ABSTRACT Background The choice of anastomotic technique in minimally invasive oesophagectomy (MIO) may influence postoperative morbidity and long‐term outcomes. The primary aim of our study is to determine whether circular (CS) or linear‐stapled (LS) anastomosis is associated with anastomotic complications following MIO.

Roux‐en‐Y Reconstruction After Esophagectomy for Postoperative Functional Complaints: A Case Series
Functional complaints affect half of esophagectomy patients, with no standard treatment. In nine patients, Roux‐en‐Y reconstruction for obstruction, redundant conduit, and weight loss was safely performed, with one major complication and no Grade 4 out of five events. Complete symptom resolution reached 67% at 3 months and 89% at 1 year.

Pathophysiology of Delayed Gastric Conduit Emptying After Oesophagectomy: A Multicentre Cohort Study
In this multicentre study of 272 patients, early and late delayed gastric conduit emptying after oesophagectomy emerged as distinct phenotypes. Early DGCE was predicted by open surgery, whereas late DGCE was predicted by GOJ tumour location and postoperative complications.

Targeting KRAS for cancer therapy
In recent years, therapeutics targeted against KRAS proto‐oncogene GTPase (KRAS)‐mutant cancers have seen significant progress. Herein we outline the biology and epidemiology of KRAS alterations at the lineage and allele levels, reviewing the clinical evidence for KRASG12C inhibition from the discovery of the recessive switch pocket to sotorasib ...

Cholinergic inputs to motoneurons in the spinal cord augment focal muscle spasticity in rodents
Background and Purpose Cholinergic premotor inputs to motoneurons support high levels of motor output when required. However, the possible role of these inputs in pathologically elevated muscle tone has not been characterised. To address this, we examined the modulatory effect of spinal acetylcholine (ACh) on experimental spastic paralysis ...
