Analysis of clinical investigation and surgical treatment of 284 patients with Mirizzi syndrome (MS) was carried out. According to A.Csendes and co-authors classification (1989) 223 patients had the I type of MS, 49 patients--the II type, 9 patients--the III type, 3 patients--the IV type. Diagnosis was ascertained before the operation in 27.4% of patients; with the help of ultrasound study--in 9.1%, by means of retrograde cholangiopancreatography--in 18.3%. In other cases diagnosis was determined during the operation. Mode of the operation depended on the type of MS. Perioperative duct damage was signed in 4 cases (1.4%). Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LCE) was carried out to 56 patients; cholecystectomy from mini-access--to 41 patients. Remaining 187 patients underwent abdominal operation. In 2 cases operation was finished by external duct drainage; in 7 Roo choledochojejunostoma was formed. Authors suggest that the I type of MS is not a contra-indication for LCE. In case of difficulties in LCE switch to cholecystectomy from mini-access is preferable.

The incremental value of aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase ratio combined with CURB-65 in predicting treatment outcomes in hospitalized adult community-acquired pneumonia patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
BMC Pulm Med

Department of Public Health, People's Hospital of Nanchuan, Chongqing, 408400, People's Republic of China.
Background: The features of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) differ from those without. This study aims to spot a routinely tested parameter with discriminative, predictive and prognostic value to enhance CURB-65's prognostic accuracy in CAP patients with T2DM.
Methods: We retrospectively studied consecutive CAP patients from 2020 to 2021, comparing laboratory parameters between patients with and without T2DM.

Department of Critical Care Medicine, Lishui People's Hospital Lishui 323000, Zhejiang, China.
Objective: To retrospectively evaluate the utility of diaphragmatic ultrasound parameters in assessing ventilator weaning outcomes and survival in ventilator-dependent intensive care unit (ICU) patients.
Methods: A total of 105 ventilator-dependent ICU patients admitted to our hospital between October 2019 and February 2024 were included in this study. Depending on weaning outcomes, patients were divided into a successful group (n = 86) and a failure group (n = 19).
Minimum resection length to ensure a pathologically negative distal margin and a larger remnant stomach for esophagogastric junction cancer.
Gastric Cancer
January 2025
Department of Gastroenterological Surgery, Cancer Institute Hospital, Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research, Tokyo, Japan.
Background: Ensuring a pathologically negative distal margin (DM) and preserving a larger remnant stomach is important for proximal gastrectomy (PG) in patients with esophagogastric junction (EGJ) cancer. However, the minimum DM length for ensuring negative margins has not been identified.
Methods: We enrolled patients undergoing PG or total gastrectomy for EGJ cancer.

Department of Cardiology, Wuhan Third Hospital & Tongren Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan, 430074, Hubei, China.
Background: The triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) is considered to be a reliable surrogate marker of insulin resistance (IR). However, limited evidence exists regarding its association with the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD), particularly in hypertensive patients with different glucose metabolic states, including those with H-type hypertension. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between TyG-BMI and CAD severity across different glucose metabolism conditions.
