Naso-Orbital-Ethmoid Fracture Repair Techniques: A Systematic Review.

Purpose: Naso-orbital-ethmoid (NOE) complex fractures present a challenge to repair. The classification system used to categorize the fracture type was established in 1991 based off the medial canthal tendon attachment. The primary objective was to systematically review the literature outlining repair techniques for NOE fracture after the adoption of the Markowitz classification system.

Cryptic species in a colorful genus: Integrative taxonomy of the bush robins (Aves, Muscicapidae, Tarsiger) suggests two overlooked species.

Several cryptic avian species have been validated by recent integrative taxonomic efforts in the Sino-Himalayan mountains, indicating that avian diversity in this global biodiversity hotspot may be underestimated. In the present study, we investigated species limits in the genus Tarsiger, the bush robins, a group of montane forest specialists with high species richness in the Sino-Himalayan region. Based on comprehensive sampling of all 11 subspecies of the six currently recognized species, we applied an integrative taxonomic approach by combining multilocus, acoustic, plumage and morphometric analyses.

Opioid-Free Thyroid and Parathyroid Operations: Are Patients Satisfied With Pain Control?

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate pain control and patient satisfaction using an opioid-free analgesic regimen following thyroid and parathyroid operations.

Methods: Surveys were distributed to all postoperative patients following total thyroidectomy, thyroid lobectomy, and parathyroidectomy between January and April 2020. After surgery, patients were discharged without opioids except in rare cases based on patient needs and surgeon judgment.
