Very interesting and thorough review from @uchicagosurgery on how the #Microbiome impacts #ColorectalCancer recurrence after surgery.

IMHO this is a must-read for anyone who cares for CRC patients.

In the future, will we be successfully targeted and manipulating the microbiome for the prevention and treatment of colorectal cancer?

Anastomotic leak after colorectal surgery: current landscape and future directions
➡️ https://t.co/JhVNo8RuJQ

🔗 Anastomotic leak remains one of the most feared complications after colorectal surgery, with major consequences including sepsis, reoperation, permanent stoma, and poorer oncological outcomes
📊 Leak rates remain substantial despite modern care: 3–6% after ileocolic anastomoses and up to 10–20% after low colorectal anastomoses
🧬 Anastomotic healing is multifactorial, involving surgical technique, perfusion, host immune response, and the gut microbiome
💡 ICG fluorescence angiography may improve perfusion assessment, particularly in rectal cancer surgery, but standardized quantitative thresholds are still needed
🦠 The microbiome is emerging as a key contributor, with collagenase-producing bacteria potentially weakening the anastomosis
🎯 Future prevention will likely require personalized risk stratification and targeted interventions rather than a one-size-fits-all approach

Metabolic Bariatric Surgery is a powerful tool but long-term success depends on daily habits. 🌿
After MBS, nutrition isn’t just about eating less: it’s about enough protein, preventing deficiencies, protecting muscle mass, and building sustainable habits.

Can we improve adenoma detection with better bowel preparation? 🔍 #TealJournal

Adding prucalopride to a 2-L split-dose PEG regimen led to:
📈 Higher ADRs
📈 Higher PDRs
🧹 Superior bowel cleansing across colonic segments
✅ No serious adverse events

🚀 ICN CEO @HowardCatton was proud to support the launch of @TheLancet MedZero: Health Data for Climate Action, a new global initiative that allows clinicians and health leaders to access carbon emissions data for thousands of health care products and procedures, from syringes and scalpels to chest X-rays and pharmaceuticals.

The launch, hosted by The Lancet, brought together global partners including the Philippines, University of Singapore, Thailand, the United Kingdom, and Médecins Sans Frontières, highlighting the power of collaboration in driving climate-smart health care.

Quinoa:

With 8 grams of protein per cup, it’s a nutritional powerhouse. Quinoa is one of the few plants that contain a complete protein. This grain is also gluten-free and is a good source of iron.

Amaranth:

This tiny seed contains all essential amino acids, making it a plant source of complete protein. It’s also gluten-free.

Polenta:

Polenta made from organic corn is a good source of vitamin C and a pair of antioxidant carotenoids (lutein and zeaxanthin). And it’s yet another gluten-free option!

Kamut:

This ancient wheat is higher in protein, selenium, zinc and magnesium than modern wheat.

Millet:

Millet is high in fiber, iron, B vitamins, manganese, phosphorus and magnesium, while also being gluten-free.

Buckwheat:

You’ll get all nine essential amino acids, including lysine and arginine. Plus, it’s a very good source of manganese, while also packing ample amounts of copper, magnesium, fiber and phosphorus. And despite “wheat” in its name, buckwheat is actually wheat-free and gluten-free!

Brown rice:

Brown rice is a solid source of manganese, as well as selenium, phosphorus, copper, magnesium and niacin.

STOP SCROLLING. You need to read this—this is your sign to stop putting yourself last. 👇

“I’ll focus on me later.”

After the wedding.

After the kids are older.

After work calms down.

After the holidays…

Later becomes next year….

Next year becomes next decade…

And suddenly… it’s too late to ignore.

Because your body isn’t waiting.

After 30, you’re losing muscle every year.

Bone density is declining.

Hormones are shifting.

Energy is dropping.

All of it happening quietly… while you’re busy taking care of everyone else.

Here’s the part no one tells you:

You don’t need hours in the gym.

You don’t need the “perfect” plan.

You don’t need more time.

You need:
✔️ 20–30 minutes
✔️ 2–3x per week- emphasize strength training
✔️ Protein at your meals
✔️ A walk after dinner
✔️ Sleep before midnight

That’s enough to completely change your next 30 years.

This isn’t selfish.

It’s the difference between:
Aging with strength…
Or slowly losing it

Your kids don’t need a mom who does everything.

They need a mom who is strong, healthy, and still here for the long run. 🩷

Start messy.

Start tired.

Start today.

Because “later” sounds harmless…
until it becomes years.

In the STITCH trial, small-bites fascial closure for elective midline laparotomy was associated w/ reduced long-term incidence and size of incisional hernias vs large-bites closure. At 13 years, cumulative incidence and width of hernias >20 mm were lower w/ small-bites technique.

Melatonin in Circadian Rhythm and Brain Health: Neuroprotective Effects and Therapeutic Potential

▶️ Melatonin is an indole-like hormone secreted by the pineal gland. It regulates circadian rhythms & exerts antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, tumor-suppressing, & sleep-enhancing effects.

✅️ This review synthesizes the evidence on melatonin in circadian rhythm regulation, Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury, depression, insomnia, brain aging, & its dietary applications.
