Graduate School of Medicine, Mie University, Tsu, Japan.
Background: Delirium is a condition characterized by an acute and transient disturbance in attention, cognition, and consciousness. It is increasingly prevalent at the end of life in patients with cancer. While non-pharmacological nursing interventions are essential for delirium prevention, their effectiveness in terminally ill patients with cancer remains unclear.

1Department of Neurosurgery, Inselspital, Bern University Hospital, University Bern, Switzerland.
Objective: The effectiveness and optimal stimulation site of deep brain stimulation (DBS) for central poststroke pain (CPSP) remain elusive. The objective of this retrospective international multicenter study was to assess clinical as well as neuroimaging-based predictors of long-term outcomes after DBS for CPSP.
Methods: The authors analyzed patient-based clinical and neuroimaging data of previously published and unpublished cohorts from 6 international DBS centers.
Quality of Sexual Life Before and After Pelvic Organ Prolapse Surgery.
Urogynecology (Phila)
October 2024
Aava Medical Center, Hämeenlinna, Finland.
Importance: Although surgery for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is generally associated with an improvement in sexual function, knowledge on specific changes is limited.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe and compare changes in sexual activity and function during a 5-year follow-up period after POP surgery.
Study Design: This was a nationwide cohort study of 3,515 women operated on for POP in 2015 in Finland.
Chronic Pain Treatment Utilization in Rural Versus Urban/Suburban Inhabitants Following Traumatic Brain Injury.
J Head Trauma Rehabil
January 2025
Author Affiliations: Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington (Drs Bale and Hoffman); and Craig Hospital Research Department, Englewood, Colorado (Mr Sevigny).
Objective: To determine whether there are differences in healthcare utilization for chronic pain based on location (rural vs urban/suburban) or healthcare system (civilians vs Military Service Members and Veterans [SMVs]) after moderate-severe TBI.
Setting: Eighteen Traumatic Brain Injury Model Systems (TBIMS) Centers.
Participants: A total of 1,741 TBIMS participants 1 to 30 years post-injury reporting chronic pain at their most recent follow-up interview.
A propofol binding site in the voltage sensor domain mediates inhibition of HCN1 channel activity.
Sci Adv
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO 63110, USA.
Hyperpolarization-activated and cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) ion channels are members of the cyclic nucleotide-binding family and are crucial for regulating cellular automaticity in many excitable cells. HCN channel activation contributes to pain perception, and propofol, a widely used anesthetic, acts as an analgesic by inhibiting the voltage-dependent activity of HCN channels. However, the molecular determinants of propofol action on HCN channels remain unknown.
