To Evaluate Whether Pretreatment CA19‐9 and DUPAN‐2 Levels Can Serve as Predictive Markers to Guide the Choice Between NAT and Upfront Surgery in Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
NAT‐GS was significantly more effective only in patients with one tumor marker above the reference range, comparing those who achieved 12‐month MRFS with those who did not. ABSTRACT Aim Pancreatic cancer (PC) remains one of the most lethal malignancies, with early recurrence severely affecting prognosis even after curative resection.

A Robotic Urinary Bladder Enabling Volume Monitoring and Assisted Micturition

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An implantable robotic bladder is presented that can store urine in an origami‐designed enclosure. An inductance sensing principle can monitor and transfer the urine volume in real‐time. It can actively expand based on the amount of urine collected from kidneys and apply on‐demand mechanical compression to assist urination.

Ultra‐Efficient Kidney Stone Fragment Removal via Spinner‐Induced Synergistic Circulation and Spiral Flow

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Leveraging spinning‐induced localized suction, the spinner device enables ultra‐efficient removal of kidney stone fragments, capturing a larger quantity of fragments from distances exceeding 20 mm. The spinner significantly improves the efficiency and effectiveness of stone fragment removal by reducing operative time, increasing stone‐free rates, and ...

Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Renal Pelvis Associated with Kidney Stones: Radiologic Imaging Features with Gross and Histopathological Correlation

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Imaging Science, 2013
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the renal pelvis is a rare neoplasm and is usually associated with long standing renal stone disease. This tumor is aggressive in nature and usually has a poor prognosis.

Challenges of modeling pristane‐induced lupus in non‐human primates

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in cynomolgus monkeys was modeled by two intraperitoneal injections of pristane at a dose of 3.5 mL/kg, administered at weeks 1 and 23. Serum samples from all monkeys that received pristane tested positive for antinuclear antibodies.

Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Renal Pelvis: Atypical Presentation of a Rare Malignancy

open access: yesUrology Case Reports, 2017
Primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the renal pelvis is exceedingly rare and is associated with advanced stage at diagnosis and a poor prognosis. Diagnosis is often difficult due to vague presenting symptoms and nonspecific radiologic findings.

A contribution to the anatomy of two rare cetacean species: The hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The anatomical description of the hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica) remains largely unexplored, due to limited specimen availability and preservation challenges. This study employed digital imaging techniques, conventional histology, and computed tomography to provide visualization of
