Department of Family Medicine, University of Texas Medical Branch John Sealy Hospital, Galveston, Texas, USA.
Article Synopsis
- - This study investigates the relationship between Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and various outcomes like opioid use and chronic pain in burn patients, highlighting that those with PTSD generally face more complications after their injuries.
- - A comprehensive analysis using the TriNetX database compared burn patients with PTSD to those without, factoring in demographic and injury severity differences to assess outcomes across different severity levels.
- - Results showed a higher rate of opioid use and other adverse outcomes in burn patients with PTSD, with the incidence of PTSD varying based on the extent of burns, indicating a clear link between PTSD and poorer recovery experiences.
Current understanding of the impact of United States military airborne hazards and burn pit exposures on respiratory health.
Part Fibre Toxicol
October 2024
Minneapolis Veterans Affairs Health Care System, Minneapolis, MN, USA.
Article Synopsis
- U.S. troops deployed to the Middle East were exposed to toxic airborne hazards and burn pits, which release harmful emissions containing particulate matter, toxic gases, and heavy metals.
- Ongoing research shows these exposures can lead to significant and lasting health issues, particularly concerning lung health, though data on long-term consequences is still limited.
- The 2022 PACT Act aims to enhance benefits for affected Veterans, mandates toxic exposure screenings, and promotes further research and education on the health impacts of these toxic exposures.

Institute for Global Food Security, School of Biological Sciences, Queen's University of Belfast, Belfast, BT9 5DL, Northern Ireland, UK.
Food consumption play a crucial role in human life, yet conventional food production and consumption patterns can be detrimental to the environment. Thus, research and development has been directed towards alternative proteins, with edible insects being promising sources. Edible insects have been recognised for their sustainable benefits providing protein, with less emission of greenhouse gas, land and water usage compared to sources, such as beef, chicken, and dairy products.

Introduction: Children spend most of their time at school and participate in many activities that have the potential for causing injury. This study aims to describe the nationwide epidemiology of pediatric trauma sustained in school settings in the United States.
Methods: In the 3-y analysis of 2017-2019 American College of Surgeons-Trauma Quality Program, all pediatric trauma patients (≤18 y) injured in a school setting were included and stratified based on place of injury, into elementary, middle, and high school (HS) groups.
