Leadership is a skill that all surgeons are confronted with in some capacity. Surprisingly in the US most training programs do not offer a structured program in leadership and there certainly are no metrics used to assess leadership competency. As a response to this, at The Society for Clinical Vascular Surgery (SCVS) a panel of leaders in vascular surgery both national and international, along with leadership experts discussed some of the salient issues in this space. This document is the result of this discussion and serves as a good framework for understanding needs and current shortcomings of leadership training.

Objective: To investigate the application value of arthroscopic channel modification in meniscal injury repair.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of 100 patients with meniscus injuries treated with knee arthroscopy from December 2022 to December 2023 and divided them into a control group and a modified group according to the application of "arthroscopic access modification technology". We compared the operation time, postoperative hospitalization time, VAS score, Lysholm knee function score, postoperative complications, and postoperative images of the patients in these two groups.

Background: National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines recommend sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) for patients with > 10% risk of positivity, consider SLNB with 5-10% risk, and foregoing with < 5% risk. The integrated 31-gene expression profile (i31-GEP) algorithm combines the 31-GEP with clinicopathologic variables, estimating SLN positivity risk.

Methods: The i31-GEP SLNB risk prediction accuracy was assessed in patients with T1-T2 tumors enrolled in the prospective, multicenter DECIDE study (n = 322).

Background: Rupture of extensor pollicis longus tendon (EPL) is a known complication following a distal radius fracture (DRF). Although the precise mechanisms behind these ruptures remain unclear, vascular impairment is thought to play a significant role. Additionally, the impact of an EPL rupture on microstructure of the tendon and muscle is not well understood, but such information could be important in guiding treatment strategies.

Associations between heavy metal exposure and vascular age: a large cross-sectional study.

J Transl Med

January 2025

Department of Cardiology, Tongji Hospital, School of Medicine, Tongji University, No. 389 Xincun Road, Shanghai, 200065, China.

Background: Heavy metal exposure is an emerging environmental risk factor linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) through its effects on vascular ageing. However, the relationship between heavy metal exposure and vascular age have not been fully elucidated.

Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed data from 3,772 participants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2005 to 2016.

Background: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) improve prognosis in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Nilotinib and ponatinib, second- and third-generation TKIs, respectively, have been reported to cause adverse vascular occlusive events such as myocardial infarction and peripheral arterial disease. However, little is known about the risk of cerebral infarction associated with severe cerebrovascular stenosis, which is a late complication of TKIs.
