Chest wall injury fracture patterns are associated with different mechanisms of injury: a retrospective review study in the United States.
J Trauma Inj
March 2024
Department of Surgery, Saint Francis Hospital and Medical Center, Hartford, CT, USA.
Article Synopsis
- Research on rib fracture management has surged, aiming to correlate mechanisms of injury (MOI) with fracture patterns to enhance treatment strategies and resource allocation.
- The study utilized the Chest Injury International Database (CIID) to analyze rib fractures across various MOIs, collecting data from over 1,100 patients and creating heat maps to visualize fracture locations.
- Findings revealed significant differences in rib fracture patterns based on MOI, indicating that understanding these patterns is crucial for effective patient management in cases of severe chest trauma.
Removable regulating sutures during trabeculectomy for a safer and more effective intraocular pressure control.
Eur J Ophthalmol
August 2024
Ophthalmology Department, "Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A. Gemelli, IRCCS", 00168 Rome, Italy.
Purpose: Comparing the effect of standard trabeculectomy with direct sutures versus trabeculectomy with compression and everting sutures.
Methods: Mono-centric randomized prospective comparative study on 38 glaucomatous eyes undergoing trabeculectomy: 19 with standard fixed sutures (group A) and 19 withremovable regulating sutures (group B). Preoperatively and at day-7, 1-month, 2-months, 3-months and 6-months after surgery, we recorded best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP) and possible complications.
Polycaprolactone-Vitamin E TPGS Micellar Formulation for Oral Delivery of Paclitaxel.
Polymers (Basel)
August 2024
Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, College of Pharmacy, King Saud University, Riyadh 11451, Saudi Arabia.
This study aimed to investigate the potential of polycaprolactone-vitamin E TPGS (PCL-TPGS) micelles as a delivery system for oral administration of paclitaxel (PTX). The PCL-TPGS copolymer was synthesized using ring opening polymerization, and PTX-loaded PCL-TPGS micelles (PTX micelles) were prepared via a co-solvent evaporation method. Characterization of these micelles included measurements of size, polydispersity, and encapsulation efficiency.

Surgery
February 2024
Feinberg School of Medicine, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL. Electronic address:
Background: State guidelines for re-triage, or emergency inter-facility transfer, have never been characterized across the United States.
Methods: All 50 states' Department of Health and/or Trauma System websites were reviewed for publicly available re-triage guidelines within their rules and regulations. Communication was made via phone or email to state agencies or trauma advisory committees to obtain or confirm the absence of guidelines where public data was unavailable.
Horizontal eyelid shortening alone versus combined procedures for the correction of involutional lower eyelid entropion.
Int Ophthalmol
December 2023
Adnexal Department, Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Trust, London, EC1V 2PD, UK.
Background: Conventionally, management of involutional entropion involves correcting both vertical and horizontal laxity, however the optimal surgical approach is debated.
Objective: To compare the recurrence rate of horizontal lower eyelid shortening alone with combined surgical approaches for correction of involutional lower eyelid entropion.
Methods And Material: A retrospective, comparative, consecutive case series of patients undergoing surgery for involutional lower eyelid entropion with both horizontal and vertical laxity.
