An ever-growing number of patients are being referred for coronary revascularization in an attempt to reduce morbidity or to reduce mortality. Multiple randomized trials comparing percutaneous and surgical coronary revascularization have been performed. The decision to proceed with percutaneous or surgical revascularization should be based ona thorough understanding of the short- and long-term risks and benefits of each procedure in conjunction with the individual patient's coronary arterial anatomy and clinical risk profile.

Although nonoperative management is the mainstay for rib fracture treatment, surgical stabilization of rib fractures is becoming more common. Recently, the number of high-quality studies on management of rib fractures has also increased. The primary purpose of this review is to analyze the currently available prospective randomized studies on the management of rib fractures.

Stock price prediction is a challenging research domain. The long short-term memory neural network (LSTM) widely employed in stock price prediction due to its ability to address long-term dependence and transmission of historical time signals in time series data. However, manual tuning of LSTM parameters significantly impacts model performance.

Biological relatedness is a key consideration in studies of behavior, population structure, and trait evolution. Except for parent-offspring dyads, pedigrees capture relatedness imperfectly. The number and length of identical-by-descent DNA segments (IBD) yield the most precise relatedness estimates.

Background And Objectives: Vertebral artery injury (VAI) because of traumatic subaxial cervical spine injury is a rare but potentially devastating condition as it could lead to stroke. The aim of this study was to examine the incidence, risk factors, outcomes, and radiographic predictors of VAI in patients surgically treated for subaxial cervical spine injuries at a tertiary care trauma center.

Methods: This is a retrospective population-based cohort study, including all patients surgically treated for traumatic subaxial cervical spine injuries at the study center between 2006 and 2018.
