Background: Reducing unnecessary emergency department (ED) visits following joint arthroplasty is an important goal. Literature suggests 30-day visit rates range between 4% and 15%, with only 20%-25% of these admitted for care. Low admissions suggest an opportunity to reduce unnecessary postarthroplasty ED visits.

We examined global records of accessible natural history voucher collections (with publicly available data and reliable locality data) for terrestrial and freshwater vascular plants, fungi, freshwater fishes, birds, mammals, and herpetofauna (amphibians and reptiles) and highlight areas of the world that would be considered undersampled and sometimes called 'unexplored' (., have relatively low, or no evidence of, past sampling efforts) under typical Western-scientific descriptions. We also question what 'unexplored' may mean in these contexts and explain how replacing the term in favor of more nuanced phrasing (.

Large-scale commercial-grade volatile fatty acids production from sewage sludge and food waste: A holistic environmental assessment.

Environ Sci Ecotechnol

January 2025

CRETUS, Department of Chemical Engineering. Universidade de Santiago de Compostela, 15782, Santiago de Compostela, Spain.

The valorization of sewage sludge and food waste to produce energy and fertilizers is a well-stablished strategy within the circular economy. Despite the success of numerous laboratory-scale experiments in converting waste into high-value products such as volatile fatty acids (VFAs), large-scale implementation remains limited due to various technical and environmental challenges. Here, we evaluate the environmental performance of a hypothetical large-scale VFAs biorefinery located in Galicia, Spain, which integrates fermentation and purification processes to obtain commercial-grade VFAs based on primary data from pilot plant operations.

Emergency Department Visits After Total Joint Arthroplasty in a Closed Urban Setting: A Report of 1,000 Consecutive Cases.

J Am Acad Orthop Surg Glob Res Rev

January 2025

From the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, BronxCare Health System, Bronx, NY.

Background: Rates of emergency department (ED) visits and readmissions after total joint arthroplasty (TJA) have been cited as indicators of TJA quality. Understanding the incidence and nature of these events is critical for prevention. The purpose of this study was to analyze readmission rates 30 and 90 days after TJA at a safety-net hospital in an urban setting and to compare this readmission rate with that for non-safety-net hospitals found in the current literature.
