Comparative StudyComparison of the level of intraoperative nociception between laparoscopic and open hepatic resection.
Sufficient suppression of perioperative nociception is important for ensuring favorable postoperative outcomes. Although the level of nociception during laparoscopic surgery is generally lower than during laparotomy, there is insufficient evidence to support this for hepatic resection. ⋯ The level of nociception during laparoscopic hepatic resection is likely similar to that during open hepatic resection. An assertive anti-nociceptive strategy might be required for laparoscopic procedures under general anesthesia, as with open procedures.

Multicenter StudyThe risk factors for mortality and septic shock in liver transplant recipients with ESKAPE bacteremia.
Although bacteremias due to the six ESKAPE pathogens have recently been identified as a serious emerging problems in solid organ transplant (SOT), no information in liver transplant recipients is available. We sought to investigate the risk factors for mortality and septic shock in liver transplant recipients with ESKAPE bacteremia. ⋯ To improve the results of liver transplantation, more effectively therapeutic treatments are of paramount importance when liver transplant recipients with ESKAPE bacteremia present with septic shock, elevated white blood cells count and high body temperature.

Clinical implication of peritoneal cytology in the pancreatic cancer patients who underwent curative resection followed by adjuvant gemcitabine or S-1 chemotherapy.
The clinical implications of peritoneal lavage cytology (CY) status in the patients who received curative resection and adjuvant chemotherapy have not been established. ⋯ The patients with CY+ are likely to experience recurrence, even after they received curative resection and adjuvant Gemcitabine or S-1 adjuvant chemotherapy.
