A cross-sectional study of psoriasis hospitalizations in patients with cardiovascular comorbidities in patients under 60.

There is limited data assessing length of stay, cost of care, and differences in demographic data in hospitalized psoriasis patients with and without cardiovascular disease. Our study compares hospitalized psoriatic patients with and without comorbid cardiovascular disease for differences in length of stay and cost of care, as well as to assess differences in patient demographics. A cross-sectional study of hospital encounters of patients under the age of 60 with psoriasis in the National Inpatient Sample from 2016 to 2020 was performed using univariate analyses and a multivariable logistic regression model.

Administration of particulate oxygen generators improves skeletal muscle contractile function after ischemia-reperfusion injury in the rat hindlimb.

Extended tourniquet application, often associated with battlefield extremity trauma, can lead to severe ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in skeletal muscle. Particulate oxygen generators (POGs) can be directly injected into tissue to supply oxygen to attenuate the effects of I/R injury in muscle. The goal of this study was to investigate the efficacy of a sodium percarbonate (SPO)-based POG formulation in reducing ischemic damage in a rat hindlimb during tourniquet application.
