The assessment of oxidative stress in human semen: chaos and confusion in pursuit of diagnostic precision.
Reprod Biomed Online
October 2024
CellOxess Biotechnology, Research and Development, Ewing, NJ, USA.
The importance of oxidative stress in the aetiology of male infertility has occasioned numerous clinical trials designed to assess the potential of antioxidants for treating this condition. These trials have not returned definitive results, probably because they have never selected participants on the basis of oxidative stress. Clearly, if a moderate to severe state of oxidative stress does not exist in semen, antioxidants can hardly be expected to improve fertility.

Arthroscopy
November 2024
Twin Cities Orthopedics, Edina, Minnesota, U.S.A.
Article Synopsis
- The posterolateral corner (PLC) of the knee was historically difficult to understand and treat, leading to high failure rates with non-anatomic reconstruction methods known as "fibular slings".
- Newer anatomic reconstruction techniques aim to restore all three main PLC stabilizers, with two primary approaches: tibiofibular-based (LaPrade and Engebretsen) and fibular-based (Levy/Marx, Arciero).
- The tibiofibular approach is considered superior as it better mimics the knee's natural structure and function, while certain conditions warrant the use of tibial tunnels instead of fibular-based reconstructions.
Recognition of Traumatic Brain Injury as a Chronic Condition: A Commentary.
J Neurotrauma
December 2024
Department of Medicine, Indiana School of Medicine and Regenstrief Institute, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA.
Article Synopsis
- Many clinicians once thought that the effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI) remain unchanged after initial recovery, but new studies suggest that the long-term effects can actually evolve over time.
- Recognizing TBI as a chronic condition could lead to better health management, including education on self-care and proactive healthcare that addresses related health issues.
- Increased awareness and resources dedicated to TBI might improve the quality of life for individuals with brain injuries, encouraging healthier lifestyles and better healthcare practices.
Shifting concepts of autoregulation: Commentary to 'Static autoregulation in humans'.
J Cereb Blood Flow Metab
November 2024
Radboud University Medical Center, Department of Geriatrics Nijmegen, the Netherlands.
Advances in imaging techniques have transformed our understanding of cerebral autoregulation. Older imaging techniques provided measurements of cerebral blood flow (CBF) that reflected the average CBF over a window of 10-20 minutes. A key finding, dating back to 1959, was that CBF remained more or less stable over a remarkably wide range of changes in blood pressure.

- Aggregate statistics help compare mortality rates in U.S. combat operations, but individual-level data on factors affecting casualty mortality has been hard to gather historically.* -
- The DoD Trauma Registry provides valuable individual-level data from conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq, allowing for detailed analyses of factors influencing combat casualty outcomes.* -
- To better understand combat fatalities and improve survival rates, the commentary suggests integrating data from the Trauma Mortality Review with traditional aggregate statistics, focusing on prevention strategies for injuries.*
