Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the dynamics of healthcare in the USA. In early 2020, most states issued orders to stop non-emergent elective surgeries. This contracted the overall revenue generated by the hospital systems.

We hypothesized that AFA would modulate the host response to improve ADM incorporation in VHR. Lewis rats underwent chronic VHR with porcine ADM alone or with AFA augmentation.

Article Synopsis
- - The combination of sarcoidosis and obesity creates complicated challenges for patients seeking surgical options to lose weight.
- - Clinicians need to carefully consider how these two conditions interact, as it affects both the surgery and overall patient care.
- - This manuscript discusses important strategies for managing sarcoidosis patients before and after they undergo bariatric surgery.
Article Synopsis
- Idiopathic noncirrhotic portal hypertension (INCPH) can show specific histologic changes in liver biopsies, even when there's no cirrhosis present.
- In a study of 81 liver biopsies, common features of INCPH were found in a majority of samples, with 90% showing at least one characteristic and 10% displaying multiple features despite normal portal pressure.
- Understanding these histologic features within the correct clinical context is crucial for accurate diagnosis and patient management.
Background: Management of splenic trauma has evolved, with current practice favoring selective angiographic embolization and non-operative treatment over immediate splenectomy. Defining the optimal selection criteria for the appropriate management strategy remains an important question.
Methods: This retrospective registry review was conducted at a Level I trauma center.
Background: Warfarin and antiplatelet agents (WAA) are prevalent among trauma patients, but the impact of these agents on patient outcomes has not been clearly defined. In this study, we examined the impact of preinjury WAA on outcomes in trauma patients.
Methods: A 40-month (September 2004 to December 2007) retrospective review of data in the trauma registry at a New York State level 1 trauma center was performed.
