Importance: Classification of persons with long COVID (LC) or post-COVID-19 condition must encompass the complexity and heterogeneity of the condition. Iterative refinement of the classification index for research is needed to incorporate newly available data as the field rapidly evolves.
Objective: To update the 2023 research index for adults with LC using additional participant data from the Researching COVID to Enhance Recovery (RECOVER-Adult) study and an expanded symptom list based on input from patient communities.

Objective: Despite innovations in minimally invasive (MI) techniques for sacroiliac joint fusion (SIJF), trends in utilization and associated costs remain unclear. In this study, we assessed these trends and costs in a database of privately insured patients.

Background: Recent literature suggests circadian rhythm influences cerebral perfusion parameters in adults experiencing an acute large vessel occlusion, but this has never been investigated in the pediatric and young adult populations.
Methods: We queried the United States RAPID Insights database (10/05/2018-09/29/2023) for unique patients between 2 and 25 years with computed tomography perfusion (CTP). Included scans had a minimum ischemic core volume (rCBF <30 %) of >0 cc and a Tmax volume of >0 cc.

The treatment of multiple myeloma has changed dramatically in recent years, with huge strides forward made in the field. Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy targeting the B cell maturation antigen (BCMA) is now widely approved in relapsed refractory patients and is moving into earlier treatment lines. In this review, we discuss the evidence underpinning current regulatory approvals and consider mechanisms through which CAR-T cell efficacy could be improved.

Background: Despite strong evidence for maintaining blood pressure (BP) < 130/80 for secondary stroke prevention, there have been many barriers toward achieving this goal. The purpose of this pilot study was to assess the feasibility of a new physician-led BP telemedicine program on the improvement of BP and medication compliance in stroke survivors.
Methods: We prospectively enrolled patients with a history of stroke and hypertension into this BP telemedicine program where participants were paired with a physician for one-on-one counseling.

Objective: Mastery of the posterior clinoidectomy technique is of utmost importance for neurosurgeons who specialize in endoscopic endonasal approaches, because the posterior clinoid process (PCP) is commonly involved in chondroid tumor resection. Three main techniques for posterior clinoidectomy have been developed: intradural, extradural, and transcavernous interdural. The authors introduce here a novel technical variant in which the transcavernous approach is extended to the dorsal clinoidal space after transection of the caroticoclinoid ligament, and they elaborate on its clinical application on the basis of anatomical dissections and radiological studies.

Background: Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is gaining traction as a treatment option for adolescents with severe obesity. Since our weight center last published results in 2014, trends have shown increasingly diverse patient populations undergoing MBS and a shift from laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) to sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). We assessed outcomes including follow-up, weight loss, comorbidity resolution, and complications among our recent adolescent and young adult MBS patients.

Background: Almost all acquired severe aplastic anaemia is immune mediated and characterised by hypocellular bone marrow and ≥2 affected haematopoietic lineages. The optimal preparartive regimen for unrelated donor transplantation remains to be established. We aimed to study long-term outcomes after unrelated donor transplantation for severe aplastic anaemia with de-escalation of cyclophosphamide (Cy) dose in steps of 50 mg/kg (150, 100, 50, 0 mg/kg) in combination with total body irradiation (TBI) 2 Gy, anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) and fludarabine.

The National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) for pain medicine fellowships marked its 10th anniversary in 2023, coinciding with growing discussions within the Association of Pain Program Directors (APPD) regarding the program's future in the context of a recent decline of applicants into pain medicine. This letter explores the rationale behind reassessing the NRMP's utility for pain medicine, examining historical and current trends, and considering the implications of withdrawing from the match. Despite a recent decline in applicants and an increase in unfilled positions, the APPD advocates for continued participation in the match.

Introduction: Recent observations suggest that circadian rhythms are implicated in the timing of stroke onset and the speed of infarct progression. We aimed to replicate these observations in a large, multi-center, automated imaging database.
Methods: The RAPID Insights database was queried from 02/01/2016 to 01/31/2022 for patients with perfusion imaging and automated detection of an ischemic stroke due to a presumed large vessel occlusion.

Objective: The cavernous sinus (CS) has 4 compartments: superior, inferior, posterior, and lateral. Among these, the lateral compartment is the most common location for residual tumor, given the risk of neurovascular injury. The authors' study aimed to delineate the anatomical landmarks in this area and illustrate the technical nuances of the lateral transcavernous approach.

Objective: Premature peripheral arterial disease (PAD) (age ≤50 years) has been shown to negatively impact the outcomes of lower extremity revascularization (LER). Patients with premature PAD have an increased risk of major amputation compared with older patients. The primary goal of this study is to compare the frequency of reinterventions after LER in patients with premature PAD to their older counterparts with common age of presentation (ie, 60-80 years).

The endoscopic endonasal approach has emerged as an excellent option for the treatment of lesions involving the petroclival fissure (PCF). Here, we investigate the surgical anatomy of the ventral PCF and its application in endoscopic endonasal surgery. Sixteen head specimens were used to investigate the anatomical features of PCF and relevant technical nuances in translacerum, extreme medial, and contralateral transmaxillary (CTM) approaches.

Introduction: To define the smallest prostate needle biopsy (PNB) template necessary for accurate tissue diagnosis in men with markedly elevated PSA while decreasing procedural morbidity.
Materials And Methods: We performed a chart review of 80 men presenting with a newly elevated PSA > 100 ng/mL who underwent biopsy (PNB or metastatic site). For patients who underwent a full 12-core biopsy, simulated templates of 2- to 10-cores were generated by randomly drawing subsets of biopsies from their full-template findings.
