Seizing tumor factors for mortality and survival outcomes following liver resection in Indonesia's hepatocellular carcinoma patients.

Backgrounds/aims: The 3-year mortality rate for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in Indonesia was 94.4%. This underscores a significant health issue in Southeast Asia, particularly in Indonesia due to its large population.

Surgical resection for hepatocellular carcinoma: a single-centre's one decade of experience.

Background And Aims: Liver cancer is the third leading cause of global cancer deaths, and hepatocellular carcinoma is its most common type. Liver resection is one of the treatment options for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aims to explore our hospital's more than a decade of experience in liver resection for HCC patients.

The enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol implementation in a national tertiary-level hospital: a prospective cohort study.

Introduction: Successful colorectal surgery is determined based on postoperative mortality and morbidity rates, complication rates, and cost-effectiveness. One of the methods to obtain an excellent postoperative outcome is the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol. This study aims to see the effects of implementing an ERAS protocol in colorectal surgery patients.

Association Preoperative Protein Adequacy and Post Elective Laparotomy Surgical Site Infection.

Background/aims: Postoperative complications tend to occur in high-risk populations, including those undergoing major surgery. Surgical site infections (SSI) are some of the most common postoperative complications in laparotomy procedures. Surgery induces a postoperative stress response, triggering an inflammatory process that increases muscle protein proteolysis.

A six years' experience with 41 cases of enterovesical fistula in a Tertiary National Hospital in Indonesia: A retrospective study.

Introduction: The incidence of Enterovesical Fistula (EVF) is relatively low. Currently, there is no agreement about the best methods for EVF management. This study was performed to investigate the characteristics of EVF to find the optimal diagnostic and management pattern.

Isolated spleen tuberculosis in an immunocompetent patient, a rare case report.

Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB), as a major public health concern, is affecting almost 10 million people globally. At present, diagnostic and screening efforts mainly focus on positive smear results. Therefore, the number of extra pulmonary and negative sputum TB is rising and hampering the diagnosis and treatment process due to the large number of false negatives.

Intact Glycocalyx of Intestinal Mucosa in Intraabdominal Infection: an Investigation Using Blood Group Antigen.

Background: intestinal glycocalyx plays a role in bacterial translocation as the pathogenesis sepsis derived from intra-abdominal infections that vulnerable in certain blood types. However, the link between intestinal glycocalyx in specific types of blood groups and abdominal infections remains unknown. This study aims to find out the condition of intestinal glycocalyx in certain blood types with intraabdominal sepsis.
