Article Abstract
Objective: This study assessed whether cholecystectomy is a risk factor for newly developed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the Korean population.
Background: There is a lack of evidence that cholecystectomy is independently associated with insulin resistance and T2DM.
Methods: This study included all patients aged more than 20 years who had undergone cholecystectomy from 2010 to 2015 (n=55,166) and age-matched and sex-matched control subjects without cholecystectomy (n=110,332) using the National Health Insurance Service database. They were followed up until the date of newly developed T2DM or study end and the incidence of T2DM was traced over a maximum observation period of 7 years.
Results: Overall, 55,166 patients who underwent cholecystectomy and 110,332 age-matched and sex-matched controls were followed up for ∼4.7 years, during which, incident T2DM occurred in 5982 (3.61%) patients. Cholecystectomy was associated with 20% higher risk of T2DM after adjustment for all covariates. The cumulative incidence of T2DM also significantly increased in the cholecystectomy group for ∼7 years ( P <0.001). The adjusted hazard ratio (HR) for T2DM was the highest in the group with both cholecystectomy and obesity using the control without both cholecystectomy and obesity as a reference [HR=1.41, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.29-1.56]. The group with cholecystectomy without obesity showed the comparable risk of incident T2DM compared with the group without cholecystectomy with obesity (HR=1.29, 95% CI: 1.20-1.40 for cholecystectomy without obesity and HR=1.24, 95% CI: 1.14-1.36 for control with obesity).
Conclusions: These results provide evidence that cholecystectomy is associated with an increased risk of newly developed T2DM in the Korean population. Further research is required to elucidate the mechanism of the association between cholecystectomy and incident diabetes.

This study aimed to identify the biomarkers that was associated with the postoperative incisional pain in patients with acute cholecystitis undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery (ACC-LC). Sixty ACC-LC patients were enrolled and divided into mild pain (MP) and moderate-to-severe pain (MSP) groups based on their visual analog scale (VAS) scores 24 hours postoperatively. RNA sequencing was used to screen the potential pain associated markers, and ELISA were used to analyze the expression of one identified marker, CXCR5 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).

Telerobotic surgery has undergone remarkable advances over the past two decades, driven by the integration of sophisticated robotic platforms and modern communication technologies, thereby alleviating many constraints of conventional surgical procedures. Building upon previous studies that focused on individual specialties or specific innovations, this review provides a comprehensive and integrated perspective by tracing the evolution of the field and highlighting applications in gastroenterology, urology, neurology, and cardiology. Landmark achievements include the 2001 transatlantic remote cholecystectomy and the introduction of next-generation platforms such as the Hinotori surgical robot, enabling low-latency remote interventions.

We describe a case of a 64-year-old obese woman with a history of severe acute cholecystitis and choledocholithias who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy in our clinic after endoscopic treatment by sphincterotomy and stent insertion. On the first operative day, a significant bile leakage of 400 ml appeared in the drainage. An immediate surgical revision was performed, starting by laparoscopy with conversion to open surgery.

Purpose: Cholelithiasis is associated with decreased risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), a bile acid used to dissolve cholesterol gallstones, has been shown to be retina-protective in several mouse models. This study sought to determine if UDCA may protect against AMD.
