Depth and Procedure Specific Effects of Antimicrobial Versus Conventional Sutures on Surgical Site Infection: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial sutures may be particularly beneficial in colorectal and abdominal procedures, where reductions in deep SSI may offset the additional suture cost. Several studies also reported favorable wound‐healing outcomes. ABSTRACT Background Surgical site infections (SSIs) are common postoperative complications that delay wound healing and increase ...

Heart‐Rate Variability and Its Role in Non‐Cardiac Surgery Perioperative Care: Scoping Review

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Heart rate variability (HRV) is a non‐invasive method of assessing autonomic function. Those with autonomic dysfunction may be at heightened risk of peri‐operative complications due to sympatho‐parasympathetic imbalance. This review summarises the clinical applications of HRV, approaches to how it is measured, and its role in ...

An Optimized Multi‐Stage Drainage Cannula Design for Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study utilized an extensive optimization involving n = 540 design of experiments to produce a superior drainage cannula design. Compared to the clinically used Maquet model, our optimized design demonstrated reduced blood stagnation volumes, increased cannula tip velocities, and higher upper body drainage, potentially minimizing risk of thrombosis

Progress Toward a Portable Artificial Lung: A Systematic Review

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Eight portable respiratory assist devices were identified. The CE‐marked MobyBox and the FDA‐approved Breethe OXY‐1 system are in clinical use. Each device is substantially minimized to allow ambulation, but further work is required to address challenges related to anticoagulant management and safe mobilization. Created in BioRender.

Vog: Using Volcanic Eruptions to Estimate the Health Costs of Particulates

The Economic Journal, EarlyView., 2018
The negative consequences of long‐term exposure to particulate pollution are well established but a number of studies find no effect of short‐term exposure on health outcomes. The high correlation of industrial pollutants complicates the estimation of the impact of individual pollutants on health.

Frequency, Burden and Pathogens of Acute Respiratory Illness in Very Preterm Infants During Infancy

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To describe the frequency, burden, and pathogen profile of acute respiratory illnesses (ARIs) in very preterm infants during the first year after neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) discharge. Methods Very preterm infants were followed prospectively (August 2015–January 2017) with monthly assessments of symptoms, medication use, and ...

Type and intensity of physical activity and their sex‐specific relation with classroom behaviour in preadolescent children

British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background On‐task behaviour in the classroom, which partly relies on inhibitory control, contributes to academic achievement. Physical activity has much potential to facilitate on‐task behaviour due to its positive association with inhibitory control.

Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists and muscle strength changes in older adults: Risks beyond muscle mass reductions

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP)/Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists are increasingly prescribed for the management of obesity and type 2 diabetes, yet research pertinent to their effects on muscle health is limited. Considering the central role of muscle strength as a sarcopenia component, this article summarizes emerging ...
