HbA1c over 8.5% is not predictive of increased infection rate following penile prosthesis implant surgery in diabetic patients with erectile dysfunction by Raidh Talib (14779198)

“…Limitations include retrospective single-centre design and low-infection rates reducing sample number. Penile prosthesis implantation infection rate in a large series of diabetic patients was low with no significant association between haemoglobinA1c level and penile prosthesis implantation infection observed.…”

Effect of the stretch rate during uniaxial testing on the mechanical properties of prolene by Ammouri, A.H.

“…The effectiveness of these grips was illustrated by the fact that none of the failed samples broke at grips. Statistically significant findings suggest an increasing trend for Prolene® stiffness vs. stretch rate (R2 = 0.9679; two-tailed p value = 0.0025) where the stiffness increases 26.2% when increasing the displacement rate from 1 to 500 mm/min. …”

Two-surgeon technique of parenchymal transection contributes to reduced transfusion rate in patients undergoing major hepatectomy by Palavecino, Martin

“…Results Median intra-operative blood loss was 250 cc, and 30-day peri-operative red cell transfusion rate was 27%. On multivariate analysis, factors that significantly predicted increased red cell transfusion rates were female sex, pre-operative hematocrit <30%, platelet count <100,000/mm3, simultaneous resection of other organs, major hepatic resection, use of the Pringle maneuver, and tumors >10 cm. …”
