AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Background: Position change and interventions to increase lung capacity should be considered in mechanically ventilated patients. The most effective of these is the prone position.
Aim: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the effects of the prone position on respiratory parameters and outcomes and to guide nurses working in the intensive care unit.
Study Design And Methods: This systematic review-meta-analysis was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting in Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guideline. ScienceDirect, CINAHL, Academic Search Complete (EBSCOhost), MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane and PubMed databases were searched between January 2022 and January 2023 to access studies related to prone position in COVID-19 patients.
Results: Twenty-three studies were included. This meta-analysis shows that a prone position is feasible and can achieve improvements in gas exchange. Prone position increases PaO/FiO in the majority of patients followed with a diagnosis of COVID-19 and severe hypoxemic.
Conclusions: The study has shown that the prone position is effective in improving patients' respiratory function and oxygenation.
Relevance To Clinical Practice: The results presented in this article support the notion that the prone position can be an effective strategy in the clinical management of COVID-19 patients.

Effect of artificial intelligence-aided differentiation of adenomatous and non-adenomatous colorectal polyps at CT colonography on radiologists' therapy management.
Eur Radiol

Department of Radiology, LMU University Hospital, LMU Munich, Marchioninistraße 15, 81377, Munich, Germany.
Objectives: Adenomatous colorectal polyps require endoscopic resection, as opposed to non-adenomatous hyperplastic colorectal polyps. This study aims to evaluate the effect of artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted differentiation of adenomatous and non-adenomatous colorectal polyps at CT colonography on radiologists' therapy management.
Materials And Methods: Five board-certified radiologists evaluated CT colonography images with colorectal polyps of all sizes and morphologies retrospectively and decided whether the depicted polyps required endoscopic resection.

: Prone positioning is a standard intervention in managing patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and is known to improve oxygenation. However, its effects on other organs, particularly the kidneys, are less well understood. This study aimed to assess the association between prone positioning and the development of acute kidney injury (AKI), specifically in overweight and obese patients.

A comparative analysis has been carried out between three different dental materials suitable for the prostheses manufacturing. The analysis performed is based on the finite elements method (FEM) and was made to evaluate their performance under three different loading conditions. Three different materials were modeled with 3D CAD geometry, all of them suitable to be simulated by means of a linear elastic model.

Background: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a serious psychiatric disorder that occurs after an individual has witnessed or experienced a major traumatic event. Emotional contagion seems to play an important role in witnessing trauma, highlighting the importance of understanding the neurobiological consequences of psychological or emotional stress and its impact on the individual's mental health. Therefore, understanding the relationship between emotional contagion and PTSD susceptibility and the abnormal neurobiological and behavioral changes behind it could help find effective molecular treatment targets.

Department of Spine Surgery, Hospital for Special Surgery, New York, New York.
Case: A 73-year old man who underwent previous L2-S1 decompression presenting with new right radicular leg pain. Imaging suggests a large central disk herniation at L1-2 with possible intrathecal extension requiring surgical decompression. When positioned prone on a Jackson frame, neuromonitoring motor signals became diminished, and thus, the case was aborted.
