Abstract
The complexity in the molecular mechanism of the internal anal sphincter (IAS) limits preclinical or clinical outcomes of fecal incontinence (FI) treatment. So far, there are no systematic reviews of IAS translation and experimental studies that have been reported. This systematic review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of IAS critical role in FI. Previous studies revealed the key pathway for basal tone and relaxation of IAS in different properties as follows; calcium, Rho-associated, coiled-coil containing serine/threonine kinase, aging-associated IAS dysfunction, oxidative stress, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone, cyclooxygenase, and inhibitory neurotransmitters. Previous studies have reported improved functional outcomes of cellular treatment for regeneration of dysfunctional IAS, using various stem cells, but did not demonstrate the interrelationship between those results and basal tone or relaxation-related molecular pathway of IAS. Furthermore, these results have lower specificity for IAS-incontinence due to the included external anal sphincter or nerve injury regardless of the cell type. An acellular approach using bioengineered IAS showed a physiologic response of basal tone and relaxation response similar to human IAS. However, in both cellular and acellular approaches, the lack of human IAS data still hampers clinical application. Therefore, the IAS regeneration presents more challenges and warrants more advances.

The role of percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) in the treatment of chronic anal fissure: a systematic review. Int J Colorectal Dis 2021; 36:2337-2346.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study was designed to summarize the current evidence regarding the role of percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) in the treatment of chronic anal fissure (CAF). METHODS The present systematic review of the literature was conducted on the basis of the PRISMA guidelines and the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. The primary endpoint of our study was the CAF recurrence rate. Quality assessment was based on the RoB 2 tool and the Case Series Quality Checklist. RESULTS Overall, 5 studies and 102 patients were included. A considerably heterogeneity in the neuromodulation technique and setting was identified. The pooled recurrence rate was estimated at the level of 19% (16/84). Post-interventional pain and Wexner scores were considerably reduced. The 2-month healing rate was 72% (18/25), whereas 73.6% of patients were symptom-free at 6 months. CONCLUSIONS PTNS is an effective alternative for the non-operative management of CAF. Due to several limitations further larger and higher quality studies are required.

Abstract
Anorectal emergencies comprise a wide variety of diseases that share common symptoms, i.e., anorectal pain or bleeding and might require immediate management. While most of the underlying conditions do not need inpatient management, some of them could be life-threatening and need prompt recognition and treatment. It is well known that an incorrect diagnosis is frequent for anorectal diseases and that a delayed diagnosis is related to an impaired outcome. This paper aims to improve the knowledge and the awareness on this specific topic and to provide a useful tool for every physician dealing with anorectal emergencies.The present guidelines have been developed according to the GRADE methodology. To create these guidelines, a panel of experts was designed and charged by the boards of the World Society of Emergency Surgery (WSES) and American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) to perform a systematic review of the available literature and to provide evidence-based statements with immediate practical application. All the statements were presented and discussed during the WSES-AAST-WJES Consensus Conference on Anorectal Emergencies, and for each statement, a consensus among the WSES-AAST panel of experts was reached. We structured our work into seven main topics to cover the entire management of patients with anorectal emergencies and to provide an up-to-date, easy-to-use tool that can help physicians and surgeons during the decision-making process.
