Limited Evidence of Functional Benefit After Upper Limb Botulinum Toxin Treatment in Children With Cerebral Palsy: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Am J Phys Med Rehabil
February 2025
From the Centre for Translational Medicine, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary (OZG, MV, MAE, LS, ZM, PH, TT); Department of Orthopaedics, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary (OZG, MV, TT); Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Therapy, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary (ZM); Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Therapy, Poznan University for Medical Sciences, Poznan, Poland (ZM); and Institute of Pancreatic Diseases, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary (PH).
Objectives: This systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials aimed to summarize the reported functional effects of upper limb botulinum toxin treatment in children with spastic cerebral palsy.
Design: Six databases were searched in October 2022. Two independent authors screened and extracted data on upper limb function, body function, life quality, muscle tone, spasticity, goals, pain, adverse events, and client satisfaction.
The relationship between health-related quality of life and academic success in nursing students: the mediating role of academic burnout and academic motivation.

Department of Community Health Nursing, School of Nursing and Midwifery, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.
Background: The identification of the key factors that affect academic success in nursing students, including health-related quality of life, academic burnout, and academic motivation, has been of the utmost importance to date. In this context, the present study sought to examine the relationship between health-related quality of life and academic success, with academic burnout and academic motivation mediating that relationship.
Methods: This analytical cross-sectional study included 262 eligible nursing students selected through convenience sampling from the School of Nursing and Midwifery at Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.
Optimizing Intravenous Patient-Controlled Analgesia for Cancer Pain: A Randomized Controlled Trial on Adjusted Background Infusion Rates.
JCO Oncol Pract
January 2025
Division of Medical Oncology, Yonsei Cancer Center, Department of Internal Medicine, Yonsei University College of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Purpose: Patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) has been considered for managing cancer pain; however, limited research has been conducted on optimizing continuous infusion rates with PCA. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a method that optimizes background infusion (BI) alongside PCA for titrating intravenous (IV) morphine in managing cancer-related pain.
Methods: Forty-four patients with solid tumors who could not manage pain with oral or transdermal opioid analgesics were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive IV morphine through PCA or the conventional method.
Developing an EEG-based model to predict awakening after cardiac arrest using partial processing with the BIS Engine.

Introduction: Accurate prognostication in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest is a challenging and high-stakes endeavor. We sought to determine whether internal EEG subparameters extracted by the Bispectral Index (BIS) monitor, a device commonly used to estimate depth-of-anesthesia intraoperatively, could be repurposed to predict recovery of consciousness after cardiac arrest.
Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we trained a 3-layer neural network to predict recovery of consciousness to the point of command following versus not based on 48 hours of continuous EEG recordings in 315 comatose patients admitted to a single US academic medical center after cardiac arrest (Derivation cohort: N=181; Validation cohort: N=134).
