Treatment of abdominal aorta aneurysms [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Geriatrics, 2010
Background The best treatment of abdominal aorta aneurysms of the segments below the emergency of the renal arteries are still under discussion. In literature there are several studies that compare the retroperitoneal (R.P.) approach with the transperitoneal (T.P.) one or that suggest their possible variations. The R.P. approach offers the possibility

Postoperative Impact of Anti‐Inflammatory Drug on Cancer Recurrence in Patients With Locally Advanced Gastric Cancer After Curative Gastrectomy: A Pilot Retrospective Study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Anti‐inflammatory drugs may be effective in improving recurrence‐free survival after radical gastrectomy in patients with pStage II or III gastric cancer. ABSTRACT Background Elevated postoperative inflammation is associated with reduced recurrence‐free survival (RFS) after gastrectomy in patients with gastric cancer, independent of postoperative ...

RefineCatDiff: Toward High‐Quality Medical Image Segmentation via a Categorical Diffusion Refinement Framework

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study proposes RefineCatDiff, a refinement framework for high‐quality medical image segmentation. By developing a categorical distribution‐based discrete diffusion process for refinement, the framework aligns well with the characteristics of image segmentation tasks. Experimental results on multiple datasets across different modalities demonstrate

A Soft‐Tip Hydraulically Steerable Catheter for Enhanced Flexibility and Safety in Vascular Interventions

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces a hydraulically steerable catheter with a soft tip in vascular procedures. The steering soft tip achieves a minimal diameter of 2.6 mm and supports a 180° bend. Real‐time shape and position tracking, facilitated by segmentation and endpoint detection techniques, improves navigation.

Facts and Misfacts on D‐Dimer Testing. Consensus Guidance From the Italian Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis (SISET)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT D‐dimer defines degradation products derived from the proteolysis mediated by plasmin on cross‐linked fibrin. The evidence‐based use of D‐dimer in some conditions has been consolidated. Currently, however, there is an entrenched prescription of D‐dimer testing to screen otherwise healthy subjects that may induce prescribing physicians to start
