<h3>Importance</h3> Surgeon sex is associated with differential postoperative outcomes, though the mechanism remains unclear. Sex concordance of surgeons and patients may represent a potential mechanism, given prior associations physician-patient relationships. <h3>Objective</h3> To examine association between surgeon-patient discordance outcomes. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> In this population-based, retrospective cohort study, adult 18 years older undergoing one 21 common...
Sex- and gender-based differences in a surgeon's medical practice communication may be factors patients' perioperative outcomes. Patients treated by female surgeons have improved 30-day However, whether these outcomes persist over longer follow-up has not been assessed.
The mechanism by which newly synthesized sterols are transported from their site of synthesis, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), to sterol-enriched plasma membrane (PM) is not fully understood. Studies in mammalian cells suggest that cholesterol PM Golgi-bypassing vesicles and/or via a nonvesicular process. Using yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as model system, we now rule out an essential role for known vesicular transport pathways transporting major sterol, ergosterol, its synthesis PM. We...
Approximately 70% of all suicides in patients aged >60 years are attributed to physical illness, with higher rates noted cancer. The purpose the current study was characterize suicide among genitourinary cancers and identify factors associated this specific cohort.Patients prostate, bladder, kidney, testis, penile cancer were identified Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results database (1988-2010). Standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) calculated for each...
Treatment-related regret is an integrative, patient-centered measure that accounts for morbidity, oncologic outcomes, and anxiety associated with prostate cancer diagnosis treatment.To assess the association between treatment approach, functional patient expectations treatment-related among patients localized cancer.This population-based, prospective cohort study used 5 Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER)-based registries in Comparative Effectiveness Analysis of Surgery Radiation...
Objective: To examine the association of anesthesiologist sex on postoperative outcomes. Summary Background Data: Differences in patient outcomes exist, depending whether primary surgeon is male or female, with better seen among patients treated by female surgeons. Whether intraoperative anesthesiologist’s associated differential unknown. Methods: We performed a population-based, retrospective cohort study adult undergoing one 25 common elective emergent surgical procedures from 2007–2019...
Abstract Proper anesthesia and knowledge of the anatomical location iliohypogastric ilioinguinal nerves is important during hernia repair other surgical procedures. Surgical complications have also implicated these nerves, emphasizing importance development a clear topographical map for use in their identification. The aim this study was to explore variations relate information clinical situations. One hundred adult formalin fixed cadavers were dissected resulting 200 nerve specimens. Each...
To report early operative outcomes and assess continence in 100 consecutive patients who underwent Retzius-sparing robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP).This was a prospective, single-center, case series of undergoing conventional RALP, respectively, by single surgeon between March 2015 April 2017.Baseline patient characteristics were similar the two groups. The approach required significantly less console time (120.0 minutes vs 144.0 minutes, p < 0.001). There no...
<h3>BACKGROUND:</h3> Aging may detrimentally affect cognitive and motor function. However, age is also associated with experience, how these factors interplay outcomes following surgery unclear. We sought to evaluate the effect of surgeon on postoperative in patients undergoing common surgical procedures. <h3>METHODS:</h3> performed a retrospective cohort study 1 25 procedures Ontario, Canada, from 2007 2015. evaluated association between composite outcome death, readmission complications....
