Advancing One Health education: integrative pedagogical approaches and their impacts on interdisciplinary learning.

One Health is an integrative approach that emphasizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health, advocating for collaborative, multidisciplinary efforts to address health challenges, particularly amid globalization and emerging threats. This paper examines the integration of One Health principles into global health education, highlighting the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration and innovative pedagogical approaches. It evaluates various teaching methods, including problem-based learning (PBL), team-based learning (TBL), simulation-based education (SBE), case-based learning (CBL), interdisciplinary workshops and seminars (IWS), and service-learning (SL), analyzing their strengths and weaknesses in fostering interdisciplinary understanding and practical application of One Health concepts.

Non-traumatic pediatric intracranial hypertension: key points for different etiologies, diagnosis, and treatment.

Intracranial hypertension can be an acute life-threatening event or slowly deteriorating condition, leading to a gradual loss of neurological function. The diagnosis should be taken in a timely fashioned process, which mandates expedite measures to save brain function and sometimes life. An optimal management strategy is selected according to the causative etiology with a core treatment paradigm that can be utilized in various etiologies.

Adolescent Disc Disease: Risk Factors and Treatment Success-Related Factors.

Objective: A paucity of literature is available discussing the associated risk factors, treatment options (including the use of minimally invasive surgery), and outcomes related to lumbar disc herniation (LDH) in children. We have discussed the risk factors for disc disease among pediatric patients and evaluated the efficacy of the minimally invasive approach.

Methods: A retrospective review of pediatric patients with lumbar disc disease who had undergone microdiscectomy at our institution from 2005 to 2016 was conducted.

Rhabdomyolysis after spinal fusion surgery: management schema and prevention of a catastrophic complication.

Purpose: Rhabdomyolysis is a clinical syndrome with the potential to cause cardiac arrhythmias, renal failure, and even death. Currently, there are no studies regarding risk factors for developing post-operative rhabdomyolysis (POR) after spinal fusion surgeries. Our objective was to study risk factors associated with, and to develop a decision-making framework for post-operative rhabdomyolysis after spinal fusion surgery.

Foraminal Ligaments Tether Upper Cervical Nerve Roots: A Potential Cause of Postoperative C5 Palsy.

 Nerve root tethering upon dorsal spinal cord (SC) migration has been proposed as a potential mechanism for postoperative C5 palsy (C5P). To our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate this relationship by anatomically comparing C5-C6 nerve root translation before and after root untethering by cutting the cervical foraminal ligaments (FL).  The aim of this study is to determine if C5 root untethering through FL cutting results in increased root translation.
