New mathematical model for fluid-glucose-albumin transport in peritoneal dialysis [PDF]
A mathematical model for fluid transport in peritoneal dialysis is constructed. The model is based on a three-component nonlinear system of two-dimensional partial differential equations for fluid, glucose and albumin transport with the relevant boundary and initial conditions. Non-constant steady-state solutions of the model are studied.

Adriamycin-loaded albumin-heparin conjugate microspheres for intraperitoneal chemotherapy [PDF]
Adriamycin-loaded albumin-heparin conjugate microspheres (ADR-AHCMS) were evaluated as possible intraperitoneal (i.p.) delivery systems for site-specific cytotoxic action.

Mesothelioma in situ is a recently described precursor to invasive mesothelioma. Thus far, all cases in the literature have involved one pleural cavity or the peritoneal cavity. We describe a patient with biopsy-proven mesothelioma in situ involving both

We retrospectively compared intracorporeal and extracorporeal anastomosis in patients undergoing laparoscopic colectomy for colon cancer in 46 institutions by using propensity‐score matching. Intracorporeal anastomosis showed advantages over extracorporeal anastomosis in terms of blood loss, intraoperative vascular injury, bowel recovery, and length of

The effectiveness of intraperitoneal chemotherapy using paclitaxel (i.p.‐PTX) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients with peritoneal dissemination remains elusive. This study indicated that the i.p.‐PTX therapy may improve survival in selected patients with PDAC, in particular those with occult peritoneal dissemination.

Feline coronaviruses associated with feline infectious peritonitis have modifications to spike protein activation sites at two discrete positions [PDF]
Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is associated with mutations in the feline coronavirus (FCoV) genome that are thought to convert the subclinical feline enteric coronavirus (FECV) into the lethal feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV). A key feature of FIPV, not shared with FECV, is the productive infection of macrophages. Therefore mutations in

Alternative activation of macrophages by filarial nematodes is MyD88-independent [PDF]
Alternative macrophage activation is largely defined by IL-4Rα stimulation but the contribution of Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling to this phenotype is not currently known.

LiveAscaris lumbricoidesin the peritoneal cavity [PDF]
Infestation with Ascaris lumbricoides is a worldwide phenomenon with up to a quarter of the world population, mostly in the third-world countries, infected.1,2 A. lumbricoides resides mostly in the middle third of the jejunum, but perforations attributed to this parasite have been described mostly in the terminal ileum, cecum, Meckel’s diverticulum and

This multicenter, single‐blind, randomized, controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the multidimensional workload of the first operator during ileostomy closure using the SURG‐TLX between groups with and without the use of the spray‐type anti‐adhesion material during diverting ileostomy construction.

Adenomatoid tumors of the male and female genital tract are defined by TRAF7 mutations that drive aberrant NF-kB pathway activation. [PDF]
Adenomatoid tumors are the most common neoplasm of the epididymis, and histologically similar adenomatoid tumors also commonly arise in the uterus and fallopian tube.
