Objectives: To evaluate the feasibility and outcomes of gasless single-port access (SPA) laparoscopy in overweight patients undergoing adnexal surgery.
Material And Methods: A retrospective review was conducted on the medical records of 118 patients who underwent gasless SPA laparoscopic adnexal surgery using J-shaped or triangular-shaped retractors between May 2017 and June 2022. Patients were categorized into overweight (BMI ≥ 23) and standard-weight (BMI < 23) groups. Surgical characteristics and outcomes were compared between the two groups.
Results: Out of 118 patients, 41 were in the overweight group, and 77 were in the standard-weight group. Significant differences were observed in age (p = 0.001), the number of previous abdominal surgeries (p = 0.001), and the number of subjects who had given birth (p = 0.004), all higher in the overweight group. There were no significant differences between the groups in setup time from umbilical skin incision to abdominal wall retraction, use of additional TROCARS: operation time, estimated blood loss, or length of postoperative hospital stay. No serious intraoperative complications, such as urologic, bowel, and vessel injuries were noted in either group. Tumor diameter (p < 0.001), bilaterality (p < 0.001), presence of adhesion (p = 0.026), and setup diameter of the retractor (p = 0.001) significantly correlated with operation time in multivariate analysis (Adjusted R² = 0.645).
Conclusions: Gasless SPA laparoscopic adnexal surgery in overweight patients is a feasible and effective alternative to conventional SPA laparoscopy, mitigating the potential negative effects of carbon dioxide gas.

Recent research has revealed a close association between obesity and various metabolic disorders, including renal metabolic diseases, but the mechanism is still unknown. This study explored the role of p16INK4a in obesity-related kidney fibrosis and evaluated its potential as a therapeutic target. Using wild-type (WT) mice and p16 KO mice, we fed both groups a high-fat diet (HFD) for 6 months.

Purpose: Due to the lack of clear screening guidelines for different populations, identify strategies for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in the outpatient population are unclear, a large number of potential OSA outpatients have not been identified in time. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the applicability and accuracy of artificial intelligence sleep screening in outpatients and to provide a reference for OSA screening in different populations.
Methods: A type IV wearable artificial intelligence sleep monitoring (AISM) device was used to screen adults in the sleep clinic of the Sleep Medical Center for OSA screening, and the general demographic data of the patients were collected.

Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is the most prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications. Identifying the anatomical sites of airway obstruction is crucial for optimizing treatment, particularly in patients requiring surgical intervention. In recent years, drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) has emerged as a valuable diagnostic tool for evaluating upper airway obstruction in OSAS patients.

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between postprandial glycemic levels based on flashmonitoring and the production of intestinal hydrogen (H) and methane (CH) gases based on the measurement of the amount of these gases in exhaled air. : We studied 14 subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and 14 individuals without diabetes (control) with two food load tests, including two types of dietary fiber (inulin and guar gum), with the simultaneous determination of gases in exhaled air and the assessment of glucose levels. : All subjects in the control group had a significant increase in exhaled H.

Obesity is a risk factor for thrombosis-related diseases and a condition that leads to vitamin D deficiency. Furthermore, orthopedic conditions are also at risk for diseases associated with coagulation and endothelial function. This study aimed to assess whether vitamin D supplementation in patients with acute (AOCs) and chronic orthopedic conditions (COCs) and coexisting obesity could affect coagulation and endothelial function.
