Objective: To compare the short-term results after left-sided laparoscopic colectomy with transanal and transabdominal specimen extraction.
Material Land Methods: We selected 998 appropriate manuscripts and subsequently excluded 995 ones due to exclusion criteria. Thus, the meta-analysis was based on 3 randomized trials in accordance with PRISMA recommendations.
Results: A total of 353 patients were enrolled in meta-analysis including 169 resections with transanal specimen extraction and 184 surgeries with transabdominal extraction. Overall risk of postoperative complications (OR=0.60; 95% CI 0.31-1.14; =0.12) including anastomotic leakage (OR=1.83; 95% CI 0.43-7.89; =0.42) was similar in both groups. At the same time, severity of pain syndrome (mean difference = -2.35; 95% CI -2.51-2.19), time to the first flatus discharge (mean difference = -0.92; 95% CI -0.99-0.85) and postoperative hospital stay (mean difference = -1.5; 95% CI -2.03-0.98) were significantly lower in the group of transanal extraction (<0.00001).
Conclusion: Transanal specimen extraction in left-sided laparoscopic colectomy does not increase overall risk of postoperative complications. In addition, the NOSE technique has some advantages in short-term results compared to procedures with transabdominal specimen extraction.

Microplastic (MP) pollution is an emerging environmental problem worldwide and has caused widespread concern both in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems due to their potential impacts on the human health, and health of aquatic organisms and the environment. Little is known about the exposure of top marine predators to MP contamination (debris 0.1μm - <5mm, also called MPs).

Introduction: Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an opportunistic pathogen associated with various nosocomial infections and is known for its intrinsic multidrug resistance. This study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the epidemiology and resistance patterns of S. maltophilia in China from 2014 to 2021.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate cracked teeth and vertical root fracture observable on micro-CT images of extracted roots of mandibular incisors, after fiber post removal.
Materials And Methods: Thirty mandibular incisors were selected with any degree of slight incisal wear inspected with the aid of a stereomicroscope under 12x magnification, in order to have a group of young adult specimens according to the criteria of Hugoson et al. A sample of twelve mandibular incisors were selected, aged between 20 and 30 years old, with similar dentine volume and thickness.

The multifunctional catalytic hemoglobin from the terebellid polychaete , also named dehaloperoxidase (DHP), utilizes the typical oxygen transport function in addition to four observed activities involved in substrate oxidation. The multifunctional ability of DHP is presently a rare observation, and there exists a limitation for how novel dehaloperoxidases can be identified from macrobenthic infauna. In order to discover more infaunal DHP-bearing candidates, we have devised a facilitated method for an accurate taxonomic identification that places visual and molecular taxonomic approaches in parallel.

This research delves deeper into previous works on femoral cross-sectional properties during ontogeny by focusing for the first time on the human femoral midneck. The ontogenetic pattern of cross-sectional properties at femoral midneck is established and compared with those at three different femoral locations: the proximal femur, the midshaft, and the distal femur. The study sample includes 99 femora (70 non-adults and 29 adults) belonging to archaeological specimens.
