Incidence, Causes, and Outcomes of Conversion to Open Surgery During Minimally Invasive Left Pancreatectomy: A Prospective Multicenter Study

ABSTRACT Background Minimally invasive left pancreatectomy (MILP) has become the preferred approach to treat lesions of the pancreatic body and tail. However, the procedure may require conversion to open surgery, with reported conversion rates varying widely in the literature. Th...

E8 Momentum Synchronization Principle for Fractal Market Dynamics — E8 Intelligence Research

The E8 Momentum Synchronization Principle posits that the 240 E8 root vectors, each assigned a φ‑scaled phase offset of the 132 Hz base, form a topological momentum lattice that couples explicitly to volatility vectors across all spectral bands. By embedding the lattice in the 8‑...

Challenges and strategies toward next‐generation high‐performance flexible and printable thin‐film transistors

Abstract Printing‐based fabrication is emerging as a viable alternative to vacuum microfabrication for flexible thin‐film transistors (TFTs), enabling low‐cost, scalable, and low‐temperature manufacturing for additive processing and large‐area electronics. In this review, we summ...

Integrative DNA barcoding and multimethod species delimitation reveal marker performance in the genus Ficus L. (Moraceae)

Accurate delimitation of species is fundamental for understanding biodiversity, evolutionary history, and conservation priorities, particularly in taxonomically challenging genera such as Ficus . This study systematically evaluates the performance of three single locus barcodes (...

Case report on new injection method for treating female Meige syndrome patients

Meige syndrome is an uncommon, long-lasting, and recurring form of craniofacial focal dystonia marked by bilateral blepharospasm and involuntary facial muscle contractions that greatly disrupt the daily activities and social interactions of those affected. The primary minimally i...

Effectiveness of oxidative therapies in mature oral biofilms: A systematic review and meta-analysis

To evaluate the antimicrobial activity of oxidative therapies in disrupting and reducing mature oral biofilms (≥ 48 h) and to assess treatment effects across different oxidative modalities. A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted following PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Twe...

Burden and predictors of bronchopulmonary dysplasia in preterm infants: A seven-year cohort

ملخص الخلفية تظل خلل التنسج القصبي الرئوي من المضاعفات الجسيمة للخداج، إذ يرتبط بمراضة معتبرة وتباين واسع في معدلات حدوثه على المستوى العالمي. وتُعدّ البيانات المحلية ركيزةً أساسية لوضع استراتيجيات وقائية فعّالة وتحسين المآلات السريرية. الأهداف تقدير معدل حدوث خلل التنسج القصبي ا...

Multi-stakeholder perspectives on acceptability and delivery of buprenorphine for women who use drugs

Women who use drugs (WWUD) face substantial barriers to accessing medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD), including buprenorphine. As part of a formative evaluation to co-design a community-based intervention for MOUD delivery, we explored multi-stakeholder perspectives on th...

Decision Durability: A Foundational Framework and Research Agenda (Canonical Corpus v1.0, Volume I)

Organizations have built sophisticated systems for producing and moving information, yet they remain comparatively weak at preserving the active state of judgment as decisions move toward action. This paper introduces Decision Durability: the capacity of a judgment to remain unde...

Institutional evolution of a robotic otolaryngology program across consecutive da Vinci Si, Xi, and SP platform transitions

Sustained development of a robotic otolaryngology program depends on coordinated technological, workforce, clinical, and educational development. However, how these elements evolve together over time remains poorly understood. We conducted a retrospective longitudinal program eva...

A New Survival and Prognosis Predictive Model for Combined-Small Cell Lung Cancer (C-SCLC): A Machine Learning Approach

Combined Small Cell Lung Cancer (C-SCLC), a rare variant subtype of lung cancer, has its distinct characteristics and prognosis challenges. Despite its clinical significance, there exists a knowledge gap in the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of C-SCLC. Utilizing the SEER dat...

Making Regeneration Observable: A Longitudinal Multimodal Perturbation-Response Framework for Distraction Osteogenesis

Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a uniquely observable form of tissue regeneration: an osteotomy is followed by latency, repeated mechanical distraction, and consolidation, while the patient remains within an accessible treatment construct for months. Yet monitoring remains domin...

When Visuals Meet People with Disabilities: How Destination Image Featuring Disability Drives Travel Intention?

This research investigates how featuring people with disabilities in tourism destination images on social media shapes viewers’ travel intention. Guided by warm glow theory, a mixed-methods approach was employed, comprising a field study, semi-structured interviews, and five onli...

Greenhouse gases resulting from grid‐connected electricity demand

Abstract Many businesses would like to claim their electricity use results in no greenhouse gases. Because electricity cannot be traced from specific generators to purchasers, regulators and users propose an approximation. Clean electricity use would meet three conditions, or “pi...

Salvage surgery after total neoadjuvant therapy and watch-and-wait in rectal cancer: a systematic review and proposed minimum outcome set

Abstract Background Salvage surgery for local regrowth following watch-and-wait (W&W) after total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT) is perceived to be technically more difficult than immediate surgery after treatment. However, surgical difficulty lacks standardised definition and reporti...

Analysis of Thermohydraulic Spalling in Blended Cement Concrete

Abstract Recently, the construction industry has increasingly focused on the development of more sustainable transport infrastructure, such as tunnels, driven by the growing use of clinker-reduced cements. One major challenge in this context is fire exposure, which can lead to se...
