Remission and recovery rates for people with first-episode psychosis (FEP) remain uncertain.To assess pooled prevalence rates of remission and recovery in FEP and to investigate potential moderators.We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess pooled prevalence rates of remission and recovery in FEP in longitudinal studies with more than 1 year of follow-up data, and conducted meta-regression analyses to investigate potential moderators.Seventy-nine studies were included representing 19072 patients with FEP. The pooled rate of remission among 12301 individuals with FEP was 58% (60 studies, mean follow-up 5.5 years). Higher remission rates were moderated by studies from more recent years. The pooled prevalence of recovery among 9642 individuals with FEP was 38% (35 studies, mean follow-up 7.2 years). Recovery rates were higher in North America than in other regions.Remission and recovery rates in FEP may be more favourable than previously thought. We observed stability of recovery rates after the first 2 years, suggesting that a progressive deteriorating course of illness is not typical. Although remission rates have improved over time recovery rates have not, raising questions about the effectiveness of services in achieving improved recovery.

Acute therapeutic effects and pathophysiology of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis neuropathy.
BMJ Neurol Open
January 2025
Department of Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience, Yamaguchi University Graduate School of Medicine, Ube, Japan.
Objective: This study investigated the effects of early treatment and pathophysiology on eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis neuropathy (EGPA-N).
Methods: Twenty-six consecutive patients with EGPA-N were diagnosed and treated within a day of admission and underwent clinical analysis. Peripheral nerve recovery rates were evaluated after early treatment by identifying the damaged peripheral nerve through detailed neurological findings.
Advancements in minimally invasive surgery for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: A case series and literature review.

Neuroscience Spine Center, Taichung Tzu Chi Hospital, Buddhist Tzu Chi Medical Foundation, Taichung, Taiwan.
Objectives: Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has emerged as a promising alternative to conventional open techniques in the management of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).
Materials And Methods: This study presents a case series of six patients who underwent MIS for AIS at a spine center, employing a synergistic blend of intraoperative fluoroscopy, cone-beam computed tomography scans, and three-dimensional navigation technology. The surgical procedures were meticulously guided, with a focus on ensuring safety and precision in posterior pedicle fixation.
The effect of thermoelectric craniocerebral cooling device on protecting brain functions in post-cardiac arrest syndrome.
Front Cardiovasc Med
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology and Reanimation, Faculty of Medicine, Bezmialem Vakif University, Istanbul, Türkiye.
Aim: This study aimed to protect brain functions in patients who experienced in-hospital cardiac arrest through the application of local cerebral hypothermia. By utilizing a specialized thermal hypothermia device, this approach sought to mitigate ischemic brain injury associated with post-cardiac arrest syndrome, enhance survival rates, and improve neurological outcomes as measured by standardized scales.
Methods: A prospective, single-center cohort study was conducted involving patients aged ≥18 years who experienced in-hospital cardiac arrest and achieved return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).
Comparative Outcomes of Early Versus Late Conversion to Total Hip Arthroplasty Following Hip Fracture Fixation.
J Arthroplasty
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Tulane University School of Medicine, 1415 Tulane Ave, New Orleans, Louisiana, 70112, USA.
Background: Hip fractures are prevalent orthopaedic injuries with substantial morbidity and mortality. Failed primary treatments of these fractures often necessitate conversion to total hip arthroplasty (CTHA); a complex procedure requiring extensive exposure and hardware removal. It poses major challenges and is associated with high rates of complications such as infection, dislocation, and periprosthetic fractures.
