Single-incision laparoscopic gastrectomy can be difficult because of complex instrumentation and a limited working angle. We standardized a needle device-assisted single-incision laparoscopic gastrectomy (NA-SILG) procedure for early gastric cancer in 2013. Herein, we present our technique and evaluate it in comparison to the conventional laparoscopic gastrectomy CLG) technique. We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 149 patients who underwent a NA-SILG or distal (CLG) for early gastric cancer between January 2013 and August 2016. We performed 11 propensity score matching between the two groups. Eighteen patients who underwent a NA-SILG and 131 who underwent a CLG were included. Almost all patients were in clinical stage IA. Operative times were 216 ± 29.7 minutes and 220 ± 51.7 minutes for the NA-SILG and CLG groups, respectively; the median intraoperative bleeding amounts were 5 mL and 10 mL for the NA-SILG and CLG groups, respectively. The median number of retrieved lymph nodes was 41.5 and 57 for the NA-SILG and CLG groups, respectively. The number of patients needing analgesics was significantly lower in the NA-SILG group (P = .003) than in the CLG group. Neither group had postoperative complications more severe than Clavien-Dindo classification III. Needle device-assisted SILG is safe and feasible for early gastric cancer treatment in slim figure patients. It has short and long-term outcomes comparable to the CLG but is less invasive and results in less postoperative pain.

To determine the efficiency of prostate health index (PHI) calculated simultaneously during an ultrasound-guided fine-needle prostate biopsy in prostate cancer diagnosis. The present study included 258 subsequent patients who underwent a TRUS-guided biopsy in our clinic between August 2015 and March 2016 due to elevated blood levels of PSA and suspicion of prostate cancer. The total PSA, free PSA and pro-PSA were analysed in all patients before the procedure. The average age of 258 patients was 63.5 (36-91) years, and the mean PSA level and mean PHI values were 40.1 (0.12-2170) and 118 (0.41-1308), respectively. According to the PSA data, the patients were divided into two groups the low PSA (<4ng/mL) group containing ten patients with adenocancer (31.2%) and 22 patients with BPH (68.8%) and the high PSA (>4ng/mL) group consisting of 86 patients with adenocancer (42.2%) and 118 (57.8%) with BPH. The sensitivity and specificity of PSA in detecting prostate adenocancer were calculated as 89.6% and 15.7%, respectively. Similarly, when a PHI level below 55 was accepted as low, and a PHI level at or above 55 was accepted as high, PHI's sensitivity and specificity were determined as 71.9% and 67.9%, respectively. The overall findings indicate that the specificity of PHI is higher than PSA in terms of prostate cancer detection.

The decidua is a tissue that contacts both maternal and foetal components and is pivotal to labour onset due to its location. Due to the heterogeneity of decidual tissue, it is challenging to study its role in the peripartum period. Herein, we analysed the transcriptomes of peripartum decidua at single-cell resolution. Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed for 29231 decidual cells before and after delivery to characterize the transcriptomes. Eight major cell types (including endothelial cells, fibroblasts) and subtypes of decidual stromal cells, extravillous trophoblasts and T cells were identified and found to have various functions. Compared with before delivery, the activation of decidual stromal cell, extravillous trophoblast and T-cell subtypes to different degrees was observed after delivery. Furthermore, the activation involved multiple functions, such as cell proliferation, and several pathways, such as the activator protein 1 pathway. The results of pseudotemporal ordering showed differentiation of decidual stromal cell and extravillous trophoblast subtypes, suggesting inhomogeneity of these subgroups in decidualization (decidual stromal cell) and invasion (extravillous trophoblast). The peripartum decidual tissue is heterogeneous. This study revealed changes in the decidua and its components at single-cell resolution; these findings provide a new perspective for the study of peripartum decidua.

Only 25% of oesophageal adenocarcinoma (OAC) patients have a pathological response to neo-adjuvant therapy (NAT) before oesophagectomy. Early response assessment using PET imaging may help guide management of these patients. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to synthesise the evidence detailing response rate and diagnostic accuracy of early PET-CT assessment. We systematically searched several databases including MEDLINE and Embase. Studies with mixed cohorts of histology, tumour location and a repeat PET-CT assessment after more than one cycle of NAT were excluded. Reference standard was pathological response defined by Becker or Mandard classifications. https://www.selleckchem.com/ Primary outcome was metabolic response rate after one cycle of NAT defined by a reduction in maximum standardised uptake value (SUVmax) of 35%. Secondary outcome was diagnostic accuracy of treatment response prediction, defined as the sensitivity and specificity of early PET-CT using this threshold. Quality of evidence was also assessed. treatment resistance thanof pathologicalresponse. Further research is required to define optimal PET-guided treatment decisions in OAC. High-quality evidence is lacking, and few studies met the inclusion criteria of this systematic review. The sensitivity of PET using a SUVmax reduction threshold of 35% was suboptimal and varied widely. However, specificity was consistent across studies with a pooled value of 75.0%, suggesting early PET assessment is a better predictor of treatment resistance than of pathological response. Further research is required to define optimal PET-guided treatment decisions in OAC.
