Background: Surgeons' reliance on intraoperative fluoroscopy during vertebroplasty procedures has raised concerns regarding the level of patient and surgeon radiation. Navigation systems have shown a potential to reduce the overall patient and medical staff exposure during dose exposure studies. The main objective of this study was to determine whether the Surgivisio platform (eCential Robotics, France), a unified imaging and navigation platform, lowers the patient dose during routine clinical usage as compared with published fluoroscopy and other navigation options that are published in the literature.

- Congenital titinopathies are inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern and primarily result from genetic variations in metatranscript (MTT)-only exons, leading to diverse clinical outcomes.
- The study analyzed 20 patients with these variants, revealing severe congenital myopathy at birth along with a wide range of associated issues like muscular weakness and respiratory problems.
- Findings underscore the importance of genotype-phenotype correlations, enhancing understanding of the genetic basis and molecular mechanisms behind these conditions.
Article Synopsis
- Eukaryotic microorganisms, known as protists, are vital for the Earth’s ecosystem, contributing to primary production, nutrient cycling, and human health interactions.
- With climate change and human impact disrupting natural ecosystems, it's crucial to study the functional and ecological diversity of protists.
- The review emphasizes the need for understanding protist resilience to climate change and discusses how the field of protistology may develop in response to ongoing ecological shifts.
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are frequent, especially in women. The increase in antibiotic resistance and changing epidemiological profiles require the recommendations to be regularly updated. This article reviews current guidelines for the management of uncomplicated and recurrent UTIs, taking into account recommendations from the European Association of Urology (EAU), the Association Française d'Urologie (AFU) and the American Association of Urology (AUA).

- - The study investigates how intestinal colonization with multidrug-resistant Enterobacterales (MDRE-IC) affects the risk of bloodstream infections (nE-BSI) in hospitalized patients, finding that MDRE-IC significantly increases this risk.
- - Conducted at a large hospital in 2019, the research involved over 7000 patients, with 11.9% found to have MDRE-IC; those colonized had a higher incidence of nE-BSI compared to non-colonized patients.
- - The results highlight the importance of improving infection control and antibiotic use strategies in hospitals to reduce the risk of bloodstream infections related to MDRE colonization.
