Comparison of the effect of two left internal mammary artery harvesting techniques (skeletonization and pedicled) on post coronary artery bypass surgery pain and bleeding

Research in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2017
Background: Recent evidence suggests that skeletonization of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) can improve the flow and length of the flow, reduce deep sternal infections and postoperative pain.

High‐ and Ultra‐High‐Frequency Ultrasound Identifies a Subclinical Link Between Suppurative Comedonal Nevus and Hidradenitis Suppurativa

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Suppurative nevus comedonicus (SNC) is a variant of nevus comedonicus in which the characteristic features coexist with recurrent inflammatory lesions that clinically resemble those of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). We present the ultrasound characteristics of this entity and emphasize the value of high‐resolution dermatologic ultrasound both as a ...

Internal mammary artery dilatation in a patient with aortic coarctation, aortic stenosis, and coronary disease. Case report

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2011
The ideal surgical approach is unclear in adult patients with coarctation of the aorta that is associated with other cardiovascular pathologies that require intervention. Standard median sternotomy allows simultaneous, coronary revascularization surgery,

Capture of isoflurane from anaesthetised dogs and cats following methadone, medetomidine and ketamine administration

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Volatile anaesthetic agents contribute to climate change, and reducing this impact is a commendable ambition. We evaluated the efficiency of a veterinary capture device for isoflurane (VET‐can/VET‐dock, SageTech Veterinary) in anaesthetised cats and dogs.

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 ...

Circulating Musclin is associated with skeletal muscle function and subclinical cardiac dysfunction in patients with cancer

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Musclin (osteocrin) is a skeletal muscle‐derived peptide that has been implicated in cardioprotective signalling pathways. Its relevance in cancer patients, who frequently experience muscle wasting and cardiotoxicity, remains unclear. This study aimed to determine whether circulating Musclin levels reflect functional capacity and
