Objective: To present a study protocol to compare glucose and reflexology in pain relief in neonate intensive care during arterial punctures.
Methods: A randomized, controlled, double-blind clinical trial protocol will be carried out at a teaching hospital maternity, with30 newborns admitted to neonate intensive care who are to undergo blood collection by arterial puncture. They will be randomly assigned to a control group (25% glucose) or an intervention group (foot reflexology). The primary outcome will be neonate pain scores during and after arterial puncture. Secondary outcomes will be crying time and variation in neonates' vital signs during and after the arterial puncture procedure. Registration number RBR-639bff.
Discussion: The results of this trial will provide new insights into the most appropriate intervention for the relief of neonate pain during painful procedures.

Emergency bleeding presents significant challenges such as high blood flow and rapid hemorrhaging. However, many existing hemostatic bandages face limitations, including the uncontrolled release of hemostatic agents, insufficient mechanical strength, poor adhesion, and complex manufacturing processes. To address these limitations, we developed a multifunctional hydrogel bandage for emergency hemostasis using a one-pot synthesis method.

To improve outcomes after Impella-supported HR-PCI, institutional Impella programs have been developed.
Objectives: We evaluated the association between the standardized periprocedural management algorithm and outcomes of patients undergoing HR-PCI in the national IMPELLA-PL Registry.

Objectives: In recent years, with the advancement of sublobar resection, A safe, painless method for locating peripheral pulmonary nodules is required. Previously, an alternative method of arterial watershed localization was been introduced to remedy the shortcomings of preoperative CT-guided localization or other methods for locating pulmonary nodules, but its technical limitations were discovered during clinical application. Therefore, we innovated a technique to localize non-subpleural nodules using basin analysis of the target vein and validated its feasibility and safety.

Purpose: The purpose of this case report is to present an anatomical variation of the radial artery observed in anatomical practice and to discuss its clinical significance.
Methods: During the dissection of the right upper limb of a Chinese adult male, a high-position variation of the right radial artery with the absence of the radial recurrent artery was found.
Results: The variant branch of the right radial artery originates from the brachial artery and arises medially in the upper one-third of the arm.

Introduction: ProGlide is a suture-mediated vascular closure device (VCD) indicated for retrograde access closure at the common femoral artery (CFA). However, its off-label use for antegrade and/or superficial femoral artery (SFA) access has become common in many practices. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of ProGlide for femoral artery access closure in patients undergoing antegrade infrainguinal endovascular procedures.
