© 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.

PLoS ONE, 14(5), Article e0216528. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0216528

Background Complications of diverticular disease are increasingly common, possibly linked to increasing obesity. Visceral fat could contribute to the development of symptomatic diverticular disease through its pro-inflammatory effects. Objective...

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...
