Functional Sex Reversal in Adult Gonochoristic Teleosts is Mediated by Ovarian Germline Stem Cell Plasticity and Somatic Cell Transdifferentiation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Oocytes play crucial roles in maintaining ovarian fate in adult gonochoristic fish. Targeted oocyte ablation with aromatase inhibition triggers the activation of surviving germline stem cells and the transdifferentiation of somatic cells from granoulosa/theca to Sertoli/Leydig lineages, inducing a complete and functional female‐to‐male sex reversal ...

Intra-abdominal Hypertension in Critically Ill Patients in The Intensive Care Unit: Measurement & Early Management

SVU - International Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: intra-abdominal pressure is defined as the pressure inside abdominal cavity which is a closed space. this makes the intra-abdominal pressure changes (even the minimal changes) affect the viscera. the influence of the increased intra-abdominal

Intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome in patients admitted to the ICU

Annals of Intensive Care, 2020
Background Intra-abdominal hypertension is frequently present in critically ill patients and is an independent predictor for mortality. Risk factors for intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome have been widely investigated ...

Beneficial Body Mass Index for Age‐Related Kidney Function in Males and Females

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
The impact of BMI on age‐related kidney function decline is highly sex‐ and age‐dependent. Normal BMI (18.5–25 kg/m2) is associated with better age‐related kidney function in all‐aged males and females older than 45 years. ABSTRACT Objectives Kidney function declines with aging, leading to a high prevalence of age‐related disease.

Analyzing intra-abdominal pressures and outcomes in patients undergoing emergency laparotomy

Journal of Emergencies, Trauma and Shock, 2010
Background : Studies have documented the impact of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) on virtually every organ. However, it still remains strangely underdiagnosed. The aims of the study were to assess, in patients undergoing emergency laparotomy, whether

Mechanical Intestinal Obstruction in a Porcine Model: Effects of Intra-Abdominal Hypertension. A Preliminary Study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
INTRODUCTION:Mechanical intestinal obstruction is a disorder associated with intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome. As the large intestine intraluminal and intra-abdominal pressures are increased, so the patient's risk for ...

Preoperative FIB‐4 Index as a Potential Factor Associated With Severe Postoperative Complications and Endogenous Organ Failure After Hepatectomy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that a preoperative FIB‐4 index ≥ 5.0 independently predicts severe complications and endogenous organ failure (EOF) following hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma. By capturing structural liver fragility and systemic vulnerability, the FIB‐4 index enhances surgical risk stratification beyond traditional functional markers ...

Correlation between intra-abdominal pressure and pulmonary volumes after superior and inferior abdominal surgery

Clinics, 2014
OBJECTIVE:Patients undergoing abdominal surgery are at risk for pulmonary complications. The principal cause of postoperative pulmonary complications is a significant reduction in pulmonary volumes (FEV1 and FVC) to approximately 65-70% of the predicted ...

Current Status and Future Perspectives of Robotic Surgery for Esophagogastric Cancer in Asia

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Robotic‐assisted surgery (RAS) has moved from an experimental adjunct to an increasingly established component of gastrointestinal (GI) oncological practice in parts of Asia, a region that carries a disproportionately high burden of gastric and esophageal cancer. Asian surgeons have been among the earliest and most prolific contributors to the

Age‐associated immune dysregulation links to disease severity in macrolide‐resistant Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia: Insights from a comparative juvenile–adult mouse model

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Macrolide‐resistant Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MRMP) infected both juvenile and adult mice, with results compared to normal juvenile mice. The findings revealed comparable bacterial loads between juvenile and adult mice, yet juvenile mice exhibited more severe lung damage and elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines.
