Study on Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing Manual Suture and Different Models of Mechanical Suture in the Mimicking of Bariatric Surgery in Swine | Chapter 23 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 1

 Background: Differences in surgeon ability sparked the development of technologies that, by overcoming individual differences, allow for proper technique execution and the greatest possible final result. A procedure must be replicated consistently by the majority of surgeons in order for it to be adopted and recognised as effective.

The goal of this study was to compare the results of manual sutures vs mechanical sutures in the treatment of gastroenteroanastomosis and enteroanastomosis in swine from the perspective of anatomic pathology utilising different models of linear mechanical staplers.

The researchers employed 36 healthy, adult male Sus scrofa domesticus pigs that weighed between 20.7 and 25.5 kg. Group A, manual suture with Polysorb® 3-0 wire; group B, 80-shear linear stapler (Covidien® Gia 8038-S); group C, 75-shear linear stapler (Ethicon® Tlc 75); and group D, 75-shear linear stapler (Resource® Yq 75-3); and group E, 75-shear linear stapler (Resource® Yq 75-3).

The formation of foreign body granuloma in the gastroenteroanastomosis and enteroanastomosis was observed in 88.9% of the swine that underwent manual suture and none of the swine that underwent stapling during the histopathological analysis. There was also a statistical difference in the degree of inflammation between swine from Group A and those from Groups B, C, and D, with the latter being more extreme in those swine that received manual suture. Closing anastomoses in swine with mechanical sutures provides the advantage of avoiding the need to puncture the intestinal wall within the cavity, reducing the danger of peritoneal cavity contamination, even though the findings were not statistically significant.

Conclusion: Both types of suture promoted proper healing of gastroenteroanastomoses and enteroanastomoses in swine, though there was a higher degree of inflammation and an increased occurrence of foreign body granuloma in swine subjected to manual suture, despite similarities in safety, efficiency, and effectiveness between the models of linear mechanical staplers tested during the performance of these anastomoses on swine.

Greening Regional Airports: A Vision for Carbon Neutral Infrastructure | Chapter 12 | Contemporary Perspective on Science, Technology and Research Vol. 3

 This study provides an overview of the energy demand of a regional airport, divided into individual time horizons. The electrification of aircraft systems raises the question of whether airports will be among the largest electricity consumers in our infrastructure in the future. Sustainability and especially emission reductions are significant challenges for airports that are currently being addressed. The Clean Sky 2 project GENESIS addresses the environmental sustainability of hybrid-electric 50-passenger aircraft systems in a life cycle perspective to support the development of a technology roadmap for the transition to sustainable and competitive electric aircraft systems. This article originates from the GENESIS research and describes various options for ground power supply at a regional airport. Potential solutions for airport infrastructure with a short (2030), medium (2040), and long (2050) time horizon are proposed. In addition to the environmental and conservation benefi...

Risk Factors for Postpartum Psychiatric Disorders. A Review of the Literature | Chapter 8 | New Visions in Medicine and Medical Science Vol. 4

  Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the risk factors for the development of postpartum psychiatric disorders through international literature. Materials and Methods: Throughout many articles in PubMed, Google scholar and PsycInfo, a great amount of recent data was gathered to identify the disorders that are most common as well as their risk factors. Results: After childbirth, most commonly women experience postpartum depression, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder and postpartum psychosis. All the disorders have many similar risk-factors with the main one being preexisting psychiatric disorder and many similar symptoms too. Conclusions: Women after childbirth are at risk of experience many psychiatric disorders, such as postpartum distress, postpartum post traumatic stress disorder and even more rarely postpartum psychosis. It is important to provide comprehensive support to ensure the well-being of both the mother and the infant and this will b...

Alkali Element Modification of Glucose Molecules as a Method to Dissolve Cancer Cells | Chapter 12 | New Visions in Medicine and Medical Science Vol. 4

  The present study highlights about alkali element modification of glucose molecules as a method to dissolve cancer cells. The central regulation of the mechanisms governing cell proliferation has little effect on cancer cells. Cancer cells are entirely independent of the central command and divide and proliferate on their own, making it challenging to activate their response mechanism. Precisely, this is the reason why they are at risk to the health of humans and/or any biological entities. Instead of trying to reconnect the central command of the growth control mechanism to cancer cells that are already out of the range, we present a method of using the cancer cell’s own irresponsive and uncontrolled growth mechanism to their disadvantage and destroy the cancer cells. We found that this is achievable in an atomic/molecular level study of the glucose molecule, which is the primary food source used for growth and energy generation by all cells in the body, including the cancer cel...
