Use and experienced effectiveness of non-pharmacological treatments for chronic spinal cord injury related pain in The Netherlands: A cross-sectional survey
CONCLUSION: Patients with SCI experiencing pain often use non-pharmacological treatments. Most treatments were described as moderately effective. Research on specific non-pharmacological treatments and different types of pain separately is needed to further determine the effectiveness of non-pharmacological treatments.PMID:38695723 | DOI:10.1080/10790268.2024.2345448 (Source: Journal of Spinal Cord Medicine)

Medical Specialist Care Utilization Prior to the Explantation of Cosmetic Silicone Breast Implants: A Nationwide Retrospective Data Linkage Study
ConclusionsWomen who underwent explantation of breast implants had higher utilization of medical specialist care in the years before explantation compared to women who underwent breast implant replacement surgery and women without breast implants. Medical specialist care use was especially high among women for whom BII was the registered reason for explantation. These findings suggest further research is needed into the link between BII and the use of medical specialist care.Level of Evidence IIIThis journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article. For a full description of these Evidence-Based Med...

Nobel-winning neuroscientist faces scrutiny for data discrepancies in more than a dozen papers
Several research articles co-authored by Nobel Prize–winning neuroscientist Thomas Südhof are under scrutiny after online commentators raised concerns about data duplication, discrepancies in images, and other issues. Over the past year, journals have corrected five of the papers flagged on the postpublication peer-review site PubPeer and retracted another. Science has learned that journals are preparing corrections for at least three further articles. Eight more are under investigation and authors have asked journals to correct or publish updated data on another seven. Südhof, who works at Stanfo...

Worry as Important "Feelers" in Clinical Anesthesia Practice: A Mixed-Methods Study
CONCLUSIONS: While a clear definition of worry could not be given, it is a valuable element of anesthesia practice as it serves as a catalyst for critical thinking, problem-solving, clinical reasoning, and decision-making. Use of the feeling of worry alongside technological systems to make an informed decision is crucial. Technology has significantly improved the ability of health care providers to detect and respond to patient deterioration promptly, but it is crucial for nurse anesthetists to use their feeling of worry or intuition alongside technological systems and evidence-based practice to ensure quick assessments or...
