n, the adjusted ratio of slopes for major perioperative bleeding post- versus pre-FDA warning was 0.98 (95% confidence interval , 0.93-1.04). In the DID estimate using “nonswitcher” hospitals as a control group, the ratio of ratios was 0.93 (95% CI, 0.46-1.86), indicating no significant difference. Conclusions We identified a subset of hospitals…[Read more]

At 1-year follow-up, maximum total aorta diameter was decreased in the acute/subacute and early chronic groups and increased in the late chronic group (-4.3±9.3 vs. -5.2±6.9 vs. 2.5±4.6 mm, p less then .001). Survival free from major adverse aortic event (death, aortic rupture, or reintervention) at 5 years post-TEVAR was lowest in the late ch…[Read more]

Among patients with an EOI CR by CT in GALLIUM and GOYA, 2.8% and 4.1%, respectively, had a BMB-altered response. These results suggest that postinduction BMB histology has minimal impact on radiographically (CT)-defined responses in both FL and DLBCL patients. In GALLIUM and GOYA, respectively, 4.7% of FL patients and 7.1% of DLBCL patients had a…[Read more]

There was a significant difference between the two groups for mean percent vital bone formation (short-term = 18.17%, long-term = 40.32%, P =  less then  0.0001) and percentage of residual graft (short-term = 41.54%, long-term = 23.59%, P =  less then  0.0001). There was no difference in morphological changes between the two groups. CONCLUSION…[Read more]
