Impact of Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio on Stroke Severity and Clinical Outcome in Anterior Circulation Large Vessel Occlusion Stroke.

The prognostic value of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in ischemic stroke remains debated due to cohort variability and treatment heterogeneity across studies. This study evaluates the relationship between admission NLR, stroke severity and 90-day outcomes in patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO) undergoing early, successful revascularization. A retrospective multicenter study was conducted with 1082 patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke.

External validation of Ito's nomogram and T.O.HO. scoring system in flexible ureterorenoscopy.

Purpose: This study aims to assess stone-free rates after flexible ureterorenoscopy (fURS) using the T.O.HO.

Efficiency of the estimation of physiologic ability and surgical stress (E-PASS) score in predicting postoperative complications after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Background: Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy (RARP) is increasingly becoming the standard surgical treatment for prostate cancer. While some risk factors for postoperative complications of RARP have been identified, no scoring model that incorporates both preoperative physical status of the patient and intraoperative risk factors has been developed. The Estimation of Physiologic Ability and Surgical Stress (E-PASS) score was initially described to predict postoperative complications after gastrointestinal surgical procedures.

Is the modified double-puncture arthrocentesis technique effective in terms of clinical outcomes?

We aimed to compare the clinical results of the modified double-puncture arthrocentesis technique with the results of the conventional double-puncture and single-puncture techniques. Patients who underwent unilateral arthrocentesis and had stage 2-4 internal irregularities according to Wilkes classification were included in the study. The outcome variables were pain, maximum mouth opening, quality of life, and duration of the procedure.
