The detection of the sentinel lymph node is one of the most significant surgical advance in cancer research. This technique allow to decrease the morbidity of a surgical gesture which can be noxious in itself even without bringing a profit in survival. In the gynaecological cancers the detection of the sentinel lymph node is still at the stage of feasibility. An evaluation of the technique and the applicability in these cancers is mandatory in view of the prognostic value of the nodal involvement in these patients.

Department of Surgery, Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul, Korea.
Advances in gastric cancer screening have enabled earlier detection, shifting the focus of treatment toward preserving patients' quality of life (QoL). Function-preserving gastrectomy (FPG), including pylorus-preserving gastrectomy, proximal gastrectomy, and sentinel node navigation surgery, represents a paradigm shift in the surgical management of early gastric cancer. These techniques aim to balance oncological safety with the preservation of gastric function, mitigating postgastrectomy syndromes such as dumping syndrome, bile reflux, and nutritional deficiencies.

Purpose: Acute kidney injury is a sentinel event affecting colorectal cancer patients either as a consequence of surgery or systemic chemotherapy. It is highly correlated with both short and long-term adverse outcomes. This work aimed to study the prevalence, risk factors, and impact on survival of postoperative (PO-AKI) and post-chemotherapy (PC-AKI) after colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery in Egyptian patients.

Background And Aims: Previous studies have confirmed that alcohol can increase the sensitivity of the pancreas to stressors and exacerbate the severity of pancreatitis when excessive alcohol intake is combined with other causes. In the current work, this study attempted to explore how does alcohol regulate cerulein-induced acute pancreatitis, especially before inflammation occurs.
Methods: Proteomics was performed to analyze the differentially expressed proteins in pancreatic tissues from a rat model of pancreatitis.
Sentinel role of military dogs in detecting genotoxic agents in the environment during military operations: a pilot study.

During out-of-area military operations, the presence of carcinogenic and/or genotoxic agents has been reported, posing potential health risks to deployed soldiers. Military working dogs (MWDs), trained to detect explosives in the same environments as soldiers, could also serve as sentinel animals, providing valuable information on exposure to hazardous agents. These dogs can help identify environmental and potential adverse effects on their health and that of their handlers, possibly before relevant pathologies manifest.
