and explore the potential of metabolites as diagnostic biomarkers for metabolic resistance. This study utilizes metabolomic, gene expression, and lifespan data for a comparison between strains.

The aim was to determine the disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients undergoing CRS-HIPEC for CPC and factors associated with long-term survival (LTS).
Methods: consecutive CPC patients who underwent CRS-HIPEC at a HIPEC center between 2007 and 2021 were included.
