Article Abstract
Minimally invasive liver surgery (MILS) offers several advantages over open liver surgery (OLS), but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study compares inflammatory marker levels between OLS and MILS and examines the impact of conversion. Patients undergoing liver resection at San Raffaele Hospital (September 2022-May 2023) were prospectively enrolled. Plasma inflammatory markers were measured over 120 postoperative hours and analyzed between cohorts. Among 118 liver resections (50 laparoscopic, 38 robotic, 30 open), the OLS group showed higher intraoperative plasma lactate (4.6 vs. 3.8 mmol/L; p < 0.04) and levels one hour postoperatively (3.9 vs. 2.4 mmol/L; p = 0.02). CRP and IL-6 levels were significantly higher in OLS (p < 0.001). No significant differences were found between laparoscopic and robotic approaches. However, conversion led to increased lactate (p = 0.018), CRP (p < 0.05), and IL-6 (p < 0.001) also compared with upfront OLS. MILS significantly improves biological markers as compared to OLS. However, conversion not only negates these benefits but also amplifies surgical stress and inflammation.

Background/aims: Ampullary adenomas are precancerous lesions requiring accurate diagnosis and timely intervention to prevent malignant transformation. Endoscopic papillectomy (EP) has emerged as a less invasive alternative to surgery; however, technical variations in practice remain. This study evaluated contemporary real-world approaches to the diagnosis, treatment, and surveillance of ampullary adenomas among pancreatobiliary endoscopists.

Background/aims: Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in hepatocytes plays a causative role in alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD). The incomplete inhibition of ER stress by targeting canonical ER stress sensor proteins suggests the existence of noncanonical ER stress pathways in ALD pathology. This study aimed to delineate the role of RAB25 in ALD and its regulatory mechanism in noncanonical ER stress pathways.

Diet regimes rich in fruits and vegetables have been adopted as effective strategies for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Here, we identified miR166e, a plant miRNA abundantly present in fruits and vegetables, as a functional agent that ameliorates T2DM in a mouse model. Orally administered miR166e oligomers passed through digestion, accumulated in the intestines at 14.

Background: Fontan-associated liver disease can progress to advanced fibrosis, raising the potential need for combined heart-liver transplantation (CHLT) in selected patients. However, the benefits of CHLT over isolated orthotopic heart transplantation (HT), particularly in terms of mortality, remain uncertain. In this systematic review, we compared mortality outcomes following CHLT versus HT in patients with Fontan circulation, with the aim of supporting clinical decision-making.

Background: Signet ring cell (SRC) colorectal cancer is strongly associated with peritoneal metastases (PM), but the role of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) remains uncertain due to poor prognosis. This study aimed to analyse the prognostic impact of SRCs, assess clinical characteristics, and evaluate the risk of open-close laparotomy.
Methods: This Swedish population-based study included patients with colorectal PM accepted for initial CRS and HIPEC at four national centres between 2010 and 2023.
