Validation of the AO Spine Osteoporotic Fracture Classification—effect of geographical region on reliability and reproducibility

Regional differences affect the reliability of the AO Spine-DGOU Osteoporotic Fracture Classification. European participants showed the highest agreement. This study underscores the need for addressing regional factors to improve the system’s global clinical utility. To evaluate...

Long-Term Recovery Trajectories After Endovascular Treatment of Carotid-Cavernous Fistulas: A Single-Center Cohort Study

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs) are uncommon arteriovenous shunts that can present with a wide range of nonspecific ophthalmic and neurological symptoms, often leading to diagnostic delays. While endovascular embolization is the primary treatment moda...

Endoscopic versus catheter-based minimally invasive evacuation of spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) includes endoscopic evacuation and catheter-based evacuation (aspiration or drainage ± thrombolysis), but comparative performance remains uncertain. We performed a systematic...

Cavernous Sinus Thrombosis: Presentation, Management, and Initial Diagnostic Uncertainty

ABSTRACT Objective Cavernous sinus thrombosis (CST) is a life‐threatening diagnosis. Early CST may be difficult to detect, presenting without overt orbital findings or classic radiographic clues. The objective is to present the largest single‐institution series characterizing pre...

A Randomized Hybrid Type I Effectiveness-Implementation Study of an eHealth Delivery Alternative for Cancer Genetic Testing for Hereditary Cancer (eREACH2): study protocol

Abstract Background Germline cancer genetic testing has become a standard evidence-based practice, with established risk reduction and cancer screening guidelines for genetic carriers. There are also targeted treatments for some genetic carriers with cancers such as breast and ov...
