Objectives: To compare the efficacy of laparoscopic transabdominal cerclage (TAC) pre-pregnancy and laparoscopic TAC in pregnancy in treating cervical insufficiency.
Method: A retrospective analytical study comparing outcomes of laparoscopic TAC pre-pregnancy with laparoscopic TAC in pregnancy. A total of 178 patients who underwent laparoscopic TAC at our hospital were enrolled in the study. In total, 122 patients underwent interval cerclage, and 56 patients underwent cerclage during pregnancy.
Results: A total of 178 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included in the analysis. Second-trimester abortions decreased by 50%, with an overall increase in full-term live births (32.53%) in patients undergoing laparoscopic TAC pre-pregnancy. The fetal survival rate was around 90% and 85% with laparoscopic TAC pre-pregnancy and laparoscopic TAC in pregnancy, respectively. Although the obstetric outcomes of laparoscopic TAC pre-pregnancy and in pregnancy were comparable, laparoscopic TAC pre-pregnancy was safer than laparoscopic TAC in pregnancy due to the complications associated with the procedure during pregnancy.
Conclusions: Laparoscopic TAC pre-pregnancy yielded better reproductive outcomes than laparoscopic TAC in pregnancy and was associated with fewer perioperative complications.

A novel intraoperative Esophagus-Sparing Anastomotic Narrowing Revision (ESANR) technique for patients who underwent esophagojejunostomy: three case reports and a review of the literature.
World J Surg Oncol

Department of General Surgery, The Affiliated Nanchong Central Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College (University), Nanchong, 637000, China.
Aim: The aim of this study was to introduce the Esophagus-Sparing Anastomotic Narrowing Revision (ESANR) technique for the intraoperative management of anastomotic narrowing and to conduct a literature review to provide an algorithm for the management of narrowing and strictures that may develop secondary to esophagojejunostomy.
Methods: Three patients with anastomotic narrowing during esophagojejunostomy were analyzed between September 2019 and June 2024. The anastomotic narrowing was detected by intraoperative gastroscopy after reconstruction.
Crocin Supplementation on Inflammation and Oxidative Stress: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Article Synopsis
- Saffron, derived from Crocus sativus flowers, contains crocin, a compound with potential anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, although research results have varied.
- A meta-analysis of 13 randomized clinical trials found that crocin supplementation significantly lowered levels of inflammatory markers like CRP, TNF-α, and IL-6 while increasing total antioxidant capacity (TAC).
- The most pronounced effects were observed with doses of 30 mg or more per day over at least 12 weeks, though crocin did not significantly impact erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) or malondialdehyde (MDA) levels.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the obstetric outcomes of transabdominal cerclage (TAC) in Japan.
Methods: Questionnaires on TAC were sent to 183 institutions performing high-quality perinatal management in Japan. As a first-step questionnaire, we asked whether TAC was performed between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2022.
Association Between Dietary Intake After Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery and Antioxidant/inflammatory Status: A 6-Month Pilot Prospective Cohort Study.

Background/aim: Adipose tissue can increase levels of inflammation and oxidative stress, which explains the relationship between obesity and many chronic diseases. Weight loss, changes in adipose tissue metabolism, and dietary nutrient intake changes following bariatric surgery could affect a number of oxidative- and inflammation-related factors. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the potential relationship between dietary intake and inflammatory/antioxidant markers in the 6 months following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB).

Preterm birth is the leading cause of perinatal and neonatal morbidity and mortality in the developed world. An important cause of preterm birth is cervical insufficiency, leading to membrane prolapse, premature rupture of membranes, and mid-trimester pregnancy loss. A cerclage can be placed vaginally or abdominally to treat cervical insufficiency.
