The use of glucocorticoids in the treatment of medical disorders can lead to rapid bone loss and increased risk of fragility fracture. Updated clinical guidelines are needed that accommodate recent advances in fracture risk assessment and new pharmacological interventions to reduce fracture risk. This document serves as an appendix to the 2012 IOF-ECTS guidelines for the management of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis.

Compact Arterial Monitoring Device Use in Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA): A Simple Validation Study in Swine.

Article Synopsis
- - Hemorrhage is the main cause of preventable death in trauma situations, leading to military and civilian advancements in medical practices, particularly through the use of tourniquets to manage extremity bleeding and save lives.
- - While tourniquets have significantly decreased deaths from bleeding in military settings, noncompressible hemorrhage still poses a major risk, especially before patients receive definitive medical care.
- - The study explores using a small, disposable pressure monitor during resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) to enhance blood pressure monitoring, facilitate better resuscitation practices, and reduce the need for blood products in extreme environments.
What Happens Post-Malone? An Investigation of Long-Term Postoperative Management of Antegrade Continence Enemas.

Article Synopsis
- The study examines the use of antegrade continence enemas (ACE) in children with medically refractory fecal incontinence and constipation, focusing on patient perceptions and the potential to discontinue the use of the associated appendicostomy/cecostomy tube.
- Data was gathered from 165 patients who underwent ACE procedures between 2012 and 2021, with 82 completing a follow-up survey revealing satisfaction rates and reasons for discontinuing flushes.
- Findings indicate a high satisfaction rate (76.8% very satisfied), with 21.8% of patients able to stop using flushes for various reasons, and a strong recommendation rate for ACE among respondents.

Background: Haemorrhage is a leading cause of preventable mortality in high-income countries and emergency management presents unique challenges in the prehospital setting. The study aimed to determine incidence and characteristics of fatalities from prehospital haemorrhage in Sweden.
Methods: A nationwide retrospective cohort study 2012-2021 was conducted using data from the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare.
Circulating tryptophan-kynurenine pathway metabolites are associated with all-cause mortality among patients with stage I-III colorectal cancer.
Int J Cancer

Department of General, Visceral and Transplantation Surgery, Heidelberg University Hospital, Heidelberg, Germany.
Alterations within the tryptophan-kynurenine metabolic pathway have been linked to the etiology of colorectal cancer (CRC), but the relevance of this pathway for prognostic outcomes in CRC patients needs further elucidation. Therefore, we investigated associations between circulating concentrations of tryptophan-kynurenine pathway metabolites and all-cause mortality among CRC patients. This study utilizes data from 2102 stage I-III CRC patients participating in six prospective cohorts involved in the international FOCUS Consortium.
