Efficacy of current approaches to non-invasive diagnosis of skin cancer and the potential impact of artificial intelligence: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: Skin cancer is one of the most prevalent malignancies worldwide, particularly within Caucasian populations. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to quantitatively review the current literature on non-invasive diagnosis of skin cancer and evaluate the current evidence to support the use of tools in addition to, or in replacement of clinician face-to-face assessment. METHODS: A literature search was conducted for publications in PubMed, Medline and Embase databases. Articles describing accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and outcomes of their mode of assessment were included. A total of 208 articles met the inclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: This systematic review and meta-analysis showed that the diagnostic performance of artificial intelligence (AI) in the interpretation of dermatoscopic images was high for melanoma diagnosis, basal cell carcinoma or malignancy, in comparison to dermatoscopic assessment alone by clinicians and experts. Although AI interpretation of images demonstrated higher sensitivity for melanoma diagnosis in comparison to clinical assessment combined with dermatoscopic assessment, it is unclear if this is also the case for basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma diagnosis. Reflectance confocal microscopy, a non-invasive high resolution imaging technique, is known to have a high sensitivity for diagnosing cutaneous malignancy, and this may have applications within secondary care. Therefore, AI could help reduce resource burden and aid in clinical assessment, particularly within primary care settings.

Current Diagnostic Pathways for Rheumatoid Arthritis-Associated Interstitial Lung Disease Result in Substantial Underdiagnosis and Excess Mortality: A Multicenter Norwegian Quality Assurance Audit.

OBJECTIVE: Recent guidelines suggest risk-stratified screening for rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD). However, the diagnostic gap between current routine care and this screening approach remains unquantified. We assessed currently detected RA-ILD in Norway, benchmarking findings against recent screening-based estimates of the true disease burden. METHODS: This 10-year quality assurance audit across six centers covered 43% of the Norwegian population. RA-ILD cases identified via ICD-10 codes were confirmed by manual chart review. Prevalence was calculated relative to a registry-derived total RA background population and benchmarked against a 10% expected target derived from recent prospective studies. Mortality was compared to a 3:1 frequency-matched RA control group using Cox proportional hazards regression. RESULTS: Among 17,305 RA patients, 188 (1.1%) had verified ILD; when benchmarked against an expected 10% prevalence, this indicates an 89% diagnostic gap in routine clinical care. Mean age at ILD detection was 67.5 years. Most cases (93.6%) possessed ≥2 established risk factors for RA-ILD: 93.6% were seropositive, 76.1% had smoking histories, while RA onset age ≥60 and persistently increased inflammatory laboratory markers were present in over half of patients. RA-ILD was associated with significantly increased mortality; 66 (4.1/100 person-years) deaths occurred in the RA-ILD group vs. 120 (2.3/100 person-years) among RA controls (HR 1.77; 95% CI: 1.31-2.39, p<0.001). CONCLUSION: When comparing to prevalence expectations, current routine care may leave a substantial proportion of cases undetected, primarily capturing a high-risk phenotype with excess mortality. Systematic, risk-stratified screening is needed to bridge this diagnostic gap, aiming to enable earlier intervention.

Transverse Tibial Transport for Limb Salvage in Ischemic Lower Extremity Disease: Technique, Mechanisms, and Clinical Outcomes-A Systematic Review.

Transverse tibial transport (TTT) is a surgical technique derived from Ilizarov's distraction osteogenesis principles that stimulates angiogenesis and microcirculatory regeneration in the ischemic lower limb without directly manipulating macrovascular anatomy. By creating a proximal tibial cortical bone window and distracting it transversely using an external fixator, TTT triggers converging cascades of growth factor release, endothelial progenitor cell mobilization, and immunomodulation that translate into improved distal limb perfusion and wound healing. Combined TTT plus endovascular therapy improves amputation-free survival versus endovascular therapy alone. Prospective randomized trials and standardized international protocols are needed to consolidate TTT's role in multidisciplinary limb salvage pathways.

Pelvic lymph node dissection in prostate cancer: current evidence, controversies, and future directions.

BACKGROUND: Pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) remains controversial in the management of prostate cancer. Although it provides the most accurate pathological staging, its therapeutic value beyond staging has long been debated due to conflicting evidence and concerns regarding procedure-related morbidity. OBJECTIVE: To critically evaluate the contemporary role of PLND, particularly extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND), in prostate cancer management in the context of modern imaging, risk stratification tools, and evolving oncologic endpoints. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION: A narrative review of recent literature was conducted, focusing on high-level evidence including randomized trials, observational studies, and contemporary guideline recommendations addressing the indications, extent, oncologic outcomes, and complications of PLND. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS: Recent randomized and observational studies suggest that ePLND improves nodal staging accuracy and may be associated with modest improvements in metastasis-free survival (MFS) in selected patients with intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer, although the absolute benefit remains limited and causality is not definitively established. Advances in molecular imaging, particularly prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT, together with multiparametric MRI, validated nomograms, and emerging genomic classifiers, now allow more precise identification of patients most likely to benefit from ePLND. The integration of these tools supports a more individualized surgical strategy, including image-guided and sentinel lymph node approaches designed to maximize staging accuracy while minimizing unnecessary dissection. CONCLUSIONS: In the contemporary PSMA imaging era, ePLND continues to play an important role in nodal staging and may contribute to improved oncologic outcomes in carefully selected patients.

A review into the recent advances in the world of amoebiasis.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Amoebiasis is a parasitic infection caused by Entamoeba histolytica , affecting 10% of the global population. It is a well recognized cause of morbidity and mortality in low-middle-income countries where it is endemic. However, with increased migration and global travel, amoebiasis is now more common in high-income countries, although diagnosis is often delayed or even missed due to lack of awareness of the latest epidemiology and optimal diagnostic testing. This review discusses the evolving prevalence, and the current international guidelines for the investigation and treatment of amoebiasis, focusing on recent advances. RECENT FINDINGS: The recent literature shows that the primary investigations for amoebiasis remain the same, though newer modalities such as artificial intelligence-powered microscopy and metagenomics have been developed recently, which aids the accuracy and speed of diagnosis. Treatment remains the same, though current research has found potential new drugs and drug targets which show promise. SUMMARY: This review reinforces the importance of early clinical suspicion, diagnosis and treatment for amoebiasis. What was once a disease only seen in endemic countries or travel-associated imported cases is now more common and must not be missed.

New World screwworm: a re-emerging parasitic threat.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: New World screwworm (NWS) is an emerging parasitic threat in Central America and Mexico, which is spreading northward into the southern United States. Here we highlight the changing epidemiology, lifecycle of the NWS fly, clinical presentation, identification, treatment, and potential complications of NWS myiasis. RECENT FINDINGS: Despite decades of successfully containing NWS flies south of the Darien Gap in southern Panama, NWS flies reemerged in the Central America region in 2023 and have continued to spread northward ever since. On 3 June 2026, United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) confirmed the identification of an NWS infestation in a young calf in southern Texas. In addition to describing the current epidemiology of the NWS outbreak, we present information about clinical presentation and management of NWS myiasis in patients and include representative cases of patients who experienced NWS myiasis. SUMMARY: This review provides important epidemiologic and clinical updates to an emerging parasitic threat so clinicians can understand the risks and clinical management for patients with suspected NWS myiasis.

The return of measles: a dangerous comeback.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Measles has reemerged as a significant global public health threat, with increasing morbidity and mortality associated with declining vaccination rates. This review summarizes current global outbreaks, history of measles, vaccination and elimination status, vaccine hesitancy, and outbreak response and lessons learned highlighting different novel digital epidemiological tools. RECENT FINDINGS: Measles continues to surge worldwide with an estimated 11 million infections in 2024, which is more than prepandemic levels. Developing and developed countries are both facing measles outbreaks, with the United States at risk of losing measles elimination status. Recent studies have showed that worldwide percentages of two-dose measles vaccination were lower than 95% that is required to interrupt measles transmission in all WHO regions. Novel epidemiological tools such as interactive simulators, real-time use of dynamic models, serosurveillance, and others are transforming measles outbreak response and enable earlier outbreak detection, tracking, and targeted public health interventions. SUMMARY: Vaccine hesitancy is one of the top global health threats and developing a tailored evidence-based approach is necessary to establish and maintain measles elimination.

Soft Tissue Volume Augmentation at Single Implant Sites Applying Collagen Matrices or Connective Tissue Grafts: 10-Year Follow-Up of a Randomized Controlled Trial.

AIM: To compare up to 10 years clinical, profilometric and patient-reported outcomes of implant sites previously augmented using a volume-stable collagen matrix (VCMX) or connective tissue graft (SCTG) in the aesthetic zone. METHODS: The original non-inferiority randomized controlled trial (RCT) enrolled 20 patients who received soft tissue volume augmentation with VCMX or SCTG at single implant sites. Clinical assessments and standardized measurements were performed at baseline after crown insertion and at 6 months, 1, 3, 5, 7.5, and 10 years. The primary outcome was mucosal thickness. Secondary outcomes included marginal bone levels (MBL), probing depth (PD), bleeding on probing (BOP), plaque control record, Pink Aesthetic Score (PES), OHIP-14 and buccal profilometric changes. Group comparisons were performed using mixed-effects and generalized estimating equation (GEE) models, which account for within-patient correlations due to repeated measurements and allow inclusion of all available data without requiring imputation for missing observations. RESULTS: Of the 20 originally enrolled patients, 10 (5 in the SCTG group and 5 in the VCMX group) were available for re-examination at 10 years. The adjusted between-group difference in mucosal thickness was -0.02 mm (95% CI -0.99 to 0.96). As the lower bound of the confidence interval remained above the prespecified non-inferiority margin of -1 mm, non-inferiority of VCMX was shown. Buccal contour changes were comparable during the early follow-up, while a trend toward a greater long-term contour decrease was observed in group VCMX (-0.31 mm [95% CI, -0.65 to 0.03]; p = 0.07). Mean PES values were 10.6 in the SCTG group and 9.6 in the VCMX group, with no significant between-group differences (p = 0.45). Both groups revealed high levels of oral health-related quality of life, with low median OHIP-14 scores (SCTG, 0.0; VCMX, 1.0; p = 0.26). CONCLUSION: These preliminary long-term findings showed no clinically relevant differences between SCTG and VCMX in terms of clinical, profilometric and patient-reported outcomes. While SCTG remains the reference standard, VCMX represents a less invasive alternative but with a slight tendency toward greater long-term contour reduction. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Volume-stable collagen matrices serve as a viable alternative to autogenous connective tissue grafts for peri-implant soft tissue volume augmentation, particularly in patients seeking a reduced morbidity, without compromising long-term clinical or aesthetic outcomes. TRIAL REGISTRATION: German Clinical Trials Register: DRKS00017484.

Morbidity and mortality from local anesthetics: localized and systemic toxicity.

PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW: Local anesthetics remain vital to modern medicine, yet their narrow therapeutic window continues to result in complications. This review synthesizes recent literature to define the current landscape of local anesthetic-associated adverse events. RECENT FINDINGS: Perioperative mortality attributable to local anesthetics persists despite sustained safety initiatives and professional society recommendations. Pharmacovigilance and case data identify lidocaine (oropharyngeal, topical, and via local infiltration) as the predominant contributor to adverse outcomes, including death. Local anesthetic systemic toxicity remains an issue, with a recent shift in epidemiology: an increasing proportion of toxic events originates from surgeon- and proceduralist-administered analgesia. Anesthesiologist-controlled methods also cause toxicity via catheter-based delivery and nerve blocks in highly vascular regions. Localized toxicity in the form of high neuraxial contributes to morbidity, with recent reviews reinforcing known risk factors; whereas localized neurotoxicity appears less troublesome when managed appropriately. SUMMARY: The cumulative evidence identifies shifts in the patterns of systemic and localized toxicities. Bupivacaine-based peripheral nerve blocks no longer represent the principal cause of complications because of the advent of ultrasound guidance and lipid emulsion therapy. In contrast, high neuraxial techniques persist as a cause of morbidity, accompanied by intravenous/oropharyngeal lidocaine, proceduralist-administered local infiltration analgesia, and catheter-based delivery.

Cooperative anaerobic catabolism of chlorinated organic compounds: implications for sustainable bioremediation.

Biodegradation research historically followed a reductionist approach focused on axenic (pure) cultures capable of catabolizing the specific contaminant(s) of interest. While this approach has substantially advanced our understanding of the microbiology, physiology, biochemistry, and genetics of contaminant degradation under laboratory conditions, it does not capture the complexity of natural and engineered environments. During in situ bioremediation, microbiomes are exposed to mixtures of contaminants, and microbial interactions profoundly influence contaminant transformation and fate. In anoxic environments, degradation of chlorinated compounds is often sustained by metabolic cooperation among taxonomically and physiologically distinct microorganisms. Through the exchange of metabolites such as hydrogen, formate, acetate, and other nutrients, microbial populations establish interdependent networks that overcome thermodynamic and physiological constraints, enabling self-sustaining systems of contaminant transformations that would be inefficient or impossible with individual organisms. We highlight examples of microbial interactions that underpin anaerobic catabolism of chlorinated contaminants, including systems resulting in self-sustained anaerobic bioremediation.

Chronic postsurgical pain: risk assessment and mitigation.

PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW: Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) and persistent postoperative opioid use (PPOU) are two of the most common complications of a number of surgical interventions, which can cause significant personal and economic negative consequences. This review outlines known and potential risk factors for CPSP and PPOU and approaches to reduce these risk factors. RECENT FINDINGS: Modifiable risk factors for developing CPSP include psychological distress, preoperative pain intensity, and perioperative opioid exposure. Although less studied, psychological comorbidities are also risk factors for PPOU. Evidence-based mitigation strategies include psychological interventions and perioperative opioid sparing. SUMMARY: A number of perioperative risk factors for developing CPSP and PPOU have been identified, and anesthesiologists should be cognizant of these risk factors and potential risk mitigation strategies. Additional prospective studies are needed to further develop easily adoptable, evidence-based interventions to reduce the incidence of CPSP and PPOU.

Management of neonates born to mothers with reactive serologic tests for syphilis.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The dramatic resurgence of maternal and congenital syphilis in the United States highlights the need for their optimal management as syphilis in pregnancy can result in substantial neonatal morbidity and mortality. This review summarizes current epidemiology and discusses guidance on the management of neonates born to mothers with reactive serologic tests for syphilis. RECENT FINDINGS: Timely communication with local health department professionals is essential for optimal management of mothers with reactive serologic tests for syphilis and their neonates. Knowledge of maternal syphilis treatment history by partnering with local jurisdictions can circumvent much of the incertitude surrounding neonatal management. All neonates born to mothers with reactive serologic tests for syphilis should be tested using a nontreponemal ('lipoidal antigen') test. However, a reactive test may only indicate maternal nontreponemal IgG antibodies that are transferred transplacentally to the fetus. Therefore, neonatal management depends on maternal history and treatment for syphilis as well as clinical, laboratory, and radiographic findings in the neonatal evaluation. Existing management algorithms are complex, highlighting the need for a more practical, yet safe, approach. SUMMARY: A neonatal management guideline is proposed that may simplify the management of neonates born to mothers with reactive serologic tests for syphilis while advocating for expanded use of single-dose benzathine penicillin G therapy.

The value of international collaborations for supporting neuroanesthesia practice, education, and research in resource-constrained settings.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Neuroanesthesia practice in low- and middle-income countries is constrained by workforce shortages, limited infrastructure, and variability in clinical practice. Growing global interest in collaboration makes it timely to evaluate how international partnerships can address these gaps and improve equity in care, education, and research. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent literature highlights substantial variability in neuroanesthesia practice and limited access to context-appropriate guidelines and advanced technologies. International collaborations, including training partnerships, scholarship programs, and research networks, have improved knowledge exchange, workforce development, and the adoption of standardized practices. Evidence suggests that specialized training is associated with improved clinical outcomes. However, persistent inequities in research participation, authorship, and leadership, as well as concerns regarding sustainability and 'parachute research', remain. SUMMARY: International collaboration is a key strategy for advancing neuroanesthesia in resource-constrained settings. Sustainable, equitable partnerships that prioritize local ownership, capacity building, and contextual adaptation are essential to improving clinical practice, strengthening education, and enhancing global research representation.

Environmentally relevant concentrations of DCOIT impaired lifespan and healthspan in Caenorhabditis elegans.

DCOIT (4,5-dichloro-2-n-octyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one) is an antifouling biocide widely used as an alternative to organotin compounds. While previous studies had focused on its effects on energy production, endocrine disruption, and lipid metabolism, its impact on aging and underlying mechanisms remained unclear. Here, we demonstrated that environmentally relevant concentrations of DCOIT (37, 370 and 3700 ng/L) significantly impaired both lifespan and healthspan in Caenorhabditis elegans. RNA-seq and validation assays revealed that DCOIT upregulated comt-4, a key gene in dopamine metabolism, leading to dopamine depletion and subsequent induction of oxidative stress. This redox imbalance critically contributed to accelerated aging phenotypes. Importantly, both genetic (comt-4 RNAi) and pharmacological (opicapone) interventions restored dopamine levels, alleviated oxidative stress, and reversed DCOIT-induced aging deficits. Our study established the comt-4/dopamine/oxidative stress axis as a central mechanism in DCOIT toxicity, suggesting dopamine modulation as a potential countermeasure against environmental toxicant-induced aging.

Comparison of posterior cellular bonegraft options for single-level lumbar spinal fusion: a randomized trial.

BACKGROUND: Iliac bone autograft (IBG) is osteoinductive/osteogenic/osteoconductive but requires an additional harvesting procedure with known morbidities. Bone morphogenic protein (BMP) is osteoinductive and effective in obtaining fusion but is used off label for posterior fusion, has multiple side effects, and is expensive. Stem cell bone products, both auto- and allograft are attractive osteoinductive alternatives that avoid morbidity related to the graft donor site and may have a better safety profile than BMP. Morcelized allograft bone is osteoconductive but not osteoinductive or osteogenic. PURPOSE: Evaluate and compare the effectiveness of 6 types of viable or osteoinductive bone graft material in obtaining a solid posterior spinal fusion (PSF) for single level anterior/posterior lumbar spinal fusion. The bone grafts were IBG, BMP, autogenous stem cells (MSC) from concentrated bone marrow aspirate (BMA), allograft MSC from bone marrow, adipose tissue, or amniotic fluid, combined with inert cancellous allograft (Allo). STUDY DESIGN/SETTING: Prospective, single-blinded randomized study of 6 cohorts and inert historical control. PATIENT SAMPLE: Elective anterior-posterior lumbar spinal fusion of 175 patients. OUTCOME MEASURES: Assessments included pre and postoperative back and leg pain (VAS) scores, pain drawing, disability (ODI) scores, pain medication usage, and 1-year postoperative thin-cut CT scans (read by blinded radiologists). METHODS: Patients who were surgical candidates for a 1-level anterior/posterior lumbar fusion were randomized to 1 of 6 types of posterior bone graft alternatives: IBG, BMP, BMA, allograft MSC derived from bone marrow combined with morcelized Allo (cAlloBone), adipose derived MSC combined with morcelized Allo (cAlloFat), or amnion derived MSC combined with morcelized Allo (cAlloAm). Historical Allo patients served as a negative control group. Each group (n 27) had prospective outcomes and were followed for a minimum of 2 years. Fusion rate and outcomes were compared and referenced to Allo group. RESULTS: All but 5 patients had a solid ASF. The posterior fusion rates were 98% for IBG, 94% for BMP, 85% for BMA, 67% for cAlloBone, 64% for cAlloFat, 62% for cAlloAm, and 50% for Allo. Outcomes were significantly improved for all measures for all groups and there was no difference between groups except cAlloFat had slightly greater improvement in back pain in the 7-12 month follow-up period. BMP was the most expensive graft material; cellular allografts had a high-cost relative to fusion rate. CONCLUSIONS: For single level ASF/PSF, the PSF fusion rate was significantly greater for IBG and BMP followed by BMA. Various allograft MSC bone graft options resulted in lower fusion rates but may be greater than Allo. Outcomes were uniformly improved regardless of the type of graft used or the fusion status of the posterior fusion as long as the interbody fusion was solid. If bone graft cost savings is a consideration for PSF, then IBG has the greatest radiographic value, and Allo the greatest clinical value as long as the anterior interbody fusion is solid.

Histoplasmosis in children: emerging insights and evolving guidelines.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review provides an update on the epidemiology, risk factors, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management recommendations incorporating recommendations from recent publications including the Infectious Disease Society of America guidelines for the management of pulmonary and disseminated histoplasmosis. RECENT FINDINGS: Updates to the epidemiology of histoplasmosis indicate a broader geographic range than historically defined. Updated guidelines do not recommend routine treatment for asymptomatic, mild and moderate pulmonary histoplasmosis although itraconazole can be offered for immunocompromised children or for prolonged or worsening symptoms. Liposomal amphotericin B is recommended as initial treatment for severe histoplasmosis syndromes (severe pulmonary and disseminated histoplasmosis). Fibrosing mediastinitis, a late complication of histoplasmosis is treated with stenting of vessels and bronchi. Recent studies demonstrate that rituximab (anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody) may stop progression or lead to regression of progressive fibrosis. SUMMARY: Histoplasmosis has manifold manifestations, many of which are self-limited and do not require treatment. Severe histoplasmosis and its complications should be treated with liposomal amphotericin B followed by itraconazole. Clinical trials are needed to assess the efficacy of rituximab for the treatment of fibrosing mediastinitis.
