BACKGROUND Early and accurate diagnosis of sepsis the ensuing organ dysfunction remain a challenge in postoperative setting. Susceptibility to infections, as well subsequent immunological response, are driven some extent by genetic predisposition patient. The purpose this study was identify novel variants associated with (POS) surgical site infections (SSIs). METHODS We conducted genome-wide association studies for POS SSIs Electronic Medical Records Genomics Network database. All patients...

PURPOSE Cancer incidence is rising worldwide and estimated to double by 2040. A systematic method of allocating resources prioritizing cancer control efforts needed. We aimed develop test a simple metric quantify disparities in mortality. METHODS extracted country-specific mortality rates for 33 cancers from 185 countries using data Global Observatory (GLOBOCAN) 2020. Mortality-to-incidence ratios (MIRs) were calculated each every country. Delta MIRs (dMIRs) as the difference between...

Growth of skin in response to stretch is the basis for tissue expansion (TE), a procedure gain new area reconstruction large defects. Unfortunately, complications and suboptimal outcomes persist because TE planned executed based on physician's experience trial error instead predictive quantitative tools. Recently, we calibrated computational models porcine animal model expansion, showing that growth proportional with characteristic time constant. Here, use our predict cases pediatric...

Background: Perioperative data are essential to improve the safety of surgical care. However, outcome research (SOR) from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is disproportionately sparse. We aimed assess practices, barriers, facilitators, perceptions influencing collection use (SOD) in LMICs. Methods: An internet-based survey was developed disseminated stakeholders involved care patients The Performance Routine Information Systems Management framework used explore frequency relative...

4169 Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in US. There a need to improve risk-stratification patients facilitate treatment decisions. Novel datasets such as American Society Clinical Oncology (ASCO)’s CancerLinQ Discovery (CLQD) combined with machine learning (ML) methods provide an opportunity generate new insights from “real-world data” (RWD) study patient outcomes. The objective this was develop ML model using RWD predict...
