Utilization of the Modified Brain Injury Guidelines by Neurosurgeons to Improve Traumatic Brain Injury Patient Throughput at a Level I Trauma Center: A Retrospective Observational Study.

Objective: The modified Brain Injury Guidelines (mBIG) were developed to improve care of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). This study aimed to assess if utilization of mBIG by neurosurgeons would improve TBI patient throughput at a Level I trauma center, particularly for patients meeting mBIG 1 criteria.

Methods: This was a retrospective observational study at a Level I trauma center.

Brain Health Indicators Following Acute Neuro-Exergaming: Biomarker and Cognition in Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) after Pedal-n-Play (iPACES).

Facing an unrelenting rise in dementia cases worldwide, researchers are exploring non-pharmacological ways to ameliorate cognitive decline in later life. Twenty older adults completed assessments before and after a single bout of interactive physical and cognitive exercise, by playing a neuro-exergame that required pedaling and steering to control progress in a tablet-based video game tailored to impact executive function (the interactive Physical and Cognitive Exercise System; iPACES v2). This study explored the cognitive and biomarker outcomes for participants with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and normative older adults after 20 min of pedal-to-play exercise.

Analysis of root morphology and internal anatomy of 400 maxillary first premolars using cone-beam computed tomography in an Indian Dravidian subpopulation: An study.

Background: There have been numerous cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) studies done over the years to analyze the canal configurations among various racial and ethnic population groups. Several of these studies have highlighted a certain consistency in the incidence of particular features within these population subsets.

Aim: The study aimed to analyze the root morphology and canal configurations of the maxillary first premolar (Mx1PM) in the Indian Dravidian subpopulation using CBCT.

Endoscopic retrieval of an accidentally ingested bur during a dental procedure: a case report.

Background: Accidental ingestion of a dental bur during the dental procedure is a rare, but a potentially serious complication. Early recognition and foreign body retrieval is essential to prevent adverse patient outcomes.

Case Presentation: A 76-year old male patient, presented to the department with a chief complaint of sensitivity in his upper right back tooth due to attrition.
