Effect of different anesthetic modalities on postoperative delirium in elderly hip fractures: A meta-analysis.

Background: Previous findings on the effect of general versus spinal anesthesia on postoperative delirium in elderly people with hip fractures are somewhat controversial. This article included the latest randomized controlled study for meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of general anesthesia (GA) and spinal anesthesia (SA) on delirium after hip fracture surgery in the elderly, so as to guide the clinical.

Methods: Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web Of Science, and Embase were searched from inception up to January 16, 2024.

Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of day surgery for cervical disc herniation treated with low temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the clinical efficacy of patients with cervical disc herniation (CDH) treated by low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation (LTP-RFA) as day surgery with traditional inpatients.

Methods: According to the selection criteria, single-segment mild to moderate CDH patients who received LTP-RFA from January 2020 to December 2021 were divided into day surgery procedure (DSP) group and a traditional inpatient procedure (TIP) group. The visual analogue score (VAS) and modified Japanese Orthopedic Association score (mJOA) of neurological function of patients in the two groups were recorded at the time of preoperative, and one day, three months, six months after surgery and the last follow-up respectively.

Research progress on long non-coding RNAs for spinal cord injury.

Spinal cord injury is a complex central nervous system disease with an unsatisfactory prognosis, often accompanied by multiple pathological processes. However, the underlying mechanisms of action of this disease are unclear, and there are no suitable targeted therapeutic options. Long non-coding RNA mediates a variety of neurological diseases and regulates various biological processes, including apoptosis and autophagy, inflammatory response, microenvironment, and oxidative stress.
