Background: Radical cystectomy (RC) and urinary diversion (UD), with either an ileal conduit (IC) or an orthotopic neobladder (NB), is a complex surgery, in which various complications can occur. In this study, we compared postoperative complication rates after a RC and UD performed for the treatment of muscle-invasive bladder cancer or recurring high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer in our center.
Methods: We retrospectively included 604 patients that underwent UDs from December 1996 to August 2015. Complications were classified by type and severity according to the Clavien-Dindo classification (CDC). Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify predictive factors of short-term (≤30 d), intermediate-term (31-90 d), and long-term (>90 d) complications.
Results: Four hundred and forty-five (74%) and 159 (26%) patients received ICs and NBs, respectively. These groups had significantly different long-term complication rates (IC: 39.7% NB: 49%, P=0.046), but similar short-term (P=0.319) and intermediate-term complication rates (P=0.397). Short-term complications (CDC I-V) were predicted by male gender, age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (aCCI) ≥3, and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score ≥3. Compared to minor short-term complications (CDC I-II), major short-term complications (CDC III-V) were predicted by male gender and a previous abdominal/pelvic surgery, and long-term major complications were predicted by the type of UD (NB).
Conclusions: The increasing risk of short-term complications with increasing aCCI and ASA score can be used when counseling the patients who are planned to undergo a RC with UD. Patients that receive NBs should be informed of the increased risk of reoperations compared to an IC.

Deep Learning-Based Prediction of Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease With the Ensemble Channel Selection Approach.
Brain Behav
January 2025
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Meybod University, Meybod, Iran.
Purpose: A debilitating and poorly understood symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD) is freezing of gait (FoG), which increases the risk of falling. Clinical evaluations of FoG, relying on patients' subjective reports and manual examinations by specialists, are unreliable, and most detection methods are influenced by subject-specific factors.
Method: To address this, we developed a novel algorithm for detecting FoG events based on movement signals.
Short-Term Outcomes of a Novel Hybrid Technique, Minimally Invasive Laparoscopic and Robotic Surgery (MILAR) Using the da Vinci SP System for Gastric Cancer.

Department of Gastric Surgery, National Cancer Center Hospital, Tokyo, Japan.
Background: Robotic surgery may have shown advantages over conventional laparoscopic surgery, but the da Vinci SP system, which utilizes a single incision, has had limited use in gastric cancer surgery. This study aims to evaluate the short-term outcomes of a novel hybrid technique, minimally invasive laparoscopic and robotic surgery (MILAR), with the da Vinci SP system for gastric cancer.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study reviewed 23 consecutive patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer using the MILAR technique with the da Vinci SP system between May and October 2024.
Placentas From SARS-CoV-2 Infection During Pregnancy Exhibit Foci of Oxidative Stress and DNA Damage.

Problem: COVID-19 during pregnancy is linked to increased maternal morbidity and a higher incidence of preterm births (PTBs), yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Cellular senescence, characterized by the irreversible cessation of cell division, is a critical process in placental function, and its dysregulation has been implicated in pregnancy complications like PTB. Senescence can be induced by various stressors, including oxidative stress, DNA damage, and viral infections.

Department of Cardiology, University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht, Netherlands.
Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is the most common cause of early mortality following heart transplantation. Although PGD can affect both ventricles, isolated right ventricular dysfunction (RV-PGD) is observed in nearly half of PGD patients. RV-PGD requires specific medical management to support the preload, afterload, and function of the failing RV; however, the use of mechanical circulatory support of the RV (RV-MCS) might be required when optimal medical therapy is insufficient in preventing forward failure and retrograde venous congestion.

Introduction: Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG) is the standard treatment for gastric cancer, during which the laparoscopic Billroth I anastomosis technique, also known as the delta-shaped anastomosis (DA), is widely performed. This study aimed to evaluate the differences in short- and long-term symptoms between DA and traditional circular anastomosis (CA) techniques.
Methods: We retrospectively compared DA and CA procedures in patients undergoing LDG and subsequent reconstruction using the Billroth I method at the Kanagawa Cancer Center from 2017 to 2022.
