Reported outcomes following cytoreductive surgery for colorectal peritoneal metastases: A systematic review to inform evidence-based practice and international consensus.

Aim: Cytoreductive surgery provides a chance for long-term survival and cure in selected patients with colorectal peritoneal metastases. As clinical and academic interest in this field increases, heterogeneity in outcome reporting hinders the valid and meaningful synthesis of data into high-quality meta-analyses. The aim of this systemic review was to investigate variability in outcome reporting following cytoreductive surgery with or without intraperitoneal chemotherapy for colorectal peritoneal metastases.

A Current Perspective of Medical Informatics Developments for a Clinical Translation of (Non-coding)RNAs and Single-Cell Technologies.

The journey from laboratory research to clinical practice is marked by significant advancements in the fields of single-cell technologies and non-coding RNA (ncRNA) research. This convergence may reshape our approach to personalized medicine, offering groundbreaking insights and treatments in various clinical settings. This chapter discusses advancements in (nc)RNAs in the clinics, innovations in single-cell technologies and algorithms, and the impact on actual precision medicine, showing the integration of single-cell and ncRNA research can have a tangible impact on precision medicine.

A comprehensive review of gum-based electrospun nanofibers for food packaging: Preparation, developments, and potential applications.

Gums represent an intriguing group of biopolymers utilized in the food industry owing to their exceptional properties. These intricate carbohydrate biomolecules possess the capacity to form gels and mucilage structures by binding with water. Their stabilizing potential, heightened viscosity, emulsifying characteristics, broad compatibility, and cost-effectiveness render them a valuable resource in the realm of food packaging.

Days at home after surgery as a perioperative outcome: scoping review and recommendations for use in health services research.

Background: Days at home after surgery is a promising new patient-centred outcome metric that measures time spent outside of healthcare institutions and mortality. The aim of this scoping review was to synthesize the use of days at home in perioperative research and evaluate how it has been termed, defined, and validated, with a view to inform future use.

Methods: The search was run on MEDLINE, Embase, and Scopus on 30 March 2023 to capture all perioperative research where days at home or equivalent was measured.
