Abstract Background Despite growing interest in robot‐assisted surgery, the literature remains limited on the application of robotic surgery for complex endometriosis surgery requiring multidisciplinary input for multi‐visceral resection. The aim of the study was to report the short‐term feasibility and safety outcomes of this technique from a high ...

Classification of lung disease in HRCT scans using integral geometry measures and functional data analysis [PDF]
A framework for classification of chronic lung disease from high-resolution CT scans is presented. We use a set of features which measure the local morphology and topology of the 3D voxels within the lung parenchyma and apply functional data classification

High‐risk cardiac patients may benefit from timely temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) implantation to provide perioperative hemodynamic stabilization and circulatory support, thus enabling them to undergo life‐saving thoracic surgery. CPB: cardiopulmonary bypass; IABP: intra‐aortic balloon pump; tMCS: temporary mechanical circulatory ...

The overall survival of patients receiving an allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) for GATA2 deficiency was significantly better if they were transplanted recently, with a bone marrow or cord blood graft and if the transplant was performed before the onset of excess blast. Excess blast before HSCT was the only factor associated with an

We report the UK experience of autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) for multiple sclerosis (MS) in 364 patients. In our observational study, transplant‐related mortality was 1.4%, Epstein–Barr virus reactivation occurred in 75.9%, while disability progression‐free survival was 83.5% at 2 years post‐AHSCT and 62.4% at 5 years.

Clinical Significance of Bronchodilator Responsiveness Evaluated by Forced Vital Capacity in COPD: SPIROMICS Cohort Analysis. [PDF]
ObjectiveBronchodilator responsiveness (BDR) is prevalent in COPD, but its clinical implications remain unclear. We explored the significance of BDR, defined by post-bronchodilator change in FEV1 (BDRFEV1) as a measure reflecting the change in flow and ...

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the impact of implant surface and instrumentation time on the efficacy of two air powder water‐jet (APWJ) devices in cleaning the implant surface in a simulation of non‐surgical peri‐implantitis treatment. Materials and Methods Turned and modified surface implants (28 each) were coated with a biofilm imitation and mounted
