Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) explant heart transplantation represents a metabolically vulnerable population with an increased risk for renal failure and mortality. Oxygen extraction ratio (O2ER), which integrates oxygen delivery and tissue oxygen demand, may provide a physiologic marker of cumulative metabolic...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Postoperative hyperglycemia is a known risk factor of complications after surgery. In patients undergoing adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery, we evaluated the effect of postoperative hyperglycemia in diabetics and nondiabetics on: (1) medical complications, (2) mechanical complications, and...

Diabetes and obesity increase cardiac lipid levels leading to cardiomyopathy and heart failure. We hypothesized that intermittent fasting would reduce cardiac lipid levels. Surprisingly, intermittent fasting increased myocardial triglyceride content, but rescued mortality and attenuated cardiomyopathy in mice overexpre...

These findings suggest LVAD explant identifies a higher-risk transplant phenotype shaped by surgical burden, device-associated physiologic effects, and allocation-era transplant timing, rather than by intrinsic device-related risk alone.

OBJECTIVE
In adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery, lumbosacral fractional curve (LSF) is stiffer and harder to correct than thoracolumbar major curve (MC). In patients undergoing ASD surgery, we aimed to:1) assess correction rate of LSF vs. MC, 2) determine association between their correction and postoperative alignme...

Focusing on adding lordosis at the L4/5 and L5/S1 level will result in the greatest improvement in L1PA, suggesting that focusing on adding lordosis at the L4/5 and L5/S1 level will result in the greatest improvement in L1PA.
