Prestigiacomo Signed Declaration of Dr. Defina Signed Declaration of Ivan Mikolaenko, M.D. Petitioner's Objection FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE McMATH HEARING POSTPONED TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL MEDICAL EVIDENCE Christopher Dolan, McMath family attorney, has asked Alameda County Superior Court Judge Emillo Grillo to postpone tomorrow’s hearing regarding Jahi McMath’s status as brain dead so that the team of international brain death experts presented by McMath’s attorneys can have time to read and react to a new statement issued by Dr. Paul Fischer, the physician who originally testified as to Jahi’s brain death. This comes following yesterday’s re-appointment of Dr. Fischer as a court consultant by Judge Grillo. McMath’s attorneys have objected to Dr. Fischer’s appointment saying that Fischer had a conflict of interest, and a legal bias, as it is his original determination which is being examined in light of the new facts. No decision on the objection to Dr. Fischer has been issued. Fischer, immediately upon re-appointment by the court issued a letter supporting his earlier determination stating that the fact that the brain had not liquified, Jahi had started her period (menarche), the evidence that there was cerebral blood flow, the recorded movements of Jahi’s body in response to commands, and the presence of electrical activity in her brain as recorded by EEG had no effect on his opinion.

    Liu et al. Chinese Neurosurgical Journal (2015) 1:17 DOI 10.1186/s41016-015-0017-0 RESEARCH Open Access Neurosurgical publications in China: an analysis of the web of science database Weiming Liu*, Deling Li, Ming Ni, Wang Jia, Weiqing Wan, Jie Tang and Guijun Jia Abstract Background: Neurosurgery in China has made great progress. The aim of this study was to analyze neurosurgical publications by Chinese authors using the Web of Science database as a way to illustrate the current state of neurosurgery in China. Methods: We searched the Web of Science core database for articles containing “neurosurg*” with or without an author address in “China” to obtain the set of neurosurgical publications in China and worldwide. We then extracted data from the search results to obtain information such as document type, countries/territories, organizations, publication year, title and research area. Then, we analyzed the search results of articles (document type) to generate a citation report. We identified publications by Chinese neurosurgeons that were cited more than 100 times. Results: A total of 165,365 neurosurgical publications were identified. Among them, 10,770 were published by Chinese neurosurgeons. Chinese neurosurgical publications have increased year by year, accounting for 2 % of neurosurgical publications before 2010 and rising to 13 % from 2010 to the present. The most frequent journals for Chinese neurosurgeons differ from the most frequent journals worldwide. We identified 34 Chinese organizations that published more than 100 publications. We also identified 19 studies written by Chinese neurosurgeons that were cited more than 100 times. Basic research represents a large proportion of Chinese publications in this area, while clinical research remains a weak area.

  • Randomized Study Comparing 3D Virtual Reality and Conventional 2D On-Screen Teaching of Cerebrovascular Anatomy
    NEUROSURGICAL FOCUS Neurosurg Focus 51 (2):E18, 2021 Randomized study comparing 3D virtual reality and conventional 2D on-screen teaching of cerebrovascular anatomy *Ladina Greuter, MD,1 Adriana De Rosa,2 Philippe Cattin, PhD,3 Davide Marco Croci, MD,1,4 Jehuda Soleman, MD,1,2 and Raphael Guzman, MD1–3 1Department of Neurosurgery, University Hospital of Basel; 2Faculty of Medicine and 3Department of Biomedical Engineering, University of Basel, Switzerland; and 4Department of Neurosurgery, Clinical Neurosciences Center, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah OBJECTIVE Performing aneurysmal clipping requires years of training to successfully understand the 3D neurovascu- lar anatomy. This training has traditionally been obtained by learning through observation. Currently, with fewer operative aneurysm clippings, stricter work-hour regulations, and increased patient safety concerns, novel teaching methods are required for young neurosurgeons. Virtual-reality (VR) models offer the opportunity to either train a specific surgical skill or prepare for an individual surgery. With this study, the authors aimed to compare the spatial orientation between traditional 2D images and 3D VR models in neurosurgical residents or medical students. METHODS Residents and students were each randomly assigned to describe 4 aneurysm cases, which could be either 2D images or 3D VR models. The time to aneurysm detection as well as a spatial anatomical description was assessed via an online questionnaire and compared between the groups. The aneurysm cases were 10 selected patient cases treated at the authors’ institution. RESULTS Overall, the time to aneurysm detection was shorter in the 3D VR model compared to 2D images, with a trend toward statistical significance (25.77 ± 37.26 vs 45.70 ± 51.94 seconds, p = 0.052).

  • A Holistic Investigation of Global Outputs of Covid-19 Publications in Neurology and Neurosurgery
    DOI: 10.14744/ejmi.2020.36601 EJMI 2020;4(4):506–512 Research Article A Holistic Investigation of Global Outputs of Covid-19 Publications in Neurology and Neurosurgery Murat Kiraz Department of Neurosurgery, Hitit University, Faculty of Medicine, Corum, Turkey Abstract Objectives: Neurological and neurosurgical management of the global COVID-19 crisis could only be possible by ex- tending the current literature and rapidly delivering this current data to clinicians. The purpose of this study is to ana- lyze the global outputs of COVID-19 in the field of neuroscience through bibliometric methods and provide a guide to researchers who would like to contribute to the literature by conducting research in this field. Methods: Bibliometric analysis was performed for all the publications in Web of Science database in Neurosciences Neurology (Clinical Neurology, Neurosciences, Neuroimaging) research areas and included the “COVID-19”, “coronavi- rus”, “2019-nCoV”, “n-CoV”, and “SARS-CoV-2” keywords in their title. Results: The literature review included 13785 publications in all research areas. Of these publications, 459 were pub- lished in the field of Neurosciences Neurology. The top 5 countries that produced the highest number of publications were the USA (139, 30.2%), Italy (110, 23.9%), UK (57, 12.2%), China (49, 10.6%), and Germany (43, 9.3%). The journals that produced the highest number of publications were Brain Behavior and Immunity, Journal of Neurology, Neurologi- cal Sciences, Nature Human Behavior and Acta Neurochirurgica. The most commonly investigated topics were stroke, encephalitis, depression, mental health, stress, neurosurgery, Parkinson’s disease, Guillain-Barre syndrome, multiple sclerosis, anxiety, and headache.

Bakken Medical Visible Heart Laboratory Department of Pediatrics Devices Center University of Minnesota University of Minnesota University of Minnesota Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA BACKGROUND Advances in technology are making virtual reality (VR) available BLUE RED for many different interests. Inexpensive commercially available Twin Twin hardware can be setup at home [1,2], while corporations are using VR to design mechanical systems and train pilots [3,4]. However, limited application is seen in the medical field. Most medical VR simulation focus on medical training, by incorporating anatomical models, physics models, haptics, and visualization to recreate surgical procedures [4-6]. These simulations teach foundational technical skills and show value for preoperative planning and image-guided surgery [4,7]. Simulations provide opportunities to develop surgical plans [7], and practice teamwork skills [8].
