A computational study of viscoelastic blood flow in an arteriovenous fistula [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
A finite element analysis of flows of an Oldroyd-B fluid is developed, to simulate blood flow in an arteriovenous fistula. The model uses a combination of a standard conforming finite element approximation for the momentum equation, and the discontinuous Galerkin method, with upwinding, for the equation governing the evolution of the extra stress.

Long‐Term Nutritional Benefits of Laparoscopic Pancreatoduodenectomy Over Open Surgery

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Minimally invasive laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) significantly improves long‐term nutritional outcomes compared to open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD). LPD patients demonstrated better preservation of muscle mass index (PMI) and a lower incidence of postoperative fatty liver.

Expert Strategies: Skull Base Reconstruction—Global Perspectives, Insights, and Algorithms through a Mixed Methods Approach

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective There is limited consensus on endoscopic skull base surgery (ESBS) reconstruction principles. This study aims to generate comprehensive themes regarding ESBS reconstruction by pooling the experiences of ESBS experts, with comparison to a literature review of current published evidence.

A multivariate Bayesian learning approach for improved detection of doping in athletes using urinary steroid profiles [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Biomarker analysis of athletes' urinary steroid profiles is crucial for the success of anti-doping efforts. Current statistical analysis methods generate personalised limits for each athlete based on univariate modelling of longitudinal biomarker values from the urinary steroid profile.
