Several proximal anastomosis devices have been developed to facilitate the creation of a clampless, hand-sewn coronary artery bypass-to-ascending aorta anastomosis. An Enclose II anastomosis assist device (Novare Surgical Systems, Cupertino, CA) is a device commonly used for this purpose. We demonstrate a new, easy, and safe technique for cutting the aortic wall and making a punch hole over the aorta.

Intelligent shipping: integrating autonomous maneuvering and maritime knowledge in the Singapore-Rotterdam Corridor.
Commun Eng
January 2025
School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, Singapore.
Designing safe and reliable routes is the core of intelligent shipping. However, existing methods for industrial use are inadequate, primarily due to the lack of considering company preferences and ship maneuvering characteristics. To address these challenges, here we introduce a methodological framework that integrates maritime knowledge and autonomous maneuvering model.

Commun Med (Lond)
January 2025
Rare Disease Translational Center, The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, ME, USA.
Background: Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency (MSD) is a rare inherited lysosomal storage disorder characterized by loss of function mutations in the SUMF1 gene that manifests as a severe pediatric neurological disease. There are no available targeted therapies for MSD.
Methods: We engineered a viral vector (AAV9/SUMF1) to deliver working copies of the SUMF1 gene and tested the vector in Sumf1 knock out mice that generally display a median lifespan of 10 days.

Introduction: Aneurysmal bone cysts are locally aggressive bone lesions. The aim of this study was to evaluate safety and effectiveness of radio-opaque gelified ethanol sclerotherapy in treating primary aneurysmal bone cyst.
Materials And Methods: In this single-center, retrospective study (January 1st, 2012, to June 30th, 2024), 32 patients with primary aneurysmal bone cysts were treated with percutaneous sclerotherapy using radio-opaque gelified ethanol at various skeletal sites.
Implementation of intraoperative procedures to prevent anastomotic leak in low anterior rectal resections: a pilot study for a novel technique to evaluate anastomotic vascularization.

Introduction: Altered vascular microcirculation is recognized as a risk factor for anastomotic leakage (AL) in colorectal surgery. However, few studies evaluated its impact on AL using different devices, with heterogeneous results. The present study reported the initial experience measuring gut microcirculatory density and flow with the aid of incidence dark-field (IDF) videomicroscopy (Cytocam, Braedius, Amsterdam, The Netherlands) comparing its operative outcome using a propensity score matching (PSM) model based on age, gender, and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI).

Background: This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics and esophageal motility of patients with gastric cardia submucosal tumors (SMTs) and the associated changes after endoscopic resection based on high-resolution impedance manometry (HRIM).
Methods: From our electronic database, we identified patients who underwent pre-operative evaluation of gastric cardia SMTs between 2015 and 2023. All patients completed standardized symptom questionnaires and underwent endoscopic ultrasonography and HRIM.
