Background: Preoperative treatment with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) before bariatric surgery has not been studied. Therefore, we investigated the impact of neoadjuvant treatment with GLP-1 RAs on weight loss and postoperative outcomes in patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy for severe obesity.

Method: A retrospective single-center study was conducted between January 2022 and December 2023.

Community Medicine Education Promotion Office, Faculty of Medicine, Kagawa University Ikenobe, 1750-1, Miki-Cho, Kagawa, 761-0793, Japan.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming perioperative medicine, particularly anesthesiology, by enabling novel applications, such as real-time data synthesis, individualized risk prediction, and automated documentation. These capabilities enhance clinical decision-making, patient communication, and workflow efficiency in the operating room. In education, generative AI offers immersive simulations and tailored learning experiences that improve both technical skills and professional judgment.

This study aimed to develop a predictive model and construct a graded nomogram to estimate the risk of severe acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients without preexisting kidney dysfunction undergoing liver transplantation (LT). Patients undergoing LT between January 2022 and June 2023 were prospectively screened. Severe AKI was defined as Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes stage 3.

Risk Factors for Nosocomial Infections Following Surgical Repair of Esophageal Atresia.

Research Laboratory "Developmental and Induced Diseases" (LR19ES12), Faculty of Medicine of Sfax, University of Sfax, Sfax, Tunisia.

This study identified cardiac comorbidities, prematurity, low 5-min Apgar score, and prolonged postoperative intubation as independent risk factors for NIs following surgical repair of EA. We believe that these results would be of great value in clinical practice. They provide a valuable framework for the early identification of high-risk neonates, who would be targets for enhanced infection surveillance, appropriate perioperative strategies, and reinforced hygiene protocols.
