Objective: This study investigated the combined effect of stereotactic hematoma evacuation and early postoperative physical function exercise in hemodialysis patients with cerebral hemorrhage.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted, including a total of 78 hemodialysis patients with cerebral hemorrhage treated at our hospital between January 2021 and June 2022. The patients were equally allocated to two groups based on different postoperative rehabilitation methods. The control group underwent stereotactic hematoma evacuation, while the study group received additional early postoperative physical function exercise in addition to the intervention provided to the control group. The operative conditions of both groups were recorded, and comparisons were made concerning neural function, limb function, daily activity ability, and complications.
Results: There were no significant differences between the two groups regarding operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and hematoma removal rate (P > .05). However, the study group demonstrated a significantly shorter hospital stay (12.98 ± 2.01 days) compared to the control group (15.02 ± 2.07 days), P < .05. Post-treatment, the study group exhibited substantially lower neurological function scores (NIHSS score) (6.37 ± 1.02) compared to the control group (10.03 ± 1.09), P < .05. Additionally, the study group showed significantly higher limb function scores (P < .05) and daily activity ability scores (P < .05) compared to the control group. Moreover, the incidence of complications in the study group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P < .05).
Conclusions: Early postoperative physical function exercise following stereotactic hematoma evacuation showed beneficial effects in hemodialysis patients with cerebral hemorrhage. It effectively reduced operation time, restored nerve and limb function, improved daily activity ability, and reduced the incidence of related complications. These approaches hold crucial clinical significance.

IntroductionVenous sinus stenting (VSS) is an effective, less invasive alternative to ventriculoperitoneal shunting (VPS) for idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). While efficacy is comparable, with some evidence favoring VSS for headache control, perioperative costs remain under-characterized due to reliance on reimbursement rates rather than actual expenditures.ObjectiveTo compare the perioperative cost of elective VSS and VPS for IIH, including outpatient workup and follow-up costs, using detailed institutional cost data.

Background: Peripheral nerve injury commonly results in pain and long-term disability for patients. Recovery after in-continuity stretch or crush injury remains inherently unpredictable. However, surgical intervention yields the most favorable outcomes when performed shortly after injury.

BackgroundTherapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) with albumin replacement has emerged as a potential treatment for Alzheimer's disease (AD). The AMBAR trial showed that TPE could slow cognitive and functional decline, along with changes in core and inflammatory biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid.ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and effectiveness of TPE in a real-world setting in Argentina.

Importance: Stoma reversal is associated with few complications. However, recent studies show that 1 in 3 patients develop an incisional hernia, for which half of the patients receive surgical correction.
Objective: To investigate whether prophylactic synthetic mesh placement in the retromuscular space during stoma reversal reduces the rate of stomal site incisional hernias.

Importance: Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with or without prostate biopsy, has become the standard of care for diagnosing clinically significant prostate cancer. Resource capacity limits widespread adoption. Biparametric MRI, which omits the gadolinium contrast sequence, is a shorter and cheaper alternative offering time-saving capacity gains for health systems globally.
