Article Synopsis
- The text outlines the challenges of conducting research on cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) due to its rarity, emphasizing the need for a prioritized international research agenda to enhance prevention, diagnosis, and treatment for better patient outcomes.
- The agenda was developed during a summit in June 2023, involving 45 participants from 15 countries, including clinical researchers, former CVT patients, and representatives from funding organizations, focused on key research themes.
- It categorizes essential research questions into themes like epidemiology, diagnosis, medical treatment, and more, aiming to inspire future research, foster collaboration, and help secure funding to address these critical questions in CVT.
Article Synopsis
- The study reviews the effectiveness of activated charcoal in treating amatoxin poisoning by disrupting enterohepatic circulation.
- It analyzes data from 1,119 cases across 133 publications, finding that patients treated with activated charcoal had a higher survival rate (83%) compared to the control group (75%).
- While activated charcoal did not significantly impact certain liver enzyme levels, it did reduce total serum bilirubin and international normalized ratio, suggesting better overall outcomes for treated patients.
Purpose: This study aimed to describe the 24-hour cycle of wearable sensor-obtained heart rate in patients with deterioration-free recovery and to compare it with patients experiencing postoperative deterioration.
Methods: A prospective observational trial was performed in patients following bariatric or major abdominal cancer surgery. A wireless accelerometer patch (Healthdot) continuously measured postoperative heart rate, both in the hospital and after discharge, for a period of 14 days.
Background: Remote monitoring is increasingly used to support postoperative care. This study aimed to describe the lessons learned from the use of telemonitoring in an outpatient bariatric surgery pathway.
Materials And Methods: Patients were assigned based on their preference to an intervention cohort of same-day discharge after bariatric surgery.
