The Impact of Early Postoperative Blood Pressure Variability and Hypertension Status on 90‐Day Functional Outcomes in Acute Ischemic Stroke due to Large Vessel Occlusion Patients Treated With Mechanical Thrombectomy

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Early postoperative blood pressure variability independently predicts poor 90‐day functional outcomes in AIS‐LVO patients after mechanical thrombectomy, with the adverse effect amplified in those with pre‐existing hypertension. Maintaining stable blood pressure in the early postoperative period may improve recovery in this high‐risk population ABSTRACT

Risk Factors for Small‐for‐Size Syndrome Grade B/C After Simultaneous Splenectomy in Adult Living‐Donor Liver Transplantation

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In a single‐center cohort of 577 adult LDLT recipients who underwent simultaneous splenectomy, clinically significant SFSS grade B/C (ILTS‐iLDLT‐LTSI 2023) occurred in 18.2% and was associated with inferior graft survival. Multivariate analysis identified MELD ≥ 30, NLR ≥ 4.5, and donor age ≥ 50 years as independent risk factors, which risk rising ...
