Mortality is a quantification of death, often referring to deaths attributing to a specific cause such as a disease or illness. Epidemiological studies often report mortality rates which are calculated by dividing the number of deaths due to a disease by the total population.
Patient Blood Management (PBM) is an emerging clinical concept designed to reduce unnecessary, excessive and avoidable blood transfusions. Interest in PBM has grown rapidly throughout t...
Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) continue to be a considerable problem for hospitals and healthcare institutions that can adversely affect patient outcomes and impact the financial bot...
A crucial part of providing animals for research is successful breeding. Still, in many mouse facilities breeding efficiency is complicated by problems with reproduction, such as pre-weaning...
Melanoma, a cancer of pigment-producing cells, accounts for nearly 200,000 new cases of cancer reported each year worldwide. It is the deadliest skin cancer. Alarmingly, in the U.S., the inci...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a significant contributor to cancer-related mortality in the United States and worldwide. Current treatments are largely ineffective: single agent and combin...

Respiratory viral infections remain a leading cause of medical visits and can contribute significantly to morbidity and mortality. Influenza, together with pneumonia, is the leading infectio...
The field of surgical research has been growing rapidly with the development of new surgical and disease models. An extremely important and often overlooked aspect of creating these models is...
It is the often-ignored simple tips in rodent surgery that make the difference and help minimize postoperative complications and mortality. The presenter will use his years of experience to...
Although the incidence of breast cancer is steadily increasing, mortality rates are decreasing. This means that the majority of women with breast cancer now survive, making it even more impor...
Uncovering the genetic lesions underpinning cancer through genomic profiling in a clinical setting could provide insights into possible treatment options for oncologists and their patients. N...
Survival rates for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain unacceptably low compared to other common solid tumors. This mortality reflects a weakness in conventional staging, as...
Clinical networks link groups of professionals and organisations from primary, secondary and tertiary care, shifting emphasis from institutional to patient needs and outcomes. One of the main...
The value of measuring lactate levels is expanding. Though generally considered a nonspecific biomarker, knowing lactate levels early in a patients presentation can provide valuable informat...
Interest in vitamin D status remains high amongst the public and medical profession alike stimulating a surge in requests for clinical laboratories to measure patient serum 25-hydroxyvitamin...
The proper surgical techniques represent a key opportunity to improve the welfare of laboratory rodents, while meeting legal and ethical obligations. Use of inappropriate or poor surgical tec...
Pancreatic cancer is the 4th most common cause of cancer deaths in the United States. Due to the aggressive nature of this cancer and the lack of biomarkers for early detection, the incidence...
Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most significant causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide. In about 6-7% of NSCLC, rearrangements involving the Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase...
