Short‐Term Outcomes of Robot‐Assisted Versus Laparoscopic Colectomy for Colon Cancer: A Propensity Score‐Matched Analysis

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study compared short‐term outcomes of robot‐assisted versus laparoscopic colectomy for colon cancer using 1:1 propensity score matching. Among 218 matched pairs, robot‐assisted colectomy was associated with reduced blood loss, fewer conversions to open surgery, lower overall complication rates, and shorter hospital stays, despite longer operative ...

Canine brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome as a model for studying the effects of obstructive sleep apnea during pregnancy

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We observed a negative effect of brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) in a staggered manner based on the severity of the condition on respiratory and cardiac patterns, glycemia, acid–base balance, fetal growth, and uterine artery hemodynamics, thus requiring adaptations within the fetal–placental unit. Severely affected bitches had uterine

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...
