Latest AI and machine learning research in pain management for healthcare professionals.
Comparative outcome studies investigating internal Double-J (DJ) and externalized stents have primarily been performed for open and laparoscopic pyeloplasty, with a paucity of literature surrounding outcomes in robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RALP). Furthermore, outcomes of a modified external stent inserted into the renal pelvis, termed cutaneous pyeloureteral (CPU) stent, remain unexam...
Although single-port robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (SP-RARP) is considered a safe and feasible approach for radical prostatectomy, the comparative performance of the SP robot with earlier models, including da Vinci Xi or Si, is elusive. This systematic review summarizes the current evidence on SP-RARP and compares its perioperative, functional, and oncologic outcomes to multiport robot-ass...
While even the most common definition of pain is under debate, pain assessment has remained the same for decades. But the paramount importance of prec...
Glaucoma is a multifactorial progressive and degenerative optic neuropathy representing one of the world's leading cause of irreversible blindness. Cu...

An objective measure of pain remains an unmet need of people with chronic pain, estimated to be 1/3 of the adult population in the United States. The ...
In neurosurgical or orthopedic clinics, the differential diagnosis of lower back pain is often time-consuming and costly. This is especially true when...
INTRODUCTION: Caudal epidural injections (CEIs) are widely used in the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). Imaging modalities, such as fluorosc...
Challenging trunk neuromuscular control maximally using a seated balancing task is useful for unmasking impairments that may go unnoticed with traditi...
: Experiences with psychedelic drugs, such as psilocybin or lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), are sometimes followed by changes in patterns of tobacco...
Cupping of the optic nerve head, a highly heritable trait, is a hallmark of glaucomatous optic neuropathy. Two key parameters are vertical cup-to-disc...
BACKGROUND: Periarticular infiltration (PAI) analgesia has been found to be an effective analgesia modality after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Dexme...
