Intermittent pneumatic compression versus additional prophylaxis with enoxaparin for prevention of venous thromboembolism after laparoscopic surgery for gastric and colorectal malignancies: multicentre randomized clinical trial

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 804-810, October 2020., 2020
This RCT compared intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) alone with IPC plus enoxaparin for 1 week after surgery in the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for gastric or colorectal malignancy.

Diagnostic accuracy of acute diverticulitis with unenhanced low‐dose CT

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 659-665, August 2020., 2020
