A 53-year-old man presented to the emergency department with chest and back pain. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography( CT) revealed a Stanford type A acute aortic dissection with a pseudo-lumen occlusion. On the same day, the patient underwent emergent aortic arch replacement with frozen elephant trunk. When introducing cardiopulmonary bypass, arterial cannula was inserted into the right femoral artery. The day after surgery, swelling of the right lower leg appeared with CK and intramuscular compartment pressure elevation. Thus, the patient was diagnosed with compartment syndrome and decompressive fasciotomy was performed. Although there was no preoperative blood flow disturbance in the lower extremities on preoperative CT, lower limbs ischemia happened. Necrotic muscles in his right leg required debridement, but amputation was not needed. The patient was discharged unaided utilising orthotics on the day 120. In muscular, young male patients, care should be taken in the method of blood delivery.

Objective: Cloud-based, surgical augmented intelligence (Cydar Medical, Cambridge, UK) can be used for surgical planning and intraoperative imaging guidance during complex endovascular aortic procedures. We aim to evaluate radiation exposure, operative safety metrics, and post-operative renal outcomes following implementation of Cydar imaging guidance using a manually matched cohort of aortic procedures.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed our prospectively maintained database of endovascular aortic cases.
Transportation Insecurity, Social Support, and Adherence to Cancer Screening.
JAMA Netw Open

S-SPIRE Center, Department of Surgery, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, California.
Importance: Transportation insecurity and lack of social support are 2 understudied social determinants of health that contribute to excess morbidity, mortality, and acute health care utilization. However, whether and how these social determinants of health are associated with cancer screening has not been determined and has implications for preventive care.
Objective: To determine whether transportation insecurity or social support are associated with screening adherence for colorectal, breast, and cervical cancer.
Categorization of 34 computational methods to detect spatially variable genes from spatially resolved transcriptomics data.
Nat Commun

In the analysis of spatially resolved transcriptomics data, detecting spatially variable genes (SVGs) is crucial. Numerous computational methods exist, but varying SVG definitions and methodologies lead to incomparable results. We review 34 state-of-the-art methods, classifying SVGs into three categories: overall, cell-type-specific, and spatial-domain-marker SVGs.

Background: Acute Stanford Type A aortic dissection (AAD-type A) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) present with similar symptoms but require distinct treatments. Efficient differentiation is critical due to limited access to radiological equipment in many primary healthcare. This study develops a multimodal deep learning model integrating electrocardiogram (ECG) signals and laboratory indicators to enhance diagnostic accuracy for AAD-type A and AMI.
