The implementation of protocolized care pathways has resulted in major improvements surgical outcomes. Additional gains will require focused efforts to alter preexisting risk. Prehabilitation programs provide a promising avenue for risk reduction.This study used wearable technology monitor activity levels before colorectal surgery evaluate the impact preoperative on postoperative outcomes.This was prospective nonrandomized observational study.The conducted at large academic medical...

Abstract Background Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation between the brain and spinal canal, as part of glymphatic system, provides homeostatic support to functions waste clearance. Recently, it has been observed that CSF flow is strongly driven by cardiovascular pulsation, affected body orientation. The advancement MRI allowed for non-invasive examination hydrodynamic properties. However, very few studies have addressed their relationship with position (e.g., upright versus supine). It...

Several studies report coexistent or subsequent primary tumors (SPT) among patients with malignant melanoma (MM), the rate of incidence ranging from 1.5-20% depending on sample size and length completeness follow-up.The authors followed a cohort cutaneous MM who were diagnosed treated at City Hope National Medical Center to determine SPT associated risk factors. Five hundred eighty-five (median age diagnosis, 43 years) for between 1952 1996 median 6.5 years (range, 0.0-37.0 years)....

To determine the maximally tolerated dose, toxicity, and pharmacokinetics of i.p. gemcitabine.Patients had peritoneal carcinomatosis. Gemcitabine (40, 80, 120, or 160 mg/m(2)) was administered into cavity in 2 L warmed saline on days 1, 4, 8, 12 a 28-day cycle.Thirty patients received 63 (median, 2; range, 0-6) courses. Tumors included ovary (14), uterus (2), colon (6), pancreas (3), others (5). Dose-limiting toxicity nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dyspnea, fatal respiratory failure, grade 3...

Esophageal carcinoma is a particularly interesting tumor because of the dramatic difference in its incidence and geographic distribution among populations similar ethnic origin. Epidemiologic data have suggested that many environmental exposures may be associated with an increased risk formation.In this study, 92 samples esophageal squamous cell (ESCC) were collected from patients who resided 2 areas China different incidences ESCC: Linxian Zhejiang. Overexpression mutations p53...

Motivation: Quantitative analysis of blood and CSF flow dynamics is vital to understand the intracranial pulsating fluid movement environment its role in brain homeostasis. Goal(s): To characterize correlation between (arterial/venous) within one cardiac cycle. Approach: Flow dynamic measurements neck arteries veins, cervical (CSFc) aqueduct Sylvius (CSFAq) were obtained using cine phase-contrast MRI from 18 healthy volunteers. Results: Net CSFc wave curves depict a compensatory mechanism...

Background Ventricular dysfunction in patients with a single right ventricle (SRV) or as ingle left (SLV) is known risk factor for morbidity and mortality. However, the differences SRV SLV function remain poorly understood, only few studies performed1-3. In this study, we measure strain using cardiac MRI perform comprehensive comparison of global regional both circumferential (ecc) longitudinal (eL) dimension. Purpose: normal subjects asymptomatic after total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC),...
