Guidelines for Enhanced Recovery After Trauma and Intensive Care (ERATIC): Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) and International Association for Trauma Surgery and Intensive Care (IATSIC) Society Recommendations: Paper 2: Postoperative and Intensive Care Recommendations

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols reduce length of stay, complications, and costs for elective surgical procedures. It remains challenging to implement ERAS concepts in the acute trauma patient due to deranged physiological reserve from the penetrating or blunt trauma producing altered physiology.

Effects of competition and predation risk from a life history intraguild predator on individual specialisation

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Individual niche specialisation is widespread within animal populations and can have important ecological consequences. Predation and competition are known drivers of individual specialisation, but their combined effects are unstudied. This mesocosm experiment shows that competition and predation from a single antagonist can have variable effects on ...

Resident Memory T Cell in Metastatic Lymph Nodes Is Associated With Favorable Prognosis in Gastric Cancer Patients

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
The role of resident memory T cells (TRM) in the lymph nodes remains unclear. Thus, we examined the prognostic impact of TRM cell infiltration in lymph nodes among gastric cancer patients with lymph node metastasis. As a result, we revealed that the infiltration of TRM cells into lymph nodes is a significant prognostic factor both in resected and ...
