Polycystic liver disease (PLD) is a hereditary condition, and its symptoms are due to the growth of cysts. Liver transplantation (LT) is the only curative treatment. A retrospective single-center analysis was conducted on the 10 LTs performed for PLD between 2004 and 2023.

Transplant Proc

Infectious complications significantly impact morbidity and mortality following lung transplantation (LuTx), with over 25% of post-transplant deaths attributed to infections. Antibiotic prophylaxis during the surgical procedure is crucial for reducing early infections, though the current use of wide-spectrum antibiotics, especially in cases of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), is contentious and varies widely across centre. This practice raises concerns about antimicrobial resistance (AMR), particularly in immunosuppressed patients requiring lifelong healthcare access.

Int J Cosmet Sci
January 2025
Makeup Products Research, Kao Corporation, Odawara, Japan.
Objective: Currently, nasolabial folds are mainly removed by invasive procedures, resulting in long-lasting changes, as non-surgical user-implementable alternatives are scarce and inefficient. For example, the use of coating films for this purpose has thus far faced substantial difficulties because such films should combine the antithetical properties of shrinkability and flexibility. Herein, we challenge this status quo by identifying a polymer that simultaneously exhibits shrinkability and flexibility and using this polymer to develop a cosmetic formulation for immediate and non-invasive nasolabial fold removal.

Oral Maxillofac Surg
January 2025
Department of Maxillofacial Surgery, Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, Institute of Science Tokyo, 1-5-45, Yushima, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, 113-8510, Japan.
Purpose: Current scapular free flap (SFF) harvest in mandibular reconstruction often requires repositioning, hindering simultaneous harvest and resection and potentially increasing ischemic time. This study evaluated the efficacy of the pull-through technique (PTT) for SFF harvest, aiming to reduce ischemic time during mandibular segmental resection.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 24 patients who underwent mandibular reconstruction using SFF at two maxillofacial surgery departments between January 2015 and May 2022.
Speech-mediated manipulation of da Vinci surgical system for continuous surgical flow.
Biomed Eng Lett
January 2025
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Seoul National University College of Medicine, 103 Daehak-ro, Jongno- gu, Seoul, 03080 Republic of Korea.
Unlabelled: With the advent of robot-assisted surgery, user-friendly technologies have been applied to the da Vinci surgical system (dVSS), and their efficacy has been validated in worldwide surgical fields. However, further improvements are required to the traditional manipulation methods, which cannot control an endoscope and surgical instruments simultaneously. This study proposes a speech recognition control interface (SRCI) for controlling the endoscope via speech commands while manipulating surgical instruments to replace the traditional method.
