Develop a pioneer surgical anonymization algorithm for reliable and accurate real-time removal of out-of-body images validated across various robotic platforms. ⋯ Our deep learning model, Robotic Anonymization Network, offers reliable, accurate, and safe real-time anonymization during complex and lengthy surgical procedures regardless of the robotic platform. The model can be used in real time for surgical live streaming and is openly available.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Effect of Lower Extremity Nerve Decompression in Patients with Painful Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy: The DNND Randomized, Observation Group- and Placebo Surgery-controlled Clinical Trial.
To evaluate the effect of nerve decompression on pain in patients with lower extremity painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). ⋯ Although nerve decompression was associated with reduced pain, the benefit of surgical decompression needs further investigation as a placebo effect may be responsible for part or all of these effects.

Comparative Study
Feasibility, Safety, and Efficacy of Aggressive Multimodal Management of Elderly Patients with Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy (NAT), followed by surgical resection in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) aged ≥75 years. ⋯ This comprehensive three-part study showed that administration of NAT, followed by surgical resection, seems to be safe and effective among patients ≥75 years of age. An aggressive approach should be offered to older adults undergoing multimodal treatment of PDAC.
