AI Article Synopsis
- Complex trauma refers to the repeated exposure to traumatic experiences during early childhood, particularly within caregiving relationships, impacting various areas of a child's development.
- Attachment disorders, such as reactive attachment disorder and disinhibited social engagement disorder, are frequently diagnosed in children from the welfare system, which raises concerns due to the stigma and lack of reliable assessment tools.
- The article reviews a statewide assessment program for these youth, highlighting both its strengths and areas for improvement, and includes a case study that illustrates the program's compliance with best practices in diagnosing and providing recommendations.
Article Abstract
is defined as repeated or prolonged exposure to traumatic events perpetrated within the caregiving relationship during early childhood. Diagnostic decision making is challenging for this vulnerable population, given the widespread impact of these experiences across domains of developmental, social, emotional, and behavioral functioning. One domain, attachment, receives considerable attention for youth within the child welfare system, leading to frequent diagnosis of attachment disorders (i.e., reactive attachment disorder and disinhibited social engagement disorder). This is concerning, given the rarity, level of misunderstanding, associated stigma, and lack of psychometrically sound measures to assess attachment disorders. This article provides an overview of complex trauma and its effects, with a focus on attachment concerns. It subsequently describes one statewide assessment program for youth in the child welfare system with a history of experiencing complex trauma, elaborating on strengths and areas of future growth. A case study demonstrates the program's adherence to established guidelines and the resulting diagnoses and recommendations. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved).

Fracture-related infection (FRI) is a serious orthopaedic complication and its diagnosis, particularly in the upper extremity, is difficult and poorly defined in current literature. An international consensus definition of FRI was published in 2018, and our scoping review aims to investigate FRI diagnostic tools reported in the primary literature and their biostatistical utility. A review of articles generated from the PubMed/NCBI search term "fracture-related infection" was undertaken using PRISMA methodology.

With the development of deep learning methods for human pose detection, kinematics can be quantified based on a video and this study aimed to investigate whether a relatively simple 2D multibody model could predict relevant dynamic biomarkers based on the kinematics using inverse dynamics. Six participants performed ten vertical and forward single leg hops while the kinematics and the ground reaction force "GRF" were captured using an optoelectronic system coupled with a force platform.

Objective: From the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a proliferation of anti-Asian racism. In addition to being personal targets of racism, members of the Asian American community have also been vicariously exposed to repeated news and social media stories about anti-Asian racism. Emerging research suggests that vicarious exposure to racism during the pandemic is associated with decreased well-being, although mechanisms of action are not yet clear.

: Elbow contracture is a common complication post-elbow trauma, the biomechanical environment after anterior capsule injury was complex. This study aimed to use a finite element model to investigate the biomechanical environment within elbow capsule and its surrounding tissues at various stages after anterior capsule injury. : A finite element model of the elbow joint, incorporating muscle activation behavior, was developed to simulate elbow flexion under normal condition (no injury) and at 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks following anterior joint capsular injury.

Fractures of the thoracic (Th) and lumbar (L) vertebrae are among the most frequent fracture entities in Germany and particularly affect the thoracolumbar junction (TLJ; Th11-L2). Based on expert recommendations and consensus meetings, the thoracolumbar AOSpine injury score was established for patients with healthy bone and the osteoporotic fracture (OF) score for geriatric patients with the respective classifications for treatment decisions. In both cohorts, the treatment decision is based on the fracture morphology, neurological status and patient-specific contextual factors.
