Case of Spinal Osteoblastoma in Elderly: Is It Really a Young Patient's Disease?
No full textBackground: Osteoblastoma is a benign bone-forming tumor, sometimes locally invasive, that may involve any bone. The highest incidence is between 20 and 30 years of age, and there are no cases described in the elderly. Methods: We report a case of an elderly patient with a lesion in the lumbar spine in which osteoblastoma diagnosis was made. Conclusions: Osteoblastoma is a rare tumor older than 50 years of age, but it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of bone lesions of the spine in adulthood and in the elderly, to avoid a delay in the treatment

No full textGoing Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Spine surgery after the COVID-19 emergency: An algorithm for management of elective surgical cases
No full textIntroduction. During the COVID-19 pandemic emergency, all non-urgent surgical procedures including elective spine surgery were performed. Now many countries have passed over the epidemic peak and the time to organize re-opening of non-essential activities has come. After the emergency phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, the viral outbreak is supposed to reduce but will not reasonably disappear until a vaccine is available. Resuming elective spine surgery while ensuring safety for patients and healthcare workers has become an issue of critical importance. We propose a simple algorithm with the aim to help worldwide spine surgeons in management of elective spine surgery cases after the COVID-19 emergency ensuring safety for patients and healthcare workers. Methods. An expert panel composed by Spine Surgeons, Neurosurgeons, Anesthesiologists and Intensivists with direct experience in COVID-19 management developed an algorithm for management of elective spine surgery based on evidence-based indications. The algorithm has been used for management of hospital admissions of undelayable spine surgery cases during the COVID-19 emergency period. Data regarding COVID-19 nosocomial transmission on patients and healthcare workers have been retrospectively reviewed and reported. Results. Hospital admissions of 159 patients have been managed according to the proposed algorithm. Since the application of the protocol, we have not reported COVID-19 nosocomial transmission in our department. Conclusions. According to our preliminary results, we think that the proposed algorithm may successfully help management of spinal elective surgical patients in the post-COVID-19 emergency era, avoiding unnecessary risks for patients and healthcare workers
