High preoperative Glasgow prognostic score increases a risk of hospital mortality in elderly patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 298-310, April 2025.
Kokumai and colleagues demonstrated that surgical outcomes for elderly patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma are comparable to those for younger patients. However, propensity score matching revealed that a high preoperative Glasgow Prognostic Score is associated with increased hospital mortality and poor prognosis, highlighting the the need for ...

Label up: Learning Pulmonary Embolism Segmentation from Image Level Annotation through Model Explainability [PDF]

arXiv
Pulmonary Embolisms (PE) are a leading cause of cardiovascular death. Computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA) stands as the gold standard for diagnosing pulmonary embolisms (PE) and there has been a lot of interest in developing AI-based models for assisting in PE diagnosis. Performance of these algorithms has been hindered by the scarcity of

Safety and efficacy of living donor liver transplantation for unresectable perihilar cholangiocarcinoma: A single center prospective study

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 276-286, April 2025.
Abstract Background The prognosis for unresectable perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (phCCA) is extremely poor. Liver transplantation in combination with neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy has become the treatment of choice for unresectable phCCA in the USA.

Nonlinear dynamics of air invasion in one-dimensional compliant fluid networks [PDF]

arXiv
Vascular networks exhibit a remarkable diversity of architectures and transport mechanisms across biological systems. Inspired by embolism propagation in plant xylem - where air invades water-filled conduits under negative pressure - we study air penetration in compliant one-dimensional hydrodynamic networks experiencing mass loss by pervaporation ...

Things We Do for No Reason™: Arterial blood gas testing to screen for hypercarbic respiratory failure

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Venous blood gases (VBGs) are safe and effective at screening for hypercarbic respiratory failure. Multiple studies have validated that a VBG with a PvCO2 less than 45 reliably rules out hypercarbia. The use of VBGs for the initial screening of hypercarbia when hypercarbic respiratory failure is suspected can reduce the overall use of arterial
