Abstract
Cell based therapies are increasingly used and results of bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) show encouraging short- to middle term results, superior to hyaluronic acid and platelet rich plasma (PRP). Most studies describe patients with mild to moderate arthritis and results of patients with KL III and IV osteoarthritis of the knee are limited to short term evaluations. Hence, the aim of this prospective study was to investigate the mid-term outcome of BMAC injections in patients with severe osteoarthritis of the knee. The BMAC was retrieved from the iliac crest as previously published with the "reorientation technique" from the iliac crest in supine position in analgosedation and injected into the patients' osteoarthritic knees. Patients were followed-up for 4 years. WOMAC, IKDC, SF 36 and walking distance were measured in a total of 37 participants. There was an improvement of IKDC and WOMAC from the first year onwards and a significant improvement beginning from year 2 up to the mid-term follow-up: IKDC increased significantly from 56 ± 12 (range 34-81) to 73 ± 13 (range 45-100), p < 0.001. WOMAC decreased significantly from 40 ± 23 (range 6-96) to 18 ± 18 (range 0-67), p < 0.001. 35 of 37 knees improved regarding IKDC and WOMAC score from the first to the last follow-up. Not a single protheses had to be implanted. Elaborate statistical analysis was done to exclude covariates and confounders (age, time, BMI,…). In summary, this is the first study on BMAC injections into 37 osteoarthritic knees with a 4-year follow up showing significant improvements in IKDC and WOMAC scores, and with a 95% success rate and significant improvement in walking distance.Clinical relevance Describes the 4-year outcome of BMAC injections for knees with severe osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Insomnia is a serious and widespread public health problem, but is often undetected and patients do not receive needed treatment. Insomnia is often comorbid with other diseases and conditions, such as arterial hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, pain syndromes, anxiety and depressive disorders, etc. A separate problem is drug-induced insomnia, when patients develop symptoms due to other diseases treatments. Insomnia has a negative effect on the prognosis of comorbid diseases, including an increased risk of death, more severe disease, and decreased quality of life. The presence of sleep disorders makes it difficult to effectively treat the underlying disease, so clinical guidelines draft for the evaluation and treatment of insomnia in multimorbid patients is proposed. Diagnostic methods are reviewed and recommendations are given for the treatment of acute and chronic insomnia and features of the treatment of insomnia in multimorbid patients. A clinical algorithm has been proposed to determine treatment tactics in multimorbid patients.

Ko CC, Hung KC, Chang YP, Liu CC, Cheng WJ, Wu JY, Li YY, Lin TC, Sun CK. Association of general anesthesia exposure with risk of postoperative delirium in patients receiving transcatheter aortic valve replacement: a meta-analysis and systematic review. Sci Rep 2023; 13:16241. [PMID: 37758810 PMCID: PMC10533830 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-43548-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this meta-analysis was to assess the association of general anesthesia (GA) exposure with the risk of POD in this patient population. Databases including Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane library, and Google Scholar were searched from inception to December 2022. Analysis of 17 studies published between 2015 and 2021 involving 10,678 individuals revealed an association of GA exposure with an elevated risk of POD [odd ratio (OR) = 1.846, 95% CI 1.329 to 2.563, p = 0.0003, I2 = 68.4%, 10,678 patients]. Subgroup analysis of the diagnostic methods also demonstrated a positive correlation between GA exposure and POD risk when validated methods were used for POD diagnosis (OR = 2.199, 95% CI 1.46 to 3.31, p = 0.0002). Meta-regression analyses showed no significant impact of age, male proportion, and sample size on the correlation between GA and the risk of POD. The reported overall incidence of POD from the included studies regardless of the type of anesthesia was between 0.8 and 27%. Our meta-analysis showed a pooled incidence of 10.3% (95% CI 7% to 15%). This meta-analysis suggested an association of general anesthesia with an elevated risk of postoperative delirium, implying the necessity of implementing appropriate prophylactic strategies against this complication when general anesthesia was used in this clinical setting.
