Background: Over the last decade, numerous efforts have been made to combat the opioid crisis globally. The impact of these strategies has not been adequately measured and may differ across populations depending on baseline risk. We compared changes in long-term prescription opioid use following surgery within a national US cohort, between 2017 and 2022.

Efficient evacuation - enhanced survival: Insights from Gaza conflict trauma care.

J Trauma Acute Care Surg

January 2025

From the Department of Orthopedic Surgery (I.F., S.B., M.T., D.P., R.B., N.G.), Chaim Sheba Medical Center at Tel Hashomer, Tel Aviv University Faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv, Israel.

Background: Combat-related injuries have evolved in urban warfare because of close-contact engagements and high-energy blast injuries, with rapid medical evacuation improving survival rates. This study analyzes injury patterns and outcomes in the Gaza conflict, emphasizing the need to optimize trauma care protocols in modern combat environments, particularly because of the unique proximity of conflict zones to tertiary trauma centers.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted at a single center involving 189 patients evacuated by helicopter to a Level I tertiary trauma center.

Article Synopsis
  • Effective global action against antimicrobial resistance (AMR) requires a robust scientific policy interface to translate evidence into practice, an area currently lacking an authoritative entity.
  • The proposed Scientific Panel on Evidence for Action against AMR (SPEA) aims to fill this gap by enhancing global coordination, providing real-time evidence, and tracking progress towards AMR goals.
  • Drawing lessons from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), this essay discusses the potential functions and governance models for SPEA to support equitable, evidence-informed policy-making while addressing inherent challenges.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers developed a radiative cooling textile (PAC@T) inspired by flamingo feathers, using polyacrylonitrile and alumina particles to enhance cooling and comfort.
  • PAC@T achieves high solar reflectance (95%) and mid-infrared emissivity (91.8%), resulting in effective cooling that is 6.1°C cooler than traditional textiles.
  • The textile is made from common materials and offers advantages like durability and energy-free operation, posing significant potential for future industrial applications in personal thermoregulation.
