Clinical performance of endoscopic ultrasound-guided tissue acquisition for perivascular soft-tissue cuffing suspected to be extravascular migratory metastases of pancreatic or bile duct cancer (with video).
Dig Endosc
December 2024
Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Oncology, National Cancer Center Hospital, Tokyo, Japan.
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic performance and safety of endoscopic ultrasound-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA) for perivascular soft-tissue cuffing (PSTC).
Methods: This single-center, retrospective study evaluated patients in whom EUS-TA was performed for PSTC in pancreatic or bile duct cancer lesions between October 2017 and March 2024. PSTC was defined as a perivascular soft-tissue area contiguous with nearby blood vessels from the suspected primary tumor.
Endovascular Treatment of Malfunctioning Dialysis Fistulas: A Multicenter Retrospective Analysis Comparing Transradial and Conventional Transvenous Access.
Catheter Cardiovasc Interv
December 2024
Radiology Unit, University Hospital Dulbecco, Catanzaro, Italy.
Background: Venous outflow is the favored access for endovascular management of dialysis fistulas. However, transradial access (TRA) offers advantages in specific clinical scenarios. The study aims to compare the efficacy, feasibility, and safety of TRA and transvenous access (TVA) in the endovascular management of malfunctioning dialysis fistulas, addressing the existing gap in comprehensive literature.

December 2024
Department of Anesthesiology, Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province Affiliated to Wenzhou Medical University, 317000 Taizhou, Zhejiang, China.
Aim: There is a lack of consensus regarding the efficacy of thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) and erector spinae plane block (ESPB) for postoperative pain in randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The comparison of TPVB and ESPB was explored through a systematic review and meta-analysis (MA) of relevant RCTs.
Methods: A comprehensive search of relevant literature was conducted using databases such as PubMed, Embase, and MEDLINE, from 2019 to June 2024.
Comparison of the Efficacy and Safety of Thyroid Microwave Ablation and Radiofrequency Ablation versus Open Surgery for the Treatment of Benign Thyroid Nodules: A Propensity Score Matching Study.

December 2024
Radiotherapy Department, Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University, 071003 Baoding, Hebei, China.
Aim: With the advantage of preserving thyroid function while minimizing intervention-related morbidity, minimally invasive thermal ablation techniques such as microwave ablation (MWA) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) have emerged as alternatives to traditional open surgery. This study compares the efficacy and safety of MWA and RFA with that of open surgery for the treatment of benign thyroid nodules by utilizing a propensity score matching study design to improve comparability.
Methods: This retrospective study included patients with benign thyroid nodules treated at the North China Electric Power University (Baoding) School Hospital between May 2020 and May 2023.
Efficacy of Percutaneous Kyphoplasty and Percutaneous Pedicle Screw Fixation in Managing Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures in Middle-Aged and Elderly Individuals: A Comparative Study.

December 2024
Department of Orthopedics, Suzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, 215000 Suzhou, Jiangsu, China.
Aim: This study is aims to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) and percutaneous pedicle screw fixation (PPSF) in managing osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) among middle-aged and elderly individuals.
Methods: A total of 142 patients aged 55-65 years were selected retrospectively from the Department of Orthopedics of our hospital from June 2021 to June 2023 and classified into PKP (n = 68) and PPSF (n = 74) groups. General data of patients were collected, and related perioperative indicators, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores, Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scores, changes in Cobb angle of the fractured vertebrae, vertebral compression rate, as well as postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.
