    Abstract (1) Background: Pediatric spinal surgery is a blood-intensive procedure. In order to introduce a rational blood management program, identifying the risk factors for transfusions is mandatory. (2) Methods: Data from the national database covering the period from January 2015 to July 2017 were analyzed. The available data included the demographics, characteristics of the surgeries performed, length of stay, and in-house mortality. (3) Results: The total number of patients used for the analysis was 2302. The primary diagnosis was a spinal deformity (88.75%). Most fusions were long, with four levels or more (89.57%). A total of 938 patients received a transfusion; thus, the transfusion rate was 40.75%. The present study identified several risk factors; the most significant was a number of levels fused greater than 4 (RR 5.51; CI95% 3.72-8.15;

    Abstract Purpose: The present study aimed to identify the clinical predictive factors for worsened spinal deformity (SD) following surgical resection via posterior approach for primary intramedullary tumors.
    Methods: A systematic search was performed using PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases to extract potential references. Observational studies reporting predictive factors for worsened SD following surgical resection via posterior approach for primary intramedullary tumors were included. The odds ratio (OR) was calculated for dichotomous parameters.
    Results: Four retrospective cohort studies were included in the meta-analysis. They were comprised of two groups of patients; those who developed SD (n = 87) and those who did not (n = 227). For patients with IMSCTs, age under 25 years as well as age under 13 years were the demographic variables associated with postoperative SD (odds ratio [OR] 3.92; p = 0.0002 and OR 4.22; p = 0.003). In both the fusion and the non-fusion subgroups, preoperative spinal deformity strongly predicted postoperative SD (OR 11.94; p < 0.001), with the risk highly elevated among the non-fusion patients (OR 24.64; p < 0.0002). Thoracolumbar junction involvement was also found to be a predictor of postoperative SD for patients with IMSCT (OR 2.89; p = 0.02).
    Conclusion: This study highlights the importance of considering age, preoperative spinal deformity, and thoracolumbar junction involvement as predictors of postoperative spinal deformity following surgical resection for IMSCT. These findings may provide guidance for the management of these patients, including the development of preoperative planning strategies and the selection of the most appropriate surgical approach for high-risk patients.

    Abstract Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia, the most common cause of supraventricular tachycardia in the global population and the most common arrhythmia requiring treatment in an emergency department.
    Objectives: To systematically review recent literature and quantify the correlation between the choice of pharmacological cardioversion (PCV) drug and the national or international guidelines.
    Material and methods: A systematic review was performed in accordance with the PRISMA statement methodology. The PubMed search engine was used to search for articles regardless of type or language and published in the last 6 years (May 2014-May 2020). In addition, we searched for AF guidelines and recommendations published online by cardiology and emergency medicine societies.
    Results: The search strategy returned a total of 2615 abstracts. A total of 2598 full texts were screened; 2540 full texts were excluded with reasons and 58 articles from 32 countries were included in the analysis. In 17 of the 58 articles (29%), we noted discrepancies with the AF guidelines, specifically regarding the PCV drug used, the patients' comorbidities and the contraindications associated with the PCV drug. The most common clinical situation for the use of a contraindicated drug was when ibutilide was administered to patients with heart failure. The analysis did not reveal any statistically significant correlations, although the correlation between the sample size and guideline adherence was close to statistical significance (p < 0.06).
    Conclusion: Our systematic analysis revealed substantial non-adherence to AF treatment guidelines.

    Abstract Background: The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has greatly affected the treatment of most medical conditions. In particular, the treatment of seriously ill patients had to be adjusted due to the limited availability of in-hospital procedures.
    Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of COVID-19-related changes on neuro-oncological surgeries in the Polish medical system.
    Material and methods: Data from the period of 2010-2020 were collected from National Health Insurance database for 2 diagnosis-related groups: A11 (complex intracranial procedures) and A12 (large intracranial procedures). The total number of procedures and diagnoses per year, trend changes and changes in procedures grouped by medical type were analyzed, including resections/biopsies, malignant/stable (nonmalignant) lesions, elective/acute procedures, and length of stay.
    Results: Mean yearly numbers of 7177 (standard deviation (SD) = 760) procedures and 5934 (SD = 1185) diagnoses were recorded. Both numbers were growing up to 9.1% per year until 2018. From 2018, a 3.1% decrease in the number of procedures was observed, with a significantly larger decrease of 10.5% observed in 2020 (p < 0.001). The number of diagnoses decreased in 2019 by 2.7%, and by 9.2% in 2020 (p = 0.706), with a statistically significant change in the annual growth rate (p = 0.044). The number of resections decreased by 11.5% in 2020 (p = 0.204), with a significant change in the annual growth rate (p < 0.001). The number of biopsies decreased by 2.5% in 2020 (p = 0.018), with the annual decrement in 2019/2020 also being significant (p = 0.004). Decreases were observed in 2019 and 2020 for the number of malignant (0.5% and 6.3%, respectively) and nonmalignant (5.4% and 12.9%, respectively) tumors (p = 0.233 and p = 0.682 for absolute values, and p = 0.008 and p = 0.004 for the annual growth rates, respectively). The number of acute procedures in 2020 further decreased by 9.8% from 5.5% decrease in 2019 (p = 0.004), and the number of elective procedures decreased by 11.8% (p = 0.009). The annual growth rates for both acute and elective procedures were statistically significant (p < 0.001 and p < 0.001).
    Conclusions: The decrease in the number of neuro-oncological surgeries appeared to be much lower than the 20% decrease observed for general oncological surgeries in Poland during the COVID-19 pandemic. This seems to have resulted from postponing the treatment of less critical cases (i.e., nonmalignant and elective) and focusing on the treatment of the most precarious patients.
