Here, we evaluate the evolution and growth of global neurosurgery publications over time, further focusing on contributions impact authors in low- middle-income countries (LMICs).
Background: Poor durability of femoropopliteal artery (FPA) stenting is multifactorial, and severe FPA deformations occurring with limb flexion are likely involved. Different stent designs result in dissimilar stent–artery interactions, but the degree these effects insufficiently understood. Objectives: To determine how different affect flexion-induced deformations. Methods: Retrievable markers were deployed into n = 28 FPAs lightly embalmed human cadavers. Bodies perfused CT images acquired...
High failure rates of femoropopliteal artery (FPA) interventions are often attributed to severe mechanical deformations that occur with limb movement. Torsion the FPA likely plays a significant role, but is poorly characterized and associated intramural stresses currently unknown. torsion in walking, sitting gardening postures was n = 28 situ FPAs using intra-arterial markers. Principal strains were quantified superficial femoral (SFA), adductor hiatus segment (AH) popliteal (PA) analytical...
OBJECTIVE Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a well-established treatment for Parkinson’s disease (PD) and essential tremor (ET). Although the prevalence of PD ET can vary by sex race, little known about accessibility neurosurgical treatments these conditions. In this nationwide study, authors aimed to characterize trends in use DBS identify disparities diseases based on ethnic, racial, sex, insurance, income, hospital, geographic factors. METHODS Using dates January 1, 2012, December 31, 2019,...
Subcallosal cingulate (SCC) deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an emerging therapy for refractory depression. Good clinical outcomes are associated with the activation of white matter adjacent to SCC. This produces a signature cortical evoked potential (EP), but it unclear which many pathways in vicinity SCC responsible driving this response. Individualized biophysical models were built achieve selective engagement two target bundles: either forceps minor (FM) or cingulum bundle (CB)....
BACKGROUND Uncontrolled hemorrhage from vessel injuries within the torso remains a significant source of prehospital trauma mortality. Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion aorta can effectively control noncompressible hemorrhage, but this minimally invasive technique relies heavily on imaging not available in field. Our goal was to develop morphometric roadmaps enhance safety and accuracy fluoroscopy-free navigation devices. METHODS Three-dimensional reconstructions computed...
Machine learning (ML) holds promise as a tool to guide clinical decision making by predicting in-hospital mortality for patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Previous models such the international mission prognosis and trials in TBI (IMPACT) corticosteroid randomization after significant head (CRASH) calculators can potentially be improved expanded features newer ML approaches.
INTRODUCTION: Cervical spine injuries (CSIs) are heterogeneous in nature and often lead to long-term disability morbidity. However, there few recent comprehensive epidemiological studies on CSI. METHODS: The National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS) was used extract data CSIs from 2002-2022. Patient narratives were categorize injury etiology (i.e. fall), identify CSI level. K-means clustering performed cervical levels define upper vs lower injuries. RESULTS: A total of 11,822...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Traumatic thoracic spinal cord injury (SCI) is complicated by chronic neuropathic pain and neurological deficits including bowel bladder dysfunction. Treatment with stimulation (SCS) has demonstrated possible utility in previous observational studies. In this article, we discuss the protocol for an actively enrolling, NIH-funded clinical trial investigating use of dual lead (thoracic conus medullaris) SCS as a treatment SCI. METHODS: The single-blinded, 2-arm...
OBJECTIVE The rates of women and underrepresented racial ethnic minority (UREM) students successfully matching into neurosurgical residency are extremely low do not reflect the makeup general population. As 2019, only 17.5% residents in United States were women, 4.95% Black or African American, 7.2% Hispanic Latinx. Earlier recruitment UREM will help to diversify workforce. Therefore, authors developed a virtual educational event for undergraduate entitled "Future Leaders Neurosurgery...
