Same site recurrence following standardized high ligation and stripping of the great saphenous vein – 5‐year results of the LaVaCro trial

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Background Same‐site recurrence at the sapheno‐femoral junction (SFJ) takes up a large amount of the daily practice of phlebologists. Follow‐up data for high‐ligation and stripping (HL/S) of the great saphenous vein (GSV) are quite heterogenous and incoherent.

A Population Pharmacokinetic Model of Gentamicin in Hospitalized Neonatal Foals

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Information on safe and effective gentamicin dosing in foals is limited. This study aimed to provide guidance regarding optimal dosing regimens by means of a population pharmacokinetic (popPK) model. Gentamicin plasma concentration of 290 samples from 72 hospitalized foals (≤ 14 days old), treated with intravenous (IV) gentamicin, was measured
