Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Decompressive craniectomy plus best medical treatment versus best medical treatment alone for spontaneous severe deep supratentorial intracerebral haemorrhage: a randomised controlled clinical trial.
It is unknown whether decompressive craniectomy improves clinical outcome for people with spontaneous severe deep intracerebral haemorrhage. The SWITCH trial aimed to assess whether decompressive craniectomy plus best medical treatment in these patients improves outcome at 6 months compared to best medical treatment alone. ⋯ Swiss National Science Foundation, Swiss Heart Foundation, Inselspital Stiftung, and Boehringer Ingelheim.

Randomized Controlled TrialUltrasound-guided distal glossopharyngeal nerve block for post-tonsillectomy pain relief in adults: a prospective randomized study.
We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the novel distal approach of ultrasound (US)-guided glossopharyngeal nerve (GPN) block at the pharyngeal wall for enhancing the quality of analgesia in patients undergoing tonsillectomy. ⋯ In patients having tonsillectomy, pre-emptive application of US-guided distal GPN block at the pharyngeal wall enhanced the quality of analgesia and decreased the need for rescue analgesics with no major adverse effects.

Assessment of Laparoscopic Indocyanine Green Tracer-Guided Lymphadenectomy After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Locally Advanced Gastric Cancer: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
To assess the effectiveness of indocyanine green (ICG)-guided lymph node (LN) dissection during laparoscopic radical gastrectomy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC). ⋯ ICG can effectively improve the quality of lymphadenectomy in patients with LAGC who underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy after NAC.
