Trauma centers use trauma registries to collect information on injured patients they receive. The information is used for evaluation of care rendered, research, system and process improvement, and evaluation of injury prevention programs. Identification of patients qualifying for inclusion in registries can be problematic. Searching for those who meet inclusion criteria is often time consuming and inefficient. This has changed at a Salt Lake City trauma center, with an application designed to automate the process of identifying trauma patients. This program uses natural language processing and decision support technologies and is in daily use by the trauma team registry personnel.

Determination of adequate bony resection margins in inflammatory jaw pathologies using SPECT-CT in primary mandibular reconstruction with virtually planned vascularized bone flaps.
Clin Oral Investig
January 2025
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, University Hospital RWTH Aachen, Pauwelsstraße 30, D-52074, Aachen, Germany.
Objectives: In advanced stages of osteoradionecrosis, medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw, and osteomyelitis, a resection of sections of the mandible may be unavoidable. The determination of adequate bony resection margins is a fundamental problem because bony resection margins cannot be secured intraoperatively. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT-CT) is more accurate than conventional imaging techniques in detecting inflammatory jaw pathologies.

Objective: Global per capita alcohol consumption is increasing, posing significant socioeconomic and medical challenges also due to alcohol-related traumatic injuries but also its biological effects. Trauma as a leading cause of death in young adults, is often associated with an increased risk of complications, such as sepsis and multiple organ failure, due to immunological imbalances. Regulatory T cells play a crucial role in maintaining immune homeostasis by regulating the inflammatory response.
