Background: Gentrification is associated with redistribution of shootings but impacts on access to care are unknown. We evaluate the association of gentrification with shooting rates, transport times, and survival in Boston.
Methods: Gentrification was defined using income, housing, and educational attainment from the 2010-2020 census.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to analyze and compare gait biomechanics in individuals who underwent unilateral anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) with their uninjured limbs and matched uninjured controls over a 12-month period.
- Results showed that the ACLR limb exhibited significantly reduced knee extension and flexion moments, as well as altered knee angles throughout the stance phase, indicating impaired biomechanics compared to both the uninvolved limb and control subjects.
- Although gait symmetry improved over time after surgery, both the ACLR limb and the uninvolved limb continued to show abnormal biomechanics compared to uninjured controls, suggesting persistent issues following ACL injury and reconstruction.
Introduction: Patients with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) often show disturbed bone metabolism, assessed using three-phase bone scintigraphy (TPBS). However, current methods lack automation and standardisation. Bone serum markers have been proposed as biomarkers, but their utility is unclear.

Behavioral economic models of substance use and addiction emphasize that deficits in access to substance-free sources of reward increase substance reinforcing value and risk for addiction. The current study used an alcohol demand curve approach to test the hypothesis that various indices of reward deprivation would be associated with elevated alcohol reinforcing efficacy.
