Analysis of neurosurgery resident research activity in the United States
CONCLUSIONS: The authors observed overall high research activity among neurosurgery residents. Factors such as gender, degree, PGY, IMG/AMG status, and medical school rank may therefore be related to the success of matching within neurological surgery. Although large disparities in gender representation have been identified in neurosurgery, newer classes are trending toward shrinking the gap. These data may be used by prospective residents to gauge changes and progress occurring in the neurosurgery match.PMID:38701523 | DOI:10.3171/2024.2.JNS232752 (Source: Journal of Neurosurgery)

Association of preprocedural antiplatelet use with decreased thromboembolic complications for intracranial aneurysms undergoing intrasaccular flow disruption
CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this study suggest that the preprocedural administration of antiplatelets is associated with a reduced likelihood of TECs in patients undergoing treatment with the WEB device for wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms. However, postprocedural antiplatelet use did not show a significant impact on TEC occurrence.PMID:38701528 | DOI:10.3171/2024.2.JNS232918 (Source: Journal of Neurosurgery)

Risk assessment of early therapeutic anticoagulation following cranial surgery: an institutional case series
CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of catastrophic ICH was significantly increased when anticoagulation was initiated within 48 hours of cranial surgery. Patients undergoing intra-axial exploration during their index surgery were at higher risk of a catastrophic ICH.PMID:38701530 | DOI:10.3171/2024.2.JNS24146 (Source: Journal of Neurosurgery)

Evaluation of the Glasgow Coma Scale-Pupils score for predicting inpatient mortality among patients with traumatic subdural hematoma at United States trauma centers
CONCLUSIONS: The GCS-P score provides better short-term prognostication compared with the GCS score alone among traumatic SDH patients with penetrating TBI. The GCS-P score overestimates inpatient mortality risk among penetrating TBI patients with higher rates of observed mortality. For penetrating TBI patients, which comprised 2.4% of our SDH cohort, a low GCS-P score should not justify clinical nihilism or forgoing aggressive treatment.PMID:38701532 | DOI:10.3171/2024.2.JNS232695 (Source: Journal of Neurosurgery)

Microscope-integrated optical coherence tomography for in vivo human brain tumor detection with artificial intelligence
CONCLUSIONS: In vivo OCT scanning of the human brain has been shown to contain significant value for intraoperative RTD, supporting what has previously been discussed for ex vivo OCT brain tumor scanning, with the perspective of complementing current intraoperative methods for this purpose, especially when deciding to withdraw from further resection toward the end of the surgery.PMID:38701517 | DOI:10.3171/2024.1.JNS231511 (Source: Journal of Neurosurgery)

Longitudinal brain volumetrics in glioma survivors
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated volume loss in contralateral brain structures among LGG survivors, and patients who received RT experienced greater volume loss than those who did not. The results of this study may help to provide context for cognitive outcome research in LGG survivors and inform the design of future strategies to preserve cognition.PMID:38669700 | DOI:10.3171/2024.1.JNS231980 (Source: Journal of Neurosurgery)

Endoscopic endonasal pituitary sacrifice for select tumors with retrochiasmatic and/or retrosellar extension: surgical anatomy, operative technique, and case series
CONCLUSIONS: When preoperative pituitary function is already impaired or the risk for postoperative PH is considered particularly high, the EEPS and transsellar approach appears to be a feasible surgical option to improve visibility and accessibility to the retrochiasmatic hypothalamic and retrosellar spaces, thus increasing tumor resectability.PMID:38669701 | DOI:10.3171/2024.1.JNS232267 (Source: Journal of Neurosurgery)
