Thromboelastometry and organ failure in trauma patients: a prospective cohort study.
Crit Care
December 2014
Department of Intensive Care Medicine, Academic Medical Center, Meibergdreef 9, 1105 AZ, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Introduction: Data on the incidence of a hypercoagulable state in trauma, as measured by thromboelastometry (ROTEM), is limited and the prognostic value of hypercoagulability after trauma on outcome is unclear. We aimed to determine the incidence of hypercoagulability after trauma, and to assess whether early hypercoagulability has prognostic value on the occurrence of multiple organ failure (MOF) and mortality.
Methods: This was a prospective observational cohort study in trauma patients who met the highest trauma level team activation.
Cervical ectopy: associations with sexually transmitted infections and HIV. A cross-sectional study of high school students in rural South Africa.
Sex Transm Infect
March 2015
Department of Gynecology, OUH, Norway.
Objectives: It has been hypothesised that ectopy may be associated with increased susceptibility to sexually transmitted infections (STIs). In this cross-sectional study, we wanted to explore the association between STIs (including HIV) and cervical ectopy.
Methods: We included 700 sexually active young women attending randomly selected high schools in a rural district in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
