    Abstract In the literature, midgut volvulus is a well-known surgical complication following gastric bypass surgery that is serious and necessitates an immediate intervention. Here, we report a case of internal herniation that was misdiagnosed twice but eventually managed appropriately. A 27-year-old male with a surgical history of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass came to the emergency department complaining of severe epigastric abdominal pain. Two months earlier, he had a similar pain which was treated with

    Abstract Introduction Surgical procedures present substantial healthcare costs, patient discomfort, and potential adverse outcomes. In response, enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols have emerged as comprehensive, evidence-based preoperative care pathways designed to optimize preoperative, intra-operative, and postoperative management. These protocols incorporate various interventions, such as preoperative education, nutritional optimization, minimally invasive techniques, multimodal pain management, early mobilization, and patient engagement. Despite their global success and growing popularity, the adoption and influence of ERAS protocols in Saudi Arabia have not been extensively explored. This study aims to assess the ERAS effects on surgical outcomes and evaluate its relationship with patient satisfaction, considering factors such as cost-effectiveness and compliance in the Saudi context. Methods This cross-sectional study encompassed data collection from 1,452 patients who underwent surgical procedures such as bariatric surgery and cholecystectomy, employing systematic random sampling across multiple healthcare facilities in Saudi Arabia. Data were gathered through structured questionnaires, medical records, and cost-effectiveness analysis within the period spanning from January to August 2023. The relationship between ERAS protocol implementation, surgical outcomes, patient satisfaction, and cost-effectiveness was analyzed using statistical tests, including correlation, regression analysis, and chi-square tests. A statistical significance threshold was set at p < 0.05, and Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS, version 28.0) (IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Armonk, NY) was used for data analysis. Results Among the 1,452 respondents, 1,152 (79.3%) reported the implementation of ERAS protocols during their surgical procedures. Those receiving ERAS protocols exhibited significantly lower rates of surgical complications, readmissions, and reduced dependency on pain medication (p < 0.001). Additionally, participants subjected to ERAS protocols reported significantly higher satisfaction levels based on the mean satisfaction scale score, with a p-value of less than 0.001. Conclusion The results highlight substantial improvements associated with the implementation of ERAS protocols, particularly in terms of reduced surgical site infections, shortened hospitalization periods, and decreased pain management-related complications. Moreover, ERAS protocol implementation demonstrated enhanced surgical outcomes, increased postoperative satisfaction, and overall improved recovery experiences. These findings underscore the potential benefits of integrating ERAS protocols into the surgical practices of Saudi Arabia. This research contributes to a better understanding of the advantages offered by ERAS protocols and their potential for enhancing healthcare delivery in the region.

    Abstract EBV latent membrane protein 1 (LMP-1) is an important oncogene involved in the induction and maintenance of EBV infection and the activation of several cell survival and proliferative pathways. The genetic diversity of LMP-1 has an important role in immunogenicity and tumorigenicity allowing escape from host cell immunity and more metastatic potential of LMP-1 variants. This study explored the evolutionary of LMP-1 in EBV-infected patients at an advanced stage of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Detection of genetic variability in LMP-1 genes was carried out using Sanger sequencing. Bioinformatic analysis was conducted for translation and nucleotide alignment. Phylogenetic analysis was used to construct a Bayesian tree for a deeper understanding of the genetic relationships, evolutionary connections, and variations between sequences. Genetic characterization of LMP-1 in NPC patients revealed the detection of polymorphism in LMP-1 Sequences. Motifs were identified within three critical LMP-1 domains, such as PQQAT within CTAR1 and YYD within CTAR2. The presence of the JACK3 region at specific sites within CTAR3, as well as repeat regions at positions (122-132) and (133-143) within CTAR3, was also annotated. Additionally, several mutations were detected including 30 and 69 bp deletions, 33 bp repeats, and 15 bp insertion. Although LMP-1 strains appear to be genetically diverse, they are closely related to 3 reference strains: prototype B95.8, Med- 30 bp deletion, and Med + 30 bp deletion. In our study, one of the strains harboring the 30 bp deletion had both bone and bone marrow metastasis which could be attributed to the fact that LMP-1 is involved in tumor metastasis, evasion and migration of NPC cells. This study provided valuable insights into genetic variability in LMP-1 sequences of EBV in NPC patients. Further functional studies would provide a more comprehensive understanding of the molecular characteristics, epidemiology, and clinical implications of LMP-1 polymorphisms in EBV-related malignancies.

    Abstract Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) is implicated in the carcinogenesis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and currently associated with at least 1% of global cancers. The differential prognosis analysis of NPC in EBV genotypes remains to be elucidated. Medical, radiological, pathological, and laboratory reports of 146 NPC patients were collected retrospectively over a 6-year period between 2015 and 2020. From the pathology archives, DNA was extracted from tumor blocks and used for EBV nuclear antigen 3C (EBNA-3C) genotyping by nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR). We found a high prevalence of 96% of EBV infection in NPC patients with a predominance of genotype I detected in 73% of NPC samples. Histopathological examination showed that most of the NPC patients were in the advanced stages of cancer: stage III (38.4%) or stage IV-B (37.7%). Only keratinized squamous cell carcinoma was significantly higher in EBV negative NPC patients compared with those who were EBV positive (OR = 0.01, 95%CI = (0.004-0.32;

    Abstract Citrate synthase (CS) is a key mitochondrial enzyme. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that low CS activity impairs the metabolic health of mice fed a high fat diet (HFD) and promotes palmitate-induced lipotoxicity in muscle cells. C57BL/6J (B6) mice and congenic B6.A-(rs3676616-D10Utsw1)/KjnB6 (B6.A), a strain which carries the A/J allele of CS on the B6 strain background, were fed HFD (45% kcal from fat) for 12 weeks. C2C12 mouse muscle cells were used to investigate effects of CS knockdown on cell viability and signalling after incubation in 0.8 mM palmitate. CS activity, but not that of β-hydroxyacyl-coenzyme-A dehydrogenase was lower in the gastrocnemius muscle and heart of B6.A mice compared to B6 mice (P<0.001). During HFD feeding, glucose tolerance of mice decreased progressively and to a greater extent in B6.A females compared to B6 females, with males showing a similar trend. Body weight and fat gain did not differ between B6.A and B6 mice. After an 18 h incubation in 0.8 mM palmitate C2C12 muscle cells with ∼50% shRNA mediated reduction in CS activity showed lower (P<0.001) viability and increased (P<0.001) levels of cleaved caspase-3 compared to the scramble shRNA treated C2C12 cells. A/J strain variant of CS is associated with low enzyme activity and impaired metabolic health. This could be due to impaired lipid metabolism in muscle cells.
