Abdominal decompression after cardiac surgery: outcome of 42 patients with abdominal compartment syndrome (Publications)
Patient characteristics, details on the cardiac surgery, mortality rate and type of treatment of the open abdomen were analyzed. RESULTS: Incidence of ACS in cardiac surgery patients was 1.0% (n = 42/4128)

A pilot study characterizing real time exposures to particulate matter and carbon monoxide from cookstove related woodsmoke in rural Peru (Publications)
kitchen carbon monoxide (CO) samples were taken. Control households used a number of stoves including open fire and chimney stoves while intervention households used study-promoted chimney stoves. Measurements
