Postoperative Hemorrhage and Venous Thromboembolism in Patients with Pituitary Adenomas Under Acetylsalicylic Acid.

Postoperative hemorrhages (POHs) after pituitary adenoma surgery can have devastating consequences for patients. Many patients take acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) for the primary or secondary prevention of cardiovascular or stroke events. However, the impact of continued low-dose ASA use on the risk of postoperative hemorrhage and the frequency of thromboembolic events after discontinuing ASA in these patients remain poorly understood.

Reviewing the Evidence Base for Topical Steroid Withdrawal Syndrome in the Research Literature and Social Media Platforms: An Evidence Gap Map.

Background: Within the dermatological community, topical steroid withdrawal syndrome (TSWS) is a medically contested condition with a limited research base. Published studies on TSWS indicate that it is a distinct adverse effect of prolonged use of topical corticosteroids, but there is a paucity of high-quality research evidence. Among the "patient community," awareness has been increasing, with rapid growth in social media posts on TSWS and the introduction of online communities such as the International Topical Steroid Awareness Network.

Artifact identification and removal methodologies for intracranial pressure signals: a systematic scoping review.

. Intracranial pressure measurement (ICP) is an essential component of deriving of multivariate data metrics foundational to improving understanding of high temporal relationships in cerebral physiology. A significant barrier to this work is artifact ridden data.

The MARVIN Hypothesis: Linking Unhealthy Lifestyles to Intracranial Aneurysm Rupture Risk and Clinical Prognosis.

: The rising incidence of modifiable lifestyle risk factors and cardiovascular diseases, driven by poor diet, inactivity, excessive alcohol use, and smoking, may influence the development and rupture of intracranial aneurysms (IA). This study aimed to examine the impact of lifestyle-related and cardiovascular risk factors on IA rupture and patient outcomes. : We developed the "MARVIN" (Metabolic and Adverse Risk Factors and Vices Influencing Intracranial Aneurysms) model and conducted a retrospective analysis of 303 patients with 517 IAs, treated between 2007 and 2020.
