Enhancing Innate and Adaptive Immune Systems by Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) and Its Antitumor Immunity [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is a near room temperature ionized gas, generated under non-equilibrium discharge conditions. Here we show that a short exposure of rat peritoneal exudate macrophages and T-cells to CAP in vitro, triggered an inflammatory phenotype leading to better antigen-presenting and effector cell function respectively.

Updated risk prediction model for pancreaticoduodenectomy using data from the National Clinical Database in Japan

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 9, Issue 3, Page 559-568, May 2025.
The calibration plots of the updated risk models for the endpoints were analyzed in each cohort. The predicted probability of each endpoint matched the observed probability in the development and validation cohorts. Abstract Aim Risk prediction models for mortality, severe postoperative complications, and postoperative pancreatic fistula in patients ...

Effects of an increase in emergency cases with difficulties in transport to hospital during the COVID‐19 pandemic on postoperative short‐term outcomes of colorectal perforation: A study based on the National Clinical Database

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 9, Issue 3, Page 505-517, May 2025.
In 2022, emergency cases with difficulties in transport markedly increased during the COVID‐19 pandemic, but had little effect on short‐term outcomes of colorectal perforation. These data suggest that the emergency system for patients with colorectal perforation was largely maintained during the pandemic in Japan, with no evidence indicating a serious ...

Generalizability analyses with a partially nested trial design: the Necrotizing Enterocolitis Surgery Trial [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
We discuss generalizability analyses under a partially nested trial design, where part of the trial is nested within a cohort of trial-eligible individuals, while the rest of the trial is not nested. This design arises, for example, when only some centers participating in a trial are able to collect data on non-randomized individuals, or when data on ...

Diagnosis of necrotic and non‐necrotic small bowel strangulation: The importance of intestinal congestion

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 9, Issue 3, Page 538-545, May 2025.
CT of 141 patients with small bowel strangulation (SBS) was reviewed. Mesenteric edema and abnormal bowel wall thickening are prevalent in both non‐necrotic and necrotic SBS, indicating the primary pathology of SBS. While bowel hypo‐enhancement was detected in 76% of patients with necrotic SBS, it appeared in only 51% of those with non‐necrotic SBS ...
