The correlation between trainee gender and operative autonomy during trauma and orthopaedic training in Ireland and the UK.

Aims: The aim of this study was to explore differences in operative autonomy by trainee gender during orthopaedic training in Ireland and the UK, and to explore differences in operative autonomy by trainee gender with regard to training year, case complexity, index procedures, and speciality area.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study examined all operations recorded by orthopaedic trainees in Ireland and the UK between July 2012 and July 2022. The primary outcome was operative autonomy, which was defined as the trainee performing the case without the supervising trainer scrubbed.

Thickened Gallbladder Wall, Abdominal Pain, and Fever: A Rare Presentation of Dengue in Rural Australia.

Dengue is endemic in tropical and subtropical regions, affecting millions of people worldwide. While it is not endemic to Australia, outbreaks can occur in Queensland each year. The rarity of dengue in other regions of Australia may pose a diagnostic challenge when patients present at hospitals.

Diagnosis and evaluation of cervical ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament on Zero-Echo Time Magnetic Resonance Imaging: an illustrative case series.

Purpose: Computed tomography (CT) scans are widely used clinically in the diagnosis of ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL). Conventionally acquired magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is limited by insufficient signal intensity within bone tissue. Osseus conspicuity may be enhanced by applying sequences with "CT-like" bone contrast zero-echo time (ZTE) MRI.

A histopathological guide for the social spider Stegodyphus dumicola.

The study of invertebrate pathology relies on histopathological tools to define visible internal structures and processes in understudied taxa like spiders. Histopathology involves the infiltration of tissues and organ structures with wax or resin, allowing for the visualisation of cellular anatomy and morphological structure, which can lead to the identification of abnormalities (e.g.

Active back exosuits demonstrate positive usability perceptions that drive intention-to-use in the field among logistic warehouse workers.

Back exosuits offer the potential to reduce occupational back injuries but require in-field acceptance and use to realize this potential. For this study, 146 employees trialed an active back exosuit in the field for 4 h, completing an acceptance usability survey. Comparing the 80% of employees willing to continue wearing this device (N = 117) to those who were not (N = 29) revealed that employees willing to wear this device for a longer-term study generally were more likely to perceive this back exosuit to be effective (helpful) and compatible (minimally disruptive) to their everyday work.
