Purpose: This systematic review aimed to assess the impact of prior or concurrent cervical spine pathology on clinical outcomes following shoulder surgery.
Methods: A systematic literature search was performed of the MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane databases. The inclusion criteria were English-language studies with Level IV evidence or greater in which shoulder outcomes data were stratified according to whether patients previously had a documented cervical spine procedure or pathology.

Study Objective: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (eCPR) is a rescue therapy for selected patients when conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) fails. Current evidence suggests that the success of eCPR depends on well-structured in- and out-of-hospital protocols. This article describes the Vienna eCPR program, and the interventions implemented to improve clinical processes and patient outcomes.

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) using electrical stimulation of neuronal tissue in the basal forebrain to enhance release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine is under consideration to improve executive function in patients with dementia. While some small studies indicate a positive response in the clinical setting, the relationship between DBS and acetylcholine pharmacokinetics is incompletely understood. We examined the cortical acetylcholine response to different stimulation parameters of the basal forebrain.

Background: Risk stratification for sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with nonischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM) remains challenging.
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the impact of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) on SCD in NICM patients.
Methods: Our study cohort included 173 consecutive patients (age 53 ± 14 years, 73% men) scheduled for primary prevention implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) implantation who underwent preimplant cardiovascular magnetic resonance.
