Background: Coronary Artery Spasm (CAS) often presents in the epicardial coronary arteries. The anterior septal branch is distributed within the myocardium, and occurrences of spasms are rare. Currently, there is no available literature on this topic, and the onset of symptoms remains elusive, potentially leading to misdiagnosis.

Introduction: It is largely accepted that migraine with aura (MA) is caused by cortical spreading depression (CSD) and that migraine without aura (MO) is not. This is mostly based on old studies of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and studies of vascular responses. These studies are partly forgotten today and may, therefore, be worthwhile reviewing.

The Institute for Safe Medication Practices and the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists have advocated for removing all injectable promethazine from inpatient and outpatient settings; however, this drug is still being used despite the risk for tissue necrosis, gangrene, and possible amputation when it inadvertently is given by the subcutaneous or intra-arterial route. This article describes alternative injectable medications that can be selected based on patient comorbidities, indications, and clinician experience.

Mesenchymal stem cells are used most in regenerative medicine due to their capacities in differentiation and immune modulation. The intraosseous injection of MSC into the bone has been recommended because of expected outcomes for retention, bioavailability, and enhanced therapeutic efficacy, particularly in conditions involving the bone, such as osteoporosis and osteonecrosis. A review of the intraosseous delivery of mesenchymal stem cells in comparison with intravenous and intra-arterial delivery methods will be subjected to critical examination.

Purpose: The aim of this systematic review and survival analysis was to quantify the benefits of orthobiologic augmentation therapies for the treatment of avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head and identify the most effective approach to delay the need for total hip arthroplasty (THA).
Methods: A systematic review of the literature was performed on PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane on clinical studies on orthobiologic therapies used alone or as an augmentation to core decompression or other procedures to address hip AVN. A qualitative analysis of the different biological therapies applied was performed.
