Evaluating discrepancies between high‐yield neuroscience conditions in preclerkship medical education and national clinical incidence

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Medical education must balance foundational science with clinical relevance. Increasing emphasis on standardized assessments has led to prioritization of “high‐yield” conditions—those most likely to be assessed. Subsequently, educators and students often prioritize these conditions.

Fascial Mid‐Urethral Sling or Artificial Urinary Sphincter in Women With Neurological Diseases, a Multicenter Study

open access: yesNeurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Achieving continence in patients with neurogenic bladder is a difficult goal especially when stress urinary incontinence (SUI) due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency is involved. Two techniques are commonly used in that setting, but they have never been directly compared: the artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) and the fascial ...

Cholinergic inputs to motoneurons in the spinal cord augment focal muscle spasticity in rodents

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Cholinergic premotor inputs to motoneurons support high levels of motor output when required. However, the possible role of these inputs in pathologically elevated muscle tone has not been characterised. To address this, we examined the modulatory effect of spinal acetylcholine (ACh) on experimental spastic paralysis ...

Equine vegetative endocarditis and vertebral osteomyelitis due to refractory Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae infection

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae was the causative agent of vegetative endocarditis and vertebral osteomyelitis in a 24‐year‐old Irish draught gelding that presented with prolonged history of intermittent pyrexia and tachycardia. Clinical investigations revealed persistently reduced neck mobility, tachydysrhythmia and episodic pyrexia up to 41°C ...

Sensory Loss Mimicking Cauda Equina Syndrome due to Cervical Spinal Lesion in a Patient with Clinically Isolated Syndrome

open access: yesCase Reports in Neurology, 2012
We describe the case of a 39-year-old woman with signs and symptoms suggesting cauda equina syndrome. Lumbosacral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated no lesion at this level, while cervical MRI showed a T2-hyperintense lesion in the middle ...

Multidimensional Management of Degenerative Scoliosis: A Comprehensive Narrative Review Integrating Diagnostic Assessment, Surgical Decision‐Making, and Patient‐Centered Outcomes

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
The contemporary, multidimensional management pathway for de novo degenerative lumbar scoliosis, integrating quantitative diagnosis (coronal Cobb angle and Pfirrmann disk grading), multidimensional preoperative evaluation (CT Hounsfield Units, spinopelvic alignment, paraspinal muscle quality), stratified treatment (conservative care vs.
