Review of the most significant surveys (data base: Pub Med on September 2003) of elective open surgery for Juxtarenal aneurysms and personal results of 106 cases (9.3% of AAA consecutively operated in the last 11 yrs.) are reported. Mortality and morbidity are discussed related to: technique of aortic cross-clamping; protective measures on splanchnic and renal perfusion; risks from previous CAD and chronic renal failure. Over all, the main predictive factor is the accuracy of the selected technique, without any difference among different approaches, and the same results of infrarenal aneurysms can be obtained.

Design: This was a randomized controlled study.
Methods: A group of 322 patients undergoing elective open cardiac surgery were randomly allocated to receive either music combined with preoperative education (the experimental group) or routine preoperative preparation (the control group).
Patient-Reported Fatigue Associated with Joint Histopathology in Rheumatoid Arthritis.
ACR Open Rheumatol
January 2025
Hospital for Special Surgery and Weill Cornell Medicine, New York City, New York.
Objective: Fatigue is important for patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) but is poorly understood. We sought to study associations of fatigue with clinical features, disease activity, and synovial histology.
Methods: Patients meeting the American College of Rheumatology/EULAR 1987 and/or 2010 RA criteria were recruited before elective total joint replacement.
Elective pelvic nodal irradiation for elderly patients with high-risk prostate cancer: A more patient-oriented approach.

The role of elective pelvic nodal irradiation (EPNI) for high-risk prostate cancer (hrPC) management is still an open issue, especially for the elderly patients. It is unclear whether older patients can experience the same benefit from the treatment strategies used for younger men. Hence, in absence of solid data, it appears reasonable to pursuit a shared decision-making process so that older patients can express their informed preferences about the different treatment options.

March 2024
Department of Surgery, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA.
Introduction: Repair of midsize (4-6 cm) ventral hernias is challenging given lack of guidelines. Within this context, we sought to characterize surgical approach among patients undergoing repair of midsize ventral hernias within the only population-level, clinically-nuanced hernia registry in the US.
Methods: Retrospective cohort study of patients undergoing ventral hernia repair in the Michigan Surgical Quality Collaborative Core Optimization Hernia Registry (MSQC-COHR).
Expression of Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) and p53 on Human Fetal Lung After Chorioamnionitis Suffering.
Cureus
December 2024
Laboratory of Histology-Embryology, Faculty of Health Sciences, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, GRC.
Introduction: Maternal infections such as chorioamnionitis could impact fetal lung development by altering cell proliferation and apoptosis. Chorioamnionitis favors the multiple pleiotropic cytokines production such as LIF (leukemia inhibitory factor) and an inflammation-related protein p53. The cytokine production can lead to lung tissue damage and lung disease development.
