Enhanced recovery programmes (ERPs) after surgery reduce postoperative complications and hospital stay. Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often present risk factors for postoperative complications. This accounts for reluctance to include them in ERPs. We compared outcome after right colectomy with an ERP in IBD and non-IBD…[Read more]

There were no adverse effects on the longevity of parasitoids that emerged from parasitized larvae exposed to M. robertsii. Based on these results, we argue that M. robertsii has the potential to be used for biocontrol of A. CP21 in vivo ludens, with limited risk to D. longicaudata adults.In this paper, a transmission-guided lightweight neural…[Read more]

Symptomatic premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) are a common clinical problem. Although most of ventricular ectopic foci can be easily ablated, some are very challenging and require special manoeuvers. This case report presents an approach to improve electrode stability during ablation.

Throughout this review, an emerging trend is the lack of generalizability and the need to individualize interventions, since the consequences of the MC’s phases and their relationships with exercise and nutritional intake seem to vary greatly from person to person. In this sense, average data are probably not relevant and could potentially be…[Read more]

Purpose To investigate the effect of NKR-1 antagonists in an established UVR-B-induced cataract mouse model. Furthermore, to examine the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines/chemokines in mouse eyes following unilateral UVR-B exposure.Methods Mice received intraperitoneally injections of Fosaprepitant and Spantide I, before and after…[Read more]
