Objective: To unravel the effects of different laparoscopic inguinal hernia repairs (IHRs) on inflammatory factors, oxidative stress, and postoperative recovery of inguinal hernia (IH) patients.
Methods: A total of 88 patients for laparoscopic treatment of IH were studied in a retrospective cohort, and were randomized into the transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) repair group (n = 44) and the total extraperitoneal (TEP) repair group (n = 44) according to the method of treatment. Patients in the TAPP group underwent laparoscopic TAPP IHR, while patients in the TEP group underwent laparoscopic TEP IHR.

To investigate the feasibility of predicting the risk of spontaneous preterm birth in singleton pregnancy women with low risk of preterm birth by transabdominal-transvaginal ultrasound cervical length sequential screening in the second trimester. This prospective longitudinal cohort study included singleton pregnant women at 11-13 gestational weeks who were admitted to Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from January 2023 to September 2023. Transabdominal and transvaginal cervical lengths were measured during the mid-trimester fetal ultrasound scan at 18-24 weeks, and pregnancy outcomes were obtained after delivery.

Objective: Detrusor overactivity with detrusor underactivity (DO-DU) is classically described in frail institutionalized elderly patients, but we have also observed this diagnosis in younger populations. This research aims to identify the differences between two age groups of DO-DU patients.
Materials And Methods: This study included DO-DU patients from a single center from 2012 to 2023.
Background: The evaluation of volume status is essential to clinical decision-making, yet multiple studies have shown that physical exam does not reliably estimate a patient's intravascular volume. Venous excess ultrasound score (VExUS) is an emerging volume assessment tool that utilizes inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter and pulse-wave Doppler waveforms of the portal, hepatic and renal veins to evaluate venous congestion. A point-of-care ultrasound exam initially developed by Beaubein-Souligny et al.
