Control of Haemorrhage in Orthopaedic Trauma.

This paper aims to outline current practices and examine promising new advancements in the modern management of haemorrhage in orthopaedic trauma. Many prehospital and perioperative haemorrhage control strategies and techniques have been available to clinicians for multiple decades, yet our understanding and utilisation of these practices continues to be refined and optimised. There is a particular focus in this article on issues related to resuscitation and coagulation in trauma.

Comparative Genomic Analysis of Bacterial Data in BV-BRC: An Example Exploring Antimicrobial Resistance.

As genomic and related data continue to expand, research biologists are often hampered by the computational hurdles required to analyze their data. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) established the Bioinformatics Resource Centers (BRC) to assist researchers with their analysis of genome sequence and other omics-related data. Recently, the PAThosystems Resource Integration Center (PATRIC), the Influenza Research Database (IRD), and the Virus Pathogen Database and Analysis Resource (ViPR) BRCs merged to form the Bacterial and Viral Bioinformatics Resource Center (BV-BRC) at https://www.

Extending the new era of genomic testing into pregnancy management: A proposed model for Australian prenatal services.

Background: Trio exome sequencing can be used to investigate congenital abnormalities identified on pregnancy ultrasound, but its use in an Australian context has not been assessed.

Aims: Assess clinical outcomes and changes in management after expedited genomic testing in the prenatal period to guide the development of a model for widespread implementation.

Materials And Methods: Forty-three prospective referrals for whole exome sequencing, including 40 trios (parents and pregnancy), two singletons and one duo were assessed in a tertiary hospital setting with access to a state-wide pathology laboratory.
