First pass effect in patients with large core infarcts undergoing mechanical thrombectomy: subgroup analysis of the prospective international ASSIST registry.

Background: Studies have described a first pass effect (FPE) where patients with successful recanalization after one pass experience better outcomes. Few studies have evaluated this in patients with large core infarctions.

Objective: To determine whether patients with large core infarcts undergoing mechanical thrombectomy in which first pass reperfusion is achieved experience improved outcomes compared with those who undergo more than one pass.

Family screening for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Initial cardiologic assessment, and long-term follow-up of genotype-positive phenotype-negative individuals.

Aims: (i) Investigate the prevalence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in individuals with pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP) gene variants detected through family cascade testing in relatives, and (ii) evaluate phenotypic progression in genotype-positive phenotype-negative (G+/P-) individuals during follow-up.

Results: From 2000 to 2023, 273 individuals underwent cardiologic evaluation following P/LP variant detection through family screening. Upon initial evaluation, HCM was diagnosed in 128 (47 %) individuals.

Predicting sepsis mortality into an era of pandrug-resistant E. coli through modeling.

Background: Infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria are increasingly frequent, burdening healthcare systems worldwide. As pathogens acquire resistance to all known antibiotics - i.e.

Efficacy of an online self-management program for chronic burn pain: A randomized controlled trial of the Take Charge of Burn Pain program.

This randomized controlled trial investigated the effectiveness of an online self-management program, "Take Charge of Burn Pain (TCBP)," for 96 individuals living with chronic burn pain. Participants were randomly assigned to either the 7-week TCBP program integrating cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques, pain education, and self-management strategies or an attention control group focused on general burn recovery information. Assessments conducted at baseline, post-treatment, and 2- and 5-month follow-ups included measures of pain severity, pain interference, pain self-efficacy, posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms, and depression.
