Background: The continuing increase in care, needs and costs in cardiology with the advances in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) techniques represent the ideal scenario for considering same-day discharge (SDD) PCI program.
Aim: The primary endpoints were to examine feasibility and safety of SDD-PCI.
Methods: We conducted a comparative observational study of a prospective cohort (April 2017 to September 2017) where patients benefited from SDD-PCI with a retrospective cohort (October 2016 to March 2017) where patients were conventionally managed. We established pre-procedural eligibility criteria and per and post-procedural exclusion criteria to estimate feasibility of SDD-PCI. Safety was assessed at 24 hours and 30 days comparatively in both groups.
Results: In the one-year study period, 709 PCI were performed. The eligibility for SDD-PCI was 17.2% (122 patients) and feasibility was 14.7% (104 patients). Ultimately, 50 out of 370 patients in the prospective cohort (SDD-group) and 54 out of 339 patients in the retrospective cohort (control-group) had or could have benefited from SDD-PCI. The transradial access was the most used (98.1%). 59.7% of treated lesions were B2 or C type, 53.8% interested the left anterior descending artery and 29.8% were bifurcations. In both groups, no complications were observed at 24 hours. At 30 days, one single non-fatal myocardial infarction related to subacute stent thrombosis occurred in the SDD-group and was attributed to antiplatelet therapy interruption.
Conclusion: SDD-PCI is feasible and safe on the condition of strict stratification criteria of patients before judging their discharge the same day after PCI.

The safety and feasibility of transcranial direct current stimulation and exercise therapy for the treatment of cervicogenic headaches: A randomized pilot trial.
Headache

Department of Clinical Neurosciences, Cumming School of Medicine, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Objective: Our primary objective was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of transcranial direct current stimulation combined with exercise therapy for the treatment of cervicogenic headache. Our exploratory objectives compared symptoms of headache, mood, pain, and quality of life between active and sham transcranial direct stimulation combined with exercise therapy.
Background: Cervicogenic headache arises from injury to the cervical spine or degenerative diseases impacting cervical spine structure resulting in pain, reduced quality of life, and impaired function.
Granulocyte and Monocyte Adsorption Therapy in Patients With Sepsis: A Feasibility Study.
Artif Organs

Laboratory for Immune Response and Regulatory Medicine, Fujita Health University School of Medicine, Toyoake, Japan.
Background: The pathogenesis of sepsis is thought to be linked to a dysregulated immune response, particularly that involving neutrophils. We have developed a granulocyte adsorption column as a "decoy organ," which relocates the massive inflammation in organs in the body to a blood purification column. This study was conducted to assess the safety and experimental effectiveness of granulocyte monocyte adsorption apheresis-direct hemoperfusion (G1-DHP) in the treatment of patients with sepsis, using a prospective, multicenter design.

Purpose: Evaluate the feasibility and safety of a robotic electrode insertion in pediatric cochlear implantation and compare the results with manually inserted electrodes in the same subject.
Methods: Retrospective case series review of four children who underwent bilateral cochlear implantation with the same array: on one side, the array was inserted using the robot, while on the other side the array was inserted manually. Behavioural and electrophysiological measures were compared.

Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 54 NICU patients who underwent vPDT at Tai'an Central Hospital from September 2022 to September 2023. The cohort included 36 men and 18 women aged 36-90 years (mean age 62.
Role of stereotactic radiosurgery for intracranial epidermoid tumors: a systematic review to assess its safety, efficacy, and complication profile.
J Neurooncol

University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA, USA.
Background: Even a gross total resection of a benign epidermoid tumor (ET) carries a high risk of recurrence. The management strategy mostly involves redo surgical excision but at a significant cost of morbidity and mortality. The role of adjuvant radiation therapies in this scenario is still undefined.
