Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the impact of decompressive craniectomy (DC) on patients with symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) following acute ischemic stroke, comparing outcomes between those who had surgery and those treated medically.
  • It analyzed data from 85 patients across 8 stroke centers, revealing that DC patients were younger, had longer ICU stays, and showed better functional outcomes at 90 days compared to non-DC patients, especially if they were younger and did not have a history of cancer.
  • The results indicate that the DC group had lower in-hospital mortality rates and came out with improved scores on the modified Rankin Scale, suggesting a potential benefit of surgery for select patients with severe sICH.

Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) represents the most common conjunctival tumor in horses and frequently results in vision loss and surgical removal of the affected globe. Multiple etiologic factors have been identified as contributing to OSSN progression, including solar radiation exposure, genetic mutations, and a lack of periocular pigmentation. Response to conventional treatments has been highly variable, though our recent work indicates that these tumors are highly responsive to local immunotherapy.

Wildlife must adapt to human presence to survive in the Anthropocene, so it is critical to understand species responses to humans in different contexts. We used camera trapping as a lens to view mammal responses to changes in human activity during the COVID-19 pandemic. Across 163 species sampled in 102 projects around the world, changes in the amount and timing of animal activity varied widely.
