Management of xylazine toxicity, overdose, dependence, and withdrawal: A systematic review
Abstract Background and Objectives Xylazine, an alpha‐2‐adrenergic agonist, has been increasingly implicated in substance use and overdose crises. However, little is known about its effects on humans. With the growing public health crisis surrounding xylazine, it has become important to recognize and promptly manage symptoms of xylazine toxicity ...

ABSTRACT Background Inguinal hernia repair (IHR) is one of the most frequently performed procedures in general surgery. There is clinical equipoise regarding the increasing global adoption of robotic IHR as a safe minimally invasive option. We present the short‐term outcomes of robotic transabdominal (R‐TAPP) preperitoneal IHR as a protocol‐driven day ...

Effects of Complex Ventral Hernia and Stoma on Body Image and Interpersonal Relationships
ABSTRACT Background Complex ventral hernias (CVH) are an increasingly prevalent condition. Historically, surgeons have focused on surgical complications and recurrence in assessing the success of hernia repair surgery. In recent years, an increasing focus has been placed on quality‐of‐life outcomes in patients, with newer questionnaires being developed

Concurrent Mesh Repair of a Morgagni and Umbilical Hernia during a Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy in a Morbidly Obese Individual [PDF]
Morgagni Hernia is a rare form of diaphragmatic hernia. It is mainly asymptomatic and often identified incidentally during surgery. Tension-free synthetic mesh repair is the preferred treatment modality.

Background and Aims: The use of mesh repair in a small- or middle-sized umbilical hernia remains controversial, and evidence is based on only few and small heterogeneous randomized trials. The primary aim was to assess differences, if any, in recurrence (

This systematic review and meta‐analysis seeks to evaluate the current evidence to characterize whether the timing of repair (acute or elective) and the mode of repair (mesh or direct suture) influence recurrence outcomes in patients with traumatic abdominal wall hernia in laparotomy and non‐laparotomy settings.

Predicting Surfactant Need at Birth: Failed Validation of a Bedside Method Using Gastric Aspirates
ABSTRACT Aim To validate a prototype point‐of‐care (POC) test for the lecithin/sphingomyelin (L/S) ratio by identifying the optimal L/S cut‐off for predicting surfactant need in preterm infants < 30 weeks' gestation using gastric aspirates (GAS) sampled at birth and to assess clinical feasibility.
