چکیده

PSRC Abstract Supplement P oter P rofs gel concentrations. Mechanical tests were carried out with an indentation test, and the deformation distance of the gel construct was used as an indicator of relative gel stiffness. A total of 5 different concentrations were used with relative stiffness including: <1, 5, 9, 18 and 25 kPa. The 3D gels were cultured as a single droplet on a 48-well suspension cell culture plate with exchange of fresh media and 100ng/ mL of VEGF-A/C every 2–3 days. The gels were directly observed daily under the light microscope and recorded.

Survival of patients undergoing surgery for metastatic spinal tumours and the impact of surgical site infection.

BACKGROUND Patients with metastatic spinal tumours have a limited prognosis. Surgical complications that may result in prolonged hospitalization or readmission are highly undesirable. Surgical site infection (SSI) is one such complication, which can, in extreme cases, lead to death. AIM To assess the impact of SSI on patient survival after surgery for spinal metastases. METHODS Demographic,...
