AI Article Synopsis

  • Neuroendoscopy is an effective, minimally invasive technique for treating Chronic Subdural Hematoma (CSH), and the study aims to improve preoperative planning for this procedure.
  • CT imaging was utilized in a study involving forty-two patients to accurately locate hematomas and determine the best surgical approach, resulting in efficient surgeries with an average operation time of around one hour and a hematoma clearance rate of about 95%.
  • The study concludes that this method of using CT scans for planning significantly enhances surgical outcomes for CSH patients by allowing precise positioning and smaller surgical openings.

Article Abstract

Background: Neuroendoscopy is a very useful technique to Chronic Subdural Hematoma (CSH). But how to achieve the goal of treatment more minimally invasive?

Aim: To develop a simple, fast and accurate preoperative planning method in our way for endoscopic surgery of patients with CSH.

Methods: From June 2018 to May 2020, forty-two patients with CSH, admitted to our hospital, were performed endoscopic minimally invasive surgery; computed tomography (CT) imaging was employed to locate the intracerebral hematoma and select the appropriate endoscopic approach before the endoscopic surgery. The clinical data and treatment efficacy were analyzed.

Results: According to the learning of CT scanning images, the surgeon can accurately design the best minimally invasive neuroendoscopic surgical approach and realize the precise positioning and design of the drilling site of the skull and the size of the bone window, so as to provide the most effective operation space with the smallest bone window. In this group, the average operation time was only about 1 h, and the clearance rate of hematoma was about 95%.

Conclusion: Patients with CSH can achieve good therapeutic effect by using our way to positioning and design to assist the operation of CSH according to CT scan and image, and our way is very useful and necessary.

Transmissibility is used to assess dynamic responses of the occupant-seat system, and most studies have exclusively assessed the transmissibility from the floor to the cushion or the backrest surface with the human body. In this investigation, the vertical vibration transmitted from the floor to six specific locations both on the seat surface and the frame when the seat was fixed on three positions on the track was examined utilizing an SAE J826 manikin and 12 male adults (0.25 to 20 Hz) for a duration of 120 seconds at three vibration amplitudes.

Quinoline is a highly privileged scaffold with significant pharmacological potential. Introducing a carbonyl group into the quinoline ring generates a quinolone ring, which exhibits promising biological properties. Incorporating a carboxamide linkage at different positions within the quinoline and quinolone frameworks has proven an effective strategy for enhancing pharmacological properties, particularly anticancer potency.

Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, Faculty of Health Sciences, European University of Lefke, Mersin, Türkiye.

Background: Low back pain (LBP) accompanied by sciatica is a widespread musculoskeletal issue with multifactorial etiology, impacting individuals across various demographics. Conservative treatments, notably physiotherapy, are key in managing LBP with sciatica, with neural mobilization techniques emerging as beneficial adjuncts.

Aim: This research aims to assess the effectiveness of utilizing the sciatic slider technique (SST) in both supine and slump positions, compared to conventional physiotherapy alone, in alleviating pain severity, improving lumbar flexibility, lumbar lordosis, lower limb muscle strength, and functional ability in patients with LBP associated with sciatica.

To accurately model the specific detection characteristics of spectral sensors based on linear variable filters (LVFs) within an optical design tool, it is essential to consider crucial position-variable spectral properties, such as peak transmittance, central wavelength, half width, or slope steepness. In this context, we propose a straightforward approach, integrating a dynamic link library (DLL) containing all position-dependent spectral properties of the LVF into a commercial optical design software. Exemplary investigations are conducted for an LVF with a detection range of 450-850 nm.
