Treatment of an open abdomen (OA) wound combined with an intestinal fistula is a challenge in the clinic. Here, inspired by the antibacterial activity of graphene (G) and its derivatives, we present a hybrid patch based on the ability of graphene and polycaprolactone (PCL) to kill bacteria and save the cells in a wound. Benefiting from the antibacterial ability of graphene oxide (GO), cells could survive in the presence of bacteria. With the increased ability to protect cells, this patch accelerated wound healing in an OA and intestinal fistula wound model. Additionally, the sub-acute toxicity score showed no extra damage to organs. In conclusion, the employment of the hybrid material for an OA and an intestinal fistula wound healing is encouraging. A hybrid patch based on graphene oxide and polycaprolactone electrospun was generated for open abdomen and fistula wound. The application of the hybrid patch could save the cells from bacteria which contribute to accelerating wound healing.

This study aims to mine and analyze adverse events (AEs) of Vedolizumab based on the FAERS database to better understand its safety and potential risks in the real world. Data from the second quarter of 2014 to the third quarter of 2023 were collected, employing various signal mining methods such as Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR), Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR), Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network (BCPNN), and Empirical Bayesian Geometric Mean (EBGM). The study gathered 14,753,012 reports of AEs, of which 46,726 were related to Vedolizumab.

Acta Gastroenterol Belg
January 2025
Hospital Clínic de Barcelona, Department of Gastroenterology, IDIBAPS, CIBERehd, Barcelona, Spain.
Background And Study Aims: Crohn's disease (CD) is often complicated by perianal fistulas or abscesses that worsen patient's quality of life, with 52-88% of CD-related perianal fistulas (CPFs) being complex. This retrospective study describes sociodemographic characteristics, treatment patterns and outcomes of patients with complex CPFs in five European countries.
Patients And Methods: PREFACE is a multi-national medical chart review study of CD patients who started medical or surgical treatment for a new episode of complex CPFs between September 2011 and September 2014 (index date).
Experiences of Surgical Approach for Aortoduodenal Fistula Repairs in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Patients.

Department of Surgery, Gangnam Severance Hospital, Yonsei University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.
Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the characteristics and outcomes of patients with an aortoduodenal fistula (ADF) who underwent surgical treatment at a single institution.
Materials And Methods: The data of patients diagnosed with ADF at the Yonsei University Gangnam Severance Hospital, South Korea, between 2019 and 2022 were included. Primary repair and segmental resection of the duodenum with duodeno-jejunostomy were the two main methods used to repair ADF.
Real-world individual and comparative analysis of adverse event reporting for adalimumab and etanercept using public FDA adverse event reporting system data.
Arch Dermatol Res

Department of Dermatology, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, No. 1277, Jiefang Avenue, Wuhan, 430022, China.
Objective: We analyzed adverse events (AEs) related to adalimumab and etanercept using the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) to detect unexpected AEs. Subsequently, we compared the discrepancy in serious outcomes involving the same injection site reactions (ISRs) between two different medications.
Methods: Four algorithms, including reporting odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN), and the multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker (MGPS) were used to identify AE signals.
colorectal cancer is a common and serious condition, with surgical resection being the primary treatment for localized cases. Anastomotic dehiscence (AD) remains a significant postoperative complication, and anastomoses are typically created using either manual suturing or mechanical stapling, each with specific benefits and challenge. Material and this retrospective study analyzed outcomes in 100 rectal cancer patients who underwent surgical resection, with anastomoses performed via manual suturing (n=50) or mechanical stapling (n=50).
