Objectives: In this study, we aim to evaluate the current trends in pediatric fractures related to trampolines.
Methods: The National Electronic Injury Surveillance System was queried for fractures occurring between 2008 and 2017 in individuals aged 0 to 17 years. Sex, anatomic region, locale of injury, admission status, and year of injury were recorded. Incidence rates were calculated by using national census data. Poisson regression analysis was used to test for changes in fracture incidence across the time period. Logistic regression analyses were used to test temporal trends in the odds of a fracture occurring at a place of recreation or sport and a patient with a fracture being admitted.
Results: Between 2008 and 2017, there was a 3.85% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.51-7.30) increase in the incidence of trampoline-related pediatric fractures per person-year. The incidence of pediatric trampoline-related fractures increased from 35.3 per 100 000 person-years in 2008 to 53.0 per 100 000 person-years in 2017. There was no change in the odds of a trampoline fracture requiring hospitalization (odds ratio per 1 year: 1.02; 95% CI: 0 6-1.07; = .5431). There was a significant increase in the odds of a fracture occurring at a place of recreation or sport (odds ratio per year: 1.32; 95% CI: 1.21-1.43; < .0001).
Conclusions: Between 2008 and 2017, there was a significant increase in the national incidence of trampoline-related fractures. We identified a significant increase in the proportion of trampoline fractures that occurred at a place of recreation or sport. Advocacy campaigns should consider these sites in their prevention efforts.

Background: We previously published a systematic review evaluating retention in care after antiretroviral therapy treatment initiation among adults in low- and middle-income countries. We estimated retention at 36 months to be at 74% for studies published from 2008-2013. This review evaluates retention after the implementation of Universal Test and Treat in 2015.

The present study aimed to investigate the causal relationships among cognitive impairment, psychopathology, and real-life functioning in a large sample of people with schizophrenia, using a data-driven causal discovery procedure based on partial ancestral graphs (PAGs). This method may provide additional insights for the identification of potential therapeutic targets to promote recovery in people with chronic schizophrenia. State-of-the-art instruments were used to assess the study variables.

This paper examines whether the expansion of Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), which increases access to contraceptives to low-income childless women and allows them more autonomy to determine the timing of their pregnancies and births, is associated with lower abortion rates during the period 2008-2017. Using state-level data from the Guttmacher Institute and employing a difference-in-differences method, we find that Medicaid expansion is associated with a meaningful reduction in the abortion rate among women ages 18-24, presumably through increased use of contraceptives among low-income young adults. Our estimates imply that Medicaid expansion is associated with a relative decrease in the abortion rate among this age group, approximately 1-2 per 1000 women.

The Yangtze River-Dongting Lake link has gotten a lot of attention as a because of the Three Gorges Project. However, the hydrological dynamic process and future direction of the river-lake interaction in the context of sediment reduction are yet unknown. Based on Dongting Lake Basin runoff and sediment data from 1961 to 2020, as well as field monitoring data of turbidity and flow velocity from Yichang to Chenglingji section of the Yangtze River, this paper examines the runoff and sediment variation law and hydrological dynamic process of Chenglingji, the only outlet connecting Dongting Lake to the Yangtze River, and reveals the development trend of the river-lake relationship.

Introduction: Evidence suggests that gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with subsequent cardiovascular disease; however, it is unclear what impact changes in screening and diagnostic criteria have had on the association of GDM with long-term outcomes such as cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study was to determine the association between GDM and subsequent cardiovascular disease during a period of rising gestational diabetes diagnosis in England. Specifically, associations were compared before and after 2008, when national guidelines supporting risk factor-based screening were introduced.
