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. The objective of this study was to evaluate, in our experience over a 10-year period, factors predictive of blood transfusion in patients who underwent liver resection. …”

Global, regional, and national burden of household air pollution, 1990–2021: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 by Fiona B, Bennitt

“…FindingsIn 2021, 2·67 billion (95% uncertainty interval [UI] 2·63–2·71) people, 33·8% (95% UI 33·2–34·3) of the global population, were exposed to HAP from all sources at a mean concentration of 84·2 μg/m3. Although these figures show a notable reduction in the percentage of the global population exposed in 1990 (56·7%, 56·4–57·1), in absolute terms, there has been only a decline of 0·35 billion (10%) from the 3·02 billion people exposed to HAP in 1990. …”
