Association between meningioma consistency and surgical outcomes.
J Neurosurg
January 2025
Departments of1Neurological Surgery.
Objective: Tumor consistency, or fibrosity, affects the ability to optimally resect meningiomas, especially with recent trends evolving toward minimally invasive approaches. The authors' team previously validated a practical 5-point scale for intraoperative grading of meningioma consistency. The impact of meningioma consistency on surgical management and outcomes, however, has yet to be explored.

J Neurosurg Spine
January 2025
15Department of Neurological Surgery, University of California, San Francisco, California.
Objective: The goal of this study was to compare the impact of using a lower thoracic (LT) versus upper lumbar (UL) level as the upper instrumented vertebra (UIV) on clinical and radiographic outcomes following minimally invasive surgery for adult spinal deformity.
Methods: A multicenter retrospective study design was used. Inclusion criteria were age ≥ 18 years, and one of the following: coronal Cobb angle > 20°, sagittal vertical axis > 50 mm, pelvic tilt > 20°, pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis mismatch > 10°.
The Association of Modified 5-Item Frailty Index on Perioperative Cochlear Implant Speech Perception.

Department of Surgery, Section of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, University of Chicago Medicine, Chicago, Illinois.
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the potential association of perioperative hearing outcomes with frailty by Modified 5-Item Frailty Index (mFI-5).
Design: Retrospective cross-sectional study.
Setting: Single-institutional study conducted at a tertiary care hospital between January 2018 and January 2022.
Association between preoperative serum albumin levels and length of stay in elderly patients with hip fractures: A nonlinear relationship.
Medicine (Baltimore)

Teaching Office, Second People's Hospital of Shenzhen (First Affiliated Hospital of Shenzhen University), Shenzhen City, China.
Previous studies have provided relatively limited evidence in examining the impact of preoperative serum albumin levels on the length of hospital stay (LOS) in patients with hip fractures. This study aimed to elucidate the association between preoperative serum albumin levels and LOS in elderly patients with hip fractures. This retrospective cohort study included 1444 elderly patients undergoing surgical treatment for hip fractures at the Second People's Hospital of Shenzhen from January 2012 to December 2021.

Department of the Hepatobiliary Pancreatic and Transplant Surgery, Mie University Graduate School of Medicine, Tsu, Mie, Japan.
The optimal surgical indication for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) remains highly contentious. We aimed to determine the preoperative predictive factors of malignancy and independent prognostic factors in patients with IPMN who underwent curative-intent resection. In this study, 104 patients with a pathological diagnosis of IPMN who underwent curative-intent resection were included.
