External Validation of an Automated Surgical Step Recognition Model for Robotic Distal Gastrectomy (RDG) Using a Multicenter Dataset

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Our present study reveals that surgical step recognition performs moderately well when trained on video data from a single institution and applied to an external institution's data. Nevertheless, our model substantially improves its prediction capabilities when trained on the same amount of data from multiple institutions.

CLCN4‐Related Neurodevelopmental Condition: Characterization of Speech and Language Abilities

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Speech and language difficulties are a core feature of the CLCN4‐related neurodevelopmental condition, but these have not been well described. Here we systematically phenotype speech and language in 13 participants (10 female, aged 1 year 10 months–41 years 10 months) with pathogenic CLCN4 variants (12 missense de novo, 1 premature stop codon ...

Establishment and evaluation of a novel rat model of the fourth ventricle hemorrhage

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel rat model of fourth ventricle hemorrhage was established via autologous blood injection through the foramen of Magendie. Anesthetized rats were positioned in a stereotaxic apparatus with their heads tilted downward at an angle of approximately 20° relative to the vertical axis.
