The lateral margin of the sacrospinalis muscle was visible on 24 of 100 supine abdominal radiographs. Its course is oblique, the reverse of that of the psoas. Findings on the plain radiograph and CT are correlated.

Aim: The current study aims to delineate subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), visceral adipose tissue (VAT), the sacrospinalis muscle, and all abdominal musculature at the L3-L5 vertebral level from non-contrast computed tomography (CT) imagery using deep learning algorithms. Subsequently, radiomic features are collected from these segmented images and subjected to medical interpretation.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective analysis includes a cohort of 315 patients diagnosed with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) who had undergone comprehensive whole-abdomen CT scans.

Far lateral disc herniations account for between 7% and 12% of all disk herniations and occur predominantly at L3/4 and L4/5.1,2 They can cause severe radicular pain due to dorsal root ganglion involvement and are exacerbated by lateral bending to the side of the lesion. Back pain is less of a feature with this pathology.

Aim: This study is aimed at investigating the effect of acupuncture along meridians on pain degree and treatment of acute lumbar sprain.
Methods: A total of 96 patients with acute lumbar sprain from May 2019 to March 2021 in our hospital were selected and divided into the study and control groups. The patients in the control group were administered conventional western medicine and massage therapy, while the study group underwent acupuncture along meridians based on the control group.
The potential of microdialysis to estimate rifampicin concentrations in the lung of guinea pigs.

Optimised pre-clinical models are required for TB drug development to better predict the pharmacokinetics of anti-tuberculosis (anti-TB) drugs to shorten the time taken for novel drugs and combinations to be approved for clinical trial. Microdialysis can be used to measure unbound drug concentrations in awake freely moving animals in order to describe the pharmacokinetics of drugs in the organs as a continuous sampling technique. The aim of this work was to develop and optimise the microdialysis methodology in guinea pigs to better understand the pharmacokinetics of rifampicin in the lung.

Introduction: Evidence suggests that the rate of cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) infections is increasing more rapidly than the rates of CIED implantation and is associated with considerable mortality, morbidity and health economic impact. Antimicrobial surface treatments are being developed for CIEDs to reduce the risk of postimplantation infection within the subcutaneous implant pocket.
Methods And Analysis: The feasibility of processing cardiac pacemakers with the Agluna antimicrobial silver ion surface technology and in vivo biocompatibility were evaluated.
