The femoral vascular access may be the only alternative when the upper limbs venous capital is exhausted. Five patients benefited from the setting up of a tunneled femoral catheter, for a median period of three months (three months minimum, eleven months maximum). No early complication has been observed. The infectious and thrombotic problems were late to appear and with no serious consequences. The new generation of biocompatible and flexible catheters can keep in place for a long time in femoral.

Contrastive learning with transformer for adverse endpoint prediction in patients on DAPT post-coronary stent implantation.
Front Cardiovasc Med
January 2025
Department of Artificial Intelligence and Informatics, Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, FL, United States.
Background: Effective management of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) following drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation is crucial for preventing adverse events. Traditional prognostic tools, such as rule-based methods or Cox regression, despite their widespread use and ease, tend to yield moderate predictive accuracy within predetermined timeframes. This study introduces a new contrastive learning-based approach to enhance prediction efficacy over multiple time intervals.

University of Florida, Department of Ophthalmology, USA.
Purpose: Human amniotic membrane (hAM) grafts have been used to close persistent macular holes in recent years. The results from these surgeries are promising with improved closure rate and vision. However, there is lack of data for what happens to these membranes and how long the tissue should remain inside the patient's eyes.

January 2025
Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Hunan Provincial People's Hospital (The First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan Normal University), Changsha 410005, Hunan Province, China.
Background: Pancreatic cancer involving the pancreas neck and body often invades the retroperitoneal vessels, making its radical resection challenging. Multimodal treatment strategies, including neoadjuvant therapy, surgery, and postoperative adjuvant therapy, are contributing to a paradigm shift in the treatment of pancreatic cancer. This strategy is also promising in the treatment of pancreatic neck-body cancer.

Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Affiliated Nantong Hospital Third of Nantong University, Nantong 226006, Jiangsu Province, China.
Background: Intraoperative and postoperative biliary injuries remain significant complications of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE). Indocyanine green (ICG) has been shown to significantly reduce injuries caused by intraoperative operational errors. We found that the J-tube can reduce postoperative strictures and injuries to the common bile duct.
