Consensus Guideline for Care of Patients in the Prehospital and Aerospace Settings with Exposures to Hydrazine and Hydrazine Derivatives.

Objectives: Hydrazine (HZ) and Hydrazine Derivative (HZ-D) exposures pose health risks to people in industrial and aerospace settings. Several recent systematic reviews and case series have highlighted common clinical presentations and management strategies. Given the low frequency at which HZ and HZ-D exposures occur, a strong evidence base on which to develop an evidence-based guideline does not exist at this time.

Do US quitsites present information related to providing services for LGBTQ individuals? An audit study.

Introduction: Most US quitlines have quitsites and websites designated to promote their services. Quitsites have the potential to encourage LGBTQ individuals to utilize quitline services by explicitly mentioning the provision of LGBTQ-competent services. The present study audited quitsites to determine the presence of information regarding services for LGBTQ individuals.

Characterizing supplement use and dietary behaviors in adults with acquired brain injury.

Background: Acquired brain injury (ABI) can result in persistent symptoms and lasting disability. Supplements are becoming more popular in patients with chronic symptoms; however, little is known about supplementation and dietary behaviors after ABI.

Methods: In this cross-sectional observational study, questionnaires were collected from 211 adults with ABI presenting to outpatient brain injury clinics.

Probing the toxicity of hydrothermal carbonised wastes on soil biota: Effect of reaction temperature and feedstock.

Hydrothermal carbonised wastes (hydrochars) can have toxic effects on soil biota, but factors influencing toxin formation in hydrochar, and subsequent toxicity to soil organisms, have not been elucidated. This study investigated the toxicity of hydrochars on soil biota, with a focus on earthworm (Eisenia fetida) avoidance, microbial metabolic quotient (qCO) and microbial activities. Two reaction temperatures (200 °C and 260 °C) and different feedstocks (biosolids, chicken manure and rice straw) were used.

Sublingual Sufentanil Tablet for Analgesia in Emergency Medical Services and Search and Rescue Agencies.

Objectives: Pain management in the potentially austere search and rescue (SAR) and emergency medical services (EMS) environments can be challenging. Intravenous (IV) and intramuscular (IM) routes of administration may be less practical. This study assesses the efficacy and safety of the sublingual sufentanil tablet (SST) in prehospital settings and hypothesizes that its use will reduce pain while maintaining a reasonable safety profile.
