We analysed the quality of aesthetic medicine guidelines.Methods: A systematic review with a prospective registration protocol (https://osf.io/8pdyv) of databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, Scopus, CDSR), web pages of scientific societies and grey literature was done from inception to February 2023 and without language restrictions. Quality was evaluated using AGREE II (% of the maximum score), RIGHT (% of the total 35 items) and a shared decision making (SDM) quality assessment tool (31 items score) individually and in duplicate, respectively.Results: Six (86%) guidelines were classified as not recommended; one (14%) was recommended with modifications, and all were classified as poorly reported (7/7; 100%). The median overall quality was 27% (IQR: 26-43) and 26% (IQR 15-36) for AGREE II and RIGHT, respectively. No document used these tools for its development. SDM appeared superfluity in almost all of the guidelines explored.Conclusions: Aesthetic medicine and surgical guidelines had low quality and must be improved. There is a wide range of improvement, especially in applicability, reporting of evidence, recommendations, conflict of interest, quality control and SDM. These guidelines require a rigorous methodology based on systematic reviews to ensure quality evidence-based recommendations.","PeriodicalId":50667,"journal":{"name":"Colombia Medica","volume":"55 2","pages":"e2016257"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11637547/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142820059","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The shapes of the transverse colon were analyzed using artificial intelligence.Methods: The study was conducted as a two- and three-dimensional examination of CT colonography images of people between 40 and 80 years old, which were obtained retrospectively. An artificial intelligence algorithm (YOLOv8) was used for shape detection on 3D colon images.Results: 160 people with a mean age of 89 men and 71 women included in the study were 57.79±8.55 and 56.55±6.60, respectively, and there was no statistically significant difference (p= 0.24). The total colon length was 166.11±25.07 cm for men and 158.73±21.92 cm for women, with no significant difference between groups (p=0.12). As a result of the training of the model Precision, Recall, and Mean Average Precision (mAP) were found to be 0.8578, 0.7940, and 0.9142, respectively.Conclusion: The study highlights the importance of understanding the type and morphology of the large intestine for accurate interpretation of CT colonography results and effective clinical management of patients with suspected large intestine abnormalities. Furthermore, this study showed that 88.57% of the images in the test data set were detected correctly and that AI can play an important role in colon typing.","PeriodicalId":50667,"journal":{"name":"Colombia Medica","volume":"55 2","pages":"e2005944"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11573345/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142677510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Presence of additional R' wave or notching/splitting of S wave in two contiguous ECG leads was defined as fragmented QRS (fQRS) and patients were divided into two groups according to fQRS status on ECG.

We included research with adult patients diagnosed with posttraumatic wrist injuries who used proprioceptive rehabilitation. Pain, functionality, strength, joint mobility ranges, and edema were evaluated.Results: After removing duplicates and applying the exclusion criteria, a total of 123 articles were found, which left six articles, including 125 patients. Rehabilitation protocols based on proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and using sensorimotor tools that promote wrist recovery have been generated. In addition, other approaches have been established, such as motor imagery, which generates a work of identification and organization of movement, improving pain and manual function. However, longer follow-ups, standardization of the instruments used during proprioceptive intervention, and increasing the observed population are needed to generate a recommendation for early intervention and cost-benefit estimates.Conclusion: Proprioceptive rehabilitation has demonstrated benefits in the recovery of the lower limb and hip or back.
