Summary: This study aimed to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of biportal endoscopic with that of open microscopic discectomy in patients with single-level herniated lumbar discs. The results showed that there was no significant difference in pain and functional recovery between the biportal group and the microscopy group at the 12-month follow-up, indicating the non-inferiority of biportal endoscopic discectomy. The biportal group also had fewer surgery-related adverse events.

Summary: This study evaluated the effect of triamcinolone-impregnated absorbable nasal packing on healing following endoscopic sinus surgery. The results showed no significant difference in healing, crusting, polyps, edema, or secretions between the sinuses treated with triamcinolone and those without. Further studies will be needed to determine the impact of triamcinolone-impregnated absorbable packing following ESS.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of performing endoscopic sphincterotomy (ES) before biliary stent/tube placement on the occurrence of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis (PEP). The results showed that performing ES before biliary stent/tube placement could reduce the occurrence of PEP in patients with biliary stricture.

Summary: This study aimed to assess postoperative outcomes and validate the simple endoscopic score to predict Crohn's disease (CD) patients' disease-related outcomes. The findings showed that patients with colon-dominant disease had a higher risk of postoperative clinical recurrence, and SES-CD was effective in predicting postoperative clinical recurrence in CD patients.

Summary: The study showed that eliminating distal CS to LA connections can reduce atrial arrhythmia recurrences in patients undergoing first-time AF ablation. This strategy demonstrated potential efficacy in a small randomized study and warrants further evaluation in multicenter randomized trials.

Summary: This study found that prophylactic nocturnal administration of Dexmedetomidine significantly reduced the incidence of PICS following cardiac surgery, particularly reducing the occurrence of psychological impairments. However, this treatment was also associated with a higher rate of hypotension.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the optimal surveillance interval after colorectal cancer p-EMR treatment. The results showed no significant difference in recurrence detection between 6-month and 3-month surveillance intervals. A strict surveillance protocol of 6-, 12-, and 24-month follow-up post-EMR can reduce the surgical recurrence rate.

Summary: This study investigated the efficacy of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in reducing adhesion reformation in women with moderate to severe intrauterine adhesions (IUA). The results from a randomized controlled trial showed that intrauterine PRP infusion following hysteroscopic adhesiolysis could significantly reduce adhesion scores and lower the rate of adhesion reformation after surgery.
