Myofascial release (MFR) techniques, including retromuscular hernia repair, are often considered one-time repairs. We report recurrent ventral hernia repair (RVHR) in patients with prior MFR, focusing on redo-RM repair.

Retrospective analysis of all patients undergoing RVHR after prior MFR. Primary outcomes were operative time, surgical site infection (SSI), surgical site occurrence (SSO), and 20-month recurrence.

111 RVHR were performed after MFR. For patients with prior external oblique release (EOR, n=31), transversus abdominis release (TAR) was used for repair in 13. WAY262611 For patients with prior TAR/PCS (posterior component separation) (n=22), EOR (n=2) and redo-TAR (n=3) were employed with comparable results. Prior retromuscular (RM) repair was performed in 92 patients. Redo-RM (n=32) and intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM; n=38) were most common. Operative time was longer for redo-RM. SSI (12.5 vs 7.9%), SSO (40.1 vs 39.5%), and recurrence (18.8 vs 16.2%) were similar for redo-RM and IPOM repair.

RVHR after prior MFR does not preclude additional MFR. Redo-RM VHR outcomes are similar to those repaired with other techniques.

Current AJCC guidelines recommend evaluating ≥6 lymph nodes during gallbladder cancer resection but real world data suggest this is rarely achieved. We evaluated the extent of lymphadenectomy and survival among patients with gallbladder adenocarcinoma.

Patients with resected pT1b-T3 gallbladder adenocarcinoma were identified from the NCDB (2004-2017). Propensity scores were created for the odds of sufficient lymphadenectomy (≥6 nodes), patients were matched 11 and survival was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method.

Overall, 4760 patients were identified 16.7% underwent sufficient lymphadenectomy, which was predictive of nodal disease (OR 1.77, 95%CI 1.51-2.08) and demonstrated a survival benefit in N0 (median OS 140.8 versus 44.4 months; p<0.0001) and N1-2 disease (median OS 27.7 versus 17.7 months; p<0.0001) after matching.

The majority of patients with gallbladder adenocarcinoma do not undergo the recommended nodal dissection, resulting in a survival disadvantage, likely due to understaging, decisions regarding adjuvant therapy and local tumor recurrence.

Melanoma has benefited in recent years from therapeutic innovations, which have improved overall survival of patients. France has developed a regulatory arsenal allowing faster access to innovative drugs before marketing authorization temporary authorization for use (ATU) and temporary recommendation for use (RTU).

We describe here the decision-making processes that led to the non-publication of the decree on the funding of three RTU in adjuvant melanoma therapy nivolumab, pembrolizumab and the combination of dabrafenib and trametinib, and we analyse the fate of these drugs in order to quantify the potential loss of chance.

On 03AUG2018, the French National Agency for Medicines and Health Product Safety (ANSM) published 3 RTU in order to give rapid access to major innovations in adjuvant melanoma therapy nivolumab, pembrolizumab and the combination of dabrafenib and trametinib. link2 These drugs have respectively demonstrated reductions in the risk of recurrence by 35%, 43% and 55% for target populations of 2200, 1900 and 650 patients per year. Despite a favourable opinion on reimbursement from the French National Authority for Health (HAS), the decrees on reimbursement will never be published, prohibiting the use of these products before the marketing authorisation, and depriving many patients of a potential cure.

Despite a favourable opinion from scientists and health agencies for the rapid availability of a drug, the French public health code does not systematically imply access to a therapeutic innovation. The reform of access to innovation implemented on 01JUL2021 may help tackle this issue.

Infectious diseases are a major cause of morbidity and mortality among cancer patients. We aimed to determine the incidence of infectious diseases as a cause of death among cancer patients and analyze the trends and risk factors associated with mortality.

In total, 151,440 cancer patients who died from infectious diseases in the US diagnosed between 1973 and 2014 from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program were enrolled. A trend analysis of annual cancer deaths caused by infectious diseases was conducted. Cox proportional hazards model and survival decision tree model were performed.

The most common infectious diseases were pneumonia and influenza (n = 72,133), parasitic and other infectious (n = 47,310) diseases, and septicemia (n = 31,119). The patients' mean age was 66.33years; majority of them were male (62%). The overall incidence from 1973 to 2014 showed an insignificant decrease (annual percentage change =  - 0.3, 95% confidence interval [CI] =  - 2.2-1.7, P = 0.8). Parasitic andgative consequences on patients' quality of life and prognosis, improving the prognosis and preventing early death from infection, which is preventable in most cases.

Periprosthetic fungal infections are considered rare and opportunistic infections. Treatment is difficult, and established standards do not yet exist. The choice of the appropriate antifungal drug might affect the patient outcome.

All the three cases presented showed polybacterial recurrent infection of the revision hip arthroplasty. All patients were of younger age, had multiple revisions of the endoprosthesis, each had a large partial femoral replacement greater than 40% of the femoral length, gentamycin-loaded cement, and a long anchoring distance of the used intramedullary stem. Due to the severe life-threatening infection with deep osteomyelitis, an amputation had to be performed. However, despite surgical intervention, the fungal dominated infection persisted. Finally, only the use of caspofungin allowed permanent infection control.

The polybacterial infection is driven by the symbiosis between fungi and bacteria. Therefore, eradication of the fungus is required to achieve elimination of the bacteria. Antimycotics of the echinocandin-class, such as caspofungin, may be considered as initial treatment.

The oleaginous microorganism Schizochytrium sp. is widely used in scientific research and commercial lipid production processes. However, low glucose-to-lipid conversion rate (GLCR) and low lipid productivity of Schizochytrium sp. restrict the feasibility of its use.

Orlistat is a lipase inhibitor, which avoids triacylglycerols (TAGs) from hydrolysis by lipase. TAGs are the main storage forms of fatty acids in Schizochytrium sp. In this study, the usage of orlistat increased the GLCR by 21.88% in the middle stage of fermentation. Whereas the productivity of lipid increased 1.34 times reaching 0.73g/L/h, the saturated fatty acid and polyunsaturated fatty acid yield increased from 21.2 and 39.1 to 34.9 and 48.5g/L, respectively, indicating the advantages of using a lipase inhibitor in microbial lipids fermentation. Similarly, the system was also successful in Thraustochytrid Aurantiochytrium. The metabolic regulatory mechanisms stimulated by orlistat in Schizochytrium sp. were further investigated using transcriptomics and metabolomics. The results showed that orlistat redistributed carbon allocation and enhanced the energy supply when inhibiting the TAGs' degradation pathway. Therefore, lipase in Schizochytrium sp. prefers to hydrolyze saturated fatty acid TAGs into the β-oxidation pathway.

This study provides a simple and effective approach to improve lipid production, and makes us understand the mechanism of lipid accumulation and decomposition in Schizochytrium sp., offering new guidance for the exploitation of oleaginous microorganisms.

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common cancers in the digestive system. link3 Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been found to function as important regulators in the pathogenesis of GC. This study focused on the biological role and molecular mechanism of circ_0000620 in GC progression.

The expression levels of circ_0000620, microRNA-671-5p (miR-671-5p) and Matrix MetalloProteinase 2 (MMP2) were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), immunohistochemistry (IHC) assay or western blot. The stability of circ_0000620 was confirmed by Ribonuclease R (RNase R) assay. The protein levels were determined by western blot assay. Cell viability, colony formation, cell migratory ability, cell invasive ability and tube formation capacity were respectively examined by CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay, wound healing assay, transwell invasion assay and tube formation assay. The interaction between miR-671-5p and circ_0000620 or MMP2 was validated by dual-luciferase reporter assay, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay and RNA pull-down assay. The role of circ_0000620 in GC undefined was explored by xenograft tumor assay.

Circ_0000620 was conspicuously upregulated in GC tissues and cells. Circ_0000620 knockdown reduced cell viability, colony formation, migration, invasion and tube formation capacity of GC cells in vitro. Furthermore, MMP2 was upregulated in GC and MMP2 overexpression reversed the anti-tumor response of circ_0000620 knockdown in GC progression. Moreover, circ_0000620 directly interacted with miR-671-5p and circ_0000620 downregulation regulated malignant behaviors of GC cells by upregulating miR-671-5p. In addition, silencing of circ_0000620 inhibited tumor growth in vivo.

Circ_0000620 knockdown inhibited the malignant development of GC partly through modulating the miR-671-5p/MMP2 axis.

The purpose of this study was to assess changes in cardiovascular disease severity, types, postoperative complications and prognosis during the COVID-19 pandemic and to explore possible influencing factors.

A total of 422 patients were enrolled in this study, and hospitalization and short-term follow-up data were retained. The patient population included 273 men and 149 women. Patients had a median (IQR) age of 54 (45-62) years and were divided into an observation group (130) and a control group (292), primarily according to severity of disease, disease types, baseline indexes, biochemical indexes, cardiac function indexes, complications and prognosis.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, compared with the same period last year, there was a significant increase in patients with aortic dissection (27.69% vs 5.82%), a significant decrease in patients with valvular heart disease (43.08% vs 66.78%), and significantly increased emergency admission (50.00% vs 21.23%) and severity (54.62% vs 27.40%).
