At the population level, accelerated aging can manifest itself as an early manifestation of age-associated pathology. Earlier, as an indicator of the order of manifestation of various diseases, we substantiated the age-specific incidence index (ASII), which is the ratio of the primary incidence rate among people over working age to the same indicator for the entire adult population. At the same time, it seems necessary to explain the mathematical relationship between median age and ASII. The purpose of the study: mathematically prove the applicability of the age-specific incidence index as an indirect indicator of the median age of patients. The materials were data from medical reporting forms on the appeal to the clinic with a newly diagnosed. The median age was estimated using the interval series calculation formula. The median age of patients calculated using the interval series calculation formula was 50.6 years. Having compiled and transformed the system of equations, the formula for calculating the median age using ASII was obtained. Calculation with the modified formula showed a similar median age. From a clinical perspective, the early development of age-related diseases is identical to premature aging. In the future, the mathematically proven ASII indicator will make it possible to develop a strategy for screening premature aging, and will also become one of the tools for the promising direction of gerontology - biohorology. Thus, the mathematical relationship between ASII and median age is demonstrated. The validity of the use of ASII as an indicator of the median age of the patient and, as a result, the age of manifestation of the disease at the population level was statistically proven.

Objectives: To report the results of an international patient-reported survey that adds to the growing body of evidence surrounding the role of surgery in the management of a subset of patients with non-hydrocephalic symptomatic pineal cyst.
Design: An international web-based survey of health outcomes in patients with nhSPC.
Subjects: All survey participants who self-reported a diagnosis of symptomatic pineal cyst without hydrocephalus after radiological imaging.

Background: Despite constant improvements, incontinence is one of the most relevant and quality-of-life-reducing side effects of radical prostatectomy (RP) and, in addition to patient-specific factors such as age, the experience of the surgeon/center and the surgical technique used play an important role.
Aims: To present current real-world data on short-term incontinence after RP from one of the largest German rehabilitation centers in 2022 and to compare it to the results from the same institution in 2016.
Methods And Results: Retrospective, unicentric, univariate analysis of data from 1394 men after RP in 2022 on admission and discharge from the rehabilitation clinic.

Objective: Early detection of surgical complications allows for timely therapy and proactive risk mitigation. Machine learning (ML) can be leveraged to identify and predict patient risks for postoperative complications. We developed and validated the effectiveness of predicting postoperative complications using a novel surgical Variational Autoencoder (surgVAE) that uncovers intrinsic patterns via cross-task and cross-cohort presentation learning.

Materials And Methods: Relying on the hospital information system (HIS) database, we retrospectively analysed the epidemiological characteristics of orthopaedic trauma inpatients in our hospital between 2013 and 2022, including patient demographic information, causes of injury, location of injury and hospitalization costs.
Results: The median age of the patients was 36 (26-47) years old; the age stratification of the patients was highest in the proportion of patients aged 40-50 years old (29.
