Objective: While the association of a syrinx with a tethered spinal cord in the context of VACTERL (vertebral defects [V], imperforate anus or anal atresia [A], cardiac malformations [C], tracheoesophageal defects [T] with or without esophageal atresia [E], renal anomalies [R], and limb defects [L]) association is known, the incidence of idiopathic syrinxes among these patients has not previously been reported. The authors aimed to characterize the incidence of syrinxes and the pattern of congenital anomalies in pediatric patients with VACTERL association, with a specific focus on the presence of idiopathic syrinxes in this population.
Methods: An institutional database was retrospectively queried for all pediatric patients with VACTERL association.
Differences in Plasma BDNF Levels Between Chronic Primary Musculoskeletal Pain, Fibromyalgia Syndrome, and Asymptomatic Subjects: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Cognitive Neuroscience, Pain and Rehabilitation Research Group (NECODOR), Faculty of Health Sciences, Rey Juan Carlos University, Alcorcón, Spain.
This cross-sectional study compared plasma brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels among chronic primary musculoskeletal pain patients, chronic widespread pain patients, and asymptomatic controls. The study included 126 participants aged 18-65, divided into three groups of 42 each. Pain intensity was assessed using a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), and plasma BDNF levels were measured via ELISA.

Department of Restorative Dentistry, Federal University of Ceará, Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil.
Background: Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is the main chronic pain that affects the face, and it is associated with dietary changes due to pain and dysfunction. However, there is a scarcity of studies on its impact on nutrition and vice versa.
Objectives: To assess and compare the intake of energy and nutrients among chronic TMD myalgia and asymptomatic women and to evaluate data according to dietary reference intakes (DRI) and the World Health Organization (WHO) values.
Defining Thresholds for Meaningful Health Status Changes Following Transfemoral Carotid Artery Stenting.
Catheter Cardiovasc Interv
January 2025
Department of Internal Medicine, Vascular Medicine Outcomes Program (VAMOS), Section of Cardiovascular Medicine, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut, USA.
Background: Evaluating health status changes following transfemoral carotid artery stenting (TF-CAS) is essential for assessing procedural success, but meaningful clinical changes are unknown. We aimed to determine minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) and quantify health status improvement or worsening rates after TF-CAS using the Stenting and Angioplasty with Protection in Patients at High Risk for Endarterectomy (SAPPHIRE) registry data.
Methods: The SAPPHIRE registry included patients undergoing TF-CAS from 2010 to 2014 for both symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid stenosis.
Development of Bayesian segmented Poisson regression model to forecast COVID-19 dynamics based on wastewater data: a case study in Nanning City, China.

Department of Infectious Diseases, Nanning Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Nanning, 530023, China.
Introduction: COVID-19 has caused tremendous hardships and challenges around the globe. Due to the prevalence of asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic carriers, relying solely on disease testing to screen for infections is not entirely reliable, which may affect the accuracy of predictions about the pandemic trends. This study is dedicated to developing a predictive model aimed at estimating of the dynamics of COVID-19 at an early stage based on wastewater data, to assist in establishing an effective early warning system for disease control.
