Background: Available reports of surgeon efficiency when transitioning from laparoscopic to robotic-assisted (RA) inguinal hernia repair (IHR) are retrospective or describe single-center experience. The purpose of this study is to provide a prospective, multi-surgeon, multi-center assessment of surgeon efficiency when transitioning from Lap-IHR to RA-IHR.
Methods: General surgeons with Lap-IHR experience (≥300 Lap-IHRs prior to the study) but with no robotic experience (no RA cases one year prior to the study) consented to participate in this prospective, observational pilot study of their surgical efficiency as they adopted RA-IHR.

The size of India's food deficit became a pressing question for the Indian state in the early years of independence. As different organizations, government bodies, and individuals debated over the ways, means, and expertise needed to tide over the food crisis, policymakers realized that the primary requirement was to have a numerical understanding of the problem. Data became crucial to accurately assess production trends and compare them with requirements.

Introduction: Timely presentation to prenatal care (PNC) is especially important for patients with a history of spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB). Our objective was to identify factors that pregnant individuals with prior sPTB perceived affected the timing of initiating PNC.
Materials And Methods: We conducted in-depth interviews (IDIs) with non-Hispanic (NH) Black or NH White pregnant individuals who had a prior sPTB and presented early (<20 weeks gestation) or late (≥20 weeks gestation) to care in the index pregnancy.

Background: The mortality from breast cancer (BC) is still high in Nigeria and other low-and medium-income countries (LMICs) especially among adolescents and young adults. This is partly due to late presentation for diagnosis and treatment. It is recommended that to optimize the effectiveness of treatment, the total time which is the interval from symptom onset to initiation of treatment, should be less than 90 days as recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO).

Recent advancements in digital pathology and artificial intelligence (AI) hold promise for enhancing diagnostic accuracy. This systematic review included studies from 2000 to 2023, focusing on diagnostic accuracy in AUS/FLUS cases using AI, whole slide imaging (WSI), or both.
