Efficacy of Acupuncture Combined with Patient-Controlled Analgesia in the Treatment of Acute Pain after Back Surgery: A Meta-Analysis by Daling Deng, Feng Xu, Yafeng Wang, Lulin Ma, Tianhao Zhang, Wenjing Zhao, Xiangdong Chen

“…Furthermore, the use of acupuncture with PCA reduced the incidence of postoperative PCA-related total complications (odds ratio = 0.44, 95% CI = 0.23 to 0.85, P=0.01), but may not reduce the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (odds ratio =0.82 , 95% CI =0.49 to 1.36, P=0.44). Conclusion. This systematic review found that acupuncture with PCA relieved acute pain after back surgery more effectively than PCA alone and could reduce opioid use and the incidence of postoperative PCA-related total complications…”

A Spectral Transfer Function to Harmonize Existing Soil Spectral Libraries Generated by Different Protocols by Nicolas Francos, Daniela Heller-Pearlshtien, José A. M. Demattê, Bas Van Wesemael, Robert Milewski, Sabine Chabrillat, Nikolaos Tziolas, Adrian Sanz Diaz, María Julia Yagüe Ballester, Asa Gholizadeh, Eyal Ben-Dor

“…In recent years, several techniques for harmonization have been proposed, among which the internal soil standard (ISS) protocol is the most largely applied and has demonstrated its capacity to rectify systematic effects during spectral measurements. Here, we postulate that a spectral transfer function (TF) can be extracted between existing (old) SSLs if a subset of samples from two (or more) different SSLs are remeasured using the ISS protocol. …”
