Noncardiac chest computerized tomography scan as a predictor for plaque presence in coronary artery.
Coron Artery Dis
January 2025
Intensive Cardiac Care Department, Ziv Medical Center.
Background: Coronary artery calcium, a marker of coronary atherosclerosis, is often identified on noncoronary chest computed tomography (CT). We wanted to evaluate the correlation between the presence of coronary plaques in coronary artery catheterization and coronary calcifications as shown in noncardiac chest CT.
Methods: A retrospective case-control study consisting of cases (N = 63) and controls (N = 29), aged 18-70 years old, residing in northern Israel and treated in the Intensive Cardiac Care Unit of Ziv Medical Center, between January 2020 and November 2022.
A New Design for Aortic Arch Surgery: Ex Vivo Implantation and Computerized Flow Evaluation of the ISLAND Graft.
Innovations (Phila)
December 2024
Department of Neurosciences and Rehabilitation, Cardiac Surgery Unit, University of Ferrara, Italy.
Objective: Both the en bloc island technique and the branched graft technique (BGT) present advantages but also limitations in aortic arch surgery. Here is the first presentation of an innovative prosthesis for aortic arch replacement, conceived to overcome the disadvantages of both techniques.
Methods: The novel ISLAND graft is a tubular Dacron or hybrid prosthesis with an additional extended Dacron graft ("bubble") on the superior aspect, for en bloc island graft anastomosis.
Guidelines for Patient-Centered Documentation in the Era of Open Notes: Qualitative Study.
JMIR Med Educ
January 2025
Department of Women's and Children's Health, Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden.
Background: Patients in the United States have recently gained federally mandated, free, and ready electronic access to clinicians' computerized notes in their medical records ("open notes"). This change from longstanding practice can benefit patients in clinically important ways, but studies show some patients feel judged or stigmatized by words or phrases embedded in their records. Therefore, it is imperative that clinicians adopt documentation techniques that help both to empower patients and minimize potential harms.

December 2024
Asif Bashir, MD, FAANS, FACS Professor of Neurosurgery, Department of Neurosurgery Unit-I, Punjab Institute of Neurosciences, Lahore, Pakistan.
Objectives: To analyze the efficacy of K-line in surgical planning of approach selection for ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) and outcomes assessment by Nurick grading and Modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association (mJOA) scores.
Methods: This is a retrospective case series study conducted at the Departments of Neurosurgery, Punjab Institute of Neurosciences, Lahore in the months of January and February 2024. Patients with complete records were considered.
Computer case-based reasoning simulation versus traditional lectures for medical interns teaching of diagnosis and antibiotic prescribing for acute respiratory infection: a comparative quasi-experimental study.
BMC Med Educ
December 2024
Department of Medical Informatics, Faculty of Medicine, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran.
Background: Acute respiratory infections are a common presentation in clinical practice and medical interns must learn proper diagnosis and antibiotic prescribing. Traditional lecture-based teaching may not provide sufficient opportunities for students to apply their knowledge in realistic scenarios, whereas computer case-based simulations offer an alternative approach that allows active learning and decision-making in simulated patient cases. This study investigated the effectiveness of computer case-based reasoning simulation versus traditional lectures for medical interns teaching of diagnosis and antibiotic prescribing for acute respiratory infections.
