Material - Method Our study was carried out with the approval numbered 13281952-929 from Elazig Training and Research Hospital. All procedures performed in studies involving human participants were in accordance with the ethical standards of the institutional and/or national research committee and
COVID-19 is pandemic and, though it primarily affects the lungs, there is evidence of cardiovascular system involvement. Mechanistically, SARS-CoV-2, following proteolytic cleavage of its S protein by a serine protease, binds to the transmembrane angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) —a homologue
Design: Retrospective cohort study that will review the data of patients seen in participating centers with a confirmed or probable diagnosis of COVID-19 between March and April 2020. Those patients who test positive for nasopharyngeal exudate for SARS-CoV-2 will be considered a confirmed case using
We suggest performing a prospective randomized pilot trial comparing RYGB without concomitant cholecystectomy with RYGB with concomitant cholecystectomy for patients with absence of gallstones in preoperative ultrasound. Patients with ultrasonographically confirmed gallstones in the gallbladder
Provoked venous thromboembolism (VTE) is traditionally considered a transient acute disorder requiring a limited duration of anticoagulant therapy. Patients who suffer deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE) following major surgery, major trauma, or periods of immobility are generally
Lumbar spinal fusions are becoming increasingly popular and prevalent in the treatment of a variety of spinal pathologies, but predominantly for degenerative disease which is most prevalent in the obese and or older population. These operations can result in relatively high post operative surgical
Acute and chronic venous disorders of the lower extremities affect millions of people and cause substantial disability. Surgeons and pathologists identified the presence of 'spur-like' abnormalities of the left common iliac vein, these abnormalities were hypothesized to result from compression
The study is monocentric, realised in University Hospital of Clermont-Ferrand, France, using the CT GE Revolution dedicated to the emergency service.
For each patient with suspicion of pulmonary embolism, regarding the inclusion and exclusion criteria (explained later), investigators realise the
PPH occurs in approximately 1-5% of deliveries in the United States and accounts for 20-25% of maternal deaths worldwide. PPH is difficult to predict, but classically, risk factors for PPH- uterine atony, abruption, retained tissue, lacerations, infection, obesity, preeclampsia, magnesium
OVERALL STUDY OBJECTIVES
1. To develop and internally validate a risk assessment model for predicting the risk of in-hospital VTE in critically ill patients (phase 1)
2. To externally validate this new model (phase 2)
3. To compare the performance of this model to other VTE prediction models
Human blood samples will be collected prospectively from 50 obese patients, who are enrolled and planning to undertake bariatric surgery in the Outpatient Bariatric Surgery Clinic at Tulane University, HSC (Christopher G. Ducoin, MD, MPH; Chair of Bariatric Surgery Clinic and Surgeon, and Shauna
Often comorbid with obesity, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the leading cause of chronic liver disease in the United States affecting 75-100 million adults, of which 15-20 million have the more severe variant nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Conservative estimates project a doubling
Management of post-operative pain remains a major challenge and an area of continued research. Effective pain control, apart from providing general patient comfort, is critical for a variety of clinical reasons. It leads to early ambulation and improved respiratory function, which significantly
