Risk factors for anastomotic leakage after anterior resection of the rectum
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for anastomotic leakage in anterior resection and to assess the role of a temporary stoma and the need for urgent re‐operations in relation to anastOMotic leakage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm: A population-based study with historical and current data
Anders Wanhainen,David Bergqvist,Kurt Boman,Torbjörn K. Nilsson,Jörgen Rutegård,Martin Björck +5 more
TL;DR: The variables of a history of atherosclerosis, smoking, and family history of AAA appear to interact synergistically to increase the prevalence of abdominal aortic aneurysm ( P < .001).
Journal ArticleDOI
Is early detection of anastomotic leakage possible by intraperitoneal microdialysis and intraperitoneal cytokines after anterior resection of the rectum for cancer
Peter Matthiessen,Ida E U Hall Strand,Kjell Jansson,Cathrine Törnquist,Magnus Andersson,Jörgen Rutegård,Lars Norgren +6 more
TL;DR: The intraperitoneal lactate/pyruvate ratio and cytokines, IL-6,IL-10, and TNF-α, were increased in patients who developed symptomatic anastomotic leakage before clinical symptoms were evident.
Journal ArticleDOI
Population-based study of risk factors for postoperative death after anterior resection of the rectum
TL;DR: The aim of this population‐based study was to analyse risk factors for death within 30 days after anterior resection of the rectum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low Quality of Life Prior to Screening for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm: A Possible Risk Factor for Negative Mental Effects
TL;DR: The results showed that screening for AAA results in impairment of QOL among those who have the disease and who suffered a low QOL prior to screening, which is a possible risk factor for negative mental effects of diagnosing an AAA by screening.
