Objective: Short-term complications and long-term prognoses of three kinds of digestive tract reconstructions after radical gastrectomy for distal gastric cancer were compared.
Materials And Methods: Patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for distal gastric cancer were divided into three groups according to the type of digestive tract reconstruction: Billroth I, Billroth II, and Roux-en-Y anastomosis. Clinicopathological characteristics, intraoperative conditions, short-term complications, and long-term prognoses were compared among the three groups.
Results: There were no significant differences in the clinicopathological characteristics and postoperative complications among the three groups (P > .05). There was no significant difference in the operative times of the Billroth I and Billroth II anastomosis groups, but the operative times in both groups were shorter than the operative time in the Roux-en-Y anastomosis group (P < .05). The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate in the Billroth I, Billroth II, and Roux-en-Y anastomosis groups was 58.3%, 55.0%, and 62.2%, respectively, with no significant difference among the three groups. There was no significant difference in the OS rate according to the tumor node metastasis stage among the three groups (P > .05).
Conclusion: The postoperative complications and prognoses were similar in the different digestive tract reconstruction groups. Billroth I anastomosis is a simple surgical method that can be used for gastrointestinal reconstruction after distal gastrectomy.

Background: Lung transplantation is a viable lifesaving option for patients with diffuse pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). We present a case of diffuse pulmonary AVMs associated with juvenile polyposis and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (JP-HHT) that was successfully managed by lung transplantation.
Case Presentation: A 19-year-old woman developed severe hypoxemia due to pulmonary AVMs diagnosed at 4 years of age.

Background: Although emerging evidence suggests that indole derivatives, microbial metabolites of tryptophan, may improve cardiometabolic health, the effective metabolites remain unclear. Also, the gut microbiota that involved in producing indole derivatives are less studied. We identified microbial taxa that can predict serum concentrations of the key indole metabolite indole-3-propionic acid (IPA) at population level and investigated the associations of indole derivatives and IPA-predicting microbial genera with cardiometabolic risk markers.

Objective: This study explored the value of stomach ultrasound reporting and data system (Su-RADS) and two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE) in the diagnosis of benign and malignant lesions of the gastric wall, evaluating the feasibility of combining the two methods for the diagnosis of gastric wall lesions.
Methods: 113 patients with gastric wall lesions were examined after oral gastric ultrasound contrast agent, and the grades of the gastric wall lesions were classified according to Su-RADS. Moreover, 2D-SWE was performed to measure the E value of the lesions.

Background: Optimal selection of anastomosis technique is crucial in colectomy surgeries to ensure success and minimize postoperative complications. Various methods, both manual and stapler-assisted, are employed for intestinal anastomosis. This study aims to compare two surgical methods of intestinal anastomosis through macroscopic and microscopic examination.
