Surgical education is under tremendous pressure due to ever-increasing medical knowledge and demands on trainees' time. They must continually learn more in less time due to work hour limitations, regulations, and electronic medical record demands. Surgical training must become more efficient. There is an unprecedented array of education and training opportunities for resident preparation. The preparation for each case has to be maximal. Preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative simulation and discussions improve the educational benefit of the trainee experience. For the teaching surgeon, putting a scalpel in residents' hands requires patience, knowledge, judgment, and a leap of faith in the resident.

Article Synopsis
- A study analyzed the benefits of performing multiple bypass grafts in patients with three-vessel disease (3VD) who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
- The research included 1,008 patients who achieved complete revascularization and was focused on long-term outcomes over an average follow-up of about 86.6 months.
- Findings indicated that patients with more than three distal grafts experienced lower rates of all-cause mortality and cardiac death compared to those with fewer grafts, suggesting potential benefits from more extensive grafting during surgery.

Efficient, practical, and nondestructive analysis of complex mixtures is vital in many branches of chemistry. Here we present a new type of NMR experiment that allows the study of very challenging intact mixtures, in which subspectra of individual components can be extracted when other NMR means fail, for the case of a single, intact, static (constant composition) sample. We demonstrate the new approach, SCALPEL (Spectral Component Acquisition by Localized PARAFAC Extraction of Linear components), on a natural fermented beverage, beer, and other carbohydrate mixtures, obtaining individual carbohydrate component subspectra.

The surgical management of rectal cancer has evolved from a disease without any possibility of cure in the early 1700s where surgical management consisted of the palliative drainage of disease related abscesses to the present day where surgical cure is not only possible but also possible with sphincter or even organ preservation. Prof Habr-Gama's lecture describes the evolution of the surgical management of rectal cancer and the current focus on organ preservation.
