Robot-assisted interventions require advanced endoscopic surgical experience.<br /><br /> To study the immediate results of pancreatoduodenectomy depending on digestive reconstruction procedure.<br /><br /> We analyzed 242 patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy for the period from January 2013 to December 2019. There were 32 combined procedures 28 (11.6%) with portal vein resection and 8 (3.3%) simultaneous operations (right-sided hemicolectomy - 4, right-sided adrenalectomy - 2, gastrectomy with splenectomy - 2). Pancreatic stump was inserted into the jejunum in 156 (64.5%) patients, into the stomach - in 86 (35.5%) cases.<br /><br /> Postoperative period was uneventful in 180 (74.4%) patients. Eighty postoperative complications were observed in 62 (25.6%) patients; 221 (91.3%) patients were discharged, 21 (8.7%) patients died. Pancreatic necrosis was the most common postoperative event and provoked 65 (82.5%) various complications (38 (72.1%) in patients with pancreaticojejunostomy and 20 (71.5%) in those with pancreaticogastrostomy). Incidence of complications was similar in both groups. However, pancreatirded after pancreaticogastrostomy although these patients had lower density of the pancreas and unclear pancreatic duct. Choice of pancreatic-digestive anastomosis should be determined by features of pancreatic parenchyma, pancreatic duct diameter. Nevertheless, final decision is a prerogative of surgeon. Pancreaticogastrostomy is especially advisable in minimally invasive PDEs that will simplify inclusion of the pancreas into digestive system and reduce the incidence of complications and mortality.<br /><br /> To determine the incidence of AS after right lobe living donor liver transplantation with various biliary reconstructions and to identify the predictors of this complication.<br /><br /> A retrospective and prospective analysis included 245 RLLDLTs for the period 2011-2018 at the Burnazjan Federal Medical Biophysical Center. The results of transplantations in 207 patients aged 19-68 years (median 43 years) were assessed.

We analyzed the relationship between surgical characteristics (preoperative data of recipients and donors, graft parameters, technical features of biliary reconstruction and features of post-transplantation period) and incidence of anastomotic strictures. A total of 58 parameters were analyzed.<br /><br /> AS occurred in 20 (9.7%) recipients. Median AS-free period was 5 months (range 1-44). In 17 (85%) patients, AC developed within a year after surgery. Cumulative 1-, 2- and 5-year incidence of AS was 8.3%, 8.9%, ion. Precise surgical technique, high transplantation activity, as well as experience of reconstructive interventions on the bile ducts during other operations can significantly reduce the incidence of AS after RLLDLT up to 9.7%.<br /><br /> During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Italian government took security measures to try to limit infections. Restrictive measures included social distancing, home confinement and the closure of all public structures like gyms and swimming pools. The impact of these limitations on health and lifestyle was inevitably negative. The purpose of this study was to establish the level of physical activity (PA), expressed as energy expenditure (MET-minute/week) in a Southern Italian population before and during the COVID-19 lockdown.<br /><br /> An adapted version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-short form (IPAQ-SF) was published on the official website of the National Institute of Gastroenterology IRCCS S. de Bellis, Castellana Grotte, Bari, Italy and on several social media in May 2020.<br /><br /> Three hundred ten replies (72% women) from Apulia (60%), Calabria (28%), Campania (11%) and Sicily (1%) were included in the study. The COVID-19 lockdown had a negative effect on the vigorous PA intensity level and on walking, but not on the moderate PA intensity level. Additionally, daily time spent sitting down increased by more than 12% during the COVID-19 lockdown.<br /><br /> Isolation changed PA behaviors. The decreased energy expenditure (MET-minute/week) during the lockdown had a negative impact in both genders, especially on the young adults and adults' groups.<br /><br />Isolation changed PA behaviors.

As well, those exposed to side stream smoke are prone to viral and bacterial infections of the respiratory tract.<br /><br /> The study aimed to evaluate whether the prevalence of smoking parents is higher among children with respiratory tract infections, including influenza, in comparison to the general population.<br /><br /> Observational, cohort study. The authors surveyed a cohort of patients and their families, hospitalized in the Paediatric University Hospital in Warsaw during 2018 influenza season. Patients were diagnosed with influenza (using PCR) or other respiratory tract infections. A questionnaire on smoking habits was performed.<br /><br /> Overall, 72 patients were included in the study, median age 2 years and 9 months (IQR 1.4 - 7.2), influenza was diagnosed in 43% (n= 31) of patients. The percentage of regularly smoking parents in the whole cohort amounted to 33.3% (44 of 132) and was statistically significantly higher (p &lt; 0.05) than in the general population (22.7%), whereas in the subgroup with influenza and non-influenza infections it reached 32.2% and 34.2%, respectively.<br /><br /> The prevalence of smoking parents of children with acute respiratory tract infections is higher than in the general population exposing children to tobacco smoke is one of the risk factors for acquiring influenza and others respiratory tract infections. Quitting smoking can decrease the risk of infectious diseases.<br /><br />The prevalence of smoking parents of children with acute respiratory tract infections is higher than in the general population exposing children to tobacco smoke is one of the risk factors for acquiring influenza and others respiratory tract infections.
