Background: Patients undergoing bariatric surgery may be at increased risk for postsurgical opioid dependence, highlighting a need for opioid-sparing anesthesia.
Objectives: Liposomal bupivacaine (LB), a prolonged release formulation of bupivacaine, may improve postoperative pain management and reduce postsurgical opioid use. This retrospective claims-database study investigated the effects of LB versus non-LB analgesia on opioid use and healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) in patients receiving laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG).
Background And Objectives: Very low birth weight infants in the NICU are more susceptible to adverse outcomes. We recently described improving survival without major morbidity among very low birth weight infants in California. This study aims to examine whether this improvement was equitable across racial and ethnic groups.

A key challenge is to discover how interactions among fire-regime components, drought and land tenure shape wildfire impacts. The globally unprecedented 2019-2020 Australian megafires burnt more than 10 million hectares, prompting major investment in biodiversity monitoring.

Article Synopsis
- - The study investigated how factors like match exposure, travel demands, wellness perceptions, and musculoskeletal screening influence training load during national football team duties.
- - Researchers collected data on match minutes, travel duration, self-reported wellness metrics, and conducted musculoskeletal testing at the start of national team camp, measuring training load over the first three days using various performance metrics.
- - Results indicated that training load peaked on day 3, with only minor correlations between fatigue/soreness and performance metrics, suggesting that the training schedule at camp is more significant than prior match exposure.
Article Synopsis
- Optical pooled screening (OPS) is a method that connects images of cells with genetic changes, but it previously had limitations in its ability to analyze complex data in cancer cell lines.
- The new technology, PerturbView, improves OPS by amplifying genetic barcodes for more detailed and varied phenotype analysis across different biological systems, including stem cells and immune cells.
- PerturbView has unveiled both known and new regulatory mechanisms in immune pathways, and it can be integrated with spatial transcriptomics, enhancing the potential for comprehensive studies of cellular behaviors in complex tissue environments.
