Objective: To investigate the impact of bilateral subcostal rooftop incision under bilateral costal margins combined double lifting retractors on the recent surgical outcome of obese patients with advanced gastric cancer.
Patients And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 138 obese patients with gastric cancer under radical gastrectomy. The patients were divided into two groups, the MI group (n=68) and RI group (n=70). Patients in MI group were treated by midline incision via upper abdomen combined single double lifting retractor technology while the patients in RI group were treated by roof incision under bilateral costal margins under combined double lifting technology. The abdomen entering and closing time, the operation time, bleeding volume, blood transfusion rate, postoperative drainage volume, postoperative hospitalization time, postoperative detected number of perigastric lymph node, postoperative pain score, postoperative complications and short-term survival between the two groups were compared and analyzed.
Results: The average abdominal entering and closing time of RI group were slightly longer than MI group, but the average total operation time of RI group was shorter than MI group. The average bleeding volume was 98.4 ± 46.8 ml, the postoperative intraperitoneal drainage was 24 h (123.8 ± 69.0 ml), 48 h (101.9±36.7 ml), 72 h (45.1±24.6 ml), and the postoperative hospitalization time was 12.9 ± 2.5 d, and the incidence of postoperative complications was 17.1%, all of which were less than MI group. The difference on the average total detected number of perigastric lymph node between the two groups was not statistically significant. 129 cases (93.5%) were followed up for 12 to 36 months, and the difference on survival curve between the two groups was not statistically significant (p>0.05).
Conclusions: Bilateral subcostal rooftop incision was favorable for exposing the stomach, adjacent organs and large vessels, convenient for operation and would not affect the postoperative recovery, so it was a good choice for obese patients with gastric cancer.

Background: There is continuous demand for safe, effective cosmetic ingredients to treat the signs of aging skin, including fine lines, wrinkles, brown spots, discoloration, laxity, and sagging. While there are a plethora of cosmeceutical peptides, few combine anti-aging and anti-inflammatory benefits with small size.
Methods: Preclinical and clinical studies evaluated the anti-inflammatory properties, anti-aging benefits, and tolerability of acetyl dipeptide-31 amide (AP31), a novel, small, anti-aging micropeptide, to understand its impact as a multifaceted, cosmetic, anti-aging, and anti-inflammaging ingredient.
Cationic Coordination Modification Drives Birefringence and Nonlinear Effect Double Lifting in Sulfate.

As nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals, sulfates have the superiority of transparency for ultraviolet (UV) light, but they are often troubled by small nonlinear coefficients and birefringence owing to the high symmetry of the [SO] group. By introducing two neutral diethylenetriamine (DETA) molecules to replace the six coordinated water molecules of the [Zn(HO)] complex cation in [Zn(HO)](SO)(HO), a new sulfate with an acentric structure, namely, [Zn(DETA)](SO)(HO), has been designed and synthesized. Structural investigation reveals that the coordination modification of Zn ion tremendously enhances its intraoctahedral distortion.

Article Synopsis
- The study focused on thread lifting, a cosmetic procedure, and tested the effects of using both thicker and thinner threads in different skin layers on 43 patients.
- Researchers evaluated the outcomes through ultrasonography and patient satisfaction measurements immediately after and six months post-procedure.
- Results showed that multi-layered thread insertion significantly improved patient satisfaction and aesthetic scores, indicating that this method is more effective than inserting threads in a single layer.

Background: The perioperative use of the Impella 5.5 has been increasing recently; however, the left ventricular perforation by this device during surgery has not been reported to date.
Case Presentation: Postinfarction ventricular septal rupture in a 75-year-old man was successfully repaired with support of a single Impella 5.

Article Synopsis
- - This study presents a novel technique for generating dual-mode vortex lasing with a topological charge of -2 using specially designed photonic crystals that support certain bound states.
- - The researchers created a hexagonal pattern of TiO nanoparticles in a crystal slab to achieve these bound states at a specific point (the Γ point), while adjusting the shape of the crystal led to lasing occurring at off-Γ points, producing two closely spaced laser peaks.
- - The characteristics of the lasing include a coherence time of approximately 1.4 picoseconds with pulsed pumping, and polarizing measurements show that the two lasing peaks are orthogonally polarized.
