The comparison of the efficacy of intramuscular tetracosactide and subacromial triamcinolone injection in rotator cuff tendinitis: a randomized trial.

Objectives: Rotator cuff tendinitis (RCT) is a tendon inflammation often following subacromial impingement syndrome. One of the non-surgical management modalities for RCT is subacromial injection of corticosteroids. Some studies have claimed a correlation between ACTH (Adrenocorticotropic Hormone) deficiency and rotator cuff lesions; hence, intramuscular ACTH analogue injection has been recommended as an option.

Clinical phenotype, genotypes, and treatment observations in Yao syndrome: a retrospective case series.

Objective: The aim of this study was to characterize the phenotype and genotype of patients with Yao syndrome (YAOS), with focus on comparing to prior cohorts, identifying novel features, and describing treatment observations.

Methods: A retrospective medical records review of patients with YAOS seen at Mayo Clinic was conducted to characterize clinical features, genotypes, and therapeutic trials and responses.

Results: Twenty-two patients diagnosed with YAOS were included.

Remdesivir in solid organ transplant recipients with COVID-19: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: The use of remdesivir in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs) with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been studied. The present systematic review and analysis aimed to assess its effectiveness in this population.

Methods: A comprehensive search of PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase, medRxiv, and Google Scholar was conducted to identify relevant articles published up to April 2024.

The analgesic effects of botulinum neurotoxin by modulating pain-related receptors; A literature review.

Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs), produced by Clostridium botulinum, have been used for the treatment of various central and peripheral neurological conditions. Recent studies have suggested that BoNTs may also have a beneficial effect on pain conditions. It has been hypothesized that one of the mechanisms underlying BoNTs' analgesic effects is the inhibition of pain-related receptors' transmission to the neuronal cell membrane.

Tixagevimab/cilgavimab prophylaxis against COVID-19 in solid organ transplant recipients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Tixagevimab/cilgavimab (Tix/Cil) shows promise as a prophylactic treatment against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs). This study was performed to assess the effectiveness of Tix/Cil for preexposure prophylaxis against COVID-19 in this population.

Methods: We systematically searched the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed, and Embase databases to identify articles relevant to our study up to December 15, 2023.
