Purpose Of Review: Quickly referenceable, streamlined, algorithmic approaches for advanced pain management are lacking for patients, trainees, non-pain specialists, and interventional specialists. This manuscript aims to address this gap by proposing a comprehensive, evidence-based algorithm for managing neuropathic, nociceptive, and cancer-associated pain. Such an algorithm is crucial for pain medicine education, offering a structured approach for patient care refractory to conservative management.

Purpose Of Review: This review aims to explore the evolving management strategies for stage III melanoma, focusing on the comparative effectiveness of traditional surgical approaches like complete lymph node dissection (CLND) versus modern adjuvant therapies. It also examines the latest evidence on the efficacy, risks, and complications of these strategies, emphasizing the role of shared decision-making between patients and clinicians.
Recent Findings: Recent clinical trials and meta-analyses, including the MSLT-II and DeCOG-SLT studies, have demonstrated that CLND may not significantly improve survival outcomes in melanoma patients with sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB)-positive status.

Importance: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common but likely underdiagnosed in urogynecology patients with nocturia, and OSA treatment has the potential to improve nocturia symptoms.
Objective: The aim of the study was to assess the effect of implementing a universal screening protocol for OSA in a urogynecology clinic on screening rates, OSA prevalence among patients with nocturia, and symptom improvement following treatment.
Study Design: This was an observational quality improvement study at a urogynecology clinic at a safety-net hospital.
