Comparison of two peripheral regional analgesic techniques for primary elective total hip arthroplasty: a randomised clinical trial

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Several regional anaesthesia techniques have been used in the peri‐operative pain management of patients who undergo primary elective total hip arthroplasty. The erector spinae plane, pericapsular nerve group and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve blocks offer motor‐sparing analgesia of the hip region but target different areas.

Impact of Frailty in Patients With Continuous‐Flow Left Ventricular Assist Device Therapy in End‐Stage Heart Failure: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Frailty significantly impacts clinical outcomes in LVAD recipients. This systematic review and meta‐analysis reveal that frail patients experience higher long‐term mortality but comparable short‐term mortality, hospital stay, and complication rates to non‐frail patients.

Kinesio Taping Applied to Lumbar Muscles in Static Lumbar Flexion

Physical Treatments, 2015
Purpose: In approaching full trunk flexion (75%-80% of full flexion), myoelectric activity of lumbar erector spinae muscles is reduced or silenced; this response is known as flexion-relaxation phenomenon (FRP).

New perspectives on body size and shape evolution in dinosaurs

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diversity in the body shapes and sizes of dinosaurs was foundational to their widespread success during the Mesozoic era. The ability to quantify body size and form reliably is therefore critical to the study of dinosaur biology and evolution.
