We wished to determine whether total knee replacement (TKA) performed by young surgeons increased rates of mortality and complications compared with TKA performed by senior surgeons using the same model of arthroplasty. There were no significant pre-operative differences between the groups in terms of age, gender, height, weight, body mass index, diagnosis, comorbidity and duration of follow-up...
A recently developed cognitive-behavioral treatment for generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) targets intolerance of uncertainty by the reevaluation of positive beliefs about worry, problem-solving training, and cognitive exposure. As previous studies have established the treatment's efficacy when delivered individually, the present study tests the treatment in a group format as a way to enhance i...
This study primarily aimed to estimate the association between influenza vaccination and the occurrence of hospitalization for acute respiratory or cardiovascular diseases, or all-cause death during the influenza season in an elderly population in South Africa. We conducted a nested case-control study using data from a cohort of 45 522 elderly members of a private medical funding organization d...
Under this light, it is worrisome that roughly 80% of patients included in our cohort received this treatment (and were exposed to the risk of treatment-related side-effects) without any benefits in terms of cancer-specific survival at 8-year follow-up [2]. These observations have also profound implications in terms of expenditures for the health care system. Indeed, the adoption of IMRT result...
OBJECTIVE Several clinical trials of cardiovascular disease prevention with statins have reported increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) with statin therapy. However, participants in these studies were at relatively low risk for diabetes. Further, diabetes was often based on self-report and was not the primary outcome. It is unknown whether statins similarly modify diabetes risk in higher ris...
BACKGROUND Patient satisfaction is a major factor in determining success in aesthetic surgery. To the authors' knowledge, a long-term study measuring patient satisfaction with face-lift surgery has not been published. The authors' study was designed to measure patient satisfaction with the overall experience of a face lift and to assess the patient's level of satisfaction 10 to 15 years after s...
In a prospective long-term follow-up of 84 patients 21 years after first hospitalisation for anorexia nervosa, we found that 50.6% had achieved a full recovery, 10.4% still met full diagnostic criteria for anorexia nervosa, and 15.6% had died from causes related to anorexia nervosa. Predictors of outcome included physical, social, and psychological variables.
BACKGROUND Little is reported about the role of medical management in the treatment of spinal arachnoid diverticula (SAD) in dogs. OBJECTIVES To describe the outcome of 96 dogs treated medically or surgically for SAD. ANIMALS Ninety-six dogs with SAD. METHODS Retrospective case series. Medical records were searched for spinal arachnoid diverticula and all dogs with information on treatmen...
BACKGROUND Mesalazine seems to be effective in preventing recurrence of acute uncomplicated diverticulitis (AUD), but the optimal mesalazine scheme to achieve these results is still debated. AIM To assess the effectiveness of two different mesalazine-based treatments in preventing recurrence of AUD and the occurrence of other complications of diverticular disease (DD) during a long-term follo...
A large facial vascular malformation was embolized with polyvinyl alcohol particles twice in 8 years. Resected tissue enabled long-term examination of this material, confirming its chemical inertness and revealing minimal tissue reaction to it apart from calcification. No particle migration, fragmentation, or absorption occurred. There was some recanalization of occluded vessels. Most vessels c...
