A randomized clinical trial found that cefepime increased neurological dysfunction in adults hospitalized with acute infection, while piperacillin-tazobactam did not. The study involved 2,511 participants and suggested that cefepime may be associated with adverse outcomes.
Researchers found that players with visible signs of concussion experienced greater head rotational velocities. Shoulder-to-head impacts were nearly four times more common than board-to-head impacts, highlighting the need for improved rink design and protective equipment to reduce any contact to the head.
