Oncological and Clinical Impacts of Routine Splenic Flexure Mobilization in Anterior Resection 24 Dicembre 2024
Background Splenic flexure mobilization (SFM) is widely regarded as one of the most challenging steps in laparoscopic and robotic colorectal surgery, sparking ongoing debate. Some surgeons routinely advocate for SFM, citing its role in achieving greater left colonic reach, which facilitates a safe, tension-free, and well-vascularized anastomosis while adhering to oncological principles. Conversely, others argue […]

The cerebellum is involved in implicit motor sequence learning 23 Dicembre 2024
CONCLUSION: Our finding of enhanced sequence-specific learning, but not general learning, suggests that the cerebellar network not only plays a role in error correction processes, but also serves a sequence-specific function within the integrated motor learning network that connects the basal ganglia and cerebellum.

Artificial intelligence and robotics in regional anesthesia 23 Dicembre 2024
Artificial intelligence (AI) technology is vital for practitioners to incorporate AI and robotics in day-to-day regional anesthesia practice. Recent literature is encouraging on its applications in regional anesthesia, but the data are limited. AI can help us identify and guide the needle tip precisely to the location. This may help us reduce the time, improve […]

The Hasson Versus Veress Trocar Wars: Determining the Safety Index of Laparoscopic Surgical Entry Techniques 23 Dicembre 2024
CONCLUSION: Although the literature describes the association of the Veress technique with visceral and vascular injuries, our study found it to be as safe as Hasson's open port placement technique. Therefore, either technique can be employed for the safe establishment of pneumoperitoneum in laparoscopic and robotic surgeries.

Postoperative urinary dysfunction following lateral lymph node dissection for rectal cancer via minimally invasive surgery 23 Dicembre 2024
CONCLUSIONS: There was no difference in urinary dysfunction after LLND between LS and RALS. Bilateral LLND and SSI were risk factors for lengthening DUC. Compared to bilateral LLND, unilateral LLND can reduce urinary dysfunction; therefore, selective LLND, which is overwhelmingly unilateral LLND, and prevention of perioperative SSI may be important for maintenance of urinary function.

Predicting upper limb motor recovery in subacute stroke patients via fNIRS-measured cerebral functional responses induced by robotic training 22 Dicembre 2024
CONCLUSION: This study confirmed that UE-RAT-induced FC can serve as an important predictor of rehabilitation, especially when combined with clinical information, further enhancing the accuracy of model predictions. These findings provide new insights for the early prediction of patients' recovery potential, which may contribute to personalized rehabilitation decisions.
