Surgeons transitioning from laparoscopic to robotic-assisted inguinal hernia repair: a prospective analysis of efficiency.
Hernia
January 2025
Department of Surgery, Baptist Health South Florida, Miami, FL, USA.
Background: Available reports of surgeon efficiency when transitioning from laparoscopic to robotic-assisted (RA) inguinal hernia repair (IHR) are retrospective or describe single-center experience. The purpose of this study is to provide a prospective, multi-surgeon, multi-center assessment of surgeon efficiency when transitioning from Lap-IHR to RA-IHR.
Methods: General surgeons with Lap-IHR experience (≥300 Lap-IHRs prior to the study) but with no robotic experience (no RA cases one year prior to the study) consented to participate in this prospective, observational pilot study of their surgical efficiency as they adopted RA-IHR.
Personalized Cutoffs for the Diagnosis of Neutropenic Fever Based on Patients' Baseline Body Temperature: A Retrospective Pilot Study.
Cureus
December 2024
Public Health and Preventive Medicine, State University of New York Upstate Medical University, Syracuse, USA.
Background The management of neutropenic fever patients remains challenging. Patients' individual baseline body temperature may provide diagnostic and prognostic value. Methods This study is a retrospective analysis of 92 adults admitted for neutropenic fever to model the length of stay (LOS) and the ability to find a definitive diagnosis using the deviation of patients' temperature on admission from their outpatient baseline, acuity on admission, neutropenia level and persistence, fever persistence, and patients' age.

Zdr Varst
March 2025
Institute of General Practice, Johannes Kepler University Linz, Altenberger Str. 69, 4040 Linz, Austria.
Introduction: This study investigates the differences in patient care across various organisational forms of general practitioners (GPs) in Upper Austria.
Methods: Data was collected from GPs across Upper Austria, examining patient demographics, prescription patterns, staff employment, services offered and the proximity of practices to hospitals. The variability in recording patient visit reasons was also analysed.
Self-Reported Oral Health-Related Quality of Life and Orofacial Esthetics Among Young Adults With Treated Dental Trauma.
Clin Exp Dent Res
February 2025
Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Institute of Odontology at Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Gothenburg, Sweden.
Objectives: This study aimed to explore how young adults with a history of dental trauma and restored teeth perceive their oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and orofacial esthetics, with a focus on gender-based differences.
Materials And Methods: This pilot study is a retrospective case-control study. Young adults experiencing dental trauma and consequently receiving dental treatment were asked to answer CPQ11-14, Oral Esthetic Scale (OES), and some complimentary questions concerning the esthetics of their teeth.
Rapid response electroencephalography decreases time to seizure diagnosis in pediatric acute care patients.
Epilepsia Open
January 2025
Division of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, New York, USA.
Objectives: Pediatric status epilepticus (SE) carries a high risk of morbidity and mortality and can result in neurologic injury. Establishing seizure activity on conventional EEG (cEEG) is essential but can delay treatment of seizures due to technician limitations. Rapid response EEG (rrEEG) device Ceribell and its Brain Stethoscope function can be used and interpreted rapidly by bedside providers with minimal training.
