Independent Risk Factors for Postoperative Intestinal Obstruction and Clinical Outcomes in Simultaneous Pancreas‐Kidney Transplantation Recipients

Organ Medicine, EarlyView.
Intestinal obstruction (IO) is an important but underexplored complication following simultaneous pancreas‐kidney transplantation (SPKT) and is associated with considerable morbidity and both clinical and economic burdens. In this single‐center cohort study, perioperative parameters, including demographic characteristics, surgical variables, and ...

A catastrophic confluence: Concurrent subarachnoid haemorrhage and acute mesenteric ischaemia

Surgical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Acute mesenteric ischaemia (AMI) and subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) are life‐threatening emergencies with diametrically opposed treatment requirements regarding anticoagulation. This report describes a rare, complex case where both conditions occurred simultaneously, creating a significant therapeutic dilemma. Case presentation A 64‐

Uremic Paralytic Ileus in a 70 Years Old Female: A Diagnostic Dilemma

Clinical Case Reports
Uremia has been associated with slowed intestinal motility, resulting in loss of peristalsis and the development of paralytic ileus. We present a case of uremia‐induced paralytic ileus in a 70‐year‐old woman. The patient was admitted with a 7‐day history

Comparison of Three Sympatric Desert Lizards: Digestive Tract Structure, Digestive Enzyme Activities, Gut Microbiota, and Metabolites

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Peri‐oesophageal metastases of pulmonary adenocarcinoma presenting as dysphagia in a dog

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Primary pulmonary neoplasia represents approximately one percent of canine cancers. Although it is recognised that many of these cases may not display classic respiratory signs, dysphagia is not an expected presentation. This report describes a twelve‐year‐old Border Collie that presented with a history of progressive dysphagia and weight loss over ...
