Anatomies by Hugh Aldersey-Williams; Extremes by Kevin Fong – review
Two contrasting books show the right and wrong ways to write about scienceI looked forward immensely to Hugh Aldersey-Williams's Anatomies. After all, I'm an anatomist, fascinated by the body. When the parcel arrived, containing, according to the blurb, something by "one of our finest science writers", promising to blend "science, art, literature, the everyday" – well, to me, that sounded like Christmas had arrived early. I was in for a disappointment.Aldersey-Williams is most interesting, although often rambling, when discussing the body and its parts in literature, architecture and art, and his own experiences in the d...

Mitral valve repair of isolated posterior leaflet prolapse: resect or respect?
A best evidence topic in cardiac surgery was written according to a structured protocol. The question addressed was whether it is best in a patient with posterior leaflet prolapse to resect tissue from the posterior leaflet or to preserve the leaflet tissue by only adding neochordal reconstruction. Altogether, 279 papers were found using the reported search, of which 16 represented the best evidence to answer the clinical question. The authors, journal, date, country of publication, patient group, study type, relevant outcomes and results of these papers are tabulated. The results of the reported studies provided interesti...

Single incision laparoscopic TAPP with standard laparoscopic instruments and suturing of flaps: A continuing study
Conclusions: SITAPP for groin hernias, performed with conventional instruments is feasible, easy to learn, has a very high patient acceptance and is cosmetically superior to conventional TAPP. The use of tackers reduces the operating time significantly.

A review of the surgical management of right-sided aortic arch aneurysms
Aneurysms and dissections of the right-sided aortic arch are rare and published data are limited to a few case reports and small series. The optimal treatment strategy of this entity and the challenges associated with their management are not yet fully investigated and conclusive. We performed a systematic review of the literature to identify all patients who underwent surgical or endovascular intervention for right aortic arch aneurysms or dissections. The search was limited to the articles published only in English. We focused on presentation and critically assessed different management strategies and outcomes. We identi...

Evaluation of information on the Internet regarding surgical mesh for hernia repair: analysis of websites found through three popular search engines
ConclusionsThese results emphasize the challenges of using an Internet search engine to find comprehensive and appropriate information regarding surgical mesh. This manuscript underscores the importance for physicians to direct patients toward specific websites to mitigate their exposure to websites that are biased and not appropriate for patients searching for an accurate and comprehensive overview of surgical mesh.

Genes, Vol. 12, Pages 1037: ZEB2, the Mowat-Wilson Syndrome Transcription Factor: Confirmations, Novel Functions, and Continuing Surprises
onidi After its publication in 1999 as a DNA-binding and SMAD-binding transcription factor (TF) that co-determines cell fate in amphibian embryos, ZEB2 was from 2003 studied by embryologists mainly by documenting the consequences of conditional, cell-type specific Zeb2 knockout (cKO) in mice. In between, it was further identified as causal gene causing Mowat-Wilson Syndrome (MOWS) and novel regulator of epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT). ZEB2’s functions and action mechanisms in mouse embryos were first addressed in its main sites of expression, with focus on those that helped to explain neurodevelopmental an...

What are Some of the Complications of Short Bowel Syndrome?
Discussion Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is one of the most common gastrointestinal emergencies in neonates. Mortality rates are from 0-45% depending on infant weight and gestation with more premature and smaller infants having greater mortality. NEC usually occurs in premature infants but it also occurs in term infants. The etiology is unknown but is probably multifactorial with ischemia and/or reperfusion playing some role. There are ‘outbreaks’ of NEC but no causative organism has been identified. Regardless of the originating cause, inflammation of the intestine and release of inflammatory mediators causes variou...

Quantifying the Impact of COVID-19 on Hand and Wrist Surgery Procedural Volume: A National Analysis of 381,046 Cases
CONCLUSIONS: Major milestones of the COVID-19 pandemic correlated with fluctuations in the number of hand and wrist procedures performed across the United States. Future studies should seek to evaluate the impact of patient backlogs and individual procedure fluctuations on financial impacts, patient outcomes, and orthopaedic trainee experience.PMID:36573172 | PMC:PMC9771746 | DOI:10.1016/j.jhsg.2022.12.004

"Mixed Reality" in patient education prior to abdominal aortic aneurysm repair
Conclusions: The use of MR in patient education of AAA patients scheduled for elective repair is feasible. While patients reported positively on the use of MR in education, similar levels of informational gain and patient satisfaction can be achieved with MR and conventional methods.PMID:36891667 | DOI:10.1024/0301-1526/a001062

Fritz Vollrath: "Who wouldn't want to study spiders?'
Fritz Vollrath's pioneering studies of spider's silk promise to deliver huge medical benefits in everything from knee replacements to heart transplantsUp on the roof of Professor Fritz Vollrath's lab in the zoology department at Oxford University, there is a makeshift greenhouse in which he nurtures his favourite golden orb web spiders. Walking into the greenhouse is a little like finding yourself inside one of those Damien Hirst vitrines that dramatise fast-forward life and death. The air is frenzied with the buzz of flies and thick with the smell of rotting fruit; look up and dozens of the mature African spiders, three i...
