DOI: 10.1007/s00256-020-03475-z
Abstract: Objective CT segmentation of psoas muscles at L3 level is used to measure sarcopenia status, but it is not feasible when L3 is not included in the examination. We tested the correlation of psoas muscle… read more here.

Perioperative psoas to lumbar vertebral index does not successfully predict amputation‐free survival after lower extremity revascularization
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Journal of Vascular Surgery"
DOI: 10.1016/j.jvs.2017.06.095
Abstract: Background: Accurate and convenient methods for assessing a patient's risk of postoperative morbidity and mortality comprise important tools in clinical decision‐making. Whereas some aspects of the patient's fitness for surgery can be easily quantified, measurement… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/bcr-2022-250635
Abstract: A standard surgical treatment of distal ureteric defects is represented by the ureteroneocystostomy-ureteric reimplantation. However, the procedure involves an anatomical alteration of the ureterovesical (neo)junction that often hinders the retrograde catheterisation of the reimplanted ureter.… read more here.
