Is pre-operative serum albumin associated with post-operative complication rate and overall survival in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer undergoing cytoreductive surgery?
Pre-operative hypoalbuminemia can be used as both an independent predictive factor for severe post-operative complications and as prognostic parameter regarding overall survival in EOC patients. Therefore, albumin levels may be incorporated into future clinical trials as stratification factor.
RM is as effective as PF in the treatment of plantar fasciitis. Patients who underwent both procedures experienced no benefit and a higher rate of complications.
