BACKGROUND: The safety and feasibility of robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) remain unclear. The aim of this study was to compare the short-term outcomes of RAMIE with extended lymphadenectomy and conventional minimally invasive ...
BACKGROUND: Multiple treatments are effective for major depressive disorder (MDD), but the outcomes of each treatment vary broadly among individuals. Accurate prediction of outcomes is needed to help select a treatment that is likely to work for a gi...
BACKGROUND: Making surgery as less aggressive as possible is best for elderly patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs). Recently, we attempted a more precise, minimally invasive, and robot-assisted kyphoplasty in our clinica...

BACKGROUND: Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) is an effective therapy for atrial fibrillation (AF). However, it the problem of AF recurrence remains. This study investigates whether a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) can accurately predi...
Many studies report predictions for cognitive function but there are few predictions in epileptic patients; therefore, we established a workflow to efficiently predict outcomes of both the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Montreal Cognitive A...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of robotic technology on the learning curve for robot-assisted gastrectomy in the initial clinical application stage and to compare RAG with laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy using a short-term evaluation.
BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic, robot-assisted, and transanal total mesorectal excision are the minimally invasive techniques used most for rectal cancer surgery. Because data regarding oncologic results are lacking, this study aimed to compare these three...
INTRODUCTION: To clarify the safety and efficacy of en bloc simultaneous robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) and laparoscopic nephroureterectomy (LNU) for synchronous muscle-invasive bladder carcinoma and upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) ...
