    Abstract Objectives: The study aimed to identify geographic and gender disparities in the quality, academic impact, and media attention of the top-cited articles related to stem cell-related surgical research.
    Methods: The following data was extracted for the top 200 most-cited articles (2011-2021): article- (including citation metrics and country of publication), journal- (including impact factor), and author-level (including corresponding author gender) variables. Article Altmetric Attention Score (AAS), a measure of mass mainstream and social media attention, was also recorded.
    Results: Most articles originated from high-income countries (HICs: 175 [87.5%]), with only 7 (3.5%) from lower-middle-income countries. Articles from non-HIC were published in journals with significantly lower impact factors (6.66 [3.75-9.46] vs. 23.2 [7.3-32.5]; p < 0.001) and AAS (7 [3-14.5] vs. 30 [11-83]; p < 0.001). Only 44 (22%) of articles were authored by a female corresponding author, with these having significantly fewer citations than those authored by a male (289 [250-400] vs. 331.5 [267.25-451.25]; p=0.031).
    Conclusions: Even amongst the top-cited literature, our results demonstrate worrying disparities in the geographic origins of stem cell-related surgical research. The vast majority originates from HICs, with these articles being published in better journals and receiving greater media attention. We also identified significant gender disparities, with female representation being concerningly low and female-authored articles receiving significantly fewer citations.

    Abstract Purpose: Patients undergoing medical procedures often experience pain and anxiety. These periprocedural outcomes can be overcome by providing a distraction using virtual reality (VR), decreasing their perception. VR has proved effective in reducing pediatric pain and anxiety; however, limited studies have confirmed its effectiveness in adults. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis on the effectiveness of VR, as opposed to standard care, in reducing periprocedural pain and anxiety in adults.
    Methods: A systematic search of randomized controlled trials was conducted using the databases of MEDLINE, Cochrane CENTRAL, and Scopus. Trials involving patients (> 18 years) undergoing elective medical procedures conducted with or without local anesthesia and participating in VR therapy were included. Primary outcomes were pre-procedural anxiety, post-procedural anxiety, and intra-procedural pain. Pre-procedural pain, post-procedural pain, and intra-procedural anxiety were secondary outcomes.
    Results: Data from 10 studies shortlisted for inclusion revealed no significant association between the use of VR and lower pre-procedural anxiety compared to standard care (p > 0.05) (SMD = -0.02, 95% CI = -0.18 - 0.14, P = 0.81) but demonstrated that the use of VR was significantly associated with a reduction in post-procedural anxiety (SMD = -0.73, 95% CI = -1.08 - -0.39, P < 0.0001), intra-procedural pain (SMD = -0.61, 95% CI = -1.18 - -0.04, P = 0.04), and post-procedural pain (SMD = -0.25, 95% CI = -0.44 - -0.05, P = 0.01).
    Conclusion: The use of VR caused a significant reduction in post-procedural anxiety, intra-procedural pain, and post-procedural pain in adults undergoing medical procedures, although the findings were insignificant concerning pre-procedural anxiety.
