diography measurements. Moreover, the significant decrease in the systolic pulmonary artery pressure value and E/e's ratio following septoplasty indicated that negative echocardiographic findings may be prevented by this surgery.
The decrease in NOSE scores following septoplasty indicated that the satisfaction levels of the patients were increased. Upper airway obstruction secondary to nasal septal deviation may be a cardiovascular risk factor and may affect transthoracic echocardiography measurements. Moreover, the significant decrease in the systolic pulmonary artery pressure value and E/e's ratio following septoplasty indicated that negative echocardiographic findings may be prevented by this surgery.
To assess cardiovascular (CV) events and all-cause mortality in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients treated with first-line monotherapies of non-insulin antidiabetic drugs (NIADs).

Longitudinal retrospective cohort study in the Catalan database SIDIAP (Information System for the Development of Research in Primary Care). T2DM patients ≥18 years newly prescribed first-line monotherapies during 2010-2015 were followed since their first prescription until the composite of major adverse CV events, MACE (myocardium infarction [MI], stroke and all-cause death), its components, heart failure (HF) and peripheral artery disease (PAD) or censoring. Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate hazard ratios 95% confidence interval (HR [95%CI]).

Compared with metformin, the use of sulfonylureas, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4 i) and meglitinides were significantly associated with higher risk for MACE (1.55 [1.42-1.68]); 1.49 [1.22-1.84] and 2.01 [1.29-3.12]) and all-cause mortality (1.67 [1.52-1.84], 1.65 [1.30-2.] and 2.08 [1.26-3.42]). Sulfonylureas users had increased risk of MI (1.38 [1.03-1.85]) stroke (1.31 [1.11-1.54]), HF (1.49 [1.28-1.72]) and PAD (1.24 [1.02-1.51]). Meglitinides users were at increased risks of MI, HR 2.03 (1.10-3.74).

In first-line monotherapies, compared with metformin, sulfonylureas were associated with increased risks in all the outcomes; DPP-4 i and repaglinide showed increased risks of MACE and mortality. Residual confounding cannot be ruled out.

Total Mesorectal Excisions (TME) is the standard treatment of rectal cancer. It can be performed under laparoscopic, robotic or transanal approach. Inadvertent injury to surrounding structure like autonomic nerves is avoidable, no matter which approach is adopted. Lateral lymph node dissection (LLND) is a less commonly performed pelvic operation involving dissection in an unfamiliar area to most general surgeons. This article aims to clarify all the essential anatomy related to these procedures.

We performed thorough literature search and revision on the pelvic anatomy. TI17 order Our cases of TME and LLND, under either laparoscopic or transanal approach, were reviewed. We integrated the knowledge from literatures and our own experience. The result was presented in details, together with original figures and intra-operative photos.

Anatomy of pelvic fascia, autonomic nerve system, anal canal and sphincter complex are core knowledge in performing TME and LLND.

Thorough understanding of the pelvic anatomy enables colorectal surgeons to master these procedures, avoid complication and perform extended resection. On the other hand, surgeons can appreciate the complex pelvic anatomy easier by seeing the pelvis in opposite angles (transabdominal and transaanal view).

The covid-19 pandemic has dramatically changed lives of residents and medical students. In particular, the learning process has undergone widely changes, especially due to the rules of social distancing which have forced universities and various institutes to modify lessons, work shifts and internships.

The purpose of our review is to evaluate how the various institutes have faced the covid-19 emergency and guaranteed the perpetuation of the learning process of resident and students.

A comprehensive search of the medical literature in PubMed and Google Scholar was performed including all the works explaining how the institutes have reorganized teaching for resident and undergraduate students.

The use of internet for the dissemination of teaching material and educational meetings has built bridges, albeit virtual, between resident and teachers. New techniques for teaching and conducting exams have been introduced. The rotating team system allowed the continuation of the teaching activity in safety.

Thanks to remodulation of the teach modalities, the massive use of internet platforms, a wise distribution of work shifts, and others, universities and hospitals have not only reduced the impact on the learning process of resident and students but also turn this pandemic into a moment of personal and professional growth for the new generation of healthcare professionals.

This retrospective study was conducted to know clinical and radiographic outcomes, complication rate, and survival of THA in patients with high hip dislocation secondary to developmental dysplasia(DDH) or septic arthritis of the hip(SSH).

Between March 2005 and September 2014, there were consecutive series of 53 THAs in patients with a highly dislocated hip secondary to DDH or SSH. Of these, 48 hips (DDH 24 and SSH 24) were reviewed at a mean follow-up of 7.9 years(range, 5.0-14.3 years). The mean age at the time of THA was 39.1 years(range, 18.0-59.0 years).

Intraoperative blood loss, total drainage and blood transfusion amounts, and mean time to greater trochanter union were significantly lower in the DDH group than in the SSH group (P= .001, P= .039 and P= .014, and P= .015, respectively). No significant difference in Kaplan-Meier survivorship was observed between groups (log-rank,P= .343). The survival rates with an endpoint of cup aseptic loosening in cases with a cemented cup at 7.9 and 10 years (68.
