Value driven outcome (VDO) assessment for the treatment of olecranon fractures.

Purpose: Controversy remains about the ideal construct for certain olecranon fractures. The purpose of this study was to compare cost-effectiveness with the value driven outcomes tool between fixation strategies of olecranon fractures.
Methods: All surgically treated isolated proximal ulna fractures (CPT code 24,685) at a level 1 trauma center from 2013 to 2023 were retrospectively reviewed.
Persistent cognitive fatigue (CF) is the most reported symptom in Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 Infection (PASC), but little is known about its underlying neural basis. This pilot study examined fMRI brain activation patterns during a fatiguing task in those with and without PASC. We hypothesized that individuals with PASC would show changes in CF-related brain activation within fatigue network.

Methods: A retrospective, single-center study of patients with PNI from 2017 to 2022 was performed.
Article Synopsis
- Evidence shows that human-induced waste significantly impacts deep-ocean ecosystems, with debris being found even in remote areas during initial explorations.
- A study in the tropical Atlantic and Caribbean Sea recorded various types of marine debris, including plastic, metal, and glass, at depths ranging from 250 to over 6000 meters, observed using submersibles.
- The discovery of 139 debris items—such as a ladder, clothing, and single-use packaging—highlights the severity of pollution in these deep waters and underscores the importance of understanding its effects on ocean sustainability.
