The aim of this study, a retrospective database analysis, was to assess the impact of baseline cannabis use disorder (CUD) on perioperative complication outcomes in patients undergoing primary 1- to 2-level anterior cervical diskectomy and fusion (ACDF) surgery. ⋯ These findings indicate that isolated baseline CUD is associated with an increased risk of hospital readmission at 90 days postoperative and cervical spine reoperation at 1 year after primary 1- to 2-level ACDF surgery with a decrease in overall medical complications, cardiac arrhythmias, and acute renal failure.

We aim to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Hungarian version of the patient-reported outcomes measurement information system (PROMIS)-29 profile domains among patients with chronic low back pain. ⋯ We present data supporting the validity and reliability of the Hungarian PROMIS-29 profile short forms for patients with low back pain. This instrument will be useful for research and clinical applications in spine care.

The exhaustive information regarding the types of trigeminal pore (TP) or trigeminal impression (TI), internal acoustic opening (IAO), and related surgical approaches is lacking in the literature. Therefore, this study is performed to further elucidate the types of TP or TI, IAO, and the relationships with critical surgical landmarks in the skull base. ⋯ Investigating the relationship of TI and IAO with relevant structures suggests that surgical approaches involving the TP and IAO indicated that surgical approaches considering the TI and IAO variations may be used in the development of surgical processes and primary surgical interventions.

We aimed to construct 3 predictive models, including a clinical model, a radiomics model, and a combined model, to forecast the discharge prognosis of patients with intracerebral hemorrhage on admission. ⋯ The combined model demonstrates reliability and efficacy in predicting the discharge prognosis of ICH, enabling physicians to perform individualized risk assessments, and make optimal choices about patients with ICH.
