Multi‐Omics and ‐Organ Insights into Energy Metabolic Adaptations in Early Sepsis Onset
This study shows that patients at risk of sepsis have a distinct metabolite and lipid signature, including serine and aminoadipic acid, in their serum before clinical diagnosis. A mouse model of sepsis with a compatible serum signature reveals underlying metabolic changes, including mitochondrial adaptation, altered serine‐dependent purine metabolism ...

RECOVER: Designing a Large Language Model-based Remote Patient Monitoring System for Postoperative Gastrointestinal Cancer Care [PDF]
Cancer surgery is a key treatment for gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, a group of cancers that account for more than 35% of cancer-related deaths worldwide, but postoperative complications are unpredictable and can be life-threatening. In this paper, we investigate how recent advancements in large language models (LLMs) can benefit remote patient ...

The MOF material UIO‐66‐NH2 is functionalized with DBCO groups on its surface, encapsulating NO‐prednisolone and conjugating it with azide‐modified IL‐10. Finally, the complex is extruded with MM to form biomimetic functional nanoparticles. Upon intra‐articular injection, MI@UN, enveloped by the MM, specifically targets synovial macrophages, is ...

Transparent AI: Developing an Explainable Interface for Predicting Postoperative Complications [PDF]
Given the sheer volume of surgical procedures and the significant rate of postoperative fatalities, assessing and managing surgical complications has become a critical public health concern. Existing artificial intelligence (AI) tools for risk surveillance and diagnosis often lack adequate interpretability, fairness, and reproducibility.

ABSTRACT Objective The incidence of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is rising among elderly patients. This study aims to investigate the clinical features of IPMN in elderly patients (≥ 60 years), analyze risk factors for high‐grade dysplasia (HGD) and invasive cancer (IC), and provide treatment recommendations for elderly patients with ...

This retrospective study investigated risk factors for surgical site infections (SSIs) in right‐sided colon cancer surgeries using intracorporeal anastomosis (IA). The results demonstrated that preoperative oral antibiotics (OA) significantly reduced SSI rates, with OA identified as an independent protective factor, suggesting its beneficial role in ...
