Development and External Validation of a Postoperative Risk Score for Venous Thromboembolism in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is a major complication in women with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We aimed to develop and externally validate an early postoperative risk score to identify EOC patients at increased risk of VTE after debulking surgery.

Association Between Triglyceride‐Glucose Index and in‐Hospital Intensive Care Unit Readmission in Ischemic Stroke Patients: A Retrospective Analysis Based on the MIMIC‐IV Database

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This retrospective cohort study utilized the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care database to investigate the association between the triglyceride–glucose (TyG) index and in‐hospital intensive care unit (ICU) readmission in patients with ischemic stroke (IS). Among 2929 patients, 24.0% experienced ICU readmission.

Determinants of Early Renal Function Recovery After TIPS in Patients With Portal Hypertension

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Renal dysfunction frequently occurs in patients with portal hypertension and is linked to unfavorable clinical outcomes. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) has the potential to enhance renal perfusion through portal decompression; however, factors predicting early improvement in renal function remain insufficiently defined ...
