This article reviews recent publications evaluating the current epidemiology of urologic trauma. The authors briefly explain databases that have been recently used to study this patient population and then discuss each genitourinary organ individually, utilizing the most relevant and up-to-date information published for each one. The conclusion of the article briefly discusses possible future research and development areas pertaining to the topic.

Mental disorders and excess mortality: a systematic review protocol.
BMJ Open
March 2025
Deakin University, Institute for Mental and Physical Health and Clinical Translation, School of Medicine, Geelong, Victoria, Australia.
Background: There is developing evidence of excess mortality among people with mental disorders. This protocol presents the methodology to undertake a systematic review to definitively examine the current evidence on the risk of all-cause and cause-specific mortality in people with mental disorders (mood, anxiety, substance use, eating, personality and psychotic disorders) compared with populations without mental disorders in broadly representative studies of general populations worldwide. In addition, we seek to understand whether the excess mortality has increased further over time, and if the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated the excess mortality in people with mental disorders.

Artificial intelligence (AI) holds great promise for analyzing complex data to advance patient care and disease research. For example, AI interpretation of retinal imaging may enable the development of noninvasive retinal biomarkers of systemic disease. One potential limitation, however, is government regulation regarding retinal imaging as biometric data, which has been recently under debate in the United States.

J Cardiol
March 2025
Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Graduate School of Medicine, Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan.
Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a major health problem worldwide. There are scarce data on the recent temporal trends of patients with VTE after the widespread use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs).
Methods And Results: In a Japanese nationwide hospital administrative database, we identified 20,217 patients with VTE from 2017 to 2023, and evaluated their temporal trends in management strategies and clinical outcomes.
Polygenic risk scores for rheumatoid arthritis and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and associations with RA, interstitial lung abnormalities, and quantitative interstitial abnormalities among smokers.
Semin Arthritis Rheum
March 2025
Division of Rheumatology, Inflammation, and Immunity, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA, USA; Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA. Electronic address:
Objective: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) facilitate construction of polygenic risk scores (PRSs) for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). We investigated associations of RA and IPF PRSs with RA and high-resolution chest computed tomography (HRCT) parenchymal lung abnormalities.
Methods: Participants in COPDGene, a prospective multicenter cohort of current/former smokers, had chest HRCT at study enrollment.
Nonfatal hospital-treated pediatric and adolescent burn cases in the United States: A 2019-2022 National Electronic Injury Surveillance System analysis.
Burns
March 2025
Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation, 4061 Powder Mill Road, Suite 350, Beltsville, MD 20705, USA; Curtin University School of Public Health, Kent St, Bentley, WA 6102, Australia.
Burn injuries experienced by infants, children, and adolescents are prevalent and costly-psychologically, physically, and economically. Previous studies have acknowledged the dangers of pediatric burns; however, the literature was missing a thorough portrayal of the contemporary pediatric and adolescent burns landscape in the United States. The current study used 2019-2022 National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS) data to describe nonfatal pediatric and adolescent burn cases, including prevalence, burn type, body parts affected, product involvement, and differences by age and sex.
