224 thoracoscopies were performed to patients with spontaneous and traumatic pneumothorax. Curative thoracoscopy (diathermocoagulation, laser coagulation) was performed in 93 patients, in 42 patients medical glues were used. Out of 93 patients who had been subjected to curative thoracotomy endoscopic operations gave no effect in 5 patients only. Complications after thoracoscopy were noted in 4 patients (2 patients had exudative pleurisy, 2 patients had subcutaneous emphysema).

Management of Catheter-Related Urethral Injuries in Male Children.

Paediatric Surgery, Bristol Royal Hospital for Children, Bristol, GBR.
Introduction: Management of urethral trauma lacks clarity in the paediatric population. There is no clear guidance for management and follow-up of these patients which can lead to missing the long-term sequelae of the primary injury. Catheter-associated urethral injuries are less likely to cause a complete transaction of the urethra.

Objective: The administration of amiodarone or lidocaine is recommended during the resuscitation of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients presenting with defibrillation-refractory or recurrent ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia. Our objective was to use 'target trial emulation' methodology to compare the outcomes of patients who received amiodarone or lidocaine during resuscitation.
Methods: Adult, non-traumatic OHCA patients in the ESO Data Collaborative 2018-2023 datasets who experienced OHCA prior to EMS arrival, presented with a shockable rhythm, and received amiodarone or lidocaine during resuscitation were evaluated for inclusion.
Resilience of Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats to Secondary Insults After Traumatic Brain Injury: Immediate Seizures, Survival, and Stress Response.

Department of Functional Biochemistry of the Nervous System, Institute of Higher Nervous Activity and Neurophysiology, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow 117485, Russia.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the primary causes of mortality and disability, with arterial blood pressure being an important factor in the clinical management of TBI. Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs), widely used as a model of essential hypertension and vascular dementia, demonstrate dysfunction of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, which may contribute to glucocorticoid-mediated hippocampal damage. The aim of this study was to assess acute post-TBI seizures, delayed mortality, and hippocampal pathology in SHRs and normotensive Sprague Dawley rats (SDRs).

Objective: To analyze the factors related to spontaneous re-eruption after intruded injury in permanent anterior teeth in children and adolescents.
Methods: Clinical data from 5- to 17-year-old patients who sustained intrusive luxation of permanent anterior teeth and treated in the Department of Pedia-tric Dentistry of Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology from June 2015 to August 2024 were reviewed. Information of age, gender, degree of intrusion, direction of intrusion, tooth development, concomitant injuries, luxation and post-osteoclastic eruption of the adjacent teeth were recorded.
The association between initial defibrillation dose and outcomes following adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest resuscitation: a retrospective, multi-agency study.
Resuscitation
January 2025
West Virginia University School of Medicine, Department of Surgery.
Introduction: Effective defibrillation is essential to out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survival. International guidelines recommend initial defibrillation energies between 120 and 360 Joules, which has led to widespread practice variation. Leveraging this natural experiment, we aimed to explore the association between initial defibrillation dose and outcome following OHCA.
