The Association between Sociodemographic Factors and Delays to Minimally Invasive Surgery for Stage IA-IIIA Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
Ann Thorac Surg
December 2024
University of Colorado, Department of Surgery, Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Aurora, CO.
Background: Surgical resection is the gold standard treatment for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Prior studies have found that delayed treatment carries risk of disease progression. However, factors that predict delay to surgery are relatively understudied.

Perioper Med (Lond)
December 2024
Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative & Pain Medicine, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, 1 Gustave Levy Place, Klingenstein Clinical Center, 8th Floor, New York, NY, 10029, USA.
Background: Racial and ethnic disparities in the treatment of perioperative pain have not been well-studied, despite being observed in a variety of other medical settings. The goal of this investigation was to evaluate the relationship between race and ethnicity and intra- and postoperative opioid administration for patients undergoing open liver resection surgery.
Methods: In this single-center retrospective cohort study, adult patients undergoing open liver resection from January 2012 to May 2019 were identified.
Is Vertebral Artery Injury After Blunt Cervical Spine Trauma an Incidental Finding?
Clin Spine Surg
November 2024
Department of Surgery and Perioperative Care, Dell Medical School, The University of Texas at Austin.
Article Synopsis
- The study is a retrospective cohort analysis aimed at understanding how vertebral artery injury (VAI) affects adverse events in patients with blunt cervical spine trauma.
- It reviewed data from over 128,000 patients, highlighting that those with VAI faced significantly higher risks of major complications like myocardial infarction, stroke, and longer hospital stays.
- The findings suggest that VAI is linked to more severe injuries, indicating a need for careful monitoring and management of these patients in clinical settings.
Association between coexisting hypertension, dyslipidaemia and elevated C reactive protein with cardiovascular disease and mortality: a cross-sectional and longitudinal analysis in a representative cohort of older US adults.
BMJ Public Health
July 2024
Survey Research Center, Institute for Social Research, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.
Objective: Hypertension and dyslipidemia are established risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD), but are often insufficient alone in predicting CVD. Inflammation also contributes to CVD, but research on the co-occurrence of inflammation, hypertension, and dyslipidemia and CVD risk is limited. Knowledge of inflammatory status in addition to other risk factors is vital for clinicians to correctly evaluate patients for CVD risk.

JACC Heart Fail
November 2024
Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, California, USA. Electronic address:
Background: Donor-recipient heart size matching is crucial in heart transplantation; however, the often-used predicted heart mass (PHM) ratio may be inaccurate in the setting of obesity.
Objectives: In this study, the authors sought to investigate the association between echocardiographically measured donor left ventricular mass (LVM) for heart size matching and the risk of the primary 1-year composite outcome of death or retransplantation.
Methods: The Donor Heart Study was a prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study that collected echocardiograms from brain-dead donors.
