Background And Objectives: Explore whether community social capital measures (system of resources available to individuals through community engagement) are related to surgical outcomes among intracranial tumor patients.

Methods: Adults who underwent resection at a single medical center for intracranial tumor was identified and their zip codes were matched to three variables derived from the Social Capital Atlas: economic connectedness, volunteering rate, and civic organizations. The economic connectedness score quantifies the degree to which low-income and high-income community members are friends with each other, the volunteering rate is defined as the proportion of a given community engaged in community organizations and the civic organization score is defined as the number of local civic organizations within a given community.

Introduction Potentially surgical brain metastases are increasingly common in patients aged 80 and older, yet the risk-benefit profile of surgical resection in this population remains inadequately defined. Surgical intervention in octogenarians carries a high risk due to systemic issues associated with advanced age and prevalent comorbidities, and data on perioperative morbidity and functional outcomes are limited. Methods A retrospective case series including six patients aged 80 years and older who underwent craniotomy for the resection of brain metastases at a single tertiary care center was conducted.

ObjectiveRandomized trials will ultimately determine whether stand-alone middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) is effective in preventing the recurrence of chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH). We therefore characterized in-hospital complications, length of stay, and discharge disposition among adults undergoing stand-alone MMAE for non-traumatic cSDH in the United States.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort analysis using the National Inpatient Sample (2016-2022) to identify adult patients (≥18 years) with a primary diagnosis of nontraumatic cSDH.

Background: There are no universally established guidelines for when pediatric EH warrants hospitalization or intravenous (IV) acyclovir over oral therapy. To address this lack of consensus, this study aimed to describe outcomes of outpatient oral acyclovir treatment in pediatric EH cases, including rates of disease exacerbation, hospitalizations, and complications.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort review of pediatric patients under age 7 diagnosed with EH who presented to the pediatric emergency department (ED) between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2022.
