Abstract Objective To determine if virtual care with remote automated monitoring (RAM) technology versus standard increases days alive at home among adults discharged after non-elective surgery during the covid-19 pandemic. Design Multicentre randomised controlled trial. Setting 8 acute hospitals in Canada. Participants 905 (≥40 years) who resided areas mobile phone coverage and were to be from hospital either RAM (n=451) or (n=454). 903 participants (99.8%) completed 31 day follow-up....
The disease has been demonstrated bacteriologically to appear in epidemic and sporadic form. In cases it is difficult frequently impossible, if severe rapidly fatal, differentiate this form of meningitis from that secondary other infectious diseases, except by lumbar puncture, therefore as yet impossible say how extensively the exists 1880 Eberth supposed he had found micrococcus lanceolatus essential cause disease, since then until about 1895 was generally accepted specific cause,...
<h3>Background:</h3> After nonelective (i.e., semiurgent, urgent and emergent) surgeries, patients discharged from hospitals are at risk of readmissions, emergency department visits or death. During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, we undertaking Post Discharge after Surgery Virtual Care with Remote Automated Monitoring Technology (PVC-RAM) trial to determine if virtual care remote automated monitoring (RAM) compared standard will increase number days adult remain alive home...
<ns3:p>Background Perioperative thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) is commonly used in hepatectomy patients since it opioid-sparing and reduces cardiorespiratory complications. However, TEA has a high failure rate associated with potentially devastating complications (particularly spinal haematoma) the risk increased hepatectomy. Thus, some centres favour systemic opioid-based modalities which, turn, are inferior well-known risks/side-effects. Hence, alternative analgesic methods desirable....

Breast reconstruction is an integral part of breast cancer care. There are 2 main types reconstruction: alloplastic (using implants) and autologous the patient's own tissue). The latter creates a more natural mound avoids long-term need for surgical revision-more often associated with implant-based surgery. deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap considered gold standard approach in reconstruction. However, complications do occur DIEP surgery can stem from poor tissue...

Exchange protein directly activated by cAMP (EPAC) is a signaling implicated in several physiologic and pathophysiologic processes. Following binding of cAMP, EPAC activates small GTPases such as Rap1 to induce downstream effects. In vascular endothelial cells, may have role the regulation permeability, tone angiogenesis. As low oxygen tension initiates many events including those modulated EPAC, we hypothesized that hypoxia regulates expression function human microvascular cells (HMVEC)....
