"Just Listen to Me. Help Me Explore it." An Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis Exploring Experiences of Gender Dysphoria, Identity And Resilience in Autistic Adolescents Assigned Female at Birth.

Much of the current autism and gender literature has been based within a medical deficiency model; where both are seen as deficiencies rather than differences. However, there is currently minimal knowledge about the experiences of being an autistic adolescent who is both assigned female at birth and has gender dysphoria (GD), whilst even less is known about their experiences of social identity, self-concept and resilience. This study aims to explore experiences of GD with a particular focus on identity and resilience to promote parent and healthcare staff understanding; particularly around gender-affirming care, to foster positive mental health outcomes.

Safety of Adjunctive Intraarterial Tenecteplase Following Mechanical Thrombectomy: The ALLY Pilot Trial.

Background: Recent studies suggest that the use of adjunctive intraarterial alteplase after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) may improve outcomes; however, there are limited data on the use of intraarterial tenecteplase, a newer-generation lytic, in this acute ischemic stroke patient population. Here, we evaluate the use of intraarterial tenecteplase in the ALLY pilot study (Adjunctive Intraarterial Tenecteplase Following Mechanical Thrombectomy).

Methods: ALLY was a prospective, single-center, nonrandomized pilot study assessing the feasibility and safety of intraarterial tenecteplase up to 4.

Mechanical properties of the bicipital aponeurosis.

As a biarticular muscle, the biceps brachii both supinates the forearm and flexes the elbow and shoulder, thus allowing the upper limb to perform a variety of activities of daily living (ADL). The biceps brachii originates on the coracoid apex as well as the supraglenoid tubercle and inserts on the radial tuberosity. At the distal end, the bicipital aponeurosis (BA) provides a transition of the biceps tendon into the antebrachial fascia.

Rethinking the pan scan in stable trauma: A comparison of whole-body computed tomography and selective imaging in clinically stable blunt force trauma.

Objective: To compare the frequency of clinically significant missed injuries in clinically stable trauma patients undergoing initial whole-body computed tomography (WBCT) versus selective imaging. Secondary objectives include comparisons of radiation exposure, incidental findings, ED length of stay (LOS), hospital LOS and mortality.

Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of trauma activations at a tertiary trauma centre in patients with normal vital signs from 1st January 2022 to 31st December 2022.
