Background
Evidence associates various biometric and histological variables such as steatosis and absence of fibrosis as risk factors for post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). Following distal pancreatectomy (DP), the association between these factors and POPF is less clear. This study of patients, drawn from the same background population, undergoing PD or DP at a single centre is a comparative study of the risk factors for POPF after these two operations.Methods
Associations between POPF and patient characteristics, pre-operative blood tests, data from pre-operative computed tomography (CT) imaging, assessment of histological steatosis and fibrosis were explored.Results
26/107 (24%) and 26/90 (29%) patients developed POPF after PD and DP respectively. Absence of fibrosis was associated with POPF (p < 0.001) after PD and its presence correlated with pancreatic duct width (p < 0.001). Steatosis was not associated with POPF (p = 0.910). Multivariable analysis showed pancreatic duct width (p = 0.016) and fibrosis (p = 0.025) to be independent predictors of POPF after PD. The only variable associated with POPF after DP was underlying pathology (p = 0.005).Conclusion
Pancreatic duct width is the most important variable related to POPF after PD and is correlated with fibrosis. Steatosis was not related to POPF. In contrast, after DP POPF appears to be related to the underlying disease. 相似文献2.

Background
This systematic review aimed to define the outcomes of different pancreatic resection procedures for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) associated pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNENs).Methods
A search of PubMed, MEDLINE and SCOPUS databases were performed in accordance with PRISMA guidelines.Results
Twenty-seven studies including 533 patients undergoing initial pancreatic resection for MEN1 associated pNENs were included in this systematic review. Three hundred and sixty-six (68.7%) distal pancreatectomies (DP), 120 (22.5%) sole enucleations (SE) and 47 (8.8%) pancreaticoduodenectomies (PD) were identified. SE was associated with a higher rate of recurrence than DP (25/67, 37% vs 40/190, 21% respectively, P?=?0.008) but a lower rate of endocrine insufficiency than PD (1/20, 5% vs 8/21, 38% respectively, P?=?0.010). A meta-analysis of major pancreatic resections (PD or DP) vs SE in 15 studies showed that SE is associated with an increased rate of recurrence (Major resection 42/184, 23% vs SE 20/53, 38% RR 0.65 CI 0.43–0.96?P?=?0.032) but reduced rate of postoperative endocrine insufficiency (Resection 37/93, 40% vs SE 0/24, 0% RR 7.37 CI 1.57–34.64?P?=?0.008). Similarly, insulinomas and functional pNENs overall had lower rates of recurrence and reoperation with major resection. There was no difference in the reoperation rates or survival outcomes after SE compared with major pancreatic resections at follow-up (pooled overall mean duration: 85 months).Conclusion
Major pancreatic resections for MEN1 associated pNENs have a lower risk of recurrence and a higher risk of postoperative endocrine insufficiency when compared to sole enucleation, but a similar rate of reoperation and survival. 相似文献3.

Background
Centralization of pancreatic resections is advocated due to a volume-outcome association. Pancreatic surgery is in Norway currently performed only in five teaching hospitals. The aim was to describe the short-term outcomes after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) within the current organizational model and to assess for regional disparities.Methods
All patients who underwent PD in Norway between 2012 and 2016 were identified. Mortality (90 days) and relaparotomy (30 days) were assessed for predictors including demographic data and multi-visceral or vascular resection. Aggregated length-of-stay and national and regional incidences of the procedure were also analysed.Results
A total of 930 patients underwent PD during the study period. In-hospital mortality occurred in 20 patients (2%) and 34 patients (4%) died within 90 days. Male gender, age, multi-visceral resection and relaparotomy were independent predictors of 90-day mortality. Some 131 patients (14%) had a relaparotomy, with male gender and multi-visceral resection as independent predictors. There was no difference between regions in procedure incidence or 90-day mortality. There was a disparity within the regions in the use of vascular resection (p = 0.021).Conclusion
The short-term outcomes after PD in Norway are acceptable and the 90-day mortality rate is low. The outcomes may reflect centralization of pancreatic surgery. 相似文献4.

Background
While post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) accurately predicts short-term mortality, its role in prognosticating long-term overall survival (OS) remains unclear.Methods
Patients who underwent hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) after portal vein embolization during 1999–2015 were evaluated retrospectively. PHLF was defined per International Study Group of Liver Surgery (ISGLS) criteria and as PeakBil >7 mg/dl. Survival was analyzed using log-rank statistic and Cox regression; patient mortality within 90 days was excluded.Results
Of 175 patients, 68 (39%) had PHLF according to ISGLS criteria, including 40 (23%) with ISGLS grade B/C, and 14 (8%) had PeakBil >7 mg/dl. Patients with PeakBil >7 mg/dl had significantly worse OS than patients without PHLF (median OS, 16 vs 58 months, p = 0.001). Patients with ISGLS defined PHLF (p = 0.251) and patients with ISGLS grade B/C PHLF (p = 0.220) did not have worse OS than patients without PHLF.Conclusion
Peak bilirubin >7 mg/dl impacts on long-term survival after hepatectomy for CRLM and is a better predictor of long-term survival than ISGLS-defined PHLF. 相似文献5.

Background
Gallstones and alcohol are currently the most frequent aetiologies of acute pancreatitis (AP). The aim of this study is to quantify these aetiologies worldwide, by geographic region and by diagnostic method.Methods
A systematic review of observational studies published from January 2006 to October 2017 was performed. The studies provided objective criteria for establishing the diagnosis and aetiology of AP for at least biliary and alcoholic causes. A random-effects meta-analysis was used to assess the frequency of biliary (ABP), alcoholic (AAP) and idiopathic AP (IAP) worldwide and to perform 6 subgroup analyses: 2 compared diagnostic methods for AP aetiology and the other 4 compared geographic regions.Results
Forty-six studies representing 2,341,007 patients of AP in 36 countries were included. The global estimate of proportion (95% CI) of aetiologies was 42 (39–44)% for ABP, 21 (17–25)% for AAP and 18 (15–22)% for IAP. In studies that used discharge code diagnoses and in those from the US, IAP was the most frequent aetiology. ABP was more frequent in Latin America than in other regions.Conclusion
Gallstones represent the main aetiology of AP globally, and this aetiology is twice as frequent as the second most common aetiology. 相似文献6.

Background
Cirrhosis increases the risk of perioperative mortality in gastrointestinal surgery. Though cirrhosis is sometimes considered a contraindication to pancreatoduodenectomy (PD), few data are available in this patient population. The aim of the present study is to identify predictors of outcome in cirrhotic patients undergoing PD.Methods
Patients undergoing PD with biopsy-proved cirrhosis were evaluated. Primary endpoints were morbidity and mortality. Child score, MELD score, and radiographic evidence of portal hypertension (pHTN) were assessed for accuracy in preoperative risk stratification. A systematic review of the literature with meta-analysis was also performed to query morbidity and mortality of patients with cirrhosis reported to undergo PD.Results
Between 2005 and 2015, 36 cirrhotic patients underwent PD; three year follow-up was complete. Median Child score was 6 (range 5–10); median MELD score was 9 (range 7–18). Perioperative (90-day) mortality was 6/36. Median survival was 37 months (range 0.2–116). MELD ≥ 10 was associated with increased mortality (4/13 vs. 2/13, p = 0.004). Irrespective of Child or MELD score, those with pHTN had poor outcomes including significantly greater intraoperative blood loss, increased incidence of major complication, and length of stay. Postoperative mortality was significantly higher with pHTN (3/16 vs. 1/13, p = 0.012).Conclusion
Pancreatoduodenectomy may be considered in carefully selected cirrhotic patients. MELD ≥ 10 predicts increased risk of postoperative mortality. Specific attention should be afforded to patients with preoperative radiographic evidence of portal hypertension as this group experiences poor outcomes irrespective of MELD or Child score. 相似文献7.

Background
A more accurate measure of long-term survival among patients who have undergone a successful resection for pancreatic adenocarcinoma may be computed by accounting for time already survived during the initial treatment window.Methods
Patients diagnosed with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, from 2004 through 2013, were identified from the American College of Surgeons National Cancer Database (NCDB). A risk-stratification matrix was constructed including age, histopathologic factors and the use of adjuvant therapy, given successful treatment and survival at 3-month following diagnosis.Results
A total of 25,897 patients (50% male, 53% >65 years of age) presented with stage I–III pancreatic cancer. The majority of patients had tumors >2 cm size (82%), grade I/II (65%), lymphatic invasion (LI) (66%), and negative margins (76%). A survival advantage for adjuvant therapy was observed among all patients, independent of their risk-profile. For example, a patient ≤65 years of age, with early stage cancer (size ≤2 cm, grade I/II, ?ve LI, ?ve margins) who received adjuvant therapy had a 62% probability of being alive beyond three years (95%CI = 59%–66%). In contrast, the survival probability decreased to 53% (95%CI = 59%–66%) without adjuvant therapy.Conclusions
These results provide surgeons and patients with more accurate information regarding long-term survival, as well as the benefit of opting for adjuvant therapy after successful pancreatic surgery. 相似文献8.

Department of Microbiology.Objective
To determine the common mutations responsible for rifampicin resistance in TB cases detected by Xpert MTB/RIF assay.Design
Results of Xpert MTB/RIF assay performed from 2013 to 2017 were analysed for missing probes in different types of specimens containing rifampicin resistant MTB.Results
Successful results were obtained in14872 of the total 15129 specimens processed by Xpert MTB/RIF assay, of which 9458 (63.6%) were sputum and 5414 (36.4%) were extrapulmonary specimens. MTB was detected in 1624 (17.17%) sputum and 1121 (20.70%) extrapulmonary specimens of which 409 (25.18%) and 277 (24.71%) were rifampicin resistant respectively.Probe E (83.82%) was the commonest probe responsible for rifampicin resistance followed by D (3.93%) and B (3.79%). Mutation in probe C (0.29%) was very rare. Combination of missing probes like AB (0.73%), DE (1.16%) and ADE (0.14%) was observed. 22 (3.2%) specimens showed presence of all five probes.Conclusion
Xpert MTB/RIF assay uses various combinations of probe to detect MTB along with rifampicin resistance and is a valuable diagnostic tool. It can become a useful epidemiological tool to identify dynamics of transmission of TB by addition of few more probes to identify mutations at specific codons. 相似文献9.

Background
Biliary fistula (BF) occurs in 3–8% of patients following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). It usually pursues a benign course, but rarely may represent a life-threatening event.Study design
Data from 1618 PDs were collected prospectively. BF was defined as the presence of bile stained fluid from drains by post-operative day 3 and confirmed by sinogram in the majority of cases. Three classifications were validated.Results
BF occurred in 58 (3.6%) patients. In 22 cases was associated with pancreatic fistula (POPF). POPF, PPH, operative time and a smaller common bile duct (CBD) were significantly associated with BF. Only CBD diameter (HR 0.55, CI 95% 0.44–0.7, p < 0.01) was an independent predictor of BF. Patients with smaller CBDs developing concomitant BF and POPF carried the highest mortality rate (34.8%, n = 8/22). All the existing classifications resulted in discrete categories of BFs when considering hospital stay and total cost as dependent variables.Conclusions
Biliary fistula is rare, but it can be life threatening when associated with POPF. As the sole independent risk factor is the CBD diameter, surgical technique is crucial. Regardless of the existing classification systems, further studies must assess the additive burden of BF when a concomitant POPF is present. 相似文献10.

Background
This retrospective UNOS database evaluation analyzes the prevalence of preoperative portal vein thromboses (PVT), and postoperative thromboses leading to graft failure in pediatric patients undergoing liver transplantation (LT).Methods
The evaluation was performed in three age groups: I (0–5), II (6–11), III (12–18) years old. Factors predictive of pre- and postoperative thromboses were analyzed.Results
Between 2000 and 2015, 8982 pediatric LT were performed in the US. Of those, 390 patients had preoperative PVT (4.3%), and 396 (4.4%) had postoperative thromboses. The prevalence of both types of thromboses was less in Group III than in the other two groups (3.20% vs 4.65%, p = 0.007 and 1.73% vs. 5.13%, p < 0.001, respectively). The prevalence of postoperative thromboses was significantly higher in Group I than in the other two groups (5.49% vs. 2.51%, p < 0.001). Preoperative PVT was independently associated with postoperative thromboses (OR = 1.7, p = 0.02). Children less than 5 years of age were more likely to develop postoperative thromboses leading to graft failure (OR = 2.9, p < 0.001).Conclusion
Younger children undergoing LT are prone to pre-and postoperative thrombotic complications. Preoperative PVT at the time of transplantation was independently associated with postoperative thromboses. Perioperative antithrombotic therapy should be considered in pediatric patients undergoing LT. 相似文献11.

Background
Best practise care optimises survival and quality of life in patients with pancreatic cancer (PC), but there is evidence of variability in management and suboptimal care for some patients. Monitoring practise is necessary to underpin improvement initiatives. We aimed to develop a core set of quality indicators that measure quality of care across the disease trajectory.Methods
A modified, three-round Delphi survey was performed among experts with wide experience in PC care across three states in Australia. A total of 107 potential quality indicators were identified from the literature and divided into five areas: diagnosis and staging, surgery, other treatment, patient management and outcomes. A further six indicators were added by the panel, increasing potential quality indicators to 113. Rated on a scale of 1–9, indicators with high median importance and feasibility (score 7–9) and low disagreement (<1) were considered in the candidate set.Results
From 113 potential quality indicators, 34 indicators met the inclusion criteria and 27 (7 diagnosis and staging, 5 surgical, 4 other treatment, 5 patient management, 6 outcome) were included in the final set.Conclusions
The developed indicator set can be applied as a tool for internal quality improvement, comparative quality reporting, public reporting and research in PC care. 相似文献12.

Objectives
We aimed to estimate the prevalence and correlates of QT interval prolongation in rural Uganda.Background
Major electrocardiographic abnormalities, including prolonged QT interval, have been shown to be independently predictive of adverse cardiovascular events among Western populations. Cardiovascular diseases are on the rise in sub-Saharan Africa with poorly characterized context-specific risk factors. An important question is whether ECG screening might have value in cardiovascular disease risk stratification in SSA.Methods
We conducted a cross-sectional survey in a sample of adults participating in an ongoing whole-population cohort in Mbarara, Uganda, in 2015. Of 1,814 subjects enrolled in the parent whole-population cohort, 856 (47%) participated in the study. Participants completed 12-lead electrocardiography and cardiovascular disease risk factors assessment. We summarized sex-specific, heart rate variation–adjusted QT (QTa) defining prolonged QTa as >460 ms in women and >450 ms in men. We fit linear and logistic regression models to estimate correlates of (continuous) QTa interval length and (dichotomous) prolonged QTa. Models included inverse probability of sampling weights to generate population-level estimates accounting for study nonparticipation.Results
We assessed data from 828 participants with electrocardiograms. The weighted population mean age was 38.4 years (95% confidence interval: 36.3–40.4). The weighted population was 50.4% female, 11.5% had elevated blood pressure, and 57.6% had a high-sensitivity C-reactive protein >1 mg/dl. The population mean QTa was 409.1 ms (95% confidence interval: 405.1–413.1), and 10.3% (95% confidence interval: 7.8–13.5) met criteria for prolonged QTa. Women had a higher mean QTa (421.6 ms vs. 396.3 ms; p < 0.001), and a higher proportion of women had a prolonged QTa (14.0% vs. 9.3%; p = 0.122) than did men. In multivariable-adjusted regression models, female sex and hypertension correlated with higher mean QTa and meeting criteria for prolonged QTa, respectively.Conclusions
QT interval prolongation is highly prevalent in rural Uganda and may be more common than in high-income settings. Female sex, age, and high blood pressure correlated with QT interval prolongation. Future work should assess whether genetic predisposition or environmental factors in sub-Saharan African populations contribute to prolonged QT and clarify consequences. 相似文献13.

Background
The benefit of performing major hepatic resection (MHR) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with cirrhosis remains controversial because of its high risk of posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF). This study was conducted to assess the risk of MHR for HCC in patients with cirrhosis.Methods
Patients with Child-Pugh A or B cirrhosis and HCC who underwent MHR from January 2000 to June 2014 were retrospectively identified. Risk factors for postoperative morbidity and mortality using univariate and multivariate analyses were evaluated.Results
Seventy patients with Child-Pugh A (93%) and 5 (7%) with Child-Pugh B cirrhosis underwent MHR for HCC. Thirteen (17%) had Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage A, 39 (50%) had BCLC B, and 23 (32%) had BCLC C disease. A perioperative blood transfusion was performed in 18 patients (24%). Ninety-day postoperative mortality was 9% (n=7). Major complications occurred in 16 patients (21%), including PHLF in 9 patients (12%). A multivariate analysis showed that perioperative blood transfusion was the main independent factor associated with mortality (OR= 6.5) and major morbidity (OR=10).Conclusion
In selected patients with HCC and cirrhosis, MHR is feasible and has acceptable mortality, but careful perioperative management and limiting blood loss are required. 相似文献14.

Background
Bile leak following liver resection can be associated with significant morbidity. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to evaluate the effect of intraoperative bile leak testing on postoperative bile leak rate and other complications after liver resection without biliary reconstruction for any cause.Methods
PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library and grey literature databases were searched for articles between 1960 and 2017 comparing bile leak rates with or without bile leak testing. Standard meta-analysis methods were used. The primary outcome was bile leak rate, and secondary outcomes were overall morbidity, reintervention rate and length of stay.Results
8 articles met inclusion criteria. Intraoperative bile leak testing after resection was associated with lower postoperative bile leak rate (4.1% vs 12.3%, OR 0.36, 95% CI 0.23–0.55, p < 0.001), overall morbidity (OR 0.67, 95% CI 0.47–0.96, p = 0.030), need for reintervention (OR 0.11, 95% CI 0.03–0.36, p < 0.001) and a shorter duration of hospital stay (2.21 days, 95% CI 0.69–3.73, p = 0.004).Conclusion
The routine use of intraoperative bile leak testing during liver resection results in a significant reduction in postoperative bile leak rate, overall morbidity, length of hospital stay and need for re-intervention. Bile leak testing should be performed after liver resection without biliary reconstruction. 相似文献15.

Background
Clinical outcomes for elderly patients undergoing liver resection for colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastases are poorly characterised. This study aimed to investigate the impact of advancing age on the incidence of liver resection and post-operative outcomes.Methods
Patients in the National Bowel Cancer Audit undergoing major CRC resection from 2010 to 2016 in England were included. Liver resection was identified from linked Hospital Episode Statistics data. A Cox-proportional hazards model was used to compare 3-year mortality.Results
Of 117,005 patients, 6081 underwent liver resection. For patients <65 years there was 1 liver resection per 12 cases, 65–74, 1 per 17, and ≥75, 1 per 40. 90-day mortality after liver resection increased with advancing age (<65 0.9% (26/2829), 65–74 2.8% (57/2070), ≥75 4.0% (47/1182); P < 0.001). Age was an independent risk factor for 3-year mortality. Patients 65–74 did not have adjusted mortality higher than those <65, yet age ≥75 was associated with increased overall mortality (Hazard ratio (HR) 1.47 (95% CI 1.30–1.68)) and cancer-specific mortality (HR 1.30 (95% CI 1.13–1.49)).Conclusion
Although advancing age was associated with higher rates of 90-day mortality following liver resection, 3-year mortality for patients 65–74 years was comparable to younger patients. These results will aid clinicians and patients in pre-operative decision-making. 相似文献16.

Background
The aim of this retrospective review was to evaluate the long-term survival benefits of thermal ablation versus wedge or segmental resection in solitary HCC lesions using tumor size and clinical factors.Methods
Survival analysis was performed on 43,601 patients from 2004 to 2015 in the National Cancer Database with solitary HCC lesions ≤5 cm with further stratification by tumor size, fibrosis score, and type of resection.Results
In patients with moderate fibrosis or less, survival benefit was seen with one-segment resection over ablation in tumors 1.1–3 cm (HR 0.54, p = 0.03) while tumors of 3.1–5 cm received survival benefit from wedge (HR 0.44, p = 0.04), one (HR 0.28, p = 0.001) and two-segment (HR 0.20, p = 0.001) resections over ablation. In patients with severe fibrosis to cirrhosis, wedge resection demonstrated survival benefit over ablation in patients with tumors 1.1–3 cm (HR 0.48, p = 0.01) with no survival benefit of any resection type in patients with tumors of 3.1–5 cm.Conclusion
These findings suggest that the decision to utilize thermal ablation versus resection to extend survival in solitary HCC lesions should include tumor size, fibrosis score, and type of resection. 相似文献17.

Background
The decision to utilize portal or systemic venous drainage in pancreas transplantation is surgeon- and center-dependent. Information regarding the superior method is based on single-center reports and animal models.Methods
UNOS data on adults receiving pancreas and kidney-pancreas transplants from 1987 to 2016 were analyzed (n = 29 078). The groups analyzed were: systemic venous pancreas graft drainage (SVD, n = 24 512) or portal venous pancreas graft drainage (PVD, n = 4566). A Cox proportional hazard model compared patient and allograft survival between groups.Results
No statistically significant differences were observed for patient and allograft survival at 1, 3, 5, 10, or 15 years post-transplant at each time interval and cumulatively (patient – HR:1.041; 95% CI:0.989–1.095; allograft – HR:0.951; 95% CI:0.881–1.027). PVD reduced the risk of death by 22.0% (P = 0.017) compared to SVD for patients undergoing pancreas after kidney transplant (PAK); no statistically significant difference was found for patients undergoing other types of transplants.Conclusion
There is no significant clinical difference in patient or allograft survival between PVD and SVD in pancreas transplantation for the majority of patients. For the subgroup of PAK, PVD was associated with decreased mortality. For individual surgeons, center and patient scenarios should dictate which technique is performed. 相似文献18.

Background
Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHC) often requires extensive surgery which is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to compare an Eastern and Western PHC cohort in terms of patient characteristics, treatment strategies and outcomes including a propensity score matched analysis.Methods
All consecutive patients who underwent combined biliary and liver resection for PHC between 2005 and 2016 at two Western and one Eastern center were included. The overall perioperative and long-term outcomes of the cohorts were compared and a propensity score matched analysis was performed to compare perioperative outcomes.Results
A total of 210 Western patients were compared to 164 Eastern patients. Western patients had inferior survival compared to the East (hazard-ratio 1.72 (1-23-2.40) P < 0.001) corrected for age, ASA score, tumor stage and margin status. After propensity score matching, liver failure rate, morbidity, and mortality were similar. There was more biliary leakage (38% versus 13%, p = 0.015) in the West.Conclusion
There were major differences in patient characteristics, treatment strategies, perioperative outcomes and survival between Eastern and Western PHC cohorts. Future studies should focus whether these findings are due to the differences in the treatment or the disease itself. 相似文献19.

Background
Myocardial infarction is among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in young adults around the world.Objectives
In the YOUTH (Young Myocardial Infarction Study of the Western Indians) registry, we aimed to evaluate risk factor profile and angiographic outcomes of reperfusion therapies of infarct-related artery in young western Indians (≤40 years) having ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.Methods
A total of 1,179 consecutive patients aged ≤40 years who presented with ischemic heart disease from June 2012 to December 2014 were enrolled in the YOUTH registry. A total of 787 patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction were further evaluated. Categorical data was assessed using chi-square test, whereas continuous data was assessed using Student's t test. Regression analysis was performed to investigate the strength of association.Results
In the YOUTH registry, the study population was predominantly male (93%) with tobacco consumption as major prevalent risk factor (49.7%). Of 787 patients, 451 (57.31%) were thrombolyzed, 326 (41.42%) did not receive any reperfusion therapy, and 10 patients (1.27%) underwent primary angioplasty. Younger age, window period <6 h, and lower lipoprotein (a) level were observed in patients with a recanalized infarct-related artery. Regression analysis showed window period of thrombolysis as strongest predictor (odds ratio: 1.790, 95% confidence interval: 1.144–2.802; p < 0.011) of successful reperfusion. Patients (n = 235) being thrombolyzed in a window period of <6 h, had higher rate of infarct-related artery recanalization (77%) as compared to those with ≥6 h window period (23%). In-hospital mortality was 0.38% (n = 3), whereas bleeding complication was noted only in 1 patient.Conclusions
We herewith conclude that acute short-term outcome is favorable in young ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients, particularly in those who had received timely thrombolytic therapy. Though tobacco consumption was a major contributor of risk in young adults, prevalence of other risk factors was low in young Western Indians. 相似文献20.
