Abstract:

INTRODUCTION: Adult cervical deformity patients can have significant impact on quality of life. Realignment surgery has proven to be effective in a select group of these patients, however despite advancements in the field, complications are not uncommon. Evaluation of outcomes overtime can be insightful on aspects that surgeons have been improving on and those that remain to be a nuance. METHODS: Adult Cervical Deformity(ACD) patients with a minimum 2-year follow-up and less than 10 levels fused were included. Patients were stratified into quartiles by date of surgery, with the middle two quar

Abstract:

Background: Increasing numbers of studies have shown that postoperative complication is a negative predictor of long-term survival outcomes in in various malignancies. However, the impact of severity of complications on long-term survival for patients with gastric cancer still remains unclear.

Abstract:

Cecal volvulus is a rare complication following gastric band surgery. Continuous progress in surgical technique of adjustable gastric banding and the increasing experience of surgeons has decreased the rate of complications. However, because different complications may have the same clinical presentation but require different treatment, to give a definitive diagnosis radiologist must be aware of this complication as it can be fatal to patient if remains undiagnosed or misdiagnosed.

Abstract:

In the prethrombolytic era, ventricular septal rupture (VSR) complicated 1%–3% of all acute myocardial infarctions (AMIs). However, since the introduction of reperfusion therapy, the incidence of VSR has decreased, complicating 0.17%–0.31% of AMIs. Despite a reduction in incidence, mortality of patients with VSR remains high (41%–80%). It is important to identify this rare, but lethal complication at the earliest, as it is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Even with early diagnosis, the survival rate is not good. The management of this fatal complication is also a topic of debate.

Category: Ankle; Ankle Arthritis; Other Introduction/Purpose: The use of chemoprophylaxis to prevent thromboembolic complications following total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) is debated in the field of orthopaedics. The incidence of thromboembolic complications has been shown to vary within the literature, and some studies suggest that the incidence may be similar to what is seen following hip and knee arthroplasty. Therefore, some surgeons will prescribe chemoprophylaxis, such as aspirin 325mg or enoxaparin 40mg following surgery, especially in high-risk patients. To our knowledge, the cost-effec

Abstract:

Diabetic nephropathy is one of the fairly severe Diabetes Mellitus (DM) complications and the main cause of renal failure that can result in mortality. Hyperglycemia in DM induces kidney injury that may result in hemodynamic and metabolic alterations, endothelial dysfunction and inflammatory cells activation. A persistent and continuous inflammation is observed in diabetic nephropathy. One of the inflammation process progression indicators is Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR). To find out the relationship between NLR and decreased Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) in diabetic nephropathy. This

Abstract Background Outpatient parenteral antibiotic therapy (OPAT) has reduced length of stay, decreased nosocomial infections, and improved patient satisfaction/outcomes. Factors for choosing candidates and regimens for OPAT include: type of infection, organisms, antibiotic side effects, number of antibiotics and frequency of administration. This study sought to evaluate if antibiotic type, frequency, and duration, are associated with complications, and particularly if vancomycin is associated with an increase rate of complication.

Abstract:

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a chronic complication associated with diabetes and the number one cause of blindness in working adults in the US. More than 90% of diabetic patients have obesity-associated type 2 diabetes (T2D), and 60% of T2D patients will develop DR. Photoreceptors undergo apoptosis shortly after the onset of diabetes, which contributes to the retinal dysfunction and microvascular complications leading to vision impairment. However, how diabetic insults cause photoreceptor apoptosis remains unclear. In this study, obesity-associated T2D mice and cultured photoreceptors were use

ABSTRACT Objective: The main surgical approach in proximal humeral fractures is the deltopectoral approach. Many surgeons avoid the anterolateral approach, fearing its complications, especially axillary nerve injury. The objective of this study is to evaluate shoulder function and complications in patients with proximal humeral fractures treated using an anterolateral approach with direct observation of the axillary nerve. Methods: Retrospective study with postoperative radiological and functional evaluations (Constant and DASH scores) and review of the complications. The associations between

Between 1991 and 2000, the prevalence of obesity increased 65 per cent. As a result, increasing research is being directed at gastric bypass (GB) surgery, an operation that appears to achieve long-term weight reduction. Despite the rapid proliferation of this surgery, the quality of care at a population level is largely unknown. This study examines longitudinal trends in quality and identifies significant predictors of adverse outcomes. Using the California inpatient discharge database, all GB operations from 1996 to 2000 were identified. Demographic, comorbidity, complication, and volume data

While RPLND is an invasive and complex operation, prior research suggests complication rates are relatively low and may vary based on patient characteristics and disease-related factors.
