Spinal Cord Stimulation as a Potential Therapeutic Modality for Managing Concurrent Chronic Low Back and Abdominal Pain Complicated by Device Migration: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT A 48‐year‐old man with chronic pancreatitis–related chronic abdominal pain (CAP) and concurrent chronic low back pain (LBP) with radiculopathy had inadequate relief from injectable and opioid therapies. A spinal cord stimulation (SCS) trial with dual leads spanning T4–T6 produced significant CAP relief, leading to permanent implantation at T5,

Impact of Preoperative Calcium and Magnesium Supplementation on Quality of Life and Hypocalcemia Post‐Thyroidectomy

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 1, January 2026.
Postoperative QoL improved in both groups, with earlier gains in Graves' disease patients receiving supplementation. Hypocalcemia and hypoparathyroidism rates were lower in the intervention group, which also showed higher calcium levels and fewer symptoms. Vitamin D deficiency was common but unrelated to hypocalcemia.
