Introduction: This study aims to measure surgeon physiologic stress and energy expenditure during adult spine surgery. Energy expenditures were assessed based on patient BMI, lead use, instrumentation/intraoperative navigation, primary/revision surgeries, tranexamic acid (TXA) use, and anatomic region involved.

Methods: The senior author wore a heart rate (HR) monitor and triaxial accelerometer during spinal surgeries, providing assessments of mean HR, maximum HR, calories consumed/minute, and calories as measured by a Polar device (P calories) and Fitbit device (F calories).

Results: One hundred sixty-two surgeries were included. Median patient age was 62 years. Median BMI was 29.02. Significant differences existed for BMI and estimated blood loss (P < 0.05). TXA use had a significant effect on case time, estimated blood loss, P calories, F calories, and Kcal/min (P < 0.05). Instrumentation use was significant for all variables (P < 0.05), except for mean HR and Kcal/min (P > 0.05). Lead use did not have a significant effect on max HR, P calories, F calories, and Kcal/min (P > 0.05). Navigation use was associated with significant differences for every variable tested (P ≤ 0.05). Differences were observed between primary and revision surgeries for case time, estimated blood loss, and F calories (P < 0.05).

Conclusions: In spinal surgery, the use of navigation, instrumentation use, TXA use, and performing revision surgeries were associated with increased energy expenditure and can potentially increase surgeon fatigue.

Background: Mitochondria-driven oxidative/redox stress and inflammation play a major role in chronic kidney disease (CKD) pathophysiology. Compounds targeting mitochondrial metabolism may improve mitochondrial function, inflammation, and redox stress; however, there is limited evidence of their efficacy in CKD.

Methods: We conducted a pilot randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial comparing the effects of 1200 mg/day of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) or 1000 mg/day of nicotinamide riboside (NR) supplementation to placebo in 25 people with moderate-to-severe CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] <60mL/min/1.

Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a leading cause of premature morbidity and mortality globally and affects more than 100 million people in the world's most populous country, India. Nutrition is a critical and evidence-based component of effective blood glucose control and most dietary advice emphasizes carbohydrate and calorie reduction. Emerging global evidence demonstrates marked interindividual differences in postprandial glucose response (PPGR) although no such data exists in India and previous studies have primarily evaluated PPGR variation in individuals without diabetes.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a deep-learning model for noninvasive anemia detection, hemoglobin (Hb) level estimation, and identification of anemia-related retinal features using fundus images.

Methods: The dataset included 2265 participants aged 40 years and above from a population-based study in South India. The dataset included ocular and systemic clinical parameters, dilated retinal fundus images, and hematological data such as complete blood counts and Hb concentration levels.

Importance: Understanding the interplay between diabetes risk factors and diabetes development is important to develop individual, practice, and population-level prevention strategies.

Objective: To evaluate the progression from normal and impaired fasting glucose levels to diabetes among adults.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This retrospective community-based cohort study used data from the Rochester Epidemiology Project, in Olmsted County, Minnesota, on 44 992 individuals with at least 2 fasting plasma glucose (FPG) measurements from January 1, 2005, to December 31, 2017.

About one out of two diabetic patients develop diabetic neuropathy (DN), of these 20% experience neuropathic pain (NP) leading to individual, social, and health-economic burden. Risk factors for NP are largely unknown; however, premature aging was recently associated with several chronic pain disorders. DNA methylation-based biological age (DNAm) is associated with disease risk, morbidity, and mortality in different clinical settings.
