    Abstract Platelets play a critical role in blood clotting and the development of arterial blockages. Antiplatelet therapy is vital for preventing recurring events in conditions like coronary artery disease and strokes. However, there is a lack of comprehensive guidelines for using antiplatelet agents in elective neurosurgery. Continuing therapy during surgery poses a bleeding risk, while discontinuing it before surgery increases the risk of thrombosis. Discontinuation is recommended in neurosurgical settings but carries an elevated risk of ischemic events. Conversely, maintaining antithrombotic therapy may increase bleeding and the need for transfusions, leading to a poor prognosis. Artificial intelligence (AI) holds promise in making difficult decisions regarding antiplatelet therapy. This paper discusses current clinical guidelines and supported regimens for antiplatelet therapy in neurosurgery. It also explores methodologies like P2Y12 reaction units (PRU) monitoring and thromboelastography (TEG) mapping for monitoring the use of antiplatelet regimens as well as their limitations. The paper explores the potential of AI to overcome such limitations associated with PRU monitoring and TEG mapping. It highlights various studies in the field of cardiovascular and neuroendovascular surgery which use AI prediction models to forecast adverse outcomes such as ischemia and bleeding, offering assistance in decision-making for antiplatelet therapy. In addition, the use of AI to improve patient adherence to antiplatelet regimens is also considered. Overall, this research aims to provide insights into the use of antiplatelet therapy and the role of AI in optimizing treatment plans in neurosurgical settings.

    Abstract Background: Practitioners report a lack of knowledge and confidence in treating autistic children, resulting in unmet healthcare needs. The Extension of Community Healthcare Outcomes (ECHO) Autism model addresses this through discussion of participant-generated cases, helping physicians provide best-practice care through co-created recommendations. Recommendations stemming from ECHO cases have yet to be characterized and may help guide the future care of autistic children. Our objective was to characterize and categorize case discussion recommendations from Project ECHO Ontario Autism to better identify gaps in clinician knowledge.
    Methods: We conducted a summative content analysis of all ECHO Ontario Autism case recommendations to identify categories of recommendations and their frequencies. Two researchers independently coded recommendations from five ECHO cases to develop the coding guide. They then each independently coded all remaining cases and recommendations from three cycles of ECHO held between October 2018 to July 2021, meeting regularly with the ECHO lead to consolidate the codes. A recommendation could be identified with more than one code if it pertained to multiple aspects of autism care. Categories from the various codes were identified and the frequency of each code was calculated.
    Results: Of the 422 recommendations stemming from 62 cases, we identified 55 codes across ten broad categories. Categories included accessing community resources (
    Conclusion: This is the first time that recommendations from ECHO Autism have been characterized and grouped into categories. Our results show that advice for autism identification and management spans many different facets of community-based care. Specific attention should be paid to providing continued access to education about autism, streamlining referrals to allied health providers, and a greater focus on patient- and family-centered care. Physicians should have continued access to autism education to help fill knowledge gaps and to facilitate families' service navigation.

    Abstract Background: Significant swelling after rhinoplasty can temporarily obscure results and lead to distress for patients and surgeons. We recently developed three dimensional (3D)-printed nasal splints that aim to protect the nose and limit edema by applying gentle compression. This prospective, randomized study compares postoperative nasal edema in patients being treated with traditional taping versus 3D-printed splints.
    Methods: Patients undergoing primary rhinoplasty (2019-2020) were randomized into two groups: taping versus 3D-printed splinting. For 12 weeks, patients either applied steri-strips to the dorsum and tip, or used 3D-printed splints, which were based on nasal simulations. The percentage change in volume (cm
    Results: Nasal taping (n = 34) demonstrated a volume reduction of 4.8%, 9.9%, 10.0%, 10.3%, and 10.6% (compared with baseline) at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year, respectively. In contrast, the resolution of swelling with 3D splints (n = 36) was 5.0%, 8.6%, 11.0%, 14.9%, and 15.1% at the same time points. Inter-group comparison showed that 3D splints led to significantly less edema of the total nose at 6 months and 1 year (
    Conclusions: 3D-printed splints after rhinoplasty leads to a significant reduction of edema, most noticeable at 6 months and 1 year. This study suggests that customized 3D-printed splints offer an effective clinical alternative to traditional taping to reduce postoperative edema after rhinoplasty.

    Abstract Background: Alar flare reduction (AFR) is a widely used technique in rhinoplasty. Although the impact of AFR on the alar base has been well studied, its effect on the surrounding tissues is largely unknown. This study aims to elucidate the potential effect of AFR on the overall nasal and perinasal anatomy.
    Methods: AFR was performed on cadavers ( n = 7) with sequential crescent-shaped alar excisions of 2, 4, and 6 mm. Two- and three-dimensional photographs were obtained at baseline and subsequent intervals. Analysis was performed with Adobe Photoshop and Vectra. Standardized landmarks were placed at the nasal tip point (NTP) and alar base point to quantify NTP vector distances, NTP surface distances, and alar crease angle.
    Results: The surface and vector distances between the NTP and alar base point decreased for increasing AFR intervals. AFR created a surface decrease of 1.90 ± 1.60, 3.54 ± 1.85, and 4.91 ± 1.89 mm, respectively. AFR created a vector decrease of 1.50 ± 1.14, 2.83 ± 1.37, and 3.97 ± 1.38 mm, respectively. NTP projection decreased by 0.54 ± 0.31 mm for 6-mm excision. AFR led to cheek elevation of 0.87 ± 0.70, 1.25 ± 0.60, and 1.96 ± 0.48 mm, respectively. This alar crease elevation blunted the transition between the cheek and upper lip skin at the level of the alar rim with the angle of this transition increasing 26.62 ± 12.78 degrees from baseline to 6 mm.
    Conclusions: Three-dimensional analysis demonstrates the influence of AFR on the alar base and surrounding perinasal contour. AFR results in nasal tip deprojection, alar crease elevation, and alar flare width narrowing. Further investigation into the impact of modifying the alar base on surrounding structures is warranted.

    Abstract Introduction: As computer simulation for rhinoplasty continues to rise, the technology's utility extends beyond increasing patient conversion. Virtual simulation of the surgical result can assist with surgical planning and intraoperative decision-making. 3D printed anatomic models or surgical guides based on 3D images may help align surgeons with their original surgical plan. This study aims to evaluate the utility of 3D printed surgical guides as an intraoperative tool to help establish dorsal height and tip position.
    Methods: Patients undergoing rhinoplasty had preoperative virtual 3D surgical simulations performed. Simulations were used to create a 3D printed nasal kits containing ceramic models of the preoperative nose and simulated nose, sagittal contour guide, and customized postoperative nasal splint. Nasal guides were sterilized for continual intraoperative assessment of profile contour (i.e., dorsal height and tip position). Postoperative 3D images (1-3 months post-op) were then compared to preoperative simulations. The difference between z coordinates and y coordinates determined the difference in projection and rotation, respectively.
    Results: Fifteen patients met inclusion criteria for this study. With the use of 3D printed surgical guides, the final tip position was on average of 0.8±0.7mm from simulated projection and 0.3±0.2mm from simulated rotation. Similarly, projection for the cartilaginous and bony dorsum was within 1.0±0.8 and 0.8±0.7mm of the simulation, respectively.
    Conclusion: Virtual simulation is useful in defining aesthetic goals preoperatively, but the potential clinical value extends beyond this. 3D printed rhinoplasty guides extend the simulation's utility to decision-making intraoperatively. This technology offers a novel medium for anatomic reference, which may improve adherence to desired aesthetic goals.
