Surgical site infections after sarcoma resections in the peripelvic region: do we need perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis?

Frontiers in Oncology
IntroductionSurgical site infections (SSI) are one of the most common complications after extensive sarcoma resections and represent a daily challenge. SSI occur in up to 50% of cases particularly in the peripelvic area.

Thigh Tumours at Kenyatta National Hospital [PDF]

, 2012
Background: The thigh is a common seat for tumours. Many histopathological types can arise there. Management challenges begin from the clinical diagnosis, to the surgery and ultimately the oncological therapy be it medical or radiation based.Objective ...

Geometry‐Encoded Soft Strain Sensing via Liquid‐Metal Transmission Lines

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a liquid‐metal transmission‐line strain sensor that achieves intrinsic decoupling by encoding axial elongation into propagation delay. The time‐domain readout remains stable under complex off‐axis. This enables reliable, repeatable, real‐time elongation measurement in dynamic, multiaxial loading environments for wearable electronics,

Mac‐2 Binding Protein Glycosylation Isomer (M2BPGi)–Based Risk Stratification Refined by Tumor Metabolic Activity in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
M2BPGi reflects background liver fibrosis and hepatic functional impairment. PET SUVmax reflects tumor metabolic aggressiveness. Their combination identifies a dual‐high subgroup with the poorest recurrence‐free and overall survival. ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the prognostic significance of preoperative Mac‐2 binding protein glycosylation isomer (M2BPGi)

Evaluating upper leg muscle volume: the reliability of thigh circumference measurement 10 cm above the patella

Bone & Joint Research
Aims: To use CT images and segmentation of the skin and muscles of the upper leg to determine a reliable location for measuring thigh circumference (TC) to assess the upper leg muscle volume and cross-sectional area (CSA). Methods: This research analyzed

Limited Agreement Between Perceptual and Physiological Heat Strain at Initial Stay Times for Continuous Work in the Heat Before Heat Alleviation Controls

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Accurate assessment of heat strain at initial stay time (IST; core temperature 38.0°C or Δ1.0°C above resting), when heat mitigation decisions are required, is critical for managing occupational heat exposure. We evaluated the relationship and agreement between physiological (Physiological Strain Index [PSI] and adaptive PSI [aPSI]

Timing of Work‐Rest Implementation Influences Worker Productivity Under Heat Stress: Evidence for Initial Stay Time‐Based Scheduling

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Work‐rest allocations recommended by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) limit heat strain and are typically implemented from the onset of work. Whether delaying implementation until after the initial stay time (IST; the duration of continuous work before core temperature reaches 38.0°C) improves ...

Initial Stay Time and Work‐Rest Scheduling During Consecutive Heavy‐Intensity Workdays in Hot Environments in Young and Older Males

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction This study examined initial stay times (IST), defined as the duration of uninterrupted work before core temperature approaches recommended safety limits (38.0°C, ~1.0°C above baseline), and the efficacy of work‐rest cycles during repeated heavy work across consecutive workdays in young and older males.

Giant thigh liposarcoma [PDF]

, 2018
IntroductionLiposarcoma is a heterogeneous group of adipocyte tumors in which cells differentiate into lipoblasts and lipocytes. Tumor localized in the extremities affects men more often. It rarely occurs before age 20.
