To evaluate the effects of early aspirin therapy on the mean pulsatility index of both uterine arteries (utA PI) at 1st and 2nd trimester in women at risk of preeclampsia (PE).

Uterine artery (utA) blood flow characteristics were obtained in 315 women, 73 women at risk for PE and early aspirin treatment (group 1), 124 without specific risk factors and no aspirin treatment (group 2) and 118 women with manifest PE (group 3). Omaveloxolone in vitro Mean utA PI of group 1 and group 2 were compared within and between the groups at the 1st and 2nd trimester time points. Furthermore, values at 2nd trimester were compared with those of group 3. Observed to expected mean utA PI ratio (O/E ratio) were calculated for comparison between the groups.

Mean utA PI of group 1 was significantly higher in the 1st trimester compared to group 2 (1.74 vs. 1.47,
 = .0117). In the 2nd trimester mean PI decreased significantly in both groups from 1.74 to 1.16 in group 1 and from 1.47 to 0.90 in group 2 (
 < .0001). Nevertheless, the difference E which is inferior to the decrease observed in women at standard risk for PE. While aspirin improves trophoblast invasion during early second trimester, vascular resistance remains well above average levels. Limited vascular remodeling capacity in the utero-placental perfusion area seems to be the explanation why aspirin does not abrogate PE in all women and has little effect on birth weight. Another explanation might be that a dose of 100 mg aspirin was used as compared to the 150 mg which is recommended today. Our findings underscore the need to study the effects of intervention already during the early stages of trophoblast invasion in the first trimester.
This meta-analysis was performed to assess the association between vegetable and fruit (VF) consumption and biliary cancer risk.

Relevant studies were identified by a search of MEDLINE and Embase databases. The summary relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the highest vs. lowest consumption and dose-response analyses were assessed.

Fourteen studies were eligible. The summary RRs associated with the risk of biliary cancer for the highest vs. lowest were 0.48 (
 = 10; 95% CI 0.22-0.74; Q = 68.27,

< 0.001,
= 86.8%) for vegetable consumption and 0.47 (
 = 13; 95% CI 0.32-0.61; Q = 32.68,

= 0.001,
= 63.3%) for fruit consumption. Dose-response associations were analyzed for every 100 gram/day increment for vegetable (
 = 8; RR = 0.31, 95%CI 0.20-0.47;

= 0.35) and for fruit (
 = 8; RR = 0.89, 95%CI 0.66-1.18;

= 0.20). There was no publication bias among studies (

= 0.53,

= 0.84 for vegetable;

= 0.95,

= 0.64 for fruit).

This meta-analysis indicated that VF consumption may significantly reduce the risk of biliary cancer. Further well-designed prospective studies are warranted to confirm our findings.

As plans are being devised to reinstate elective surgical services, it is important to consider the impact that the pandemic has had and will continue to have on surgical training. We describe the effect COVID-19 has had at all levels of training in the UK within trauma and orthopaedics and evaluate how training might change in the future. We found that the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted trainees within trauma and orthopaedics at all levels of training. It had led to reduced operative exposure, cancellations of examinations and courses, and modifications to speciality recruitment and annual appraisals. This cohort of trainees is witnessing novel methods of delivering orthopaedic services, which will continue to develop and become part of routine practice even once the pandemic has resolved. It will be important to observe the extent to which the rapid changes currently being introduced will impact the personal health, safety, and career progression of current trainees.Data from digitally administered patient reported outcomes (PROs) is used more and more in routine healthcare for long-term conditions as a part of daily clinical practice. This literature study reviews empirical studies of digital PRO to examine patients' reasons for non-use of digitally administered PRO data in routine care. This scoping review searched through PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and PsycINFO databases, reporting on study population, intervention, duration of intervention and motivational factors alongside stated reasons for nonparticipation or dropout for each study. The patients' reasons for not participating, either from study start or by dropout, were analysed through a thematic approach.Fifty-one studies were included, published from 2010 to 2019, mostly from Europe and the Unites States covering different long-term conditions. The reasons for non-use are manifold and cover the themes of ability to use PRO, engagement, emotional distress and technical barriers.Several reasons are given explaining why patients with long-term conditions are not using digitally administered PRO as intended. This should be taken into account in the design phase of digital PRO interventions and considered in conversations with patients during the intervention.
The predictive value of red blood cell distribution width (RDW) in patients in the coronary care unit (CCU) remains unknown. This study aimed to examine the prognostic value of RDW in these patients.

Clinical data were extracted from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-III database. Baseline data were collected within 24 hours after patients' first admission to the CCU. The outcomes of our study were 30-day and 90-day mortality.

A total of 8254 patients were included and their mean age was 66.9 ± 15.8 years (56% were men). For 30-day all-cause mortality, the hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) of the medium RDW (13.7-15.3) and high-RDW groups > 15.3) were 1.72 (1.55, 1.91) and 2.57 (2.33, 2.85), respectively, compared with the reference group in an unadjusted model. This association remained similar in multivariate models. Similar correlations were observed for 90-day all-cause mortality. The areas under the curve of RDW and the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score were 0.
