Multidomain Post-Concussive Symptom Trajectories and Biopsychosocial Correlates Following Pediatric Concussion

IMPORTANCE: Understanding how post-concussive symptoms (PCS) evolve across multiple domains and how these patterns relate to biopsychosocial factors is critical for identifying children at risk of prolonged recovery following concussion. OBJECTIVE: To identify clinically meaningf...

Fluid-intolerance signals as bedside safety limits during early septic shock resuscitation: a multicenter randomized trial

Fluid resuscitation in early septic shock has a narrow therapeutic index. Signals of fluid intolerance are frequently present during early resuscitation, yet current resuscitation strategies do not incorporate them to guide when to limit fluid administration. We evaluated whether...

Single-dose Preoperative Glucocorticoids in Major Gastrointestinal Surgery

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of single-dose preoperative systemic glucocorticoids in adults undergoing major gastrointestinal surgery. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Major gastrointestinal surgery induces a systemic inflammatory response that contributes t...

Effectiveness of bitter almond (Amygdalus communis L. var. Amara) gum as a prebiotic on glycemic indices, oxidative stress, and antioxidant biomarkers in women with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a randomized, placebo-controlled trial

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is marked by hyperglycemia, oxidative stress, and systemic inflammation. Prebiotics, such as bitter almond gum ( Amygdalus communis L. var. amara ), have the potential to influence gut microbiota and metabolic parameters, suggesting their role as d...

Bedside assistant models in robotic abdominal and pelvic surgery: a systematic review of operative efficiency, training exposure, and perioperative safety

Robotic surgery depends on effective bedside assistance, yet staffing models vary between physician and non-physician assistants. We systematically reviewed comparative evidence evaluating these models in robotic abdominal and pelvic surgery. A PRISMA compliant systematic review...
