Metabolic reprogramming of peritoneal mesothelial cells in peritoneal dialysis–associated fibrosis: therapeutic targets and strategies Open
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is considered a life-saving treatment for end-stage renal disease. However, prolonged PD use can lead to the development of peritoneal fibrosis (PF), diminishing its efficacy. Peritoneal mesothelial cells (PMCs) ar…

Geographic and Hospital Variations in the Use of Red Blood Cells and Tranexamic Acid among Total hip and Total Knee Arthroplasty Open
Background: Hemorrhage is a consideration when performing joint replacement surgeries. The utilization of hemostatic agents, such as tranexamic acid (TXA), has proven effective in reducing blood loss. Objectives: We aimed to investigate th…

Degree of Pelvic Rotation in the Coronal Plane on Postoperative Radiographs Obtained after Total Hip Arthroplasty Open
There are many published cup anteversion measurements for postoperative total hip arthroplasty (THA), including Liaw’s, Lewinnek’s, and Murray’s methods. However, most measurements ignore the potential pelvic rotation on radiographs except…
