OBJECTIVE: Central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) are a common, costly, and hazardous healthcare-associated infection in children. In children in whom continued access is critical, salvage of infected central venous catheters (CVCs)...
PURPOSE: Glucose intolerance (GI), defined as either prediabetes or diabetes, promotes cardiovascular events in patients with myocardial infarction (MI). Using the pooled clinical data from patients with MI and GI in the completed ABC and PPAR trials...
OBJECTIVE: Electrical cardioversion is frequently performed to restore sinus rhythm in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). However, AF recurs in many patients and identifying the patients who benefit from electrical cardioversion is di...
Chronic subdural hematomas (CSDHs) frequently affect the elderly population. The postoperative recurrence rate of CSDHs is high, ranging from 3% to 20%. Both qualitative and quantitative analyses have been explored to investigate the mechanisms under...
