Impact dynamics of granular debris flows based on a small-scale physical model.

The peak pressure of a granular debris flow at low Froude conditions can be calculated with knowledge of the stress anisotropy and the bulk density as well as the run-up height at impact. Based on a small-scale physical model, measurements of stress anisotropy and flow density values at impact are presented and applied to existing run-up prediction models, and further compared with back-calculated run-up coefficients from measured maximum impact pressures. For this purpose, we conducted 17 experiments with impact measurements and six experiments without impact measurements at Froude numbers, ranging from 0.

Rescue From Permanent Kidney Injury in Acute Thrombosis of Both Renal Veins, the Inferior Vena Cava, and Both Iliofemoral Veins by Catheter-Based Thrombectomy.

Case: A 33-year-old man with previously diagnosed lupus membranous nephropathy presented with painful swelling in both legs. Laboratory tests revealed acute kidney injury, and imaging studies by duplex ultrasound and computed tomography scan showed acute thrombosis of both renal veins, the infrahepatic inferior vena cava, and both iliofemoral venous segments. Initially, pharmacomechanical thrombolysis led to an insufficient morphological result.

Austrian consensus on the diagnosis and management of portal hypertension in advanced chronic liver disease (Billroth IV).

The Billroth IV consensus was developed during a consensus meeting of the Austrian Society of Gastroenterology and Hepatology (ÖGGH) and the Austrian Society of Interventional Radiology (ÖGIR) held on the 26th of November 2022 in Vienna.Based on international recommendations and considering recent landmark studies, the Billroth IV consensus provides guidance regarding the diagnosis and management of portal hypertension in advanced chronic liver disease.
