AI Article Synopsis
- - The presence of violence in workplaces necessitates a tailored risk assessment process, which includes identifying risks, conducting quantitative assessments, and evaluating impacts for effective prevention.
- - Collecting workers' experiences through various methods such as focus groups and ergonomics discussions is essential for accurately recognizing workplace violence.
- - To assess risks comprehensively, it’s important to combine event reporting with systematic recording and targeted surveys, analyzing data to determine the prevalence and impacts of workplace violence for better resource allocation.
Article Abstract
The risk of violence is present in all workplaces. It must be accurately assessed to establish prevention and protection measures tailored to the features of each situation. The risk management process requires compliance in a sequential order: 1) risk identification, 2) quantitative risk assessment, and 3) impact assessment. Gathering workers' experiences using lists, focus groups, or participatory ergonomics groups is necessary to identify the phenomenon. For risk assessment, spontaneous reporting of events is often insufficient. It may be complemented with two methods: systematic recording of violent events that occurred in the past year during periodic medical examinations of workers and targeted surveys. The epidemiological analysis of data from individual interviews and surveys provides the phenomenon's prevalence, incidence, and evolution. Moreover, reporting the harm suffered by victims of violence allows constructing impact matrices to allocate resources where they are most needed.

Effects of Intravenous Hydroxyzine Versus Haloperidol Monotherapy for Delirium: A Retrospective Study.
J Clin Psychiatry
January 2025
Department of Neuropsychiatry, Keio University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan, Division of Drug Informatics, Keio University Faculty of Pharmacy, Tokyo, Japan.
Although antipsychotics are used commonly for delirium, they increase the risk of mortality in elderly patients and those with dementia. As hydroxyzine has sedative and anxiolytic effects, it can be used in the treatment of delirium. We performed a retrospective study to compare the effects of intravenous hydroxyzine and haloperidol monotherapy on delirium.

Centre for Metabolic Bone Diseases, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, United Kingdom.
FRAX, a risk calculator that provides individualized 10-year probabilities of hip and major osteoporotic fracture, has been widely used for fracture risk assessment since its launch in 2008. It is now incorporated into very many guidelines worldwide to inform osteoporosis management. In this review, we explore the development of FRAX and how it enhances fracture risk prediction as compared to use of bone mineral density alone, as well as approaches to utilizing FRAX in determining intervention and assessment thresholds.
