Metformin(Met) and adipose-derived stem cell exosomes(ADSCs-Exo) both demonstrate therapeutic effects on mitochondrial dysfunction and pyroptosis. There is also a phenomenon of mutual promotion between these two pathological states. The synergistic effect of metformin-loaded exosomes (Met-Exo) via electroporation in a miniature pig liver ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) model remains unexplored.

Miniature pigs exhibit skin characteristics and healing processes highly analogous to humans. Mesenchymal stem cells contribute to skin injury repair through a paracrine mechanism involving exosomes.

Our study examined the impact of Exosomes derived from adipose mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs-Exo) on lipid metabolism following liver ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) combined with partial hepatectomy. We developed a miniature swine model for a minimally invasive hemi-hepatectomy combined with liver IRI.

Our aim was to investigate whether there were survival benefits of preoperative conization prior to MIS for early-stage cervical cancer.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients who eventually underwent definitive MIS with stage IA2 to IB1 (no >2 cm) squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, and adenosquamous carcinoma.
Objective: Conflicting data have been published regarding the oncologic appropriateness of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) in the treatment of cervical cancer. The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether our experience in the treatment of early cervical cancer using a robotic surgical approach was safe and oncologically effective.
Methods: The data of 557 patients with cervical cancer treated by robotic surgery were retrospectively collected, including the perioperative and survival outcomes.
Objective: Recent studies have shown that minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is associated with a higher recurrence rate in patients with early-stage cervical cancer. In this study, we aim to report the survival outcomes of patients with early-stage cervical cancer who received MIS, performed in a single center by the same surgeon.
Methods: Eligible participants included patients with early-stage cervical cancer in stage IA1 with lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI+), IA2, and IB1.
