Preoperative predictors of conversion as indicators of local inflammation in acute cholecystitis: strategies for future studies to develop quantitative predictors

open access: yesJournal of hepato-biliary-pancreatic sciences, 2018
Observational studies have identified risk factors for conversion from laparoscopic to open cholecystectomy in acute cholecystitis. The aim of this study is to evaluate the reliability of these predictors and to identify sources of heterogeneity in the ...

Granulocyte and Monocyte Adsorption Therapy in Patients With Sepsis: A Feasibility Study

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
The median SOFA score decreased from 10 to 4 after 7 days. Decreased circulatory and renal SOFA scores were characteristic. Granulocytes, mainly neutrophils, were adsorbed, and the neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio significantly improved. The median APACHE II score was 27, and the 28‐day mortality rate was 7.8%.

On the hot spots conjecture for acute triangles [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
We show that the hot spots conjecture of J. Rauch holds for acute triangles if one of the angles is not larger than $\pi/6$. More precisely, we show that the second Neumann eigenfunction on those acute triangles has no maximum or minimum inside the domain.

Acutely Triangulated, Stacked, and Very Ununfoldable Polyhedra [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
We present new examples of topologically convex edge-ununfoldable polyhedra, i.e., polyhedra that are combinatorially equivalent to convex polyhedra, yet cannot be cut along their edges and unfolded into one planar piece without overlap. One family of examples is acutely triangulated, i.e., every face is an acute triangle. Another family of examples is

Acute emphysematous cholecystitis

open access: yesJournal of British Surgery, 1971
Abstract Three cases of acute emphysematous cholecystitis are described and the literature reviewed. After considering clinical and radiological features, it is suggested that occlusion of the cystic artery may be the cause of this condition.

Acute Cholecystitis in Elderly Patients after Hip Fracture: a Nationwide Cohort Study

open access: yesJournal of Korean medical science, 2019
Background Because acute cholecystitis in elderly hip fracture is not easily distinguishable from other gastrointestinal symptoms and involves atypical clinical behaviors, it may not be diagnosed in the early stage.

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy for Acute Calcular Cholecystitis in a Patient with Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesCase Reports in Surgery, 2015
Management of patients who have ventriculoperitoneal shunt presenting with acute calcular cholecystitis has remained a clinical challenge. In this paper, the hospital course and the follow-up of a patient presenting with acute calcular cholecystitis and ...

No acute tetrahedron is an 8-reptile [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
An $r$-gentiling is a dissection of a shape into $r \geq 2$ parts which are all similar to the original shape. An $r$-reptiling is an $r$-gentiling of which all parts are mutually congruent. This article shows that no acute tetrahedron is an $r$-gentile or $r$-reptile for any $r < 9$, by showing that no acute spherical diangle can be dissected into ...
