Comprehensive Review of Natural Language Processing (NLP) in Vascular Surgery.

Objective: The use of Natural Language Processing (NLP) has attracted increased interest in healthcare with various potential applications including identification and extraction of health information, development of chatbots and virtual assistants. The aim of this comprehensive literature review was to provide an overview of NLP applications in vascular surgery, identify current limitations, and discuss future perspectives in the field.

The Light-Controlled Release of 2-fluoro-l-fucose, an Inhibitor of the Root Cell Elongation, from a nitrobenzyl-caged Derivative.

Glycan metabolic engineering is a powerful tool for studying the glycosylation in living plant cells. The use of modified monosaccharides such as deoxy or fluorine-containing glycosides has been reported as a powerful pharmacological approach for studying the carbohydrate metabolism. 1,3,4-tri--acetyl-2-fluoro-l-fucose (2F-Fuc) is a potent inhibitor of the plant cell elongation.

Synthesis of chemical tools to label the mycomembrane of corynebacteria using modified iron(III) chloride-mediated protection of trehalose.

Trehalose-based probes are useful tools that allow the detection of the mycomembrane of mycobacteria through the metabolic labeling approach. Trehalose analogues conjugated to fluorescent probes can be used, and other probes are functionalized with a bioorthogonal chemical reporter for a two-step labeling approach. The synthesis of such trehalose-based probes mainly relies on the desymmetrization of natural trehalose using a large number of regioselective protection-deprotection steps to differentiate the eight hydroxyl groups.

Intracorporeal urinary diversion during robot-assisted radical cystectomy using indocyanine green.

Unlabelled: INTRODUCTION To describe the feasibility of total intracorporeal urinary diversion during robotic assisted radical cystectomy using indocyanine green (ICG) and the Firefly system of the da Vinci Xi robot and to evaluate the digestive and urinary outcomes of this technique.

Materials And Methods: After approval by the Institutional Review Board, we studied all consecutive patients who underwent robotic assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) and intracorporeal urinary derivation (ICUD) with the da Vinci Xi robot using ICG and the Firefly system, in our institution from January 1st 2018 to September 15th 2018. Pre, intra and postoperative data were analyzed with a follow up of at least 1 month.
