Survival benefit of adjuvant therapy completion with early initiation for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Adjuvant completion with early initiation may contribute to the improved survival of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Abstract Aim To evaluate the prognostic effect of initiation timing and completion of adjuvant therapy in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

Prevalence of congenital heart defects in Europe, 2008–2015: A registry‐based study

open access: yesBirth Defects Research, Volume 114, Issue 20, Page 1404-1416, December 1, 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The total prevalence of congenital heart defects (CHDs) varies by populations and over time. Studies that examine trends in the prevalence of CHD in different regions may shed light on our understanding of the occurrence of CHD and the impact of different risk factors.

Quantitative evaluation of pulmonary hypertension using 4D flow MRI: A retrospective study

open access: yesHeliyon
Background: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a severe vascular disorder that may affect 50 % of patients with heart failure. Currently, right-sided heart catheterization is required to definitively diagnose PH. However, this method is invasive and thus may

Value of multiplanar reconstruction in multi-slice computed tomography for the detection of foreign body in the pulmonary artery: a case report

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research
Multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) is the primary method for the detection and visualization of foreign bodies in the pulmonary artery because it provides high sensitivity and accuracy. It is very difficult to diagnose a patient with a non-iatrogenic

Abnormal Haemodynamic Flow Patterns in Bicuspid Pulmonary Valve Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Abnormal flow patterns in the aortas of those with bicuspid aortic valves (BAVs) are increasingly recognized as important in the pathogenesis of aortic dilatation but pulmonary flow patterns in bicuspid pulmonary valves have not been studied.

Simulation of unsteady blood flows in a patient-specific compliant pulmonary artery with a highly parallel monolithically coupled fluid-structure interaction algorithm [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is increasingly used to study blood flows in patient-specific arteries for understanding certain cardiovascular diseases. The techniques work quite well for relatively simple problems, but need improvements when the problems become harder in the case when (1) the geometry becomes complex (from a few branches to a full

Short‐term outcomes of intracorporeal anastomosis in laparoscopic colectomy for colon cancer: A nationwide, multi‐institutional cohort study in Japan (ICAN study)

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
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
