The HEARTSTRING device allows a secure proximal anastomosis, but one device is typically used for each anastomosis. We report a technique to make multiple proximal anastomoses with one HEARTSTRING suture device. doi: 10.1111/jocs.12706 (J Card Surg 2016;31:206-207).

Geriatric femoral neck fractures are common orthopaedic injuries, which are associated with a high morbidity and mortality. Arthroplasty is the optimum treatment for many of these injuries, but debate exists regarding optimal surgical strategy. Multiple recent investigations have demonstrated strong superiority for cemented stems as compared with noncemented fixation with a decreased risk of periprosthetic fracture, shorter length of stay, lower cost, and decreased rate for revision surgery.

Chemical release data are essential for performing chemical risk assessments to understand the potential exposures arising from industrial processes. Often, these data are unknown or unavailable and must be estimated. A case study of volatile organic compound releases during extrusion-based additive manufacturing is used here to explore the viability of various regression methods for predicting chemical releases to inform chemical assessments.

Background: Autosomal Dominant Optic Atrophy (ADOA) is a hereditary optic neuropathy characterized by retinal ganglion cell degeneration and optic nerve fiber loss. This study examined the correlation between clinical and structural parameters in patients with ADOA using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and explored potential clinical biomarkers.
Methods: A cross-sectional, case-control observational study included 27 patients with ADOA and 27 age- and sex-matched healthy controls.
