Background: Cataract surgeries are increasing annually, making appropriate medical management essential. The routine use of systemic antimicrobial agents for preventing surgical site infections lacks strong evidence and may increase the risk of drug-resistant bacteria and adverse events. This study examined the impact of discontinuing cefazolin (CEZ) administration during the perioperative period of cataract surgery on the incidence of postoperative adverse events and medical costs.

Objective: Carotid artery disease is a major cause of stroke for which the standard treatment has traditionally been a combination of medical management and intervention, including both carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and transfemoral carotid artery stenting (TF-CAS). In recent years, transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) has been adopted as a promising treatment following FDA approval in 2015. In terms of stroke reduction, TCAR has been found to have equivalent outcomes with CEA with shorter operative times.

Additionally, a preclinical model of neonatal procedural pain established lower adult post-operative MOR-1 levels in the spinal cord.

Groove pancreatitis (GP) is a chronic segmental pancreatitis which leads to altered pancreatic secretions and pancreatitis.

The resulting chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a debilitating disease causing abdominal pain often refractory to medical therapy, so much that the main indication for surgical treatment is intractable abdominal pain.
