Descriptive analysis and outcomes of PitNETs treated surgically during pregnancy and postpartum.

Objective: Data on pituitary neuroendocrine tumours (PitNETs) surgically treated during pregnancy are limited, and no studies have compared these cases to those treated in non-pregnant women. This study aimed to describe the clinical, radiological, and histological profiles of patients treated surgically for PitNETs during pregnancy and evaluate long-term prognosis.

Design: This study was multicentric, observational, and retrospective.

Bone Scintigraphy for Guidance of Targeted Treatment of Vertebral Compression Fractures.

Vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) are prevalent in the elderly population and might be the source of back pain if they are fresh and yet unhealed. In many cases, it is a diagnostic challenge to differentiate fresh VCFs from healed united fractures, which retain similar radiographic characteristics but no longer generate pain. This information is crucial for appropriate management.

Searches as data: archiving and sharing search strategies using an institutional data repository.

Background: By defining search strategies and related database exports as code/scripts and data, librarians and information professionals can expand the mandate of research data management (RDM) infrastructure to include this work. This new initiative aimed to create a space in McGill University's institutional data repository for our librarians to deposit and share their search strategies for knowledge syntheses (KS).

Case Presentation: The authors, a health sciences librarian and an RDM specialist, created a repository collection of librarian-authored knowledge synthesis (KS) searches in McGill University's Borealis Dataverse collection.

Love Data Week in the time of COVID-19: A content analysis of Love Data Week 2021 events.

A primary role for data-focused librarians is building community through traditional and novel modes of in-person outreach, including consultations, training, and themed events such as Love Data Week. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic rendered in-person events impossible. However, Love Data Week 2021 persisted in an online format, allowing data-focused librarians a unique chance to initiate outreach to geographically dispersed constituents.
