(Elsevier BV, 2021-12-01)
BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance is a major global health concern, driven by overuse of antibiotics. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of a national antimicrobial stewardship intervention, the National Health Service ...
Whole-body diffusion-weighted MRI of normal lymph nodes: prospective apparent diffusion coefficient histogram and nodal distribution analysis in a healthy cohort.
(BMC, 2021-11-27)
BACKGROUND: Whole body DWI (WB-DWI) enables the identification of lymph nodes for disease evaluation. However, quantitative data of benign lymph nodes across the body are lacking to allow meaningful comparison of diseased ...
The Association of Intraoperative driving pressure with postoperative pulmonary complications in open versus closed abdominal surgery patients - a posthoc propensity score-weighted cohort analysis of the LAS VEGAS study.
(BMC, 2021-03-19)
BACKGROUND: It is uncertain whether the association of the intraoperative driving pressure (ΔP) with postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) depends on the surgical approach during abdominal surgery. Our primary ...
Stereotactic Radiofrequency Ablation of Breast Cancer Liver Metastases: Short- and Long-Term Results with Predicting Factors for Survival.
(SPRINGER, 2021-08-01)
PURPOSE: To evaluate safety, local oncological control, long-term outcome and potential prognostic factors of stereotactic RFA (SRFA) for the treatment of BCLMs. METHODS: Between July 2003 and December 2019, 42 consecutive ...
