Article Synopsis
- This study explored how cannabis use affects sleep problems in young adults, particularly considering their mental health status.
- Conducted in Southern California with 1,926 participants aged 20-23, the research analyzed cannabis use frequency and its correlation to sleep quality over time.
- Results indicated that frequent cannabis use (≥20 days/month) was linked to worse sleep outcomes, especially for those without anxiety or depression, and highlighted the complex interactions between mental health and sleep issues.
COVID-19 Deaths and Minority Health Social Vulnerability, in the U.S., January 1, 2020 through June 24, 2023.

Article Synopsis
- Health disparities leading to higher COVID-19 death rates are caused by social and structural factors, significantly affecting lower socioeconomic groups and socially vulnerable communities.
- The study analyzed data from over a million COVID-19 deaths in the U.S., using the Minority Health Social Vulnerability Index (MHSVI) to categorize counties based on their social vulnerability.
- Results showed that higher vulnerability correlated with increased death rates, except for those counties with better healthcare access, which saw lower death rates.
Computer-assisted simulated workplace-based assessment in surgery: application of the universal framework of intraoperative performance within a mixed-reality simulation.
BMJ Surg Interv Health Technol
January 2023
Objectives: Workplace-based assessment (WBA) is a key requirement of competency-based medical education in postgraduate surgical education. Although simulated workplace-based assessment (SWBA) has been proposed to complement WBA, it is insufficiently adopted in surgical education. In particular, approaches to criterion-referenced and automated assessment of intraoperative surgical competency in contextualized SWBA settings are missing.

Purpose: To firstly examine the pain levels during distraction osteogenesis (DO) with lengthening nails (LN) in a large sample.
Methods: A total of 168 cases underwent DO of the tibia or femur with five different models of LN. Under a standardized medical regime, daily pain levels were noted as nominal rating scale (NRS) score (0-10) during the distraction phase.
Novel approach to estimate distraction forces in distraction osteogenesis and application in the human lower leg.
J Mech Behav Biomed Mater
April 2022
Purpose: In distraction osteogenesis (DO) of long bones, new bone tissue is distracted to lengthen limbs or reconstruct bone defects. However, mechanical boundary conditions in human application such as arising forces are mainly based on limited empirical data. Our aim was the numerical determination of the callus distraction force (CDF) and the total distraction force (TDF) during DO in the tibia of adults to advance the understanding of callus tissue behavior and optimize DO procedures.
