Higher 3-year recurrence-free survival rate in patients with complete pathological remission following neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus immunotherapy for esophageal cancer: a two-center, propensity score matching study.

Background: Neoadjuvant therapy is preferentially recommended for resectable locally advanced esophageal malignancies, with patients who achieve pathological complete response (PCR) anticipated to have longer survival rates. The aim of this study was to compare 3-year follow-up data for patients with esophageal malignancy who achieved PCR through neoadjuvant chemotherapy (nCRT) and to compare the findings with those of neoadjuvant immunotherapy plus chemotherapy (nICT).
Methods: This retrospective study included 85 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent surgical resection following nCRT (n=47) or nICT (n=38) between January 1, 2016 and January 1, 2020 at Fujian Medical University Union Hospital and Gaozhou People's Hospital.
Introduction: Acute esophageal necrosis (AEN) is a rare and lethal condition that may progress to sepsis and perforations. Most related literature comes from case reports; however, a few small reviews have been published. We conducted a large systematic review of AEN using PubMed, MEDLINE, and Embase to organize data into one consolidated manuscript, find potential prognosticators of illness, and determine possible treatment guidelines for AEN.

Background: Venous congestion due to superficial venous system dominance (SVD) in deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap surgery occurs in approximately 2% of cases, with attendant sequelae and increased cost to healthcare systems. This study aimed to describe the predictive factors for SVD in DIEP flap breast reconstruction based on preoperative computed tomography angiography (CTA) findings.
Methods: All women who required takebacks for additional venous anastomosis to the cephalic vein because of SVD after DIEP flap breast reconstruction between 2015 and 2022 were included.
Interpret probability density functions and maximum entropy model for zinc removal in PRDC column by analyzing droplet size distribution.

The research discussed in this paper focused on experimental data using a perforated rotating disc column to determine the factors that impact the distribution of drop sizes. A standard test system was utilized, consisting of zinc ions and D2EHPA extractant. When the rotor speed is increased, a majority of droplets display a smaller range of diameters, primarily because of decreased coalescence and increased breakup effects.

Article Synopsis
- The study assessed the integrity of non-sterile, powder-free latex gloves used by dental students across various specialties, finding a high rate of perforations (40.7%).
- The gloves were analyzed using a modified water leak test after use in procedures like operative dentistry and oral surgery, revealing significant perforations mainly at the right thumb and index finger.
- No statistical differences were found based on the type of dental procedure or duration of glove use, but there was a notable correlation between expected and actual defects in glove integrity.
