Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.This study aimed to determine the value of the National Clinical Database (NCD) risk calculator in predicting surgical outcomes and long‐term prognosis in patients undergoing resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We retrospectively analyzed data from 210 patients with HCC who underwent initial hepatic resection, assessing the relationship ...

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.Postoperative infectious complications (PICs) have been associated with poor long‐term outcomes after colorectal cancer surgery, but evidence in the modern minimally invasive era remains limited. In this multicenter cohort of 5377 patients undergoing curative resection, PICs were independently associated with worse overall survival and relapse‐free ...

Pathogenesis of severe pneumonia [PDF]
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2017 Pneumonia is a common disease that becomes severe in a subset of patients, dependent on host biology including mechanisms of immune resistance and tissue resilience. This review emphasizes discoveries in pneumonia biology from 2016, highlighting questions and directions that are especially pressing or newly emerging.Novel cell-cell interactions ...

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.This study demonstrates that a preoperative FIB‐4 index ≥ 5.0 independently predicts severe complications and endogenous organ failure (EOF) following hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma. By capturing structural liver fragility and systemic vulnerability, the FIB‐4 index enhances surgical risk stratification beyond traditional functional markers ...

Structural and Functional Siderophore Remodeling by Enzymatic Delipidation
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.A surprising functional switch in bacterial siderophores was discovered through genome mining and the analysis of environmental and pathogenic Pandoraea species. Pandorachelin B, a lipocyclopeptide that promotes swarming motility, is cleaved by a specialized acylase, yielding a ring‐contracted, homodetic cyclopeptide, pandorachelin A, which exhibits ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT U2 small nuclear RNA auxiliary factor 2 (U2AF2) is an essential pre‐mRNA splicing factor involved in the early stages of pre‐mRNA splicing. To date, multiple individuals have been reported with predominantly heterozygous missense variants presenting intellectual disability, speech and motor delays, seizures, hypotonia, and thin or hypoplastic ...
