Perioperative Glycemic Control: Main Factor in Reducing Postoperative Complications in Diabetic Patients by Ariel Leonardo Alarcón Vela, Ximena Patricia Santacruz Solís, Ronelsys Martínez

“…It was possible to appreciate that perioperative hyperglycemia is associated with adverse results in general surgery patients with diabetes mellitus, however, in patients who have achieved glycemic control with insulin therapy before the intervention, they did not present a greater risk than that which appears in subjects with good metabolic control. Glucose regulation in the perioperative stage is an important parameter in diabetic patients, which considerably reduces complications in surgical procedures, long stays in Intensive Care Units, and even death.…”

Dealing with complexity – Integrating LCA, ERA and ESA to assess human impacts and benefits on the biosphere by Cesare Sposito, Giuseppe De Giovanni

“… How we live, regardless of where this happens, impacts the biosphere and leads to chain reactions in different spheres that affect both nature and humans on a global scale: climate change, health risks, and loss of biodiversity all concur in a polycrisis condition that amplifies the state of uncertainty surrounding our future and the vulnerability of the entire ecosystem, especially since the design actions put in place do not address the cogent environmental issue systemically and holistically. …”
