Pancreatic cancer detection with dual-energy CT: diagnostic performance of 40 keV and 70 keV virtual monoenergetic images.
Radiol Med
May 2024
Department of Radiology, Gifu University, 1-1 Yanagido, Gifu, 501-1194, Japan.
Purpose: To compare the diagnostic performance of 40 keV and 70 keV virtual monoenergetic images (VMIs) generated from dual-energy CT in the detection of pancreatic cancer.
Methods: This retrospective study included patients who underwent pancreatic protocol dual-energy CT from January 2019 to August 2022. Four radiologists (1-11 years of experience), who were blinded to the final diagnosis, independently and randomly interpreted 40 keV and 70 keV VMIs and graded the presence or absence of pancreatic cancer.
Comparison of the retear rate 2years after ACL reconstruction with the Tape Locking Screw short graft system and the STG technique: A case control study with propensity score matching.

Clinique du Sport Paris V, 36, boulevard Saint-Marcel, 75005 Paris, France.
Article Synopsis
- - The study compared the effectiveness of two ACL reconstruction techniques: the 4-strand semitendinosus graft (ST4-TLS) and the semitendinosus-gracilis (STG) graft regarding retear rates and recovery outcomes over two years.
- - Results showed no significant difference in the retear rates between the two methods (6.7% for ST4-TLS vs. 5.4% for STG), indicating similar effectiveness in preventing ligament re-injury.
- - However, the STG group demonstrated better overall symptom and activity scores at one and two years post-surgery, suggesting some advantages in recovery and functionality with the STG technique.
Ferric derisomaltose and tranexamic acid, combined or alone, for reducing blood transfusion in patients with hip fracture (the HiFIT trial): a multicentre, 2 × 2 factorial, randomised, double-blind, controlled trial.

Département Anesthésie-Réanimation, Pôle Anesthésie Samu Urgences Réanimation, Centre Hospitalier Universitaire d'Angers, Angers, France.
Background: Anaemia and blood transfusion are associated with poor outcomes after hip fracture. We evaluated the efficacy of intravenous iron and tranexamic acid in reducing blood transfusions after hip fracture surgery.
Methods: In this double-blind, randomised, 2 × 2 factorial trial, we recruited adults hospitalised for hip fractures in 12 medical centres in France who had preoperative haemoglobin concentrations between 9·5 and 13·0 g/dL.
Periarticular multimodal analgesia in decreasing perioperative pain in tibial plateau fractures: A double blind randomized controlled pilot study.
Injury
December 2022
University of Utah, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Salt Lake City, UT, USA.
Introduction: The use of periarticular multimodal analgesia injections is increasing and has become commonplace in some surgeries. However, there is no data on the effectiveness of local periarticular multimodal analgesia for tibial plateau fractures. We hypothesized that closed tibial plateau fracture patients receiving the local multimodal analgesic medications would experience a decrease in VAS pain scores.

Department of Health Sciences, Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC), Physical Therapy, Araranguá, Brazil.
Background: Although lumbar mobilization (LM) and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) are used to increase flexibility in clinical practice, remains unclear which technic is the most effective. This study aims to verify and compare the immediate effect of unilateral LM and hold-relax PNF on hamstring flexibility.
Method: A randomized, blinded, crossover trial carried out in university research laboratory.
