Impact of Geographic Socioeconomic Disadvantage on Minor Amputation Outcomes in Diabetic PatientsZhang et al. Re-evaluation of the Effect of Age on In-hospital Burn Mortality in a Resource-Limited SettingGallaher et al. Impact of Geographic Socioeconomic Disadvantage on Minor Amputation Outcomes in Diabetic PatientsZhang et al. Full length articleComparative Effectiveness of Surgical Approaches for Lung CancerAdwaiy Manerikar, Melissa Querrey, Emily Cerier, Samuel Kim, David D. Odell, Lorenzo L. Pesce, Ankit BharatDOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jss.2020.10.020Publication stage: In Press Corrected ProofPreviewxThe magnitude of association and quality of evidence comparing surgical approaches for lung cancer resection has not been analyzed. This has resulted in conflicting information regarding the relative superiority of the different approaches and disparate opinions on the optimal surgical treatment. We reviewed and systematically analyzed all published data comparing near- (30-d) and long-term mortality for minimally invasive to open surgical approaches for lung cancer.CorrespondenceResponse Regarding: Thigh Ultrasound Used to Identify Frail Elderly Patients With Sarcopenia Undergoing Surgery: A Pilot StudyRachel G. Khadaroo, Amritpal S. Bhullar, Puneeta Tandon, Vickie E. Baracos, Omar Al-Khathiri, Saad Y. SalimDOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jss.2020.11.082Publication stage: In Press Corrected ProofPreviewxWe thank Dr Razaq and colleagues for their thoughtful comments on our study. The aim of our pilot study was to investigate the use of thigh ultrasound (US) as a rapid bedside point-of-care diagnostic tool to identify high-risk older patients undergoing emergency surgery.1Full length articleJob Characteristics Affecting Japanese Surgeons’ Satisfaction LevelsNoriaki Kameyama, Hirohisa Nagai, Naruhiko IkomaDOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jss.2020.11.032Publication stage: In Press Corrected ProofPreviewxThe number of medical graduates choosing surgical careers has been declining rapidly in Japan, likely because of surgeons' notoriously stressful working environments and inadequate compensation. We hypothesized that surgeons, in comparison to those in other specialties, have distinct perceptions of their job. To better understand the reasons for the decline in the number of surgeons, we conducted an email-based survey to characterize surgeons' and physicians’ job perceptions.Full length articleA Novel Abdominal Decompression Technique to Treat Compartment Syndrome After Burn InjuryReynold Henry, Cameron Ghafil, Adam Golden, Emily Berry, Daniel Grabo, Kazuhide Matsushima, Damon Clark, Kenji Inaba, Joseph Carey, Aaron StrumwasserDOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jss.2020.11.019Publication stage: In Press Corrected ProofPreviewxPrevalence of abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is estimated to be 4%-17% in severely burned patients. Although decompressive laparotomy can be lifesaving for ACS patients, severe complications are associated with this technique, especially in burn populations. This study outlines a new technique of releasing intraabdominal pressure without resorting to decompressive laparotomy.Full length articleExpression of Fatty Acid–binding Protein-3 in Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors and Its Significance for PrognosisXi Chen, Shi-Liu Hu, Ying Feng, Peng Li, Qin-Sheng Mao, Wan-Jiang XueDOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jss.2020.11.003Publication stage: In Press Corrected ProofPreviewxFABP3 is a member of the fatty acid–binding protein (FABP) family, whose role in various cancers has been reported in the past. However, little is known about the role that FABP3 plays in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). Journal of Surgical Research publishes original articles concerned with clinical and laboratory investigations relevant to surgical practice and teaching. The journal emphasizes reports of clinical investigations or fundamental research bearing directly on surgical management that will be of general interest to a broad range of surgeons and surgical researchers. More The Association for Academic Surgery is widely recognized as an inclusive surgical organization. The impetus of the membership remains research-based academic surgery, and to promote the shared vision of research and academic pursuits through the exchange of ideas between senior surgical residents, junior faculty and established academic surgical professors. The Society of Asian Academic Surgeons (SAAS) was founded to focus on the personal and professional development of Asian academic surgeons with the belief that the best way to increase Asian representation in the leadership of academic surgery is to prepare future generations to succeed. Minimally Invasive Surgery The Journal of Surgical Research welcomes original research focused on minimally invasive surgery. Submit your MIS manuscript here.

JSR Search for Social Media Editor The Journal of Surgical Research (JSR) is currently accepting applications for a Social Editor. The Social Media Editor plays a crucial role in ensuring that the work featured in the journal reaches the broadest possible audience of clinicians, scientists, and educators interested in surgical science and academic career development. The Social Media Editor will manage the journal’s Twitter account to assist authors in promoting their work and to advance the initiatives of JSR and its affiliated organizations, the Association for Academic Surgery and the Society of Asian Academic Surgeons. The position will afford the Editor the opportunity to contribute at a very high level to the dissemination of peer-reviewed scientific surgical literature and to join a group of individuals with strong ties and interest in academic surgery. The editorial leadership team meets twice each year, once via teleconference during the summer and once in person at the Editorial Board Meeting held during the American College of Surgeons Clinical Congress in October. The Social Media Editor will be appointed for a 5-year term after which renewal will be considered.For this position, JSR is seeking high-energy applicants with expertise in social media platforms. Expertise in digital outreach strategies and digital graphic design will be extremely valuable. The applicant should have a strong publication record in the peer-reviewed literature; scientific impact is more important than volume. Previous experience as an ad-hoc reviewer for clinical and/or basic science journals is preferred. Because JSR is the official journal of the Association for Academic Surgery and the Society of Asian Academic Surgeons, candidates should have a history of participation in one or both of these organizations. If you are interested in being considered for this position, please send a copy of your CV and a one-paragraph statement regarding your interest, qualifications, and long-term goals to JSR@stellarmed.com before 11:59 pm CT Monday, December 14, 2020.
