Ethnic Differences in Outcomes of Endovascular Thrombectomy in New Zealand

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Stroke is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in New Zealand, with ethnic disparities known to exist. Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) has proven efficacy in reducing or preventing disability for stroke patients, but little is known about ethnic differences in functional outcomes following EVT in New Zealand.

Frequency Analysis of Atrial Fibrillation From the Surface Electrocardiogram [PDF]

, 2004
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. Neither the natural history of AF nor its response to therapy are sufficiently predictable by clinical and echocardiographic parameters.

Left atrial wall stress distribution and its relationship to electrophysiologic remodeling in persistent atrial fibrillation

, 2012
Background—Atrial stretch causes remodeling that predisposes to atrial fibrillation. We tested the hypothesis that peaks in left atrial (LA) wall stress are associated with focal remodeling.\ud \ud Methods and Results—Nineteen patients underwent LA ...

Nut Consumption and Sperm Quality in Healthy Men: Results From the Led‐Fertyl Study

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nuts are rich in antioxidants and other bioactive compounds, and recent evidence suggests that their regular consumption may be associated with sperm quality. However, the current scientific evidence remains limited and inconsistent.

Anastomotic Failure Is Not Affected by Anastomotic Technique in Minimally Invasive Two‐Stage Oesophagectomy

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The choice of anastomotic technique in minimally invasive oesophagectomy (MIO) may influence postoperative morbidity and long‐term outcomes. The primary aim of our study is to determine whether circular (CS) or linear‐stapled (LS) anastomosis is associated with anastomotic complications following MIO.

A Systematic Scoping Review of Participant Descriptor, Diversity and Inclusivity Data Reported in Randomised Studies of Post‐Operative Ileus

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Poor reporting of baseline descriptor, diversity and inclusion data is a barrier in surgical research for drawing generalisable conclusions across diverse populations. Post‐operative ileus was used as an exemplar surgical condition to quantify the variation in baseline descriptor, inclusivity and diversity data in randomised ...

Atrial Fibrillation and Hyperthyroidism [PDF]

, 2005
Atrial fibrillation occurs in 10 – 15% of patients with hyperthyroidism. Low serum thyrotropin concentration is an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation. Thyroid hormone contributes to arrythmogenic activity by altering the electrophysiological

Pulmonary Embolism—A Century of Progress

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Reviews a century of progress in the diagnosis, prevention, and management of pulmonary embolism; from the first successful surgical embolectomy in 1924 to advanced imaging, pharmacological thromboprophylaxis, and treatment. In the 21st century, advances include catheter‐directed thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy under decision‐making guidance of
