A System for Critical Facility and Resource Optimization in Disaster Management and Planning [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Disruptions to medical infrastructure during disasters pose significant risks to critically ill patients with advanced chronic kidney disease or end-stage renal disease. To enhance patient access to dialysis treatment under such conditions, it is crucial to assess the vulnerabilities of critical care facilities to hazardous events.

Predicting older‐donor kidneys' post‐transplant renal function using pre‐transplant data

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), Volume 70, Issue 1, Page 21-33, February 2023., 2023
Abstract This paper provides a methodology for predicting post‐transplant kidney function, that is, the 1‐year post‐transplant estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR‐1) for each donor‐candidate pair. We apply customized machine‐learning algorithms to pre‐transplant donor and recipient data to determine the probability of achieving an eGFR‐1 of at ...

Prevalence of iron deficiency in acute and chronic heart failure according to different clinical definitions

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Iron is essential to maintain cellular energy metabolism in the myocardium. Impaired cellular iron availability negatively affects myocardial physiology and can aggravate heart failure (HF). Iron deficiency (ID) is frequently found in patients with acute and chronic HF (AHF, CHF) and associated with clinical outcome.

Temporal profiling of M‐TEER‐related complications

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair of the mitral valve (M‐TEER) is known for its low complication rates. However, the optimal level and duration of post‐procedural care remain unclear. This study aimed to identify the specific timeframe of post‐procedural complications following M‐TEER.
