ABSTRACT Background Upper gastrointestinal tract anastomotic leaks are associated with increased morbidity and mortality, especially in the 30‐day post‐operative period. Techniques to reduce tension at the anastomotic site have been postulated to reduce leak rates.

Direct in‐scope suction (DISS) ureteroscopy: techniques, outcomes and future directions
Objective To provide an overview of direct in‐scope suction (DISS) ureteroscopy, an emerging technology that integrates suction directly into the ureteroscope with the aim of enhancing stone clearance, improving visualisation, and reducing intrarenal pressure during ureteroscopic stone surgery.

Malignant craniopharyngiomas: Institutional experience and literature review
We report the second case of malignant craniopharyngioma with BAP1 and TP53 mutations. A literature review identified 44 cases of malignant craniopharyngiomas with a median overall survival of 6 months. Eighteen (41%) occurred in patients without any history of radiation, suggesting that mechanisms other than radiation have contributed to their ...

Expanding the Genotype and Phenotype Diversity in a Chinese Cohort With TRPV4‐Related Dysplasia
Exploring the genotype and phenotype diversity in a Chinese cohort with TRPV4‐related dysplasia. ABSTRACT Dominant mutations in the calcium permeable ion channel TRPV4 (transient receptor potential vanilloid 4) typically result in skeletal dysplasia or peripheral neuromuscular disease.

Encoding Occupancy in Memory Location for Efficient and Compact High‐Resolution Voxel Structures
We encode information about geometric structure into the pointers of a sparse voxel directed acyclic graph (SVDAG). Each pointer carries information about the structure of the node it points to. Our encoding improves ray tracing performance and reduces model size in memory.

LPC18:0 secreted by exogenous neural stem cells potentiates neurogenesis via the GPR55/AKT/GSK3β signalling axis, which ultimately promotes spinal cord injury recovery. ABSTRACT Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition with limited therapeutic options. Although neural stem cell (NSC) transplantation shows regenerative potential, its efficacy
