We recognize that physicians undertaking industry sponsored research should be protected and not be liable to perverse incentives. We conclude that mitigating bias in industry sponsored research is a multistep process and needs a multifaceted approach. The main beneficiary of research should be patients and as such a collective effort from medical professionals, health care institutions, journals and industry should approach research, and publications with that in mind.
Multicenter retrospective observational study.

To determine the differences between C3 laminectomy (LN) and C3 laminoplasty (LP) in cervical LP.

Interlaminar bony fusion after cervical LP is reported to be related to a decrease in postoperative range of motion (ROM) or neurological disorder. However, it remains uncertain whether C3 LN affects patient-reported outcomes, especially after double-door LPs. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effect of C3 LN compared with C3 LP in cervical double-door LP.

Using our prospective database, consecutive patients with degenerative cervical myelopathy undergoing cervical double-door LP in 7 hospitals between April 2017 and May 2018 were enrolled. Before and 1 year after the surgeries, we collected the details of patient background data, operative factors, radiologic findings such as C2-C7 ROM angle and C2-C3 interlaminar bony fusion, the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score, postoperative satisfaction, neck pain, and patient-reported outcomes such as Short Form-12 (SF-12), EuroQol 5 Dimension (EQ-5D), Neck Disability Index (NDI), and the Core Outcome Measures Index (COMI) for the neck.

In all, 152 patients were enrolled, including 97 undergoing C3 LP and 55 undergoing C3 LN. There were no significant differences in patient background data, complications, and operative factors. C2-C3 interlaminar bony fusion occurred more often in the C3 LP group (22.6% vs. 5.7%). There were also no differences in the C2-C7 angle, C2-C7 ROM angle, the JOA score, patient satisfaction, neck pain, SF-12, EQ-5D, NDI, and COMI between the groups.

C2-C3 bony fusion after cervical double-door LP occurred more often in the C3 LP group than in the C3 LN group. CQ211 purchase C3 LN resulted in similar outcomes in complication rate, radiographic outcomes, and clinical outcomes compared with those of C3 LP.

Level III.Anxiety disorders are common comorbidities of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and conversely, ADHD is prevalent among anxious youths. A variety of treatments, both psychopharmacological and nonpsychopharmacological, are used to manage combined ADHD/anxiety disorder. This article aims to review the literature on the treatment of ADHD with comorbid anxiety disorders, and make evidence-based recommendations for clinical practice. In most cases, when ADHD is the primary condition, stimulants are the first-line of treatment, frequently resulting not only in improvement in ADHD symptoms but also alleviating the symptoms of the comorbid anxiety disorder. Stimulant treatment is relatively safe and well-tolerated in ADHD with comorbid anxiety disorder. When the stimulant administration does not attenuate the severity of the comorbid anxiety disorder, a treatment that targets specifically the anxiety disorder should be added. This recommendation, however, might be challenged by the impressive efficacy of atomoxetine for both the ADHD and anxiety disorder symptoms. Adjunctive cognitive-behavior therapy for anxiety disorder symptoms is strongly recommended and is considered superior to medication alone. Other options include adding pharmacological treatment for the anxiety symptoms. In moderate and severe cases of comorbid Ads, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors can be added to the stimulants, with the required caution.To date, only a few studies compared some long-acting injectables (LAIs) antipsychotics showing similar symptom improvement, relapse rates and adherence to treatment. We evaluated the use of LAIs antipsychotics [aripiprazole-1-month (A1M); paliperidone-1-month and 3-month (PP1M and PP3M) and biweekly (2w)-LAIs] and their corresponding oral formulations through (1) the number of hospital re-admissions, (2) the number of documented suicidal behaviour/attempts and (3) the use of concomitant benzodiazepines, oral antipsychotics and biperiden. A total of 277 patients, ≥18 years old, were included if were treated with the corresponding oral or LAI antipsychotic during at least 12 months and were previously diagnosed with schizophrenia. Our results showed that LAIs associated significantly lower suicidal behaviour, reduced the number of hospital admissions, lower diazepam and haloperidol equivalents and mean daily dose of biperiden intake versus oral antipsychotics. Furthermore, significant differences were found between LAIs. Specifically, PP3M was associated to lower hospital admissions versus A1M; PP1M and PP3M lower doses of diazepam equivalents versus 2w-LAIs and finally, PP1M lower antipsychotic intake versus 2w-LAIs. In conclusion, LAIs improved clinical outcomes by reducing the need for concomitant treatments and hospital admissions over oral antipsychotics. PP1M and PP3M showed better outcomes versus A1M and biweekly LAIs.
Triphasic waves (TWs) have been associated with a host of medication toxicities, and cefepime has emerged recently as a frequently encountered offending agent. This investigation aims to evaluate cefepime-induced encephalopathy and to report the associated clinical, EEG expression with TWs, and the radiologic findings.

A retrospective multicenter observational study examining adult patients with cefepime-induced encephalopathy with generalized periodic discharges on either routine or continuous EEG between January 2014 and January 2020. Clinical, electrographic, and radiologic data were collected. Patients in whom cefepime was not the sole causative factor for their encephalopathy were excluded.

Twenty-seven patients with cefepime-induced encephalopathy marked by generalized periodic discharges with triphasic morphology were identified at both centers, whereas no patients were presenting with generalized periodic discharges without TWs. Patients had a median age of 63 years (interquartile range, 56-73).
