Study Objectives: Although heart rate variability (HRV), a marker of cardiac autonomic modulation (CAM), is known to predict cardiovascular morbidity, the circadian timing of sleep (CTS) is also involved in autonomic modulation. We examined whether circadian misalignment is associated with blunted HRV in adolescents as a function of entrainment to school or on-breaks.
Methods: We evaluated 360 subjects from the Penn State Child Cohort (median 16y) who had at least 3-night at-home actigraphy (ACT), in-lab 9-h polysomnography (PSG) and 24-h Holter-monitoring heart rate variability (HRV) data.

Background: Revision total elbow arthroplasty (rTEA) remains a technically challenging procedure with potential for substantial morbidity. Cases involving excessively long cement mantles, removal of well-fixed implants or infected revisions requiring complete cement removal introduce additional technical challenges. Our purpose was to describe the outcomes, results, and complications associated with the use of cortical windows in rTEA.

Bifrontal decompressive craniectomy (DC), which was once a popular technique for treating midline mass lesions, has seen a notable decline in its therapeutic use within modern neurosurgery. Despite its diminished clinical use, the procedure offers considerable value as an educational tool for surgical training. This study used a Thiel-embalmed cadaver to demonstrate the bifrontal DC procedure, including a Souttar incision, strategic (MacCarty, zygomatic, and apical) keyhole/burr hole placement, superior sagittal sinus suturing, left frontal lobe decortication, and microscopic visualization of the anterior cranial fossa.
