Higher Adherence to ERAS Society® Recommendations is Associated with Shorter Hospital Stay Without an Increase in Postoperative Complications or Readmissions in Bariatric Surgery: the Association Between Use of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Protocols and Postoperative Complications after Bariatric Surgery (POWER 3) Multicenter Observational Study.

Purpose: The effectiveness of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways in patients undergoing bariatric surgery remains unclear. Our objective was to determine the effect of the ERAS elements on patient outcomes following elective bariatric surgery.

Materials And Methods: Prospective cohort study in adult patients undergoing elective bariatric surgery.

Antibacterial and Antifungal Activity of the Human Endometrial Fluid during the Natural Cycle.

Purpose: Some microbiota patterns have been associated with favorable IVF prognosis and others with pathological conditions. The endometrial fluid aspirate (EFA) contains antibacterial proteins that are enriched in implantative IVF cycles, but the antimicrobial effect of EFA has not been addressed. We aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the human endometrial fluid during the natural cycle.

In-depth proteomics and natural peptidomics analyses reveal antibacterial peptides in human endometrial fluid.

The composition of endometrial fluid reflects the status of the endometrium; it is a good atraumatic source of information on embryo implantation processes and possible pathological conditions. Although some attempts have been made to characterise its proteome, the catalogue of its proteins remains incomplete and little has been done to analyse the natural peptides it contains. Here, we present a comprehensive analysis of the proteins and natural peptides of the endometrial fluid.
