The effect of peripheral nerve blocks on quadriceps muscle strength in knee ligamentoplasty [PDF]
Serbian Journal of Anesthesia and Intensive Therapy, 2020 Introduction: Adequate pain control following ligamentoplasty, plays an important role in early mobilization of the patient. The aim of this study was to determine whether with the adductor canal block we can preserve quadriceps muscle strength better ...

Analgesic efficacy of selective tibial nerve block versus partial local infiltration analgesia for posterior pain after total knee arthroplasty: a randomized, controlled, triple-blinded trial. [PDF]
, 2023 The adductor canal block provides pain relief on the anterior aspect of the knee after arthroplasty. Pain on the posterior aspect may be treated either by partial local infiltration analgesia of the posterior capsule or by a tibial nerve block.

Cancer therapy‐induced ototoxicity: Current challenges and emerging management strategies
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.This review comprehensively examines the key risk factors for cancer therapy‐induced ototoxicity, including cumulative drug dose, genetic susceptibility, and combined treatment regimens. It highlights current challenges in ototoxicity monitoring, such as insufficient timeliness and limited clinical adoption, and advocates for standardized auditory ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The crania of leporid lagomorphs are uniquely fenestrated, including the posterior cranial bones and the lateral portion of the maxilla. The functional significance of the highly fenestrated rostrum has received considerably little attention, despite being absent in other mammalian herbivores with a long rostrum.
