In 2014 - 2016 yrs transcutaneous nephrolithotripsy was performed in 245 patients for nephrolithiasis, of them in 228 (93.1%) - in position of patient lying on the abdomen (1st group), in 17 (6.9%) - lying on the back (2nd group) because of various concur- rent cardio-vascular and respiratory diseases present. Mini- transcutaneous nephro- lithotripsy was performed under regional epidural anesthesia in 224 (91.4%) patients, and under endotracheal narcosis - in 21 (8.6%). While conduction of mini- transcu- taneous nephrolithotripsy in position of patient lying on the back the operation duration is reducing, and it is possible to perform simultant endoscopic interventions (trans- ureteric, transcutaneous). Position of patient lying on the back while performing tran- scutaneous nephrolithotripsy in a complex with regional (epidural) anesthesia consti- tutes a relatively secure procedure. Hemodynamical and respiratory parameters are simply intraoperatively controlled, what is important for the patients, urologists and anesthesiologists. The complications rate and results of treatment are comparable with such while performing transcutaneous nephrolithotripsy in accordance to standard in position of patient lying on the abdomen.

Exploring socio-economic inequalities in mental healthcare utilization in adults with self-reported psychological distress: a survey-registry linked cohort design.
Epidemiol Psychiatr Sci

Department of Global Public Health, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden.
Aims: Although individuals with lower socio-economic position (SEP) have a higher prevalence of mental health problems than others, there is no conclusive evidence on whether mental healthcare (MHC) is provided equitably. We investigated inequalities in MHC use among adults in Stockholm County (Sweden), and whether inequalities were moderated by self-reported psychological distress.
Methods: MHC use was examined in 31,433 individuals aged 18-64 years over a 6-month follow-up period, after responding to the General Health Questionnaire-12 (GHQ-12) in 2014 or the Kessler Six (K6) in 2021.
An eHealth intervention for patients with a low socioeconomic position during their waiting period preceding cardiac rehabilitation: a randomized feasibility study.
Eur Heart J Digit Health
January 2025
Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Erasmus MC, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
Aims: Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) shows lower effectiveness and higher dropouts among people with a low socioeconomic position (SEP) compared to those with a high SEP. This study evaluated an eHealth intervention aimed at supporting patients with a low SEP during their waiting period preceding CR.
Methods And Results: Participants with a low SEP in their waiting period before CR were randomized into an intervention group, receiving guidance videos, patient narratives, and practical tips, or into a control group.
Prognostic analysis of endovascular mechanical thrombectomy in stroke patients with acute internal carotid artery obstruction based on circle of Willis variation.

Department of Neurosurgery, Shaoxing People's Hospital, Shaoxing, China.
Objective: Endovascular mechanical thrombectomy (EVMT) is widely employed in patients with acute intracranial carotid artery occlusion (AIICAO). This study aimed to predict the outcomes of EVMT following AIICAO by utilizing anatomic classification of the circle of Willis and its relative position to the thrombus.
Methods: In this study, we retrospectively analyzed a cohort of 108 patients with AIICAO who underwent endovascular mechanical thrombectomy (EVMT) at Shaoxing People's Hospital.

Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by chronic motor and phonic tics, with a higher prevalence among boys. This condition can significantly impact patients' learning and daily life. Due to the limited efficacy and potential side effects of pharmacological treatments for TS, there is a critical need to develop novel, tailored therapeutic strategies.
