Background: Because of the learning curve required to master laparoscopic procedures, there is a growing concern that patient safety may be compromised due to technical errors by a novice surgeon. We evaluated the effect of videotape debriefing on the performance of a complex laparoscopic procedure.
Methods: Twenty-four surgical residents performed a laparoscopic jejunojejunal anastomosis under the supervision of a single laparoscopic surgeon. All procedures were videotaped. Half of the residents underwent video debriefing. Videotapes were analyzed for knot-tying time, anastomotic time, and frequency of minor technical errors and adverse events. The performance of the debriefed group was compared with a non-debriefed group.
Results: Knot-tying time, minor errors, and anastomotic time were similar between the debriefed and non-debriefed groups. However, adverse events from technical errors were more frequent in the non-debriefed group (chi2 = 7.647, P = .006).
Conclusions: Postoperative video debriefing is an effective educational tool for reducing adverse events during a complex laparoscopic procedure.

Context: Ionization and adsorption in gas discharge are similar to electrophilic and nucleophilic reactions. The molecular descriptors characterizing reactions such as electrostatic potential descriptors are useful in predicting the electrical strength of environmentally friendly gases. In this study, descriptors of 73 molecules are employed for correlation analysis with electrical strength.

Classification systems for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) play an important role in guiding both surgical planning and conservative treatments. Traditional 2D classification systems, such as the Lenke, King and Lehnert-Schroth classifications, have been widely used for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of scoliosis. However, with the growing understanding of the three-dimensional nature of scoliosis and advancements in 3D reconstruction technologies, 3D classification systems are gaining increasing attention.

Department of Radiology, University of Missouri, Columbia, Missouri, USA.
Purpose: The aim of the work is to develop a cascaded diffusion-based super-resolution model for low-resolution (LR) MR tagging acquisitions, which is integrated with parallel imaging to achieve highly accelerated MR tagging while enhancing the tag grid quality of low-resolution images.
Methods: We introduced TagGen, a diffusion-based conditional generative model that uses low-resolution MR tagging images as guidance to generate corresponding high-resolution tagging images. The model was developed on 50 patients with long-axis-view, high-resolution tagging acquisitions.

Purpose: This work aims to raise a novel design for navigator-free multiband (MB) multishot uniform-density spiral (UDS) acquisition and reconstruction, and to demonstrate its utility for high-efficiency, high-resolution diffusion imaging.
Theory And Methods: Our design focuses on the acquisition and reconstruction of navigator-free MB multishot UDS diffusion imaging. For acquisition, radiofrequency-pulse encoding was used to achieve controlled aliasing in parallel imaging in MB imaging.
