Journal Article
El-Sharkawy, A. M., Devonald, M. A. J., Humes, D. J., Sahota, O., & Lobo, D. N. (2020). Hyperosmolar dehydration: a predictor of kidney injury and outcome in hospitalised older adults. Clinical Nutrition, 39(8), P2593-2599. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.clnu.2019.11.030

© 2019 The Author(s) Background & aims: Hospitalised older adults are vulnerable to dehydration. However, the prevalence of hyperosmolar dehydration (HD) and its impact on outcome is unknown. Serum osmolality is not measured routinely but osmolarity,... Read More about Hyperosmolar dehydration: a predictor of kidney injury and outcome in hospitalised older adults.

A systematic review of population-based studies examining outcomes in primary retroperitoneal sarcoma surgery (2019)
Journal Article
Peacock, O., Patel, S., Simpson, J. A., Walter, C. J., & Humes, D. J. (2019). A systematic review of population-based studies examining outcomes in primary retroperitoneal sarcoma surgery. Surgical Oncology, 29, 53-63. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.suronc.2019.03.002

Retroperitoneal sarcomas (RPS) are rare mesenchymal tumours. Their rarity challenges our ability to understand expected outcomes. The aim of this systematic review was to examine 30-day morbidity and mortality, overall survival rates and prognostic p...
