(2019)Purpose: The Genesis II Total Knee Arthroplasty with an oxidized zirconium (OxiniumTM) femoral component (Smith & Nephew, Memphis, TN, USA) was introduced in an attempt to reduce polyethylene wear and osteolysis. Methods: ... -
A 9-Year Outcome Study Comparing Cancellous Titanium-Coated Cementless to Cemented Tibial Components of a Single Knee Arthroplasty Design
(2018)Background: The cemented Advance Medial-Pivot total knee arthroplasty (TKA) was designed to reflect contemporary knee kinematics data and has shown satisfactory long-term outcomes. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated ... -
Automated oxygen delivery in hospitalized patients with acute respiratory failure: A pilot study
(2019)Background and Objectives. Despite its' proven benefits, oxygen therapy may be complicated with potential adverse events such as hypoxemia or hyperoxia-driven hypercapnia. Automated oxygen delivery systems may aid in ... -
Balloon Angioplasty Versus Stenting for the Treatment of Failing Arteriovenous Grafts: A Meta-Analysis
(2018)Purpose: To assess the outcomes of plain balloon angioplasty versus stenting for the treatment of failed or malfunctioning chronic haemodialysis arteriovenous grafts (AVGs). Methods: A systematic search of the literature ... -
The choice of drainage device in complicated glaucomas: Comparing Ahmed and Baerveldt implants
(2019)Background/Aim: Glaucoma is a chronic and progressive optic neuropathy which leads to deterioration of visual function. It is estimated to be the second leading cause of severe vision loss and blindness worldwide. Failure ... -
Comparison of continuous intradermal with simple interrupted suture pattern: an experimental study in dogs
(2020)The aim of the study was to compare incisional wound healing in intradermal and simple interrupted suture patterns. Ten dogs were included. Surgically created skin incisions were apposed with (a) continuous intradermal ... -
Complexity of persistent type II endoleak associated with sac expansion after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair
(2015)Type II endoleak after endovascular aortic aneurysm repair still remains the Achilles’ heel of the treatment, the source of which regularly is difficult to identify and treat. We present a patient with a persistent type ... -
Considerations regarding embryo culture conditions: From media to epigenetics
(2018)There are numerous reports on embryo culture media and conditions in the laboratory, as the subject is multifaceted and complex, reflecting the variation in practice. In this scoping review, we attempt to approach the topic ... -
Current status of endovascular treatment of aortoenteric fistula
(2017)Aortoenteric fistula (AEF) is one of the most challenging diagnostic and therapeutic entities in vascular surgery. AEF can occur either primarily involving the aorta and the gastrointestinal tract or, more commonly, secondary ... -
Devices and tasks involved in the objective assessment of standing dynamic balancing – A systematic literature review
(2017)Background: Static balancing assessment is often complemented with dynamic balancing tasks. Numerous dynamic balancing assessment methods have been developed in recent decades with their corresponding balancing devices and ... -
DIANA-tarbase and DIANA suite tools: Studying experimentally supported microRNA targets
(2016)microRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs (~22 nts) present in animals, plants, and viruses. They are considered central post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression and are key components in a great number of ... -
Double fixation for abdominal aortic aneurysm repair using AFX body and Endurant proximal aortic cuff: Mid-term results
(2017)Our goal was to evaluate the use of an AFX main body combined with an Endurant proximal aortic cuff to treat selected patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) associated with anatomical challenges, such as a small ... -
