Background And Objectives: Volume replacement technique is a good option for Asian women with small to moderate-sized breasts undergoing partial mastectomy for breast cancer. We analyzed the oncologic outcomes of this procedure in a single center.
Methods: Seventy-two patients with breast cancer underwent partial mastectomy with volume replacement technique in this prospective study. Volume replacement techniques were tailored individually according to the volume of excised breast and tumor location. The mean duration of follow-up was 40.9 months. We analyzed association between various clinicopathologic factors and locoregional recurrence, distant metastasis and assessed cosmetic outcomes.
Results: The incidences of locoregional recurrence and distant metastasis were 2.8% and 5.6%, respectively. According to multivariate analysis, history of contralateral breast cancer (P < 0.001) and fat necrosis (P = 0.002) significantly associated with incidence of locoregional recurrence and pathologic tumor size (P = 0.037) and stage (P = 0.048) significantly influenced the incidence of distant metastasis.
Conclusion: From an oncologic perspective, volume replacement procedures after partial mastectomy are an appropriate form of surgical management of breast cancer.

Introduction: Sepsis is an uncontrolled systemic response to infection that leads to life-threatening organ dysfunction. The in-hospital mortality rate remains significantly high in septic shock patients with malignancies. This study investigates whether early and high-volume administration of sodium bicarbonate during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) can reduce 28-day mortality, increase shock reversal rates, and shorten the duration of CRRT, mechanical ventilation, and intensive care unit (ICU) stays.

Background: Several health care networks have fully adopted second-generation supraglottic airway (SGA) i-gel. Real-world evidence of enhanced patient safety after such practice change is lacking. We hypothesized that the implementation of i-gel compared to the previous LMA®-Unique™ would be associated with a lower risk of airway-related safety events.

This study investigated the effects of different formulations on the technological and sensory properties of bread. The bread formulation included 9 variations of sourdough treatments and 4 variations of wheat flour and oat flour percentages. Results demonstrated that the highest increase in dough volume occurred in samples containing sourdough made from wheat, oat, , and at 64.
