Enhancing geriatric trauma mortality prediction: Modifying and assessing the Geriatric Trauma Outcome Score with net benefit and decision curve analysis

open access: yesAcademic Emergency Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Calibration and discrimination indicators alone are insufficient for evaluating the clinical usefulness of prediction models, as they do not account for the cost of misclassification errors. This study aimed to modify the Geriatric Trauma Outcome Score (GTOS) and assess the clinical utility of the modified model using net benefit (NB)

Measurement and interpretation of central venous pressure: a narrative review

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Central venous pressure has been a key component of haemodynamic monitoring for several decades, but its clinical utility is still debated. While central venous pressure has been used traditionally to assess intravascular volume status and fluid responsiveness, mounting evidence suggests that its absolute value alone is an ...

Early use of non‐vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants after cardiac surgery compared with warfarin for postoperative atrial fibrillation

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
With the increasing use of NOAC and the availability of reversal agents, there remains sparse evidence regarding its use in POAF. The use of a NOAC in patients with POAF did not appear to increase short‐term postoperative complications, including bleeding, stroke, readmission rates and mortality, compared with warfarin.

Isogenic Transplantation of Hybrid Artificial Pleural Tissue Consisting of Rat Cells and Polyglycolic Acid Nanofiber Sheet Induces Restoration of Mesothelial Defects in Rat Model

open access: yesArtificial Organs, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 778-789, May 2025.
We have successfully constructed hybrid 3D tissue using mesothelial cells, fibronectin‐gelatin nanofilm‐coated fibroblasts, and collagen‐coated PGA nanofiber sheets to create artificial pleura, and achieved successful isogenic engraftment in a rat model of pleural defects. ABSTRACT Background Impairment of the visceral pleura following thoracic surgery

Perioperative Mechanical Circulatory Support for Cardiac Assistance in Thoracic Surgery: A Scoping Review

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
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 ...

Ultrasound Assessment of Venous and Pulmonary Congestion in Left Ventricular Assist Devices Patients

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Renal venous stasis index (RVI) of Doppler renal ultrasound index is the peripheral vein ultrasound associated with high right atrial pressure, and right displacement of the interatrial septum is the echocardiographic parameter associated with high pulmonary wedge pressure.

Malignant pleural disease

European Journal of Radiology, 2000
The vast majority of pleural neoplasms invade the pleura secondarily and can be seen in patients with bronchogenic carcinoma, breast cancer, lymphoma, and ovarian or gastric carcinoma. Primary pleural neoplasms are less common, although they have developed notoriety since the up-surge of malignant mesothelioma and the knowledge of its connection to ...

Pleural Disease in Lymphangioleiomyomatosis

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2006
Pleural disease is a common complication of lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM). The incidence and recurrence rates of secondary spontaneous pneumothorax in LAM are the highest among chronic pulmonary disorders. Most patients have at least one pneumothorax before LAM is diagnosed, and pneumothorax is often the sentinel event that leads to the diagnosis ...
