Feed-forward lower extremity muscle activation and onset timing following functional fatigue during lateral hop landing

Abstract Background Fatigue-induced alterations in neuromuscular control may compromise dynamic ankle stability during landing tasks. However, limited evidence exists regarding the effects of fatigue on feed-forward lower-extremity muscle activation in athletes with different lev...

P1.037. Early-Onset Oesophagogastric Adenocarcinoma: Clinicopathological Characteristics and Outcomes From a Ten-Year Tertiary Centre Experience

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Molecular Biology/Pathology Background The incidence of early-onset oesophago-gastric adenocarcinoma (EO-OGC) is rising worldwide, yet its clinicopathological characteristics and oncological outcomes remain incompletely defined. This study aimed...

Probabilistic Extreme Rainfall Projections under Climate Change: Extending Regional Extreme Value Analysis with a Climate Model–Informed Bayesian Approach

Abstract Climate change challenges traditional civil engineering design approaches that rely on stationarity and use historical data and parametric distributions to quantify uncertainty, e.g., the generalized extreme value (GEV) distributions for extreme rainfall. Key barriers in...

P1.224. An Imaging-Guided Multidisciplinary Framework for Cervical Anastomotic Leak Management

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Cancer – early outcomes and complications Background Cervical anastomotic leaks after esophagectomy are heterogeneous and potentially life-threatening complications. Their impact depends not only on leak rate, but...

Mitigation of serotonin-caused suppression of osteoblast function by extracts of the psychoactive indigenous plant Sceletium tortuosum

Abstract Background Sceletium tortuosum is an endemic plant in Southern Africa, traditionally used as kanna by the indigenous people and also exploited commercially due to its mood-elevating properties. Mesembrine, a major alkaloid from this plant, acts as a selective serotonin r...

P1.099. Esophageal Cancer After Distal Gastrectomy

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Esophageal Carcinogenesis Background The effect of gastrectomy on the subsequent development of esophageal cancer was investigated. Duodenogastroesophageal reflux is thought to be common in patients after distal gastrectomy, but whether this cont...

OA03-RF01.11. Elucidation of the Function of Proline Isomerase Pin1 on Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Molecular Biology/Pathology Background Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) shows limited response to anti-PD-1 monotherapy, prompting interest in combination treatments. Pin1, highly expressed in ESCC and other cancers, drives malignancy. S...

P1.220. Totally Versus Hybrid Robot-Assisted Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy for Thoracic Esophageal Cancer: Similar Perioperative Safety and Oncologic Survival

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Cancer – early outcomes and complications Background This study compared the perioperative safety, quality of life and oncologic outcomes of the totally robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (ToRaMIE) te...

P1.238. Postoperative Outcomes in Patients After Prolonged Intensive Care Unit Stay After Esophagectomy: A Prospective Single-Center Cohort Study

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Cancer – long term outcomes Background Prolonged intensive care unit stay (≥7 days) is common after esophagectomy. Although prolonged ICU stay after major surgery is associated with poor short- and long-term outco...

P1.032. Frequency of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease in Patients Depending on the Presence of Gastric Mucosal Atrophy

Abstract Topic Benign Disease: Gastro-Esophageal Reflux and Hiatal Hernia Background Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) affects 14% of adults worldwide. In patients with gastric mucosal atrophy, due to decreased acid production, the incidence of symptoms may be lower, necessi...

P1.049. Horseshoe Intrathoracic Esophageal Leiomyoma Enucleation by Thoracoscopic-Endoscopic Cooperative Surgery (TECS) With Fluorescence to Preserve the Esophagus

Abstract Topic Benign Disease: Other Background Horseshoe intrathoracic esophageal leiomyoma is a rare benign smooth muscle tumor that partially or completely encircles the esophagus and may cause mass effect, dysphagia, or respiratory symptoms. Diagnosis is established by endosc...

RSP: a reef stereo photogrammetry toolkit for time and cost-effective underwater 3D reconstruction

Abstract Photogrammetry has emerged as an important tool for underwater reef monitoring and addressing a wide range of research questions. However, these methodologies are typically labour-intensive and demand specialized expertise in survey techniques, image processing workflows...

P1.066. Prognostic Equivalence of ypN and pN Staging in Esophageal Cancer After Neoadjuvant Therapy: A Multicenter Cohort Study of 2,545 Patients

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Cancer Background Current staging systems apply ypN and pN categories interchangeably after neoadjuvant therapy plus esophagectomy; however, their prognostic equivalence has not been rigorously established. We inv...

Wave Universe

Deriving quasi Max Planck's Energy & Wave's Frequency relation through mildly modified Isaac Newton's gravitational law - without any need of duality or any other oddity, only using Leonardo da Vinci’s famous "Learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else"...

P1.141. A Machine Learning Model for Assessment of Conduit Perfusion in Robotic Assisted Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy Using Indocyanine Green

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Other Background Anastomotic leak remains a major complication in esophagectomy. Indocyanine Green (ICG) can assist with the assessment of conduit perfusion but remains subjective and prone to bias. Our lab has worked to design a computer vision...

P1.118. Delaying the Treatment Schedule in First-Line Chemotherapy Including ICIs for Esophageal Cancer Does Not Affect Survival Outcomes

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Non-Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Cancer Background Cancer immunotherapy has dramatically changed the management of esophageal cancer. However, the impact of treatment delays on survival outcomes in first-line chemotherapy for esophageal squam...

Distance-spectral classification of twelve-point kissing shells in three dimensions

Let D={1,2,8/3,3,11/3,4}, the set of squared distances realised between two points of one twelve-neighbour shell of a Barlow (close-packed) structure. Call a twelve-point subset of the unit sphere distance-spectral if all of its pairwise squared distances lie in D. We prove that...
