Sarcopenia ‘made simple’ and outcomes from emergency laparotomy

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, Volume 92, Issue 12, Page 3198-3203, December 2022., 2022
CT‐assessed ratio of L3 vertebral body cross‐sectional area to total psoas muscle cross‐sectional area (L3:PM) is a simple yet significant predictor of 30‐, 90‐ and 365‐day mortality in emergency laparotomy patients. This study is the first to describe the association in an Australian population.

A novel in vivo approach to assess strains of the human abdominal wall under known intraabdominal pressure [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 125 (2022) 104902, 2021
The study concerns mechanical behaviour of a living human abdominal wall. A better mechanical understanding of a human abdominal wall and recognition of its material properties is required to find mechanically compatible surgical meshes to significantly improve the treatment of ventral hernias.
