Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Cancer – early outcomes and complications Background Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is recommended for early-stage esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Most data on the efficacy of ESD for ESCC comes...

Patient preferences for the multidisciplinary management of endometriosis and adenomyosis: a mixed-methods survey-based study

Background: Endometriosis and adenomyosis are common, debilitating conditions frequently associated with delayed diagnosis and fragmented care-based pathways. In Denmark, two highly specialized centres provide advanced endometriosis treatment. However, it remains unclear whether...

Internet-based Emotion Regulation Individual Therapy for Adolescents (IERITA) plus treatment as usual versus treatment as usual for adolescent outpatients with non-suicidal self-injury—the TEENS multi-site trial: study protocol and statistical analysis plan for a multi-site randomised clinical trial

Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a public health concern and a widespread behaviour, especially among adolescents. NSSI is an indicator of psychological distress and a known risk factor for later suicidal behaviour and death by suicide; however, evidence-based treatment options...

P1.158. Clinical Performance of a Liquid Fiducial Marker for Preoperative Marking of the Optimal Resection Line in Gastroesophageal Cancer Surgery

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Cancer Background Esophageal and gastroesophageal junction cancers have a poor prognosis despite improvements in curative treatment. Achieving microscopically cancer-free resection margins is essential for long-te...

Effect of thermal ablation on persistent HPV infection in Danish women ≥ 40 years of age: a quasi-randomized clinical study

Thermal ablation is a cervical heat treatment that destroys a defined area of the cervix. We evaluated whether thermal ablation facilitates HPV clearance in women with persistent high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection, using HPV status and FAM19A4/miR124-2 DNA methylat...

Prognostic Impact of Kidney Function before Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation - A Nationwide study

Abstract Background Prognosis after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) keeps improving, yet some high-risk groups persist with chronic kidney disease being one. Contemporary data on the prognostic importance of pre-TAVI kidney function are sparse, leaving uncertainty...

Current Use, Monitoring and Reversal of Neuromuscular Block in Pediatric Anesthesia and Intensive Care: A Web‐Based Cross‐Sectional ESAIC Survey

BACKGROUND: Neuromuscular blocking agents are recommended by the European Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care (ESAIC) and European Society of Paediatric Anaesthesia (ESPA) for facilitating tracheal intubation in children. Despite these recommendations, real-world data o...

On the History of Hepatic Vein Catheterization

ABSTRACT Hepatic vein catheterization (HVC) in man was first performed 80 years ago in the wake of right‐sided heart catheterization. Several new methods, recognitions and concepts followed, especially the indirect Fick‐method for determination of splanchnic blood flow. Five year...

COPI Coatomer Regulates Several Steps of HDL Metabolism

Abstract Background Reverse cholesterol transport by high density lipoproteins (HDL) is considered as an anti-atherogenic metabolic pathway. Hepatocytes determine the efficacy of this pathway by the production of apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and its lipidation by ATP binding casse...

Exercise training during hospitalization in community-acquired pneumonia: effects on functional ability, body composition, and physical activity level

Abstract Background Physical inactivity contributes to functional decline and is associated with increased risk of adverse outcomes in patients hospitalized with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Exercise programs applied during acute hospitalization may mitigate these effects,...

Prevalence, Incidence and Mortality of Chronic Kidney Disease in Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes—A Nationwide Danish Register‐Based Cohort Study

ABSTRACT Aims Chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains a leading complication of diabetes, and understanding population‐level trends is crucial for prevention and healthcare planning. We examined national trends in CKD prevalence, incidence, and mortality among people with diabetes....

Concurrent Germline RB1 & Mosaic TP53 in a Child With Multiple Childhood Cancers

ABSTRACT We report a patient with a pathogenic germline variant (PGV) in RB1 and somatic mosaicism for a pathogenic TP53 variant who developed three distinct types of childhood cancer: retinoblastoma, osteosarcoma, and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) before the age of 6 years. The...

Vaccination in pediatric transplantation—General recommendations. A position paper by the European Reference Network TransplantChild

Infectious diseases remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among pediatric transplant recipients, despite significant advances in transplantation management. Vaccination is the most effective strategy to prevent infections; however, its efficacy is hindered in solid or...

Benchmarking short-read germline structural variant calling highlights advantages of using ensembles of tools and small impact of graph genome alignment

Structural variants (SVs) in the human genome play an important role in health and disease. Identification of SVs is commonly performed using short-read sequencing. However, because sequenced fragments are typically shorter than the variants themselves, accurate SV calling remain...

A temporal differentiation program after birth delineates γδ T cell immunity

Type 1 and type 3 γδ T cells develop in the embryonic thymus, yet it is not known whether they continue to differentiate after birth in tissues. Here, we show that in the first week of life, intestinal γδ T cells up-regulated many T cell activation and type 3 genes, while the pos...

Nonfermenting Gram-Negative Bacilli Other Than Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter Species in Pediatric Blood Cultures: A Multicenter European Analysis

BACKGROUND: Nonfermenting Gram-negative bacilli other than Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter species are increasingly recognized as opportunistic pathogens in pediatric populations, yet their epidemiology and antimicrobial resistance remain poorly defined. METHODS: We conducted a mul...

Nerve Injury Following Birth, the Role of Epidural Analgesia—A Protocol for a Scoping Review

BACKGROUND: Epidural analgesia is widely used during labor, and postpartum nerve injury is an uncommon but clinically relevant outcome. Neurological symptoms after childbirth may be related to obstetric or anesthetic factors. Studies vary considerably in how postpartum nerve inju...

Effect of Case Variation on Mastoidectomy Training Using 3D‐Printed Temporal Bones Models—A Prospective, Randomized Trial

Abstract Objective To investigate effects of repeated training with anatomically varied versus identical 3D‐printed models on skill acquisition, cognitive load, and skill retention in novice mastoidectomy trainees. Study Design A prospective, randomized, controlled, educational t...

Evaluating the Impact of Clonidine and Midazolam Premedication on Emergence Delirium in Pediatric Patients

BACKGROUND: adrenoceptor agonists, such as clonidine, have gained popularity for their sedative and analgesic properties. The effect of these agents on the incidence of emergence delirium remains uncertain. This study evaluated whether premedication with clonidine or midazolam is...

Treatment of striae albae with combination of fractional radiofrequency and topical tretinoin: A randomized controlled trial

Mature striae distensae, called striae albae, are common but treatment-resistant dermal scars. Fractional radiofrequency (FRF) can potentially act as transdermal permeation enhancer for topical tretinoin (TT). This study investigated FRF and TT as a combination treatment for stri...
