Effectiveness of ultrasound-guided ilioinguinal and iliohypogastric nerve block in pediatric inguinal hernia surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Med Ultrason
November 2024
Department of Anesthesiology, Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University, Baoding.
Aim: To evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound-guided ilioinguinal and iliohypogastric nerve block (IIHB) in children undergoing surgery for inguinal hernias.
Material And Methods: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were searched to January 4, 2024. For continuous data, the effect sizes were presented as weighted mean differences (WMDs), and for categorical data, they were reported as relative ratios (RR), each accompanied by 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

- Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a rare genetic disorder that leads to abnormal calcium deposits in elastic tissue, causing skin changes and other health issues.
- The study focused on a 13-year-old patient with flare-ups in PXE lesions, leading to a closer examination of the inflammation involved through skin biopsies and various analyses.
- Findings showed inflammation with T-cell infiltrates in the skin, particularly with a Th1 response, suggesting an inflammatory role in PXE disease, but the exact impact on the condition needs more research.
Effectiveness of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy on Groin Surgical Site Infection After Lower Extremity Bypass for Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia.
Ann Vasc Surg
November 2024
Division of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, Duke University, Durham, NC.
Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) are a common cause of patient morbidity, hospital readmission, and reoperation after lower extremity bypass (LEBs) surgery for chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). Recent studies on the use of incisional negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) in LEB surgery have reported conflicting results. In this single-center study, we examined our experience on the impact of NPWT on groin SSI rates after LEB surgery.
