Background: Textbook outcome is a composite quality measurement in esophageal cancer surgery. This study aimed to estimate the rate of textbook outcome esophagectomies at a high-volume center and investigate associations between textbook outcome and overall and recurrence-free survival.
Methods: A retrospective single-center study was conducted at Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet, Denmark, analyzing esophagectomies performed from November 1, 2016, to December 31, 2021.
Buildings are essential in satisfying our daily need for comfort (privacy, protection from weather, etc.) and are responsible for almost half of the world's total energy consumption. Research at the interface of room comfort and energy efficiency is of critical societal importance.

The technical advantages enable several abdominal surgical procedures to be performed minimally invasive instead of open surgery. Furthermore, procedures previously performed successfully using standard laparoscopy are now performed with a robotic approach, with conflicting results.

- The PRECISe trial is a randomized controlled study that investigates whether higher enteral protein intake improves recovery in critically ill adults on mechanical ventilation, focusing on primary and secondary health outcomes using a Bayesian analysis approach.
- The primary outcome evaluates quality of life through the EQ-5D-5L score, along with various secondary outcomes, including walking test performance, handgrip strength, and mortality rates, assessed throughout the study period.
- The study aims to provide insights into the effects of high protein diets in critically ill patients by applying both weakly informative and more specific priors in its analysis, ensuring robust evaluation of the results.
Lettuce big vein disease is a disease complex involving at least two RNA viruses, both transmitted by the soilborne fungus . Here, we present the genomic sequence of a novel unrelated third negative-stranded RNA virus, belonging to the family , recovered from infected lettuce plants.
