Background: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery has been a widely accepted method for treating coronary artery disease. However, its postoperative complications can have a significant effect on long-term patient outcomes. A retrospective study was conducted to identify before and after surgery that contribute to postoperative stroke in patients undergoing CABG, and to develop predictive models and recommendations for single-factor thresholds.

Introduction And Objective: Radical Cystectomy (RC) is one of the most common and complex surgical procedures in urologic surgery, and benign ureteroenteric anastomosis strictures (UAS) are complications described in about 15% of patients undergoing RC with different urinary diversion (UD). The aim of this study is to evaluate and analyze risk factors related to the development of ureteral stenosis after RC.
Materials And Methods: All consecutive patients who underwent RC with ileal conduit from December 2019 to December 2022 were included.

5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA)-induced protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) fluorescence shows high sensitivity in detecting the tumor core of high-grade gliomas (HGG) but poor sensitivity for tissue of low-grade gliomas (LGG) and the margins of HGG. The characteristic emission peak for PpIX is known to be located at 635 nm. Recently, a second emission peak was described at 620 nm wavelength in LGG and the tumor infiltration zone of HGG.
