Robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy using the Hugo robotic-assisted surgery platform: Initial experience and insights.

Introduction: Robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) is a vital modality in the armamentarium of minimally invasive surgeons. The HugoTM RAS system (Medtronic) is one of the newest platforms on the market and has little surgical outcomes data. We describe our early experience performing robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPNx) with the Hugo RAS platform.

Fluid bolus resuscitation with hypertonic saline albumin solution in critically ill children: a prospective observational pilot study.

To evaluate the hemodynamic effects and the safety profile of fluid bolus resuscitation with hypertonic saline albumin (HSA) in critically ill children, we performed a prospective observational pilot study between October 2018 and May 2021 in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) in a tertiary hospital in Madrid, Spain. Sixty-four HSA boluses were analyzed in 23 patients. A mean volume of 5.

Neuroanatomical, transcriptomic, and molecular correlates of math ability and their prognostic value for predicting learning outcomes.

Foundational mathematical abilities, acquired in early childhood, are essential for success in our technology-driven society. Yet, the neurobiological mechanisms underlying individual differences in children's mathematical abilities and learning outcomes remain largely unexplored. Leveraging one of the largest multicohort datasets from children at a pivotal stage of knowledge acquisition, we first establish a replicable mathematical ability-related imaging phenotype (MAIP).

The Role of Neurotoxins and Fillers in Affirmative Care in Gender Nonconforming Filipino Patients.

Objective: Gender nonconformity refers to individuals whose gender identity, roles, or expressions do not adhere to societal standards and norms. Affirmative care is an approach to healthcare delivery in which organizations, programs, and providers recognize, validate, and support the identity stated or expressed by the individuals served. This study examined the effects of nonsurgical interventions performed by dermatologists, specifically botulinum toxins (BoNTA) and dermal filler injections, on the physical and mental health of Filipino gender nonconforming individuals.
