Assessing the Burden of Operatively Managed Extremity Fractures in Malawi: A Tale of Two Tertiary Hospitals

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) account for 90% of all deaths from injury globally, yet health systems remain poorly equipped to manage the escalating trauma burden. This study highlights a critical and escalating operative trauma burden in Malawi, driven largely by road traffic injuries, particularly motorcycle taxis.

Mapping Plastic Reconstructive Surgical Needs and Access Barriers in Sub‐Saharan Africa: A Scoping Review

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
An estimated 140 million additional surgical procedures are required annually, yet access to safe, timely, and affordable surgical care remains limited, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries, where the poorest 2.2 billion people receive only 3.5% of procedures.

Lower Limb Amputations Among Individuals Living With Diabetes Mellitus in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Diabetes‐related lower‐limb amputation (LLA) is a major global health problem; although rates have declined in some high‐income settings, the burden in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) has not been systematically quantified. This review aimed to estimate the prevalence and incidence of diabetes‐related LLA in LMICs, based on available published

Longitudinal changes in peritoneal solute transport rate and the impact of lower glucose degradation product glucose dialysates

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 471-478, June 2025.
Abstract Introduction Peritoneal solute transfer rates (PSTR) are reported to increase with time. Changes in PSTR were reviewed in long‐term peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients to determine whether lower glucose degradation products (low GDP) dialysates prevented an increase in PSTR. Methods PSTR was determined with a 4‐h peritoneal equilibrium test with

Impact of barometric pressure on blood pressure during dialysis: Introducing intradialytic time‐averaged cumulative systolic blood pressure (TACsBP‐inD) as a new metric

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 525-534, June 2025.
Abstract Background Blood pressure is a crucial risk factor for hemodialysis patients, but the specific impact of weather factors, particularly barometric pressure, on blood pressure remains unclear. This study aims to examine the relationship between barometric pressure and blood pressure in hemodialysis patients. Methods We conducted a single‐center,
