This study aims to systematically assess the therapeutic effectiveness of TiRobot-assisted percutaneous kyphoplasty or vertebroplasty in managing osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures. Previous studies have suggested that TiRobot-assisted techniques outperform conventional manual procedures in treating this condition, but relevant conclusions remain controversial. A thorough literature retrieval was carried out across 4 major databases: PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science.

Coronary artery aneurysms (CAAs) are frequent entities that are encountered in up to 8% of patients undergoing coronary imaging. The most frequent cause of CAAs is atherosclerotic "positive remodeling" of coronary arteries, while congenital, inflammatory, and traumatic etiologies could also be seen. Aneurysms serve as foci for thrombus formation, which may occlude the aneurysmatic segment or embolize distally.

Purpose: Femoral neck fractures are clinically rare and are associated with a high risk of complications in children. Traditional internal fixation implants such as Kirschner wires and partial-thread cannulated screws (PTCS) have complications such as screw withdrawal and internal fixation failure. To address this problem, in this study we investigated the effectiveness of headless cannulated compression screws (HCCS) in the treatment of femoral neck fractures in children patients.

Background: A significant proportion of patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have or develop comorbid depression and/or anxiety symptoms, which are associated with adverse events. The age, creatinine, and ejection fraction (ACEF) score is a good predictor for the prognostic assessment of certain cardiac diseases. But it has never been used to predict post-PCI depression and anxiety symptoms.

Avoidance of ionizing radiation during management of pediatric urolithiasis is imperative. Objectives are to evaluate feasibility of ultrasound-only-guided mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) in children and to compare it with fluoroscopic guidance. Randomized comparative trial (NCT03250559) including 60 renal units with stones >1 cm in 57 children ≤14 years.
