Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.This retrospective study identified low preoperative psoas muscle volume, measured by computed tomography, as an independent predictor of postoperative complications in patients undergoing emergency surgery for strangulated small bowel obstruction. Low psoas muscle volume, particularly in older adults, was associated with cardiopulmonary and systemic ...

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.This study investigates the prognostic utility of a novel volumetric indicator—psoas volume index (PVI)—for assessing sarcopenia in elderly rectal cancer patients. Sarcopenia classified by our proposed PVI cut‐off values was associated with poor nutritional and inflammatory status, and patients with low PVI showed significantly worse long‐term outcomes.

Postinvasive Bacterial Resistance Conferred by Open Stomata in Rice.
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2019 Stomata are leaf pores that regulate gas exchange and water transpiration in response to environmental cues. They also function in innate immunity by limiting pathogen entry through actively closing in so-called stomatal defense.

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.Perforated colorectal cancer (PCC) is considered to have a poor prognosis; however, it remains unclear whether this is attributable to perforation itself or to perforation‐related clinicopathological factors. In this study, we analyzed prognosis using propensity score matching with perforation‐related factors and demonstrated that perforation is an ...

The effect of deficit irrigation on water relations, growth, and fruit quality of "Braeburn" apples (Malus domestica Borkh.) growing in lysimeters : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science at Massey University [PDF]
, 1997 This project investigated the feasibility and practicality of using deficit irrigation (DI) at different times of the growing season on water relations, growth and fruit quality of 'Braeburn' apples grown in lysimeters. Five-year-old trees on MM.

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.Abdominoperineal resection (APR) after minimally invasive rectal cancer surgery was associated with significantly higher rates of erectile and early ejaculatory dysfunction compared with anal‐sparing surgery. Although ejaculatory function showed partial recovery over time, erectile dysfunction persisted up to 12 months postoperatively.
