Data‐Driven Feedback Identifies Focused Ultrasound Exposure Regimens for Improved Nanotheranostic Targeting of the Brain

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Machine learning models predict in real time the onset of harmful microbubble collapse during microbubble‐enhanced focused ultrasound (MB‐FUS) and enable dynamic adjustment of sonication to prevent cavitation‐induced damage. This predictive control expands the safe operating window for bloodbrain barrier opening, enhancing nanoparticle delivery and ...

Effectiveness of Pre‐Transplant Dual GLP‐1 Receptor Agonist and SGLT2 Inhibitor Therapy on All‐Cause Mortality in Organ Transplantation Candidates with Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes: a Target‐Trial Emulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This target trial emulation in solid organ transplant candidates with obesity and type 2 diabetes evaluates whether pre‐transplant dual therapy with GLP‐1 receptor agonists plus SGLT2 inhibitors is associated with post‐transplant mortality and kidney graft outcomes compared with monotherapy or usual care, using multinational electronic health records ...

Multimodal Wearable Biosensing Meets Multidomain AI: A Pathway to Decentralized Healthcare

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multimodal biosensing meets multidomain AI. Wearable biosensors capture complementary biochemical and physiological signals, while cross‐device, population‐aware learning aligns noisy, heterogeneous streams. This Review distills key sensing modalities, fusion and calibration strategies, and privacy‐preserving deployment pathways that transform ...

The Effectiveness of Anti‐Adhesion Barriers on Prevention of Postoperative Adhesive Bowel Obstruction: Disease‐Free Survival Analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We performed a survival analysis of abdominal gastroenterological cancer surgery cases with and without anti‐adhesive barriers, with the development of adhesive bowel obstruction as the outcome. The incidence of adhesive bowel obstruction was significantly lower in patients undergoing open or laparoscopic colorectal surgery in the anti‐adhesive ...

Prognostic Utility of the Preoperative Cachexia Index in Patients Undergoing Emergency Laparotomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The preoperative cachexia index, incorporating muscle mass, nutritional status, and inflammation, predicts in‐hospital and one‐year mortality in patients undergoing emergency laparotomy. This simple index may aid in risk stratification and perioperative decision‐making in high‐risk surgical patients. ABSTRACT Aim Emergency laparotomy is associated with

Validation of the Safe Application of Tokyo Guideline 2018 (TG18) Severity Grading and Treatment Algorithm in Super‐Elderly Patients Aged 85 and Over With Acute Cholecystitis: A Study in the Japanese Tertiary Care Hospital

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background With population aging and extended healthy life expectancy, the management of acute cholecystitis (AC) in patients aged ≥ 85 years has evolved. However, the Tokyo Guidelines 2018 (TG18) for AC provide no specific risk assessment criteria for this population.

Elevated Risk of Complications in Patients Receiving Dual Antithrombotic Therapy Undergoing Hepatectomy: A Single‐Center Audit of 749 Cases

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This single‐center retrospective study evaluated perioperative outcomes after hepatectomy in 749 patients, including 140 receiving ATT, using propensity score matching to compare ATT and non‐ATT cohorts. Under standardized perioperative management, ATT did not increase major bleeding, transfusion, or severe morbidity overall; however, within the ATT ...
