Article Synopsis
  • Laparoscopy surgery introduces challenges like fatigue that can impact surgeons' performance, necessitating a study to understand fatigue's effects on surgical precision and safety.
  • This research involves 29 surgical residents and focuses on how general fatigue affects their performance during training exercises, evaluating criteria such as movement quality, muscle activation, and perceived workload.
  • The study is ethically approved and aims to publish its findings in scientific journals and present them at international conferences to enhance future research.

Purpose: The performance metric associated with the execution of the 1-min sit-to-stand (1STS) typically relies on the number repetitions completed in 1 min. This parameter presents certain limitations (e.g.

The response of spinal motoneurons to synaptic input greatly depends on the activation of persistent inward currents (PICs), the contribution of which can be estimated through the paired motor unit technique. Yet, the intra-session test-retest reliability of this measurement remains to be fully established. Twenty males performed isometric triangular dorsiflexion contractions to 20 and 50 % of maximal torque at baseline and after a 15-min resting period.

Article Synopsis
  • Surgical residents in France currently lack a standardized framework for assessing their autonomy in the operating room, which is crucial for their confidence and future independent practice.
  • The study reviewed 231 publications and identified 21 that met specific criteria, revealing a variety of autonomy assessment tools, with the Zwisch Scale being the most commonly used among them.
  • The research highlights the need for better-defined measures of surgical autonomy, as well as understanding the various factors that influence it, to enhance training and teaching methods in the surgical field.
