Prognostic Value of Psoas Major Muscle Volume in Assessing Sarcopenia in Elderly Patients With Rectal Cancer

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.

Independent Prognostic Significance of Perforation in Colorectal Cancer: Insights From a Propensity Score‐Matched Cohort Study

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 ...

Impact of Abdominoperineal Resection on Postoperative Male Sexual Function After Minimally Invasive Rectal Cancer Surgery: A Subgroup Analysis From the LANDMARC Study

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.

Structure and Function of Blueberry Fruit and Flowers: Stomata, Transpiration and Photoassimilation

Horticulturae
Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) stands out among fruit in terms of three open physiological questions about its climacteric character, CO2 uptake, and the absence or presence of stomata on its floral organs.

The effect of different nursery conditions on some of the leaf and stomata characteristics in Chestnuts (Castanea sativa Mill.)

Journal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2014
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of different nursery conditions on some leaf dimensions and stomatal characteristics in the chestnut. The study was carried out in the open field and under shaded (50%) and unshaded greenhouse conditions.

Risks and Benefits of Feeding Enterostomy Creation During Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy: A Propensity‐Weighted Analysis Using the Japanese National Clinical Database

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Feeding enterostomy during MIE was evaluated in 19 054 patients from the Japanese NCD using propensity weighting. Enterostomy was associated with higher reoperation and respiratory complications, but lower delayed gastric emptying and deep vein thrombosis, with no significant difference in overall bowel obstruction.

Characterizing the causes and consequences of calcium oxalate crystal presence in Vitis riparia

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Calcium oxalate biomineralization in plants is phylogenetically widespread and morphologically diverse, but the function of these inorganic crystals is an area of active debate. The variety of environmental conditions that produce the crystals, as well as the inconsistent evidence that they provide antiherbivore defense across plant ...
