Association Characteristics and Potential Mechanisms of Aging, Gut Microbiota, and Hearing Loss
The study found that aging leads to unchanged gut microbiota alpha diversity but an increase in Bacteroidetes and a decrease in Firmicutes at the phylum level, with specific genera, species, and functional pathways co‐associated with aging and hearing loss. Through constructing a microbe‐metabolite network, it revealed the mechanism by which protective

Gut Microbiome Functional Reprogramming Reflects Divergent Social Strategies in a Wild Primate
Wild golden snub‐nosed monkeys employ divergent social strategies, forming reproductive one‐male units and bachelor all‐male units. We reveal that these social structures, intertwined with seasonal diets, drive distinct functional reprogramming in their gut microbiomes. This adaptive microbial plasticity plays a crucial role in primate socio‐ecological

Heart‐Rate Variability and Its Role in Non‐Cardiac Surgery Perioperative Care: Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Background Heart rate variability (HRV) is a non‐invasive method of assessing autonomic function. Those with autonomic dysfunction may be at heightened risk of peri‐operative complications due to sympatho‐parasympathetic imbalance. This review summarises the clinical applications of HRV, approaches to how it is measured, and its role in ...

Roux‐en‐Y Reconstruction After Esophagectomy for Postoperative Functional Complaints: A Case Series
Functional complaints affect half of esophagectomy patients, with no standard treatment. In nine patients, Roux‐en‐Y reconstruction for obstruction, redundant conduit, and weight loss was safely performed, with one major complication and no Grade 4 out of five events. Complete symptom resolution reached 67% at 3 months and 89% at 1 year.
