An age-of-infection model with both symptomatic and asymptomatic infections

Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2023
We formulate a general age-of-infection epidemic model with two pathways: the symptomatic infections and the asymptomatic infections. We then calculate the basic reproduction number $\mathcal{R}_0$ and establish the final size relation. It is shown that the ratio of accumulated counts of symptomatic patients and asymptomatic patients is determined by ...

Radical Resection of the Third Portion of the Duodenum for Secondary Aortoduodenal Fistula

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Secondary aortoduodenal fistula most commonly involves the third portion of the duodenum and requires definitive management of both vascular and gastrointestinal components. We demonstrate a step‐by‐step technique for radical duodenal resection and reconstruction performed in structured collaboration with cardiovascular surgeons.

Preserved dendritic cell HLA-DR expression and reduced regulatory T cell activation in asymptomatic Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax infection.

, 2015
Clinical illness with Plasmodium falciparum or Plasmodium vivax compromises the function of dendritic cells (DC) and expands regulatory T (Treg) cells. Individuals with asymptomatic parasitemia have clinical immunity, restricting parasite expansion and ...

Laparoscopic Versus Open Surgery for Diverticular Disease: A Structured Review Across Clinical Settings and Operative Strategies

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Laparoscopic surgery is increasingly used to treat colonic diverticulitis; however, its role in emergency, perforated, high‐risk, and procedure‐specific settings remains uncertain. This structured narrative review evaluated and synthesized comparative evidence by clinical setting, operative strategy, and patient risk profile to provide a ...

Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth Following Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery: Current Evidence and Future Perspectives

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) has recently gained increasing attention as a potential cause of postoperative gastrointestinal symptoms following gastrointestinal cancer surgery. Surgical procedures can disrupt normal gastrointestinal physiology through anatomical reconstruction, impaired motility, reduced gastric acid secretion,

Barbed Sutures Are Associated With a Lower Incidence of Incisional Hernia Compared With Continuous Non‐Barbed Monofilament Sutures After Minimally Invasive Gastroenterological Surgery

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Incisional hernia remains a common complication after minimally invasive gastroenterological surgery despite small extraction incisions. In this propensity score‐weighted analysis, barbed sutures significantly reduced the incidence of incisional hernia compared with conventional slowly absorbable monofilament sutures without increasing postoperative ...
