    Abstract Background: Real-time prediction of the remaining surgery duration (RSD) is important for optimal scheduling of resources in the operating room.
    Methods: We focus on the intraoperative prediction of RSD from laparoscopic video. An extensive evaluation of seven common deep learning models, a proposed one based on the Transformer architecture (TransLocal) and four baseline approaches, is presented. The proposed pipeline includes a CNN-LSTM for feature extraction from salient regions within short video segments and a Transformer with local attention mechanisms.
    Results: Using the Cholec80 dataset, TransLocal yielded the best performance (mean absolute error (MAE) = 7.1 min). For long and short surgeries, the MAE was 10.6 and 4.4 min, respectively. Thirty minutes before the end of surgery MAE = 6.2 min, 7.2 and 5.5 min for all long and short surgeries, respectively.
    Conclusions: The proposed technique achieves state-of-the-art results. In the future, we aim to incorporate intraoperative indicators and pre-operative data.

    Abstract Diverticulitis in a solitary transverse colon diverticulum is uncommon, with only a handful of cases documented in the literature. There are various clinical manifestations of the disease, which make clinical and radiological diagnosis rather challenging. Herein, we present a case of a premenopausal female patient in her late 40s who presented to the emergency department, complaining of right lower quadrant abdominal pain, nausea, anorexia and fever. Following clinical, biochemical and radiological tests, the patient was prepared for surgical operation, with the presumed diagnosis of acute appendicitis. An appendicectomy was planned via a McBurney incision. Notably, no inflammation of the appendix was discovered. However, on further exploration, an inflammatory mass was identified in the transverse colon, which was subsequently excised and sent for histological examination. The histology results confirmed the presence of a ruptured solitary transverse colon diverticulum, accompanied by an adjacent mesenteric abscess. The patient's postoperative recovery was uneventful.

    Abstract Background: Trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (TROP-2) is a transmembrane glycoprotein expressed in epithelial cells that has been associated with malignant progression in most carcinomas. Accordingly, the genetic complexity of gastrointestinal tumors necessitates the investigation of new biomarkers with potential prognostic value. The aim of this systematic review is to assess the effect of TROP-2 on the overall survival of patients who underwent surgery for gastrointestinal malignancy.
    Methods: The present systematic review was designed using the PRISMA and AMSTAR guidelines. We searched the Pubmed, EMBASE and CENTRAL databases from their inception to September 2023.
    Results: Ten studies that enrolled 2293 patients were included for qualitative analysis. Six studies evaluated patients with colorectal cancer, two studies included patients with gastric carcinoma, patients with pancreatic cancer were included in one study and one study included hepatobiliary cancer patients. TROP-2 was positive in 1005/2293 samples of the immunohistochemically evaluated biopsies and was associated with poor overall survival in all studies. High intensity was also associated with more aggressive histopathological characteristics, such us deep tissue invasion, lymph node metastasis and cell atypia. The prognostic value of TROP-2 was shown to be enhanced in patients with advanced disease and poor histological differentiation.
    Conclusion: TROP-2 was expressed at high levels in gastrointestinal tumors, which was associated with both tumor development and pathological aggressiveness. Therefore, TROP-2 could be used as a biomarker to determine clinical prognosis and as a potential therapeutic target in malignancies of the gastrointestinal tract, but further studies need to validate it.

    Abstract The present review demonstrates the major tumor suppressor genes, including TP53, CDKN2A and SMAD4, associated with pancreatic cancer. Each gene's role, prevalence and impact on tumor development and progression are analyzed, focusing on the intricate molecular landscape of pancreatic cancer. In addition, this review underscores the prognostic significance of specific mutations, such as loss of TP53, and explores some potential targeted therapies tailored to these molecular signatures. The findings highlight the importance of genomic analyses for risk assessment, early detection and the design of personalized treatment approaches in pancreatic cancer. Overall, this review provides a comprehensive analysis of the molecular intricacies of pancreatic tumors, paving the way for more effective and tailored therapeutic interventions.

    Abstract Atherosclerosis is driven by a diverse range of cellular and molecular processes. In the present study, we sought to better understand how statins mitigate proatherogenic inflammation. 48 male New Zealand rabbits were divided into eight groups, each including 6 animals. The control groups received normal chow for 90 and 120 days. Three groups underwent a hypercholesterolemic diet (HCD) for 30, 60, and 90 days. Another three groups underwent HCD for 3 months, followed by normal chow for one month, with or without rosuvastatin or fluvastatin. The cytokine and chemokine expressions were assessed in the samples of thoracic and abdominal aorta. Rosuvastatin significantly reduced MYD88, CCL4, CCL20, CCR2, TNF-α, IFN-β, IL-1b, IL-2, IL-4, IL-8, and IL-10, both in the thoracic and abdominal aorta. Fluvastatin also downregulated MYD88, CCR2, IFN-β, IFN-γ, IL-1b, IL-2, IL-4, and IL-10 in both aortic segments. Rosuvastatin curtailed the expression of CCL4, IFN-β, IL-2, IL-4, and IL-10 more effectively than fluvastatin in both types of tissue. MYD88, TNF-α, IL-1b, and IL-8 showed a stronger downregulation with rosuvastatin compared to fluvastatin only in the thoracic aorta. The CCL20 and CCR2 levels reduced more extensively with rosuvastatin treatment only in abdominal aortic tissue. In conclusion, statin therapy can halt proatherogenic inflammation in hyperlipidemic animals. Rosuvastatin may be more effective in downregulating MYD88 in atherosclerotic thoracic aortas.
