Summary: The study finds that the impact of the Super Bowl on hotel room rentals is heterogeneous across host cities, with less actual gain in rentals than expected. The benefits are not always in areas close to the stadiums, and most of the revenue increase comes from higher room rates, raising concerns about economic leakages from regional economies.

Summary: The prevalence of same-day discharge (SDD) surgeries is increasing for total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA). SDD-THA is growing at a faster rate than SDD-TKA. Patients who undergo SDD surgeries are generally younger and have fewer comorbidities. SDD-TKA has slightly higher odds of complications requiring readmission than non-SDD-TKA.

Summary: This study analyzed game-related statistics from the 2019 AFCON soccer tournament and found that winning teams performed better in terms of shots, shots on target, and shots from counter-attacks. Variables such as shots on target, shots, fouls, total passes, and yellow cards had the highest discriminatory power. These findings provide valuable guidance for coaches to improve their team's chances of winning the AFCON championship.

Summary: This study analyzed the activity of volleyball teams and players during matches and found that winning teams cover a smaller distance in action. The results also showed that the longest covered distance occurred in the first set and sets 4 and 5 when teams lost the previous set, while the smallest distance was covered by teams that lost set 5 after winning the previous set.

Summary: The study found that same-day discharge for eligible patients undergoing total joint arthroplasties does not increase the risk of returning to the emergency department within 30 days. This approach can improve patient comfort and shorten hospital stays.

Summary: This study investigated the survival rates of total hip arthroplasty with the same femoral stem and the predictive factors for revision of stemmed metal-on-metal THA. The results showed that stemmed MoM THA has a very low survival rate, and the use of MoM bearings is a risk factor for revision.

Summary: On February 13th, 2022, Super Bowl LVI took place at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles and was viewed by 208 million people. During halftime, Compton, a stigmatized area in Los Angeles County, was showcased for the first time in Super Bowl history. This research aims to uncover the scenographic strategies used by Es Devlin's studio to capture the unique atmosphere and spatial dynamics of Compton on the stage through comparative analysis and mapping.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the cytokine/chemokine response in infants with neonatal encephalopathy during the first week of life and explore its association with long-term outcomes. The results suggest that RANTES and MCP-1 levels during the first week of life may provide potential targets for future therapies among neonates with encephalopathy.

Summary: The study found that higher blanket temperatures during therapeutic hypothermia may be associated with increased risk of death or disability in infants with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) at 18-22 months. Particularly, having more than 8 consecutive blanket temperatures above 33.5 degrees Celsius in the first 24 hours is linked to a significantly higher risk.

Summary: This study aims to assess if maternal betamethasone administration at 34-35 weeks can accelerate neonatal amplitude integrated EEG (aEEG) maturation. The results showed that betamethasone-exposed infants had significant changes in lower border voltage and span of electrical activity. However, further investigation is needed to understand the broader span.

Summary: This study aims to develop an online estimator that accurately predicts the severity of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) or death in preterm infants using readily-available demographic and clinical data. The results show that the respiratory support mode and birth weight can predict the occurrence and severity of BPD with reasonable accuracy over time. This online estimator can aid in clinical prognostication, future research, and quality improvement in BPD prevention.

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the variability in continuation of antiseizure medication (ASM) at discharge among infants with hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) and seizures, and to assess if continuation of ASM at discharge is associated with death or disability. The results showed that infants continued on ASM at discharge had a higher risk of death or moderate-to-severe disability. The proportion of infants continued on ASM varied among different centres.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of the GRACE risk score in acute pulmonary embolism (PE) patients for 30-day mortality and the need for thrombolytic treatment. The study found that the GRACE risk score, along with the PESI score, were independent risk factors associated with 30-day mortality and the need for thrombolytic treatment. The GRACE risk score showed high sensitivity and specificity in predicting mortality, and its combination with the PESI score helped define high-risk PE patients and predict poor prognosis.

Summary: Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is commonly used to evaluate isolated tricuspid regurgitation (TR), but there is limited research comparing its quantification with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In this study, a novel TTE algorithm was developed to identify severe TR based on TTE parameters. The algorithm had a higher accuracy than the current guidelines' criteria in detecting severe TR by MRI.

Summary: This article presents a case of a patient with known situs inversus who underwent cardiac catheterization and was found to have chronic total occlusion in the right coronary artery. Situs inversus is a rare congenital abnormality characterized by the inverted position of chest and abdominal organs. Cardiac catheterization is uncommon in patients with this particular abnormality, highlighting the importance of customizing techniques to engage coronary arteries and optimize guide support for percutaneous coronary intervention if needed.

Summary: This study evaluated the angiogenic capacity of adipose tissue in patients undergoing cardiac surgeries and found that patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) had reduced angiogenic capacity in their pericardial adipose tissue. Gene expression analysis revealed upregulated expression of the anti-angiogenic gene TSP-1 in CAD patients, with no significant differences in other angiogenic factors. Additionally, inhibiting TSP-1 expression significantly improved angiogenic deficiency in CAD patients.

Summary: The current guidelines recommend prophylactic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) for patients with symptomatic heart failure (HF) and low left ventricular ejection fraction. However, not all patients will benefit from ICD treatment. This study evaluated the feasibility of using the MADIT-II-based Risk Stratification Score (MRSS) to predict the survival benefit of prophylactic ICDs in patients with HF. The results showed that different risk subgroups had varying levels of ICD survival benefit.

Summary: Using latent class analysis (LCA), the study identified clinical, demographic, and social subphenotypes in ASCVD population and assessed the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality across different socioclinical classes. The results showed that the younger, female, non-Hispanic Black or Hispanic individuals with a high burden of co-morbidities and unfavorable social determinants of health had the highest risk of mortality in the identified latent classes.

Summary: This study evaluated the rates and causes of 30-day readmissions after discharge for heart failure (HF) as a primary and secondary diagnosis. The findings indicate that efforts to reduce readmission rates should include patients with secondary HF diagnosis, and surveillance should extend to 2 weeks postdischarge to identify at-risk patients.

Summary: This study aimed to examine the relation between reverse septal curvature (RSC) and nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The study found that patients with RSC were younger and had a higher incidence of NSVT, and RSC was identified as a strong independent risk factor for NSVT.
