Cetorhinicola acanthocapax Beveridge & Campbell, 1988 is redescribed based on adult specimens collected from a basking shark Cetorhinus maximus (Gunnerus) off the east coast of New Zealand. Both the mature and gravid segments are described for the first time, and the first scanning electron micrographs of the armature and scolex microtriches are provided. Novel features include the opening of the vagina anterior to the cirrus-sac and the extension of the vagina anterior to the cirrus-sac. Pectinate microtriches are present on the anterior quarter of the pars pedunculus scolecis scattered between filiform microtriches; the bothrial margins are covered with tridigitate microtriches, while the adherent surface of the bothria have pectinate microtriches. The additional morphological features described are consistent with a close association between Cetorhinicola Beveridge & Campbell, 1988 and the Eutetrarhynchoidea Guiart, 1927.

Article Synopsis
- Background: The study focused on the effectiveness of tranexamic acid in preventing bleeding and reducing the need for platelet transfusions in patients with blood cancers receiving intensive treatment.
- Methods: An international trial (TREATT) involved 616 adults under chemotherapy or stem-cell transplant, who were randomly assigned to receive either tranexamic acid or a placebo while monitored for bleeding and platelet recovery.
- Findings: Out of 1736 screened patients, 597 were included in the final analysis, revealing demographic details and outcomes related to bleeding events and mortality rates among the two groups.
Efficacy and safety of commonly used thromboprophylaxis agents following hip and knee arthroplasty.
Bone Joint J
September 2024
College of Medicine and Public Health, Flinders University, Adelaide, Australia.
Aims: We investigated the efficacy and safety profile of commonly used venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis agents following hip and knee arthroplasty.
Methods: A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and OrthoSearch was performed. Prophylaxis agents investigated were aspirin (< 325 mg and ≥ 325 mg daily), enoxaparin, dalteparin, fondaparinux, unfractionated heparin, warfarin, rivaroxaban, apixaban, and dabigatran.

BMJ
December 2023
Health Services Research Unit, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, UK.
Objective: To assess the clinical and cost effectiveness of conservative management compared with laparoscopic cholecystectomy for the prevention of symptoms and complications in adults with uncomplicated symptomatic gallstone disease.
Design: Parallel group, pragmatic randomised, superiority trial.
Setting: 20 secondary care centres in the UK.
Digital interventions to reduce social isolation and loneliness in older adults: An evidence and gap map.
Campbell Syst Rev
December 2023
World Health Organization Geneva Switzerland.
Background: Social isolation and loneliness are more common in older adults and are associated with a serious impact on their well-being, mental health, physical health, and longevity. They are a public health concern highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions, hence the need for digital technology tools to enable remotely delivered interventions to alleviate the impact of social isolation and loneliness during the COVID-19 restrictions.
Objectives: To map available evidence on the effects of digital interventions to mitigate social isolation and/or loneliness in older adults in all settings except hospital settings.
Musculoskeletal manifestations associated with transthyretin-mediated (ATTR) amyloidosis: a systematic review.
BMC Musculoskelet Disord
September 2023
Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA, US.
Background: Hereditary and wild-type transthyretin-mediated (ATTRv and ATTRwt) amyloidoses result from the misfolding of transthyretin and aggregation of amyloid plaques in multiple organ systems. Diagnosis of ATTR amyloidosis is often delayed due to its heterogenous and non-specific presentation. This review investigates the association of musculoskeletal (MSK) manifestations with ATTR amyloidosis and the delay from the onset of these manifestations to the diagnosis of ATTR amyloidosis.
