Background: Reduced-port laparoscopic surgery (RPLS) uses the minimum possible number of ports or small-sized ports in laparoscopic surgery. The combination of RPLS and natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) minimizes the procedural damage.
Methods: A total of 17 patients diagnosed with right colon cancer were included: 5 patients in the RPLS + NOSE group and 12 patients in the conventional laparoscopic surgery (CL) + mini-laparotomy (ML) group.
Article Synopsis
- Schizophrenia is a multifaceted disorder with a range of symptoms including positive (hallucinations), negative (social withdrawal), and disorganized symptoms, along with often-present cognitive and depressive symptoms that can complicate the clinical picture.
- A study involving 105 schizophrenia patients revealed that disorganized and obsessive-compulsive symptoms were key factors linked to depressive symptoms, while a longer duration of untreated psychosis correlated with less severe depressive symptoms, highlighting the importance of early intervention.
- The findings suggest a complex relationship between psychotic and depressive symptoms, emphasizing the need for integrated treatment strategies that address both types of symptoms to enhance patient care and outcomes.*
Article Synopsis
- * A single-port system was utilized for dissection around key anatomical landmarks, including Toldt’s and Gerota’s fascia, which facilitated access to the ileocolic vessels and lymph nodes while minimizing complications associated with past surgical adhesions.
- * The operation lasted 240 minutes with minimal blood loss and low postoperative pain, indicating that this approach is safe and effective, allowing for successful treatment of cecal colon cancer and ensuring a manageable recovery time of 7 days
Background: Colorectal cancer is among the most common cancers in the world, and splenic flexure colon cancer accounts for about 2-5% of them. There is still no consensus on the surgical treatment of splenic flexure colon cancer (SFCC), and the extent of surgical resection and lymph node dissection for SFCC is still controversial.
Aim: To compare the postoperative and long-term oncologic outcomes of extended right colectomy (ERC), segmental colectomy (SC) and left colectomy (LC) for SFCC.
Neurobiochemical Disturbances in Psychosis and their Implications for Therapeutic Intervention.
Curr Top Med Chem

Psychosis, marked by the emergence of psychotic symptoms, delves into the intricate dance of neurotransmitter dynamics, prominently featuring dopamine as a key orchestrator. In individuals living with psychotic conditions, the finely tuned balance of dopamine becomes disrupted, setting off a cascade of perceptual distortions and the manifestation of psychotic symptoms. A lot of factors can impact dopamine metabolism, further complicating its effects.
