Enhancing geriatric trauma mortality prediction: Modifying and assessing the Geriatric Trauma Outcome Score with net benefit and decision curve analysis

open access: yesAcademic Emergency Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Calibration and discrimination indicators alone are insufficient for evaluating the clinical usefulness of prediction models, as they do not account for the cost of misclassification errors. This study aimed to modify the Geriatric Trauma Outcome Score (GTOS) and assess the clinical utility of the modified model using net benefit (NB)

Safety and Efficacy of 10 kHz Spinal Cord Stimulation for the Treatment of Refractory Chronic Migraine: A Prospective Long‐Term Open‐Label Study

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Background Refractory chronic migraine (rCM) is a highly disabling condition for which novel safe and effective treatments are needed. Safety and long‐term efficacy of paresthesia‐free high cervical 10 kHz spinal cord stimulation (SCS) were here prospectively evaluated for the treatment of rCM.

Index cases of intracranial aneurysms in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: longitudinal experience from a single renal transplantation centre

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The prevalence of intracranial aneurysms (ICAs) is higher in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) than in the general population. This extrarenal manifestation carries significant mortality and morbidity risks.

Electrically Evoked Compound Action Potentials in Spinal Cord Stimulation: Implications for Preclinical Research Models

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives The study aimed to assess the feasibility of recording electrically evoked compound action potentials (ECAPs) from the rat spinal cord. To achieve this, we characterized electrophysiological responses of dorsal column (DC) axons from electrical stimulation and quantified the relationship between ECAP and motor thresholds (ECAPTs and

Severe hemothorax due to traumatic fracture of thoracic vertebra

open access: yesSurgical Case Reports
Abstract Background Hemothorax occurs in approx. 0.4% of all chest injury patients, but hemothorax due to a thoracic vertebral fracture is rare. Case presentation A 76-year-old Japanese man was transported to our hospital for right hemothorax due to a car accident.

SLoRD: Structural Low-Rank Descriptors for Shape Consistency in Vertebrae Segmentation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Automatic and precise multi-class vertebrae segmentation from CT images is crucial for various clinical applications. However, due to similar appearances between adjacent vertebrae and the existence of various pathologies, existing single-stage and multi-stage methods suffer from imprecise vertebrae segmentation.
