Evidence comparing fibrin sealants (FSs) in surgery are limited. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of FSs, and manual compression in peripheral vascular surgery.
A systematic review of randomized trials was conducted in Medline, Embase, and Cochrane databases within the last 15 years. Data were available to conduct a network meta-analysis (NMA) in peripheral vascular surgery. Fibrin sealant treatment arms were further broken-down and assessed by clotting time (i.e., 2-min [2C] or 1-min [1C]). The primary efficacy outcome was the proportion of patients achieving hemostasis by 4min (T4). Treatment-related serious and non-serious adverse events (AEs) were qualitatively assessed.
Five studies (n=693), were included in the NMA. Results predicted VISTASEAL 2C, followed by EVICEL 1C, had the highest probability of achieving T4. Compared with manual compression, significant improvements in T4 were found with VISTASEAL 2C (relative risk [RR]=2.67, 95% CrI 2.13-3.34), EVICEL 1C (RR=2.58, 95% CrI 2.04-3.23), VISTASEAL 1C (RR=2.00, 95% CrI 1.45-2.65), and TISSEEL 2C (RR=1.99, 95% CrI 1.48-2.60). TISSEEL 1C was not significantly different than manual compression (RR=1.40, 95% CrI 0.70-2.33). Among FSs, VISTASEAL 2C was associated with a significant improvements in T4 compared with VISTASEAL 1C (RR=1.33, 95% CrI 1.02-1.82), TISSEEL 2C (RR=1.34, 95% CrI 1.05-1.77), and TISSEEL 1C (RR=1.90, 95% CrI 1.18-3.74). Treatment-related serious and non-serious AE rates were typically lower than 2%.
In peripheral vascular surgeries, VISTASEAL 2C and EVICEL 1C were shown to have the highest probabilities for achieving rapid hemostasis among the treatments compared. Future studies should expand networks across surgery types as data become available.

The three-part question addressed was in patient with Whipple's procedure which anastomotic technique has lower leak rate pancreaticogastostomy (PG) or pancreatojejunostomy (PJ)? Using the reported search, 38 articles were found; out of this six studies were deemed to be suitable to answer the question. The outcomes assessed were incidence of anastomotic leaks (pancreatic fistula) in both techniques PG and PJ. In conclusion, the best evidence showed that PG anastomosis has lower incidence of pancreatic fistula in comparison to PJ anastomosis.A best evidence topic has been constructed using a described protocol. The three-part question addressed was In patient undergoing open mesh repair of incisional hernia, is there any difference in the rate of seroma between Sublay and Onlay technique? The best evidence showed that Sublay repair has a lower seroma rate in comparison to onlay repair.
Statin eligibility based on the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association cholesterol guidelines among patients with diabetes admitted with first time acute myocardial infarction has not been evaluated in the Middle East.
To assess statin eligibility for diabetic patients admitted with first time myocardial infarction in Jordan according to ACC/AHA guidelines.
Consecutive patients admitted with a first acute myocardial infarction who were not taking statins, and had their serum lipoproteins measured upon hospital admission were enrolled in the study. Statin eligibility among patients with diabetes admitted with first time myocardial infarction was determined based on the ACC/AHA guidelines.
Of 774 patients enrolled, 292 (37.30%) had diabetes. Compared with non-diabetic patients, those with diabetes were females, older, more hypertension, more hypercholesterolemia, more triglycerides, more diastolic blood pressure, less smokers and less low density lipoprotein. Among patients with diabesignificant association with diabetes.
190 mg/dl or aged 40-75 years old and they have their LDL 70-189 mg/gl. More efforts should be taken for patients who are female, older than 50 years, hypertensive, elevated diastolic blood pressure have hypercholesterolemia, and elevated triglycerides because of their significant association with diabetes.
Spontaneous uterine rupture before onset of labour is extremely rare. This is even more so in the second trimester of pregnancy, in nulliparous women and in the absence of myometrial surgery. The initial presentation of this potentially catastrophic event may be non-specific, with upper or lower abdominal discomfort, vague gastrointestinal or urinary symptoms preceding rapid deterioration.
This case report demonstrates that a high index of suspicion, rapid diagnosis aided by imaging modalities and immediate surgical intervention are crucial steps in successful management. A postulated etiology in our patient is that of an upper scar from a previous uterine curettage with abnormal placentation predisposing to spontaneous rupture.
A case of spontaneous uterine rupture at 16 week's gestation in a multiparous, 32 year old patient with no history of myometrial surgery. click here She had presented with lower abdominal discomfort, progressing to severe pain with hypotension and tachycardia. An urgent ultrasound pelvis showed a live fetus, free intra-peritoneal fluid with blood clots. An emergency laparotomy performed revealed 2L of hemoperitoneum, with the fetus intact in the amniotic sac. The uterine fundal rupture was successfully repaired.
Despite the gestation, in women presenting with symptoms and signs suggestive of acute abdomen and hemodynamic instability, prompt resuscitation must be instituted, and a high index of suspicion for rupture must be suspected.

The three-part question addressed was In a patient with symptomatic gallstone disease does the presence of a large sized gallstone associated with a higher risk of gallbladder cancer? Using the reported search, 3876 papers were found. 6 studies were deemed to be suitable to answer the question. The outcome assessed was the relationship between the presence of large sized gallstones and the risk of gallbladder cancer. It appears from the current available evidence that there is a strong association of a large sized gallstones and gallbladder cancer. Larger stones (>3 cm) have the greatest risk to develop gallbladder cancer, especially in symptomatic gallstone disease patients. Authors recommend special care for this patient's group and to warrant cholecystectomy when the clinical condition allows.
