Integrating Simulation-Based Anatomy and Operative Skills Training for Medical Students: A Narrative Review
type: item
description: Contemporary surgical practice demands that graduating medical students possess not only sound anatomical knowledge but also foundational operative skills acquired in a safe, structured learning environment. Traditional cadaveric dissection has long been central to anatomy education and early surgical training; however, growing constraints on theatre exposure, work‑hour limitations, and patient safety concerns have accelerated the adoption of simulation‑based approaches. Recent evidence shows that simulation modalities ranging from low‑fidelity bench models and three‑dimensional (3D)‑printed organs to high‑fidelity virtual reality (VR) systems can enhance anatomical understanding, suturing performance, and overall technical proficiency among medical students. Studies comparing cadaveric and simulator‑based training highlight that cadavers remain the gold standard for appreciating realistic tissue handling and complex three‑dimensional relationships, whereas simulators offer repeatability, structured feedback, and risk‑free practice.

Gut Microbiota–Targeted Therapy as an Emerging Adjunct in Endometriosis Management: A Narrative Review
type: item
description: Endometriosis is now recognized as a chronic, systemic inflammatory disorder affecting an estimated one in ten women of reproductive age worldwide and imposing a substantial burden on pain, fertility and quality of life. Emerging evidence indicates that dysbiosis of the gut microbiota contributes to endometriosis pathogenesis by modulating estrogen metabolism, immune activation and systemic inflammation, creating a new therapeutic frontier focused on microbiome-targeted interventions. This narrative review synthesizes recent data on gut–endometriosis interactions and evaluates the potential of microecological therapies—including probiotics, prebiotics and fecal microbiota transplantation—as adjuncts to established surgical and hormonal treatments. Experimental models and early clinical studies suggest that selected Lactobacillus-based probiotics and broader microecological regimens can reduce inflammatory cytokines, attenuate lesion growth and improve postoperative recovery when combined with laparoscopy.

Impact of a Simple Preoperative Preventive Care Bundle on Early Postoperative Complications in Gastrointestinal Surgery
type: item
description: Background: Postoperative complications after gastrointestinal surgery worsen outcomes but are influenced by modifiable risk factors; prehabilitation, smoking cessation, and optimization of nutrition and perioperative care may reduce morbidity and improve recovery. Methods: In a prospective cohort of 50 adults undergoing major GI surgery at the Surgery‑2 Department, Fergana Emergency Medical Center, a preventive bundle (preoperative counseling, smoking cessation advice, nutritional screening, early mobilization, early oral intake) was implemented and patients were followed for 30 days; primary outcome was any complication (Clavien–Dindo ≥II), with secondary outcomes including length of stay, postoperative ileus, surgical site infection, and 30‑day readmission. Results: Median age was 56 years; 60% were male, 30% active smokers, and 40% at nutritional risk; overall, 28% developed complications, with severe events in 8%, ileus in 12%, and surgical site infection in 10%, and median postoperative stay was 7 days. Patients adherent to ≥3 bundle components had fewer complications (20% vs 38%) and shorter stays (6 vs 9 days) than less adherent patients. Conclusions: A simple, low‑cost preventive care bundle combining prehabilitation‑like elements and enhanced recovery measures was feasible in this resource‑limited GI surgery unit and was associated with fewer complications and shorter hospitalization among adherent patients, supporting the need for larger controlled studies.

Structural and Clinical Characterization of Gynecomastia: A Cross-Sectional Analysis of Histopathological Patterns, Hormonal Profiles, and Surgical Outcomes
type: item
description: Background: Gynecomastia is the most common male breast condition, yet studies integrating histopathological features with hormonal and clinical parameters remain limited. This study evaluated gynostructural characteristics in relation to clinical grade, hormonal profiles, and surgical outcomes. Methods: A cross-sectional study of 186 males with true gynecomastia who underwent surgical excision was conducted (2020–2024). Specimens were classified as florid, intermediate, or fibrous. Preoperative hormonal profiles and postoperative satisfaction were assessed. Results: Fibrous type predominated (48.9%). Estradiol (p < 0.001) and testosterone (p = 0.003) differed significantly across histopathological types. Clinical grade correlated with histopathological pattern (χ² = 24.87, p < 0.001). Liposuction-assisted mastectomy yielded higher satisfaction than open excision (8.6 vs. 7.5; p = 0.002). Psychological function improved postoperatively (median 42 → 71; p < 0.001). Conclusion: Gynostructural features correlate with disease duration, hormonal milieu, and clinical severity, supporting integrated histopathological-hormonal assessment for individualized management.

Artificial Intelligence in Orthodontics: From Cephalometric Analysis to Predictive Aligner Therapy — A Focused Review
type: item
description: Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming orthodontic practice, moving the specialty from experience-based decision-making toward data-driven, personalized treatment planning. This focused review synthesizes recent evidence (2023–2026) on three core AI applications in orthodontics: automated cephalometric landmark detection, malocclusion classification and treatment decision support, and predictive modeling for clear aligner tooth movement. Deep learning frameworks, notably multimodal architectures that fuse lateral cephalograms, CBCT volumes and digital dental models, now achieve mean radial errors of 1.21 mm for landmark detection—a 13% improvement over single-modality methods—with clinical acceptability rates exceeding 92% at the 2 mm threshold. AI-based malocclusion screening using intraoral photographs demonstrates AUC values ranging from 0.73 to 0.92 depending on the classification task, with deep bite detection showing the highest accuracy. In aligner therapy, AI-assisted treatment planning achieves prediction accuracy of 88–92% for incisor movements, though rotational and intrusive movements remain less reliable. Despite promising performance metrics, barriers including limited training datasets, lack of prospective multicenter validation, regulatory uncertainty and integration challenges restrict routine clinical deployment. This review evaluates the current state of AI in orthodontics, critically appraises the quality and generalizability of existing evidence, and identifies priorities for translating AI from research tool to clinical standard.

They lower activation energy by stabilizing transition states and creating optimized microenvironments within defined active sites, enabling reaction rates that can be millions-fold faster than uncatalyzed reactions while remaining tightly regulated in time and space. Modern enzymology integrates structural biology, kinetics, and protein dynamics to explain how conformational motions contribute to catalysis, substrate specificity, and allosteric regulation. This article reviews the classification of enzymes, principles of catalysis and kinetics, mechanisms of regulation, and emerging applications in biotechnology and medicine, highlighting how dynamic protein architectures translate chemical principles into robust biological function. Understanding these molecular machines informs rational drug design, biomarker development, and engineering of tailored biocatalysts for industry and personalized medicine.

Biochemical Roles of Liver Enzymes in Hepatocellular Injury and Cholestasis
type: item
description: Liver enzymes are central biochemical markers that reflect hepatocyte integrity, bile formation, and synthetic capacity, making them indispensable in both clinical practice and hepatology research. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) are aminotransferases involved in amino-group transfer during gluconeogenesis and amino acid metabolism, and their leakage into blood primarily indicates hepatocellular injury rather than liver function per se., In contrast, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and gamma‑glutamyl transferase (GGT) are membrane-associated enzymes enriched in bile canaliculi and biliary epithelium, and their elevation points to cholestasis or biliary tract pathology., This article summarizes the biochemistry, tissue distribution, and clinical interpretation of liver enzymes, highlights patterns that distinguish hepatocellular from cholestatic injury, and discusses their limitations as surrogate markers of disease severity and prognosis.

Recent Advances in Dexmedetomidine for Paediatric Sedation
type: item
description: Dexmedetomidine has transitioned from an off‑label adjunct to a central agent in paediatric sedation, especially for procedural, MRI, and intensive care indications,, –. Recent randomized trials, meta‑analyses, and pharmacologic reviews show that dexmedetomidine provides cooperative, arousable sedation with minimal respiratory depression, reduced emergence agitation, and improved perioperative behaviour compared with conventional sedatives, while bradycardia and hypotension remain the main dose‑related adverse effects,,,. High‑dose monotherapy regimens now achieve MRI completion without rescue propofol in a majority of children, and intranasal formulations broaden use in emergency and diagnostic settings by avoiding intravenous access,,. Ongoing systematic reviews of intranasal dexmedetomidine and evolving pharmacokinetic modelling aim to refine age‑specific dosing and clarify long‑term safety,. This article summarizes recent advances in routes, dosing, indications, and safety considerations that are reshaping dexmedetomidine‑based sedation in paediatric practice.

Evolving Management of Adhesive Small Bowel Obstruction in Paediatric Surgery
type: item
description: Adhesive small bowel obstruction (ASBO) is a frequent late complication of paediatric abdominal surgery and an important cause of morbidity, repeated admissions, and re‑operations in children. Recent paediatric data suggest that most haemodynamically stable children without signs of strangulation can be safely managed non‑operatively, although a significant minority will eventually require timely surgery,,. Adult‑derived protocols using water‑soluble contrast have transformed ASBO decision‑making, but emerging paediatric studies show that enteral contrast may not reduce operative rates or length of stay to the same extent in children,. Laparoscopic adhesiolysis is increasingly used in selected paediatric patients and appears to reduce complications and length of stay compared with laparotomy, but carries a higher risk of bowel injury in difficult cases and remains underused in very young children,,,. This article reviews current evidence on conservative versus operative management, decision‑making tools, and minimally invasive approaches for paediatric ASBO, highlighting areas where adult practice cannot be directly extrapolated.

Emerging Pharmacological Treatments for Major Depressive Disorder: A Narrative Review of Clinical Trials from 2023 to 2025
type: item
description: Major depressive disorder (MDD) remains a leading cause of global disability, affecting approximately 332 million individuals worldwide. Despite decades of monoaminergic antidepressant use, up to 60% of patients fail to achieve adequate remission with first-line therapies. This narrative review examines clinical trial evidence published between 2023 and 2025 for novel and emerging pharmacological treatments targeting non-monoaminergic pathways, including NMDA receptor antagonists (esketamine, dextromethorphan–bupropion, esmethadone), GABA-A receptor modulators (zuranolone), serotonergic psychedelics (psilocybin/COMP360), and kappa-opioid receptor antagonists (aticaprant). Efficacy outcomes are compared across drug classes using MADRS and HAM-D scales. The ESCAPE-TRD trial demonstrated esketamine's superiority over quetiapine in treatment-resistant depression (TRD), while psilocybin showed clinically meaningful sustained effects in phase 2 and phase 3 studies. Zuranolone received FDA approval for postpartum depression. Kappa-opioid antagonists showed promise in phase 2 but failed phase 3 endpoints. A tabular comparison of efficacy by drug class is provided. These findings illustrate a paradigm shift from serotonin-centric models toward rapid-acting, mechanism-driven interventions for depression.

Divergent Injury Pathways in Neonatal Intestine and Kidney: Quantitative Morphology of Necrotizing Enterocolitis and Multicystic Dysplastic Kidney
type: item
description: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) are leading neonatal entities that exemplify acute inflammatory necrosis versus chronic developmental disorganization on histology. Contemporary grading systems for NEC now quantify depth and extent of intestinal injury, ranging from mucosa‑limited changes to transmural necrosis, and can be complemented by weighted, cumulative point scores capturing subtle mucosal lesions., In parallel, recent series of MCDK describe a histomorphological spectrum defined by primitive ducts with mesenchymal collars, cyst burden, and heterologous elements, with semi‑quantitative assessments of residual parenchyma and later autoinvolution. This article integrates classic pattern‑based descriptions with simplified ordinal scoring to compare tissue injury in NEC and MCDK, illustrated by a bar graph that contrasts histologic severity categories across both diseases. The resulting framework underscores how quantitative morphology can refine diagnosis, prognostication, and study design in neonatal intestinal and renal pathology.

Pathomorphological Changes after Intramuscular Injection: From Acute Needle Myopathy to Chronic Fibrous Contracture
type: item
description: Intramuscular (IM) injection is a ubiquitous procedure in clinical medicine, yet it induces a characteristic sequence of muscle and soft‑tissue pathomorphological changes that range from microscopic “needle myopathy” to disabling fibrous contractures.,,,, Experimental toxin models show that acute IM injury begins with myofiber necrosis, edema, and inflammatory cell influx, followed by activation of satellite cells and regeneration with central nucleation., In routine therapeutic injections, similar but usually milder lesions occur, with local myonecrosis and low‑grade inflammatory infiltrates even when normal saline is administered, and are amplified by myotoxic drugs such as local anesthetics, some NSAIDs, and certain biologics.,, Repeated or improperly sited injections can drive chronic fibrosis, collagen deposition, and muscle shortening, leading to gluteal or deltoid contractures, joint deformity, and occasionally nerve entrapment or sciatic injury.,,,, This review summarizes the temporal and structural spectrum of IM‑induced pathomorphology in skeletal muscle, subcutaneous tissue, and adjacent neurovascular structures, and compares acute necrotic–regenerative lesions with chronic fibrosing myopathy.

AI Enhanced Early Detection of Postoperative Complications: Comparing Traditional, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning Surveillance Models
type: item
description: Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used not only to predict, but also to monitor and detect early complications after surgery, using diverse data streams such as electronic health records, vital signs, wearable sensors, and imaging,,. Machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) models can outperform traditional logistic regression and rule‑based systems in discriminating patients at risk of sepsis, pneumonia, surgical site infection (SSI), and mortality, while substantially reducing manual surveillance workload,,. Large, multi‑center neural network models that combine structured and unstructured data (e.g., 3.5 million surgical encounters) demonstrate rapid, multi‑outcome prediction, and specialized SSI‑prediction platforms show AUC values approaching 0.99 in focused cohorts,,. This article reviews AI models for early post‑surgical complication analysis, compares traditional, ML, and DL approaches, and visualizes relative performance and workload impact using a summary table and dual pie charts.

AI Driven Analysis of Postoperative Complications: Transforming Surgical Outcomes Through Predictive, Text Based, and Wound Imaging Tools
type: item
description: Artificial intelligence (AI) has rapidly emerged as a powerful tool to analyze, predict, and detect complications after surgical interventions, leveraging large volumes of perioperative data that are difficult for humans to process alone,,. Machine learning models built on electronic health records, vital signs, intraoperative signals, imaging, clinical notes, and wound photographs can identify patients at high risk for postoperative complications such as sepsis, acute kidney injury, pneumonia, and mortality, with performance that matches or surpasses traditional risk scores and clinicians in several studies,,. Foundation models and large language models that specifically analyze surgical notes further enhance complication prediction and generalizability across settings, while AI‑based wound‑image analysis enables earlier detection of wound problems and prioritization of follow‑up,,. This article reviews key AI tools for postoperative complication analysis, outlines their methodologies, summarizes clinical performance, and discusses integration into perioperative workflows and future directions.
