Reoperation Versus Self‐Reported Recurrence After Ventral Hernia Repair: A Nationwide Survey‐ and Register‐Based Study

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Reoperation is often used as an outcome measure after ventral hernia repair but may underestimate the true recurrence rate, potentially leading to biased interpretation of studies using reoperation for recurrence as an outcome. This study aimed to determine the proportion of patients with recurrence after ventral hernia repair who undergo reoperation ...

Cortisol concentrations in hair are biomarkers of health status and seasonal change, but not urbanisation, in wolves

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wolves have reclaimed much of their former range in Europe, including areas with a high human footprint, yet the physiological impacts of human‐associated stressors remain poorly understood. We first examined methodological factors affecting hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) in wolves by using a ‘shave/re‐shave' design to assess hair growth rate and ...

Operative Efficiency and Short‐Term Outcomes of Robotic Transabdominal Preperitoneal Inguinal Hernia Repair: A Prospective Single‐Surgeon Cohort Study

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Robotic transabdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair (R‐TAPP IHR) is a promising minimally invasive tool for inguinal hernias. This study aimed to evaluate short‐term postoperative outcomes following R‐TAPP IHR from a high‐volume robotic surgeon who has passed the initial robotic learning curve.
