Intubation of patients requiring cervical spine immobilization can be challenging. Recently, the use of C-MAC video laryngoscopes (VL) has increased in popularity over direct laryngoscopy (DL). We aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy of C-MAC VL as compared with DL for intubation in C-spine immobilized patients.

Background: In recent years, brain banks have become a valuable resource for examining the molecular underpinnings of various neurological and psychological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease; however, the availability of brain tissue has significantly declined. Proper collection, preparation, and preservation of post-mortem autopsy tissue are essential for optimal downstream brain tissue distribution and experimentation. Collaborations between brain banks through larger networks such as NeuroBioBank with centralized sample request mechanisms promote tissue distribution where brain donations are disproportionately lower.
