To determine the incidence of isolated gastrocnemius and soleal vein thrombosis (IGSVT) effect anticoagulation on venous thromboembolism (VTE) events in patients with IGSVT.Although IGSVT is diagnosed increasing frequency, clinical significance optimal management remains unknown.Vascular laboratory studies from April 2002 to 2007 were retrospectively reviewed identify IGSVT. Medical records for demographic data, risk factors, treatment modalities, VTE events. Univariate multivariate analysis...
Neurotrophic keratopathy is a degenerative disease of the corneal epithelium and stroma that results from impaired innervation. 1 Reduced sensitivity responsible for producing recurring or chronic epithelial defects may lead to subsequent ulceration and/or perforation.It most frequently associated with topical medications, long-standing diabetes mellitus, herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO), simplex keratitis, neurologic disease, localized trauma.Conventional treatments include prophylactic...
The purpose of the study was to test efficacy neoadjuvant palbociclib therapy and evaluate its impact on cell cycle arrest changes in EndoPredict (EP) scores before after treatment. Postmenopausal women with histologically proven ER+ve, HER2−ve invasive breast cancer, 2 cm or greater, were enrolled an open-label, single-arm study. Twenty eligible patients given letrozole 2.5 mg per day together 125 for 3 out 4 weeks repeated cycles 16 (4 cycles) surgery. primary end points clinical response...
To compare clinical outcomes of eyes undergoing Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) with 51-99 μm and <50 lenticules. Retrospective, multi-center case series 480 DSAEK precut tissue from a single eye bank between 2019 2022 performed by five surgeons at centers. Eyes were divided into or groups according to post-cut graft thickness. The main outcome measure was inter-group comparison best-corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA); additional measures primary failure...
To evaluate the penetration of commercially available levofloxacin 0.5%, ofloxacin 0.3%, and ciprofloxacin 0.3% topical ophthalmic solutions in human corneal stromal aqueous humor tissues.A total 67 patients scheduled to undergo penetrating keratoplasty for treatment scar or dystrophy, keratoconus, pellucid marginal degeneration, endothelial disease were enrolled this prospective, double-blind, 3-center study. be considered inclusion, had have an intact epithelium minimal no edema...
Abstract Aim For early‐stage breast cancer, four cycles of docetaxel and cyclophosphamide (TC) was proven superior to doxorubicin plus in the US Oncology 9375 trial. Given primary prophylactic antibiotics, 5% febrile neutropenia recorded a population comprising 75.5% Caucasians. Smaller trials retrospective studies reviewing TC use Asian patients did not produce similar incidence rates. This study aims discover variable hematological toxicities with Caucasian patients. Methods Breast cancer...
Purpose: To evaluate and compare 1-year postoperative visual acuity, refractive results, endothelial cell density (ECD), complications in a consecutive group of patients who underwent deep lamellar keratoplasty (DLEK) with those penetrating (PK) performed by 1 surgeon. Methods: We prospectively analyzed results 20 Fuchs dystrophy pseudophakia small-incision DLEK surgery retrospectively compared these 23 standard PK during the same period. Main outcome measurements were best...
Baroreflex activation therapy (BAT) is an emerging device-based treatment for patients with heart failure a reduced ejection fraction refractory to maximally tolerated goal-directed medical therapy. Currently, there sparse literature on the critical role that vascular surgeons serve in delivery of this novel This single-institution series describes creation BAT program and elaborates function multidisciplinary team. The preoperative evaluation, perioperative care, postoperative course...
A 48-year-old man had simultaneous bilateral photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). The surgeon who performed the PRK did not see patient in follow-up, and there was confusion regarding comanaging doctor. Therefore, examined immediately postoperatively. Several days later, he hospitalized for an unrelated, painful orthopedic problem heavily sedated. Seven after PRK, ophthalmologist consulted ocular irritation discharge. Examination showed bilateral, purulent conjunctivitis severe infectious...
Purpose To compare the clinical characteristics of early- versus late-onset keratitis after radial keratotomy (RK) and astigmatic (AK). Setting Referral subspecialty practice. Methods This retrospective review comprised 19 patients with infectious RK AK. Early- groups were analyzed for predisposing conditions; infiltrate location, size, depth; microbiologic data; final visual outcome. Results Ten in early-onset group developed within a mean 7.4 days surgery (range 3 to 14 days). Nine 5.4...
Objective In patients with obesity, it was determined what proportion had an arm slant angle (SA) < 83° and which measure best predicted conicity. Patient experience noninvasive blood pressure measurement evaluated. Methods Arm SA calculated from measurements. Linear regression whether BMI, weight, or right midarm circumference (MAC) experiences were evaluated by survey conventional content analysis of free‐text comments. Results One hundred participants a median (interquartile range;...
