Hirschsprung's disease surgically treated with Duhamel's technique in which no mechanical suture has been used, usually presents, as main complication, cronic constipation, due to fecalomas in the rectal pouch. In our experience (30 cases plus four patients sent to our hospital for reintervention), this complication is not present when mechanical suture is introduced to the Duhamel's Technique. This allows us to assure that perineal rectocoloplasty, with auto-suture material is a precise optional treatment, with excellent results and allows the chance of not going through laparotomy in those cases that require reintervention.

Botrytis cinerea is an important generalist fungal plant pathogen that causes great economic losses. Conventional detection methods to identify B. cinerea infections rely on visual assessments, which are error prone, subjective, labor intensive, hard to quantify, and unsuitable for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications.

Background: Patients with Fontan circulation are frail and experience multisystem dysfunction including impaired exercise capacity, low resting and exercise-augmented cardiac output, and progressive liver fibrosis. However, common underlying biochemical abnormalities or disease-specific biomarkers have not been well-described.
Objectives: We wish to investigate Fontan and their matched healthy subjects using a nontargeted, followed by targeted metabolomic analysis.
Long-term outcome of oesophageal atresia in adolescence (TransEAsome): a national French cohort study protocol.
BMJ Open

Univ. Lille, Inserm, CHU Lille, U1286 - INFINITE - Institute for Translational Research in Inflammation, F-59000, Lille.
Introduction: The project, funded by the Agence Nationale de la Recherche, aims to evaluate the long-term outcomes of patients with oesophageal atresia (OA) between 13 and 14 years old and establish multiomics profiles using data from the world's biggest OA registry.
Methods And Analysis: is a national multicentre population-based cohort study recruiting participants from all qualified French centres for OA surgery at birth. The primary objective is to assess the prevalence of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease in adolescence among patients with OA, with several secondary objectives including the identification of risk factors and multiomic profiles from oesophageal biopsies and blood samples collected between 13 and 14 years old, compared with a control group.
Prognostic Value of Cardiac MRI Late Gadolinium Enhancement Granularity in Participants with Ischemic Cardiomyopathy.
Radiology
January 2025
Université Paris-Cité, Department of Cardiology, University Hospital of Lariboisière, Assistance Publique des Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP), Paris, France.
Background Ischemic late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) assessed with cardiac MRI is a well-established prognosticator in ischemic cardiomyopathy. However, the prognostic value of additional LGE parameters, such as extent, transmurality, location, and associated midwall LGE, remains unclear. Purpose To assess the prognostic value of ischemic LGE features to predict all-cause mortality in ischemic cardiomyopathy.

Purpose: Mobilization within 24 h post-cardiac surgery (CS) supports improved patient health outcomes. Despite being safe and recommended, it is unknown how much mobility takes place post-CS in the intensive care unit (ICU). Behaviour mapping was used to describe patterns of patients' mobility in one CS ICU.
