Intussusception in children may recur after surgical correction. Ileopexy has popularly been used as a procedure to prevent recurrent intussusception, but its effect has not been well evaluated. The present study compared the incidence of recurrent intussusception after several different surgical procedures for intussusception in children. The charts of 278 children undergoing surgical reduction of ileocolic intussusception over 17 years were retrospectively reviewed. The incidence of recurrent intussusception was compared among the three surgical procedures: simple manual reduction, manual reduction plus ileopexy, and segmental resection. Simple manual reduction was performed in 67 (24.1%) of the 278 patients, manual reduction plus ileopexy in 186 (66.9%), and resection of the involved segment in 25 (9.0%). There were four episodes of recurrence in three (4%) patients who had had manual reduction, nine episodes in eight (4%) patients who had undergone ileopexy, and none after segmental resection. There was no statistical difference in recurrent rate among the three groups (reduction vs. ileopexy, P = 0.95; reduction vs. resection, P = 0.28; ileopexy vs. resection, P = 0.29). Ileopexy is not better than simple manual reduction in preventing recurrence of ileocolic intussusception in children.

Fully automated coronary artery calcium score and risk categorization from chest CT using deep learning and multiorgan segmentation: A validation study from National Lung Screening Trial (NLST).

Department of Radiology, Frimley Park Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Camberley, Surrey, UK.
Background: The National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) has shown that screening with low dose CT in high-risk population was associated with reduction in lung cancer mortality. These patients are also at high risk of coronary artery disease, and we used deep learning model to automatically detect, quantify and perform risk categorisation of coronary artery calcification score (CACS) from non-ECG gated Chest CT scans.
Materials And Methods: Automated calcium quantification was performed using a neural network based on Mask regions with convolutional neural networks (R-CNN) for multiorgan segmentation.
Iterative optimization annotation pipeline and ALSS-YOLO-Seg for efficient banana plantation segmentation in UAV imagery.

Precise segmentation of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-captured images plays a vital role in tasks such as crop yield estimation and plant health assessment in banana plantations. By identifying and classifying planted areas, crop areas can be calculated, which is indispensable for accurate yield predictions. However, segmenting banana plantation scenes requires a substantial amount of annotated data, and manual labeling of these images is both timeconsuming and labor-intensive, limiting the development of large-scale datasets.

Methods: Between April 2022 and December 2023, 234 children with simple CHD who underwent CPB via a right-side small incision approach were separated into a control group (n = 93) without the use of a CO field-flooding device and a treatment group (n = 141) in which this device was added to the traditional surgical manual exhaust. Demographic, perioperative, arterial blood gas (ABG), and laboratory test data were then compared between these groups of patients.
