Tranexamic Acid in Lower Extremity Endoprosthetic Reconstruction for Oncologic Indications: A Retrospective Comparative Study of 617 Patients

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives While tranexamic acid (TXA) reduces blood loss in orthopedic surgery, thromboembolic concerns in cancer patients have limited adoption in orthopedic oncology. This study evaluated TXA efficacy and safety in patients undergoing endoprosthetic reconstruction for oncologic indications.

Hospital Volume and Post‐Hepatectomy Liver Failure After Major Hepatectomy

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Post‐hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) following major hepatectomy (MH) increases the risk of morbidity and death. The relationship between institutional MH volume, PHLF, and outcomes is not well characterized. Methods Adults undergoing MH from 2014 to 2021 in the ACS NSQIP hepatectomy‐targeted database were included.

Impact of Proton Pump Inhibitor Use on Outcomes Following Carotid Artery Stenting for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis: A Population‐Based Cohort Study

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is an effective treatment for carotid stenosis. Proton‐pump inhibitors (PPIs) are commonly prescribed in the general population. However, the impact of PPI use on outcomes following CAS remains unknown. This study investigated the impact of PPI use on CAS using a retrospective, matched‐cohort analysis from the ...

Triacylglycerol‐Based Insulin Resistance Indices and Post‐Transplantation Diabetes Mellitus After Liver Transplantation

Lipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Post‐transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) is a common complication following liver transplant (LT) and is associated with adverse outcomes. The triacylglycerol‐glucose product (TyG) and the triacylglycerol‐to‐high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio (TAG/HDL‐c) are indices that can serve as triacylglycerol‐based proxies for ...
