Background: Abdominoperineal resection (APR) is the standard treatment for locally advanced distal rectal cancer (LADRC) following neoadjuvant treatment when sphincter-preserving procedures are inapplicable. However, complications such as perineal site infection, perineal hernia and postoperative ileus remain ongoing challenges. We aimed to compare the rate of postoperative ileus due to pelvic incarceration in APR patients with/without pelvic inlet closure.

Purpose: To assess the impact of the The Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score, an indicator of nutritional status, on the survival and prognosis after radical cystectomy.

Materials And Methods: The medical records of patients who underwent consecutive radical cystectomy operations with the diagnosis of muscle-invasive bladder cancer at our clinic were retrospectively examined. The patients were separated into two groups based on the cut-off CONUT score which was derived using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.

Background: There is a lot of research in terms of injuries and performance in football and nowadays aerobic capacity, spinal posture and mobility have been taken into consideration separately in terms of performance. Considering from a biomechanical perspective, we thought spinal curvature and mobility may affect aerobic performance and investigated the relationship between them.

Research Question: Do young soccer players' segmental spinal curvature and mobility affect their aerobic capacity and maximal exercise performance?

Methods: Thirty-four young league players (mean age 16.

: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) share several pathophysiological mechanisms. While the prevalence of MASLD has been extensively studied in PCOS populations, the occurrence of PCOS among female adolescents with transient elastography (TE)-confirmed MASLD in pediatric hepatology settings remains poorly characterized. This cross-sectional study aims to address this knowledge gap and elucidate potential clinical and biochemical differences between female adolescents with MASLD and comorbid PCOS compared to those without PCOS.
