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

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
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 ...

PAF‐induced inflammatory and immuno‐allergic ophthalmic diseases and their mitigation with PAF receptor antagonists: Cell and nuclear effects

open access: yesBioFactors, Volume 48, Issue 6, Page 1226-1249, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Ocular allergies are becoming more prevalent as more airborne pollutants, irritants and microbes pervade our environment. Inflammatory and allergic mediators released by dendritic and mast cells within the conjunctiva cause allergic conjunctivitis (AC), a prevalent ocular surface disorder that affects >40% of the world's human population on a ...

SepsisCalc: Integrating Clinical Calculators into Early Sepsis Prediction via Dynamic Temporal Graph Construction [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Sepsis is an organ dysfunction caused by a deregulated immune response to an infection. Early sepsis prediction and identification allow for timely intervention, leading to improved clinical outcomes. Clinical calculators (e.g., the six-organ dysfunction assessment of SOFA) play a vital role in sepsis identification within clinicians' workflow ...

Analysis of surgical volume and short‐term outcomes for upper gastrointestinal cancer post‐COVID‐19: Evidence from a nationwide Japanese database

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study examined changes in surgical volume and short‐term outcomes for upper gastrointestinal cancer in the post‐COVID‐19 period using a nationwide Japanese database. We found that surgical treatments for gastrectomy and esophagectomy continued to be performed safely even after the COVID‐19 pandemic.

Neuroimaging for differential diagnosis of transient neurological attacks

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Rapid yet comprehensive neuroimaging protocols are required for patients with suspected acute stroke. However, stroke mimics can account for approximately one in five clinically diagnosed acute ischemic strokes and the rate of thrombolyzed mimics can be as high as 17%.

A new model for standardising and treating thermal injury in the rat

open access: yesMethodsX, 2019
Thermal burn injury methodologies are inconsistently described within the current literature. To permit the advancement of new treatments there is an urgent need for the development and standardisation of an acute rat model.
