A comprehensive review of the evidence exploring the outcomes of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) guidelines has not been completed....
To evaluate if ERAS guidelines are associated with improved hospital length of stay, hospital readmission, complications, and mortality compared with usual surgical care, and to understand differences...
MEDLINE, Embase, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and Cochrane Central were searched from inception until June 2021....
Titles, abstracts, and full-text articles were screened by 2 independent reviewers. Eligible studies were randomized clinical trials that examined ERAS-guided surgery compared with a control group and...
Data were abstracted in duplicate using a standardized data abstraction form. The study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses. Risk of bias was assessed in du...
The primary outcomes were hospital length of stay, hospital readmission within 30 days of index discharge, 30-day postoperative complications, and 30-day postoperative mortality....
Of the 12 047 references identified, 1493 full texts were screened for eligibility, 495 were included in the systematic review, and 74 RCTs with 9076 participants were included in the meta-analysis. I...
In this meta-analysis, ERAS guidelines were associated with decreased hospital length of stay and complications. Future studies should aim to improve implementation of ERAS and increase the reach of t...
FOXP3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells are necessary to coordinate resolution of lung inflammation and a return to homeostasis after respiratory viral infections, but the specific molecular requirements for...
Lower-extremity injuries can result in severe impairment and substantial years lived with a disability. Persistent pain and psychological distress are risk factors for poor long-term outcomes and nega...
A multicenter, randomized controlled trial was conducted involving 325 patients who were 18 to 60 years of age and had at least 1 acute orthopaedic injury to the lower extremity or to the pelvis or ac...
The mean treatment effect on the 12-month baseline change in PROMIS PF was 0.94 (95% confidence interval, -0.68 to 2.64; p = 0.23). There were also no observed differences in secondary outcomes betwee...
The telephone-delivered CBPT did not appear to yield any benefits for patients with traumatic lower-extremity injuries in terms of physical function, pain intensity, pain interference, or general heal...
Therapeutic Level I. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence....
Surgical patients are at risk of postoperative complications, which may lead to increased morbidity, mortality, hospital length-of-stay and healthcare costs. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS®) pr...
A national online survey of anaesthetists, surgeons and nurses was undertaken. Invitations to participate were distributed via emails from professional colleges. The 30-item survey captured respondent...
The sample included 178 responses (116 nurses, 65.2%; 36 surgeons, 20.2%; 26 anaesthetists, 14.6%) across six states and two territories. More than half (n = 104; 58.8%) had used ERAS protocols in pat...
There is a need to promote ERAS and provide education, which may be nuanced based on the results, to improve implementation in Australia. Nurses particularly need to be engaged in ERAS protocols given...
The biofilm sequencing batch reactor (BSBR) technique has been deployed in the laboratory to enrich phosphorus from simulated wastewater, but it is still not clear what its performance will be when re...
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) is a critical therapy for haematological malignancy but may lead to acute and chronic graft versus host disease (GvHD). T-cell depletion with alemtuzumab, ei...
The aim was to assess the early recovery of NK cells in 18 consecutive patients receiving ex vivo T-cell depleted SCT and to compare the results to 25 individuals receiving haploidentical non-T cell d...
All patients received myeloablative conditioning. After stem cell collection, the stem cells of the T cell depleted group were treated "in the bag" with alemtuzumab (CAMPATH 1H) at a concentration of ...
The recovery of lymphocytes was slow in both groups. Those receiving non-T cell depleted grafts had significantly higher T cell counts at day 21 and 28 when compared to the T cell depleted group (P < ...
This study of ex vivo T-cell depleted SCT's demonstrates that NK cells recover quicker when compared to those receiving unfractionated grafts. These results may have implications for GvHD and the GvL ...
In this study, we have investigated the potential use of post-consumer primary lithium metal batteries (LMBs) commonly used in portable electronic devices to recover lithium and manganese in the form ...
We investigated the recovery of the Japanese orthopedic association back pain evaluation questionnaire (JOABPEQ) scores and 6 min walk distance (6MWD) in patients after surgery for lumbar spinal steno...
A total of 227 patients (average age 71.5 years; SD: 7.5; 121 men) were included from a single center. The outcome measures were JOABPEQ, visual analog scale (VAS), and 6MWD and obtained preoperativel...
The JOABPEQ, VAS, and 6MWD scores generally improved at 1 month postoperatively compared with those obtained preoperatively, and some parameters further improved at 3 months. However, improvement in t...
Our results demonstrated the early postoperative recovery course of JOABPEQ and 6MWD. In the fusion group, significant changes in lumbar spine dysfunction started at 6 months postoperatively. These fi...
Sleep disturbances are not only frequent symptoms, but also risk factors for major depressive disorder. We previously reported that depressed patients who experienced "Hypersomnia" showed a higher and...
Thirty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to sham treatment, 72-h sleep deprivation, or sleep deprivation and subsequent follow-up for one week. Approximately half of the animals were sacrif...
Prolonged sleep deprivation led to adrenal hypertrophy and an increase in the plasma corticosterone level, which had returned to normal after one week follow-up. Of note, sleep deprivation-induced dec...
The present study did not record electroencephalogram or assess behavioral changes of the sleep-deprived rats....
The present study demonstrated that prolonged sleep deprivation-induced adversities are reversed or recovered by sleep rebound, which supports "Hypersomnia" in depressed patients as having a beneficia...
This research aims to maximize the extraction of phenolic compounds (PCs) from almond hull waste (AHW) using an ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) method, detect the PCs, and investigate the antimic...
