Article Synopsis
- Individuals of color and gender-diverse populations face higher rates of mental health issues, particularly depression and anxiety, compared to their White and cisgender counterparts.
- A study analyzed health records of nearly 30,000 patients, categorizing them by race and gender identity to assess mental health symptom severity and diagnosis likelihood.
- Results showed that transgender individuals had increased symptom severity, while nonbinary individuals consistently faced high symptom levels across races, with notably high rates of clinical depression and anxiety among Black nonbinary and transgender adults.
Importance: Opioid use disorder continues to be a national crisis, contributing to substantial morbidity and mortality. Medication is the only evidence-based treatment for opioid use disorder; however, improving clinical outcomes may require augmenting it with psychosocial interventions, such as contingency management (CM), specifically, smartphone app-based CM.
Objective: To evaluate whether augmenting medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) with app-based CM is associated with fewer days of opioid use at the end of treatment and greater retention than treatment with MOUD only.
Introduction: Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a common complication following distal radius fractures that is difficult to diagnose and can lead to permanent disability. While various proposed prophylaxis and treatment modalities exist, high-quality evidence guiding practice is limited. This survey of Orthopaedic Trauma Association (OTA) and Canadian Orthopaedic Association (COA) members was conducted with the primary aim of assessing practice patterns in distal radius fractures complicated with CRPS.
