A comparative ultrasound and radiological investigation of gallbladder and hepatic tree function was made in patients after operation with creation of artificial stomach, Billroth I and Roux operations. The control group consisted of 30 unoperated patients. Scintigraphy discovered gallbladder dyskinesia in 12 (18.7%) patients of the study group and in 6 (20%) controls. Ultrasonography--in 15 (33.3%) patients of the study group, 5 (25%) patients after distal resection of the stomach with pyloriform gastroduodenoanastomosis, 18 (51.47%) patients operated by Roux and 5 (16.6%) controls, respectively. It is shown that normal transduodenal passage of food has a positive effect on gallbladder and liver functions.

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the most injured ligaments, with approximately 100,000 ACL reconstructions taking place annually in the United States. In order to successfully manage ACL rupture, it is of the utmost importance to understand the anatomy, unique physiology, and biomechanics of the ACL, as well as the injury mechanisms and healing capacity. Currently, the "gold standard" for the treatment of ACL ruptures is surgical reconstruction, particularly for young patients or athletes expecting to return to pivoting sports.

Recent advancement in Artificial Intelligence (AI) has rendered image-synthesis models capable of producing complex artworks that appear nearly indistinguishable from human-made works. Here we present a quantitative assessment of human perception and preference for art generated by OpenAI's DALL·E 2, a leading AI tool for art creation. Participants were presented with pairs of artworks, one human-made and one AI-generated, in either a preference-choice task or an origin-discrimination task.
