Predictors of conversion from thoracoscopic to open surgery in management of postpneumonic empyema [PDF]
BackgroundVideo-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has an important role in management of pleural empyema. The objective of this study was to assess the predictors for conversion from VATS to open thoracotomy in an assumed stage II postpneumonic ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Cancer progression is regulated by the dynamic matrix code of the tumor microenvironment, which influences cellular behavior and disease development. Importantly, matrix remodeling in three‐dimensional cancer models more accurately reflects in vivo conditions compared to conventional two‐dimensional systems.

Predictive factors for conversion to open surgery during laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Amaç. Laparaskopik kolesistektomi, semptomatik safra taşlarının elektif tedavisinde altın standarttır. Akut kolesistitte elektif vakalara göre açık cerrahiye geçiş oranı %15-25 daha fazladır. Bu çalışmada açık cerrahiye geçiş kararını etkileyebileceği düşünülen preopratif hasta özelliklerinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntemler.

Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated
