The aim of this letter is to facilitate the standardisation of Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) codesets used to code injuries in trauma registries. We have compiled a definitive list of the changes which have been implemented between the AIS 2005 and Update 2008 versions. While the AIS 2008 codeset appears to have remained consistent since its release, we have identified discrepancies between the codesets in copies of AIS 2005 dictionaries. As a result, we recommend that use of the AIS 2005 should be discontinued in favour of the Update 2008 version.

Machine learning (ML) is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) that enables computers to learn from data and discern patterns without direct instruction. This review explores cutting-edge developments in microsurgery through the lens of AI applications. By analyzing a wide range of studies, this paper highlights AI's transformative role in enhancing microsurgical techniques and decision-making processes.

Aims: In repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF), the septal anatomical isthmuses (AI), AI 3, between the ventricular septal defect (VSD) and pulmonary annulus, and AI 4, between the VSD and tricuspid annulus, are important ventricular tachycardia (VT) substrates when slow conducting. Our aim was to assess the influence of VSD characteristics, specifically the presence of muscular or fibrous tissue at its border, on the presence or absence of septal AIs, potentially related to VT.
Methods And Results: All consecutive rTOF patients who underwent electroanatomical mapping between January 2005 and March 2023 with an available surgical report providing VSD details (n = 91) were included.

Background Application of multimodal large language models (LLMs) with both textual and visual capabilities has been steadily increasing, but their ability to interpret radiologic images is still doubted. Purpose To evaluate the accuracy of LLMs and compare it with that of human readers with varying levels of experience and to assess the factors affecting LLM accuracy in answering Image Challenge cases. Materials and Methods Radiologic images of cases from October 13, 2005, to April 18, 2024, were retrospectively reviewed.

Introduction: Cervical artery dissection (CAD) involves the carotid or vertebral artery. However, limited studies have compared their clinical features and outcomes.
Methods: We examined non-traumatic CAD patients from the National Inpatient Sample (2005-2019).

Purpose: This study explores the protective capabilities of bicycle helmets on serious head injury among bicyclists hospitalized in a Norwegian level 1 trauma centre.
Method: Information on helmet use, demographic variables, Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) and surgical procedure codes was retrieved from the Oslo University Hospital Trauma Registry for patients with bicycle-related injuries from 2005 through 2016. Outcomes were serious head injury defined as maximum AIS severity score ≥ 3 in the AIS region Head, any cranial neurosurgical procedure, and 30-day mortality.
