5 ± 1 mmol/l,

 < 0.05 for both). Renal function was similar across eGDR tertiles and no difference in retinopathy was detected.

TC and TG are altered in individuals with T1DM and low eGDR, suggesting that this subgroup requires optimal lipid management to ameliorate their vascular risk.

We aimed at identifying the key predictors of successful SP by using readily available CT-based tools/measurements. Methods Patients presenting to the emergency department from February 2017 to February 2018 with an acute unilateral ureteral stone confirmed on non-contrast CT and managed conservatively were followed for SP. Patients with renal impairment, sepsis or requiring emergent intervention were excluded. Patients were followed at 1 month to confirm SP (stone collection/repeat imaging) or failure of passage. The CT variables analyzed included Stone factors [location, size, volume, HU density (HUD)], impaction factors [ureteral HUD above and below the stone, maximal ureteral wall thickness (UWT) at the stone site, contralateral UWT, and ureteral diameter above and below the stone]. Binary logistic regression analysis was performed to identify predictors of SP. Results Forty-nine patients met study inclusion criteria, of whom 32 (65.3%) passed the stone without further intervention. Patients with successful passage were more likely to have smaller, lower volume and less dense stones located in the distal ureter (p  less then  0.01). Lower ureteral HUD below the stone, lower maximal UWT, and lower ureteral diameter above the stone were associated with successful passage (p  less then  0.01). On multivariable logistic regression analysis, only maximal UWT at the stone site was a significant independent predictor of SP outcome (p = 0.01). Youden's criterion identified 2.3 mm as the optimal UWT cut-off point, which will accurately predict SP with 82.4% sensitivity and 87.5% specificity. Conclusions Maximal UWT at the stone site was the most significant predictor of successful passage in acute unilateral ureteral stones, with an optimal cut-off point of 2.3 mm. Further prospective studies are needed to accurately predict spontaneous SP.

Perinatal mental health services are a current NHS priority and services are being increased for women. There is limited research on mothers' perspectives of these services and most research focuses on mother and baby units (MBUs). This study explored women's views of their experiences of generic wards, MBUs and crisis resolution teams.

A qualitative thematic analysis was conducted on written feedback on a service-user-designed questionnaire. One hundred and thirty-nine women recruited across 42 mental health trusts made comments.

Two key themes were identified support networks and staff authority. Support networks included subthemes relating to families, peers and staff. learn more The theme of staff authority incorporated subthemes about communication, confidence in staff and service-user autonomy. All themes contributed to whether mothers felt safe in these services. Mothers reported the benefits of positive, non-coercive relationships with family and staff for their recovery. The findings highlight that the challenges women face in perinatal settings reflect the literature on general psychiatric services, particularly around coercion.

Specific implications for mothers accessing perinatal mental health services 1) integrated mental health care and support with babies; 2) support with separation from babies for mothers in acute wards; 3) improvement of women's relationships with social services across all services.

He underwent surgery for primary tumor resection through a median sternotomy and left thoracotomy at the 7th intercostal space to remove pleural metastases. On the first postoperative day, massive bleeding occurred, a resternotomy was carried out but failed to save the patient. A fracture of the right first rib, which injured the right vertebral artery, had caused massive bleeding and was diagnosed at autopsy. Surgeons should keep in mind this potentially fatal complication of a median sternotomy.Pulled-in-two syndrome (PITS) is a serious intraoperative complication of strabismus surgery in which an extraocular muscle manipulated during the procedure is ruptured and potentially lost. Usually, there is a systemic or local condition that determines muscle weakness when put under tension. If the proximal portion of the broken muscle can be found, it can be reattached to the ocular globe or remaining muscle. If this is not possible, there are multiple varying approaches. We present three cases of PITS of the inferior rectus muscle, treated with good results with anterior and nasal transposition of the inferior oblique muscle. We propose this surgery as another potential technique if the muscle can not be retrieved.

To study the effects of disability, cognitive impairment, and neuropsychiatric disturbance among older Mexican Americans on depressive symptoms in their children caregivers.

This study utilizes data from Wave 7 (2010-2011) of the Hispanic Established Populations for the Epidemiologic Study of the Elderly (HEPESE). The final sample included 200 adult children caregivers that provided direct personal care with activities of daily living (ADL) (e.g. bathing, toileting, dressing, etc.) to their older parents (average age = 87). We analyzed the influence of ADL disability, cognition (MMSE), and neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPI) of the care recipient on depressive symptoms of the adult child caregiver. A cross-sectional multivariable linear regression analysis was conducted to examine the effect of neuropsychiatric disturbance on caregiver depressive symptoms.

Presence of care recipient NPI symptoms was associated with higher depressive symptoms for caregivers. Additional characteristics associated with caregiver depressive symptoms were not being married, and higher perceived social stress.
