The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery established the Three Delays framework, categorising delays in accessing timely surgical care into seeking (First Delay), reaching (Second and receiving (Third Delay). Globally, knowledge gaps regarding for fracture care, lack of large prospective studies informed rationale our international observational study. We investigated hospital admission as a surrogate explored factors associated with delayed admission.
To describe the regional distribution of fractures sustained by women and health care system characteristics across 17 low- middle-income countries (LMICs).The INternational ORthopaedic MUlticentre Study in fracture (INORMUS) is an observational study collecting data on patients LMICs who a or musculoskeletal injury. As planned analysis for INORMUS study, we explored differences locations demographics reported among 9878 female within 5 regions (China, Africa, India, Other Asia, Latin...
Liver transplants (LTs) are prioritized by mortality risk, which is estimated MELD scores. Since hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients present with lower scores, they allocated exception points. Concerns persist that HCC recipients over-prioritized, resulting in disproportionate waitlist among non-HCC patients. We assessed whether the Median Meld at Transplant minus 3 (MMaT-3) scoring system would balance and transplantation rates between reviewed 266 patient charts listed for an LT from...
