Abstract	Alternative reproductive tactics (ARTs) are discontinuous phenotypes associated with reproduction, observed in males of many species. Typically, large males adopt a tactic of competing with rivals for mating, while small males adopt a tactic of stealing fertilization opportunities from the large males. The 'birth date hypothesis', proposing that the date of birth influences the determination of each male's reproductive tactic, has been tested only in teleost fish to date. Here, the birth date hypothesis was tested in ARTs of Japanese spear squid

Abstract	Background: Most cases of cholesterol embolism are known to be triggered by cardiac catheterization, cardiovascular surgery, anticoagulation, or fibrinolytic therapy; however, spontaneous cases after aortic dissection are rare. In this report, we describe a case of cholesterol embolism after type B aortic dissection, which rapidly developed into multiple organ failure and death. Case summary: A 65-year-old man with untreated hypertension was admitted to our hospital with sudden back pain and diagnosed with type B aortic dissection. The patient experienced a rapid progression of inflammation and developed respiratory and renal failure, despite computed tomography showing no obvious progression of dissection. We attributed them to a cytokine storm and acute respiratory distress syndrome, but steroid pulse therapy did not alleviate the symptoms. Finally, the patient died on Day 6 after admission, and an autopsy was performed, which revealed cholesterol crystal occlusions in the kidney, spleen, and the left lower leg. The lumen in the aorta is filled with atheroma and thrombus, and we suspect that aortic dissection triggered failure of the aortic plaques and released cholesterol crystals to distal arteries that led to cholesterol embolism. Discussion: We experienced a patient with a type B aortic dissection that led to cholesterol embolism and rapid progression of respiratory and renal failure, resulting in death. The aortic dissection combined with cholesterol embolism was considered to trigger the subsequent severe inflammation, leading to rapid respiratory and renal failure. Our case points to the possibility that cholesterol embolism can extensively escalate inflammation after aortic dissection.

Abstract	Background: Transhiatal esophagectomy (THE) avoids thoracotomy but sacrifices mediastinal lymphadenectomy. Mediastinoscopy-assisted transhiatal esophagectomy (MATHE) allows for visualisation and en-bloc dissection of mediastinal lymph nodes while retaining the benefits of THE. However, given its novel inception, there is a paucity of literature. This study aimed to conduct the first meta-analysis to explore the efficacy of MATHE and clarify its role in the future of esophagectomy. Methods: Four databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, and Cochrane Library) were searched from inception to May 1, 2023. Studies were included if they reported outcomes for patients with esophageal cancer who underwent MATHE. Meta-analyses of proportions and pooled means were performed for the outcomes of intraoperative blood loss, lymph node (LN) harvest, mean hospital length of stay (LOS), mean operative time, R0 resection, conversion rates, 30-day mortality rate, 5-year OS, and surgical complications (anastomotic leak, cardiovascular [CVS] and pulmonary complications, chyle leak and recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy [RLN]). Sensitivity analyses were performed for outcomes with substantial statistical heterogeneity. Results: The search yielded 223 articles; 28 studies and 1128 patients were included in our analysis. Meta-analyses of proportions yielded proportion rates: 30-day mortality (0 %, 95 %CI 0-0), 5-year OS (60.5 %, 95 %CI 47.6-72.7), R0 resection (100 %, 95 %CI 99.3-100), conversion rate (0.1 %, 95 %CI 0-1.2). Among surgical complications, RLN palsy (14.6 %, 95 %CI 9.5-20.4) were most observed, followed by pulmonary complications (11.3 %, 95 %CI 7-16.2), anastomotic leak (9.7 %, 95 %CI 6.8-12.8), CVS complications (2.3 %, 95 %CI 0.9-4.1) and chyle leak (0.02 %, 95 %CI 0-0.8). Meta-analysis of pooled means yielded means: LN harvest (18.6, 95 %CI 14.3-22.9), intraoperative blood loss (247.1 ml, 95 %CI 173.6-320.6), hospital LOS (18.1 days, 95 %CI 14.4-21.8), and operative time (301.5 min, 95 %CI 238.4-364.6). There was moderate-to-high statistical heterogeneity. Findings were robust to sensitivity analyses. Conclusion: MATHE is associated with encouraging post-operative mortality and complication rates, while allowing for radical mediastinal lymphadenectomy with reasonable lymph node harvest.

Abstract	Objective: Although open repair has been the traditional mainstay therapy for thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs), it remains a surgical challenge. Recently, hybrid repair (HR) and total endovascular repair (TEVR) have emerged as viable alternatives in treating TAAAs. Thus, we aimed to compare the primary outcomes of in-hospital/30-day mortality, as well as secondary outcomes of postoperative complications including spinal cord ischemia, bowel ischemia, long-term dialysis, myocardial infarction and lower limb ischemia for HR vs TEVR for the treatment of TAAAs. We postulated that TEVR was associated with lower in-hospital and 30-day mortality and postoperative complication rates as compared with HR. Methods: Four scientific databases were searched from inception to November 18, 2021. Meta-analyses were performed for the primary and secondary outcomes. This study was conducted in adherence to the PRISMA guidelines. Results: The search yielded 3312 articles. After a two-stage selection process, five articles were included for final analysis. The in-hospital/30-day mortality rate for TEVR was significantly lower compared with HR (odds ratio [OR], 0.27; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.20-0.36; P < .00001). TEVR was also associated with reduced bowel ischemia (OR, 0.22; 95% CI, 0.14 -0.35; P < .00001) and long-term dialysis (OR, 0.22; 95% CI, 0.16-0.29; P < .00001). There was, however, no difference in the incidence of spinal cord ischemia (OR, 1.26; 95% CI, 0.74-2.14; P = .39), stroke (OR, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.10-4.20; P = .65), myocardial infarction (OR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.17-2.05; P = .41), and lower limb ischemia (OR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.29-1.55; P = .35). Most study outcomes had low heterogeneity. Findings were also robust to sensitivity analysis. Conclusions: Compared with the HR, TEVR of TAAAs were associated with lower in-hospital and 30-day mortality, bowel ischemia, and long-term dialysis.

Abstract	Background: Currently, the outcomes of standard-of-care palliative treatment for BCLM remain poor. Recent literature has shown promising results of hepatic resection, however, not all studies concur. Given the lack of standardized international guidelines in this field, the aim of this study is to provide gold-standard evidence for breast cancer liver metastases (BCLM) through a reconstructed individual patient data meta-analysis approach. Methods: Four databases were searched for articles comparing surgical and non-surgical treatment for BCLM. One-stage meta-analysis was performed using patient-level survival data reconstructed from Kaplan-Meier curves with plot digitizer software. Shared-frailty and stratified Cox models were fitted to compare survival endpoints. Results: Four propensity-score matched (PSM) studies involving 205 surgical and 291 non-surgical patients for BCLM were included. There was a significant difference between both groups for overall survival (OS) (Hazard Ratio [HR] = 0.40, 95%CI 0.32-0.51). Sensitivity analyses for hormone receptor status of breast cancer (HR = 0.41, 95%CI 0.31-0.55) and type of resection performed (HR = 0.45, 95%CI 0.33-0.61) yielded HRs in favor of surgery. Conclusions: This meta-analysis concludes that surgery offers superior OS outcomes, compared to non-surgery, in a select group of patients. Future randomized controlled trials and PSM studies are warranted, using this study as a point of reference for similar parameters.

Abstract	Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) of the lung is an extremely rare tumor, and a standard chemotherapy has not been established. Furthermore, little work has been conducted on the genetic characteristics of MEC. We herein report the case of a 42-year-old nonsmoking male patient who was referred to our hospital due to cough. Chest computed tomography demonstrated infiltration and atelectasis in the right lower lobe. He was eventually diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with MEC differentiation corresponding to clinical stage IVA (cT4N2M1a[PLE]). Genetic testing for EGFR mutations was negative, but positive for anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) fusion gene. After 2 weeks of first-line treatment with alectinib, the tumor decreased in size and his symptoms improved. Advanced MEC is a rare tumor, and reports on the treatment of ALK-positive NSCLC with MEC differentiation are rare.

Abstract	Rationale: Pulmonary pleomorphic carcinoma is a rare tumor with a poor prognosis and has no standard chemotherapy. We herein report a case of small intestinal metastasis of pulmonary pleomorphic carcinoma that resulted in intestinal bleeding and was successfully treated with pembrolizumab monotherapy. Patient concerns: A 54-year-old man with a history of pulmonary pleomorphic carcinoma resection was referred to our hospital due to a 1-month history of a fever and general fatigue. Diagnosis: Laboratory investigation revealed microcytic anemia. Hematochezia was also noted after admission. Computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET)/CT at the time of this admission revealed intraperitoneal masses alongside the small intestine with no significant ascites. Interventions: Pembrolizumab (400 mg/body) was introduced as the first-line chemotherapy. Outcomes: By the 15th day after the initial pembrolizumab administration, the fever had disappeared, and the intraperitoneal masses were markedly reduced. Hematochezia had also disappeared, and he no longer needed to receive blood transfusions. Lessons: To our knowledge, this is the first report in which small intestinal metastasis of pulmonary pleomorphic carcinoma was successfully controlled by pembrolizumab monotherapy. Immune checkpoint inhibitors may be promising therapeutic agents against pulmonary pleomorphic carcinoma.
