Introduction: Several open access platforms are currently available to help facilitate this online learning; however, whether the platforms are generalized or specialized, peers do not evaluate videos, and they may teach unverified techniques. The purpose of this study was to compare the quality of each website's content using a specific measurement, analyzing the pedagogical quality of Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) arthroscopic videos on YouTube versus VuMedi.

Methods: A prospective study analyzing 20 arthroscopy videos of arthroscopic FAI surgery on two hosting platforms online: 10 on the generalist platform YouTube and 10 on a specialized platform VuMedi.

Results: The average length of the YouTube videos was 503 ± 355.02 s (198-1430). The average number of views for the YouTube videos was 56,114.6 ± 116,832.61 (1149-383,694). The average length of the VuMedi videos was 797.5 ± 522.5 s (185-1927). The average number of views for the VuMedi video was 10,404.7 ± 10,071.2 (1625-37,115) The average LAP-VEGaS scores of the YouTube and VuMedi videos were 8.2 ± 3.47 (3-15) and 11.95 ± 2.64 (6-15), respectively (p < 0.0005).

Discussion: The use of a specialized website makes it possible to obtain educational videos of better quality. Health professionals need to be aware of this when using it as a resource for learning. Therefore, it should be in the interest of educational institutions to participate in the sharing of videos on this platform or to create their own platform to improve the quality of the information provided and the overall pedagogical experience.

Level Of Evidence: II.

Flow environment affects nutrient transport in soft plant roots.

Soft Matter

January 2025

Microfluidics and Microscale Transport Processes Laboratory, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, Guwahati-781039, Assam, India.

This work estimates Michaelis-Menten kinetics parameters for nutrient transport under varying flow rates in the soft roots of Indian mustard () using a plant fluidic device. To find the metallic components within the roots, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) analysis was performed. The flow rate-dependent metabolic changes were examined using Raman spectral analysis.

Stable Soil Biota Network Enhances Soil Multifunctionality in Agroecosystems.

Glob Chang Biol

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Agro-Ecological Processes in Subtropical Region, Institute of Subtropical Agriculture, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Changsha, China.

Unraveling how agricultural management practices affect soil biota network complexity and stability and how these changes relate to soil processes and functions is critical for the development of sustainable agriculture. However, our understanding of these knowledge still remains unclear. Here, we explored the effects of soil management intensity on soil biota network complexity, stability, and soil multifunctionality, as well as the relationships among these factors.

Aim: The aim of the study is to determine sac volume based on radiological examinations in patients undergoing surgery for myelomeningocele (MMC) and to investigate the relationship of sac volume with hydrocephalus and Chiari malformation type 2 (CM) with a view to determining the optimum length of follow-up and recommend a treatment plan.

Material And Methods: The present study involved the retrospective review of radiologic examinations and medical files of 81 patients who underwent surgery for myelomeningocele between 2015 and 2022 in the neurosurgery clinic of Ankara Training and Research Hospital. Then, MMC sac volumes were measured and the statistical relationship of these measurements with the Evans Index, progressive enlargement of the ventricles after sac repair and CM was investigated.

Three-dimensional (3D) LiDAR is crucial for the autonomous navigation of orchard mobile robots, offering comprehensive and accurate environmental perception. However, the increased richness of information provided by 3D LiDAR also leads to a higher computational burden for point cloud data processing, posing challenges to real-time navigation. To address these issues, this paper proposes a 3D point cloud optimization method based on the octree data structure for autonomous navigation of orchard mobile robots.
