Turk J Emerg Med
January 2025
Department of Emergency Medicine, Ege University Faculty of Medicine, Izmir, Türkiye.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the factors associated with non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) failure in acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema (ACPE) diagnosed in the emergency department.
Methods: This study was prospectively conducted at the Ege University Faculty of Medicine ED between February 19, 2021 and December 01, 2021. Patients who received NIMV with ACPE were included.
Management of Unruptured Infectious Intracranial Aneurysms in Infective Endocarditis: A Case Report and Literature Review.

December 2024
Department of Neurosurgery, International University of Health and Welfare Narita Hospital, Narita, JPN.
Infectious intracranial aneurysms (IIAs) are rare lesions with fragile arterial walls located within the aneurysms, carrying a high risk of rupture. Standard management often involves antibiotic therapy and parent artery occlusion; however, the latter carries a significant risk of cerebral infarction. This report presents a case of an unruptured IIA following cerebral infarction, successfully treated with coil embolization while preserving the parent artery.

December 2025
Graduate Institute of Injury Prevention and Control, Taipei Medical University, Taipei, Taiwan, ROC.
Background: The reverse shock index multiplied by simplified motor score (rSI-sMS) is a novel and rapid measure for assessing injury severity in patients with trauma in prehospital settings; however, its discriminant ability requires further validation.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted from trauma database of Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital to compare the accuracy of the rSI-sMS with that of the shock index, modified shock index, reverse shock index multiplied by the Glasgow Coma Scale (rSI-GCS), and the reverse shock index multiplied by GCS motor subscale (rSI-GCSM) for discriminating in-hospital mortality, intensive care unit (ICU) admissions, prolonged ICU stays ≥14 days, and prolonged hospital stays ≥30 days in patients with trauma.
Results: A total of 11,760 patients from the trauma database were included.
Clinical risk factors for mortality in low severity acute epidural hematoma.
Clin Neurol Neurosurg
January 2025
University of Illinois College of Medicine at Chicago, Chicago, IL 60612, USA; Department of Neurosurgery, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL 60612, USA. Electronic address:
Background: Epidural hematomas (EDH) pose life-threatening risks with considerable morbidity and mortality if left untreated. The prognosis for patients with low-severity acute EDH managed conservatively is variable, with limited understanding of risk factors. This study aims to identify clinical risk factors for mortality in low-severity acute epidural hematoma patients managed conservatively, helping clinicians recognize cases where deviation from conservative management may be necessary.
