Subcutaneously anchored securement devices (or subcutaneous engineered devices) have been introduced recently into the clinical practice, but number of published studies is still scarce. The Italian Group Long-Term Central Venous Access Devices (GAVeCeLT)-in collaboration with WoCoVA (World Congress on Vascular Access)-has developed a Consensus about effectiveness, safety, and cost-effectiveness such devices.After definition panel experts, systematic collection review literature...
The purpose of this study was the evaluation pressure-volume (PV) curve and all possible complications as it appears on an anesthesia monitor recording parameters such PO2 SpO2 intraoperatively before intubation. took place in Surgery Department a highly qualified Cancer Memorial Hospital, included 90 oncology patients diagnosed with abdominal cancer, divided into three groups. Patients Group A had normal history pulmonary function body mass index values; B obstructive lung disease; C...
Thyroid dysfunction (TD) represents an extrahepatic manifestation of chronic hepatitis C (CHC). Moreover, the currently approved treatment CHC is often associated with TD. However, it remains debatable if TD mainly virus- or treatment-related. The aim this study was to assess incidence and features TD, identify its predictors in treated untreated patients.Ninety-four patients normal thyroid function were evaluated long-term for TD: 33 (control group) 61 pegylated interferon alpha...

Mainly discovered during the operation, its surgical approach in laparoscopic setting may be challenging even for an experienced surgeon.LSG was unexpectedly young man cholecystectomy. There were no pre-operative indications this sinistroposition. The cholecystectomy performed minor modifications and it uneventful. A meticulous review recent literature about LSGs conducted as well.LSG scarce aberration...
