Intraoperative General Surgery team intervention, early activation of massive transfusion protocol, hemostatic resuscitation, and transfer to ICU resulted in the survival of both patients.

We use this paradigm in clinical trials. The predictions are provided by disease progression models, providing prognostic scores for all the participants as a function of baseline covariates.

This study investigates whether placental characteristics act as moderators or mediators in the association between prenatal exposure to particulate matter (PM) and nitrogen dioxide (NO) and birth weight in twins. The study included 3340 twins (born 2002-2013) from the East Flanders Prospective Twin Survey.
