Background And Objective: We evaluated the effectiveness of injecting autologous adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs) into plaque in men with chronic Peyronie's disease (PD).
Methods: This pilot safety study recruited 22 Danish men with chronic PD from an outpatient clinic. Patients received one bolus of ADRCs injected into plaque, with follow-ups at 1, 3, 6, and 12 mo.
Background: Patients undergoing major lower extremity amputation (LEA) due to vascular disease face an increased risk of post-surgery anxiety and depression. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), widely used to identify anxiety and depressive symptoms, has been translated into Danish, but its content validity has not previously been tested in LEA patients. This study aims to test the validity and reliability of HADS in this population.

We have recorded the gas phase spectrum of isoprene at room temperature from the mid-infrared range and into the visible range (600 cm to 17050 cm). Absorption spectra were obtained by Fourier transform infrared, conventional dispersion ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared and cavity ring-down spectroscopy to cover the entire range with a resolution comparable to that of the instruments on the James Webb Space Telescope. We have assigned the CH-stretching fundamental and overtone bands corresponding to the Δv=1-6 transitions based on anharmonic vibrational calculations using normal mode and local mode models, for the lower- and higher-energy regions, respectively.

Although this role has been implemented for faculty and students within the medical field, it has not been described in residency programs. The Ombudsperson for house staff is distinct from institutional or programmatic leadership.

However, we still lack knowledge on the association of PFOA severity on patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) after mUKA. We aimed to examine the association between PFOA severity and PROM-score changes after mUKA.
