Objective: The supraglottic airway device is a viable alternative to tracheal intubation for elective surgery. To conduct a comparative analysis of the advantages and disadvantages associated with use of the Baska mask and I-gel across various dimensions.

Design: A comprehensive search was conducted across PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and other relevant databases to identify randomised controlled trials (RCTs) involving patients who used the Baska mask and I-gel.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the benefits of robot-assisted technology in the internal fixation of calcaneal fractures compared to traditional surgical methods, emphasizing the impact of advancements in digital medicine on surgery.
  • A systematic review of literature was conducted, analyzing studies that documented clinical outcomes such as complications, angles (Gissane and Böhler), and patient scores (AOFAS) after surgery.
  • Results showed robot-assisted surgery had advantages in certain areas like intraoperative fluoroscopy and short-term outcomes, but some measures didn't demonstrate significant improvement over traditional methods, indicating a need for more high-quality research.

Article Synopsis
  • A new surgical method uses robots to help fix certain types of bone fractures, but there aren't many studies that compare it to the older methods.
  • Researchers looked at several studies to see if robot-assisted surgery has any benefits, like less operation time and less blood loss.
  • Although the robot method seems better for short-term results, both methods work well long-term, so more good quality studies are needed to be sure which is best.

Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration and its inflammatory microenvironment can result in discogenic pain, which has been shown to stem from the nucleus pulposus (NP). Increasing evidence suggests that mitochondrial related genes are strictly connected to cell functionality and, importantly, it can regulate cell immune activity in response to damaged associated signals. Therefore, identification of mitochondria related genes might offer new diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets for IVD degeneration.
