The “Bright Falx” Sign—Midline Embolic Penetration Is Associated With Faster Resolution of Chronic Subdural Hematoma After Middle Meningeal Artery Embolization: A Case Series
CONCLUSION: Distal penetration of embolic material, particularly n-butyl cyanoacrylate, into the falx may lead to more rapid improvement of CSDH. (Source: Neurosurgery)

Survival Prediction After Neurosurgical Resection of Brain Metastases: A Machine Learning Approach
BACKGROUND: Current prognostic models for brain metastases (BMs) have been constructed and validated almost entirely with data from patients receiving up-front radiotherapy, leaving uncertainty about surgical patients. OBJECTIVE: To build and validate a model predicting 6-month survival after BM resection using different machine learning algorithms. METHODS: An institutional database of 1062 patients who underwent resection for BM was split into an 80:20 training and testing set. Seven different machine learning algorithms were trained and assessed for performance; an established prognostic model for pati...

Characteristics and Outcomes of Discharge Against Medical Advice and 30-Day Readmissions After Concussion: Analysis of the Nationwide Readmissions Database
CONCLUSION: DAMA is an independent risk factor for readmission in patients admitted for concussion. The variables associated with DAMA identified in this study can be used to design patient-centered interventions that can be implemented to reduce DAMA and its impact on clinical outcomes in patients with traumatic brain injury.
