Long‐Term Nutritional Benefits of Laparoscopic Pancreatoduodenectomy Over Open Surgery

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Minimally invasive laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) significantly improves long‐term nutritional outcomes compared to open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD). LPD patients demonstrated better preservation of muscle mass index (PMI) and a lower incidence of postoperative fatty liver.

Risk Evaluation of the NCD Risk Calculator for Open Pancreaticoduodenectomy in Elderly Patients: A Validation Study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study investigated the utility of the Japanese NCD risk calculator for preoperative assessment in elderly patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), using a validation study design. In the training cohort, two preoperative factors—the predicted incidence of postoperative ADL decline ≥ 44.8% and Clavien–Dindo grade IV or higher complications

Children With 22.Q.11.2 Deletion Syndrome: Sleep‐Disordered Breathing and Management

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) are predisposed to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) due to an abnormal craniofacial anatomy with pharyngeal hypotonia, retrognathia, micrognathia, and glossoptosis. The aim of the study was to describe the prevalence and management of OSA in a cohort of children with 22q11DS.

A Case of Prader‐Willi Syndrome With a Deletion Including MAGEL2, NDN, and MKRN3, but Excluding SNRPN and SNORD116

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prader‐Willi syndrome (PWS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder typically caused by large deletions or imprinting defects on chromosome 15q11.2, encompassing multiple genes. While the contribution of individual genes to the PWS phenotype remains unclear, previous studies suggested that isolated deletions of MAGEL2, NDN, and MKRN3, excluding the ...
