1) High levels of soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) were associated with an increased risk of acute kidney injury in patients undergoing coronary angiography, cardiac surgery, and in critically ill patients.
2) Experiments in mice overexpressing suPAR and in human kidney cells exposed to suPAR showed that suPAR impairs kidney function and increases oxidative stress.
3) Blocking the urokinase plasminogen activator receptor with a monoclonal antibody prevented kidney injury in mice overexpressing suPAR and normalized cell function, suggesting suPAR contributes to acute kidney injury and its receptor is a potential therapeutic target.

One year mortality rate after hip fracture in the western region of saudi ara...Prof. Hesham N. Mustafa
Background:
The mortality rate of elderly patients who sustain a hip fracture is high compared to the general population. Identifying risk factors can help predict patients at risk of hip fracture to reduce the mortality rate. No studies have shown the mortality rate of patients with hip fractures in the western region of Saudi Arabia. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the risk factors associated with the mortality of patients with hip fractures admitted to the King Abdulaziz Hospital and compare the results with other studies.
Methods:
The mortality rate (within 1 yr or less) in 177 patients over the age of 60 yr who were admitted to the university hospital between July, 2007, and September, 2012, with hip fractures was retrospectively studied. The patients were assessed with regard to gender, age, type of hip fracture, and type of surgical intervention.
Results:
The overall mortality rate 1 yr after hip fracture was 12.43%, and the mean age was 77.77 yr old. The risk factors most associated with mortality were as follows: advanced age (71 to 80 and 81 to 90 yr old), male, peritrochanteric (extracapsular) fracture, and operative fixation with dynamic hip screw.
Conclusions:
The mortality rate of patients with hip fractures within 1 yr has a high-risk potential, especially for male patients over 71 yr of age with peritrochanteric (extracapsular) fractures. Surgical treatment with dynamic hip screw also was shown to be a risk factor between the different treatment options.
Level of Evidence:
Level IV.

Blood transfusion is a complex activity in healthcare, constitutes an important part of various treatment protocols. Thus the indications for ordering blood must be fully justified to avoid over or misusage of this resource. In a 5 year retrospective study, details of patient’s diagnosis and indications for transfusion are correlated with whole blood and components transfused from the blood bank data base in SAQR Hospital, in Ras Al Khaimah UAE. It was found that 7,045 blood units which were transfused, maximum blood was supplied to surgical wards; most common indications for transfusion were injuries during road traffic accidents, orthopedic surgeries and cardiovascular surgeries. Nearly half (52%) of all blood was given to female recipients. UAE nationals received the maximum units of blood; most prevalent blood group among blood transfusion recipients was O +ve. Major usage of blood products transfused were packed RBC’s. The study concludes that regular assessment of blood component usage followed by academic sessions for clinicians is recommended for effective and efficient use of available blood to patients in a life-threatening situation.

The kSORT assay to detect renal transplant patients at risk for acute rejecti...Kevin Jaglinski
Development of noninvasive molecular assays to improve disease diagnosis and patient monitoring is a critical need. In renal transplantation, acute rejection (AR) increases the risk for chronic graft injury and failure. Noninvasive diagnostic assays to improve current late and nonspecific diagnosis of rejection are needed. We sought to develop a test using a simple blood gene expression assay to detect patients at high risk for AR.
Background: Resectability Criteria for Colorectal Liver Metastases (CRLM) have expanded, and advances in liver surgery have increased the number of patients eligible for resection. Identifying risk factors for early recurrence to help stratify CRLM patients will contribute to targeted management of these patients, including surveillance follow-up.Objectives: To identify risk factors for early recurrence post-resection for CRLM in a contemporary cohort of patients. Early recurrence was defi ned based on unit protocol as evidence of recurrent disease on follow-up imaging within one year of surgery.Methods: From January 2012 to December 2016, 133 patients with CRLM underwent liver resection in our Unit; 115 patients followed up for at least a year were eligible. We analysed pre-operative variables (sex, age, BMI, comorbidities, CEA and Liver function tests (LFTs), lesion number, size of largest liver lesion, neoadjuvant chemotherapy), operative variables (anatomical vs non-anatomical, major vs minor, redo liver surgery, concomitant use of ablation techniques, blood loss, blood transfusions, Pringle’s manoeuvre), and post-operative variables (complications, length of hospital stay, histological parameters) were analysed.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
You could be a professional graphic designer and still make mistakes. There is always the possibility of human error. On the other hand if you’re not a designer, the chances of making some common graphic design mistakes are even higher. Because you don’t know what you don’t know. That’s where this blog comes in. To make your job easier and help you create better designs, we have put together a list of common graphic design mistakes that you need to avoid.
