Objective: To estimate the efficacy of transversus abdominis plane block (TAP block) for laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LCE) in short-term acute care hospital.
Material And Methods: There were 443 LCEs under interfascial blockade in short-term acute care hospital between 2018 and 2021. For retrospective assessment of benefits of this analgesia, we distinguished the control group consisting of 384 patients who underwent LCE in a 24h-hospital without TAP block.

Today, the topic of digitalization, the introduction of innovations based on Big Data, the complexity of technologies due to the introduction of artificial intelligence in medicine and healthcare is one of the most relevant in this industry, undoubtedly contributing to its rapid development. As a result of this development, there is a huge number of services and applications. Internet resources, not only for health tracking (more than 3,500 applications are available by the end of 2023), but also the development of diagnostic resources, telemedicine, etc.

This study assesses, models, and maps the geographic patterns of community-level plant species richness in the Western Siberian Arctic and estimates the relative impact of environmental and anthropogenic factors driving these patterns. With our study, we aim at contributing toward conservation efforts for Arctic plant diversity in the Western Siberian Arctic.

The wide application of different delimitation schemes in various ecological studies and climatic scenarios raises the following questions: (i) What are the common criteria to define the High and Low Arctic? (ii) Could human impact significantly change the distribution of the delimitation criteria? (iii) Is the widely accepted temperature criterion still relevant given ongoing climate change? and (iv) Could we locate the High-Low Arctic boundary by mapping these criteria derived from modern open remote sensing and climatic data? Researchers rely on common criteria for geobotanical delimitation of the Arctic.
