Optimal management, prevalence, and clinical behavior of saddle pulmonary embolism: A systematic review and meta-analysis by Fateen Ata (12217764)

“…In a multivariate logistic regression model, massive PE features significantly increased the odds of death (OR: 29.3, CI: 4.86–181.81, p < 0.001), whereas, treatment with anticoagulation (AC) alone (OR: 0.1, CI: 0.027–0.356, p < 0.001), TT (OR: 0.065, CI: 0.019–0.26, p < 0.001), surgical thrombectomy (ST) (OR: 0.047, CI: (0.010–0.23), p < 0.001), or percutaneous thrombectomy (PT) (OR: 0.12, CI: 0.020–0.84, p = 0.032) significantly decreased odds of death.…”

Direct Oral Anticoagulants Compared to Warfarin in Patients with Intermediate‐ to High‐Risk Pulmonary Embolism: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis by Mohamed Nabil Elshafei (9960500)

“…Direct oral anticoagulants were associated with comparable recurrence and mortality rates versus warfarin (odds ratio [OR] 0.72, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.15–3.43) and (OR 0.57, 95% CI 0.16–2.01), respectively. There was no significant difference in the safety outcomes (major and minor bleeding events), with a trend towards a decreased risk among direct oral anticoagulant treated cohorts (OR 0.3, 95% CI 0.08–1.1) and (OR 0.64, 95% CI 0.24–1.7), respectively.…”

An imageable retinoid acid derivative to detect human cancer xenografts and study therapeutic dosing to reduce its toxicity by Wang, Wei

“…Those agents will specifically target the disease markers for diagnosis and apply the biologically effective dose for treatment. Retinoids regulate a multitude of biological processes. In addition, retinoic acid can reverse premalignancy, significantly decrease second primary tumors and provide a treatment benefit in head and neck, lung, esophagus, colon and bladder cancer. …”

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

“…This difference is because patients treated at such centers often present with large tumor size,8 underlying liver disease,9 and chemotherapy-associated hepatic toxicity.10 In an effort to reduce the need for blood transfusions in patients undergoing liver resection, we developed a 2-surgeon technique to optimize parenchymal transection.11 In our preliminary series,11 the combined use of saline-linked cautery and ultrasonic dissection was shown to be safe and to reduce blood loss, operation time, and time of inflow occlusion. …”
