Abstract Introduction Houselessness has increased in urban regions since the Covid-19 pandemic, potentially posing a risk to population northern climate. This study investigates how pre-injury living conditions influence health outcomes among thermally injured inpatients post-pandemic. We hypothesized that housing status at time of injury and admission is significant determinant our patient population. Methods A retrospective chart review was completed on patients admitted burn service level...

Data sharing presents several challenges to the informed consent process. Unique emerge when pediatric or pregnancy-related data. Here, parent preferences for non-biological data are examined. Groups (n = 4 groups, 18 participants) and individual interviews 19 were conducted with participants from two provincial, longitudinal pregnancy cohorts (AOB APrON). Qualitative content analysis was applied transcripts of semi-structured interviews. Participants supportive a broad, one-time model...

Facebook, a popular social media site, allows users to communicate and exchange information. Social sites can also be used as databases search for individuals, including cohort participants. Retaining tracking participants are essential the validity generalizability of data in longitudinal research. Despite numerous strategies minimize loss follow-up, maintaining contact with is time-consuming resource-intensive. may provide alternative methods contacting who consented follow-up but could...

Stress alters the formation of long-term memory (LTM) in Lymnaea. When snails are exposed to more than one stressor, however, how is altered becomes complicated. Here, we investigated multiple stressors applied a specific pattern affect an aspect not often studied regards stress - reconsolidation. We hypothesized that application sequence would block reconsolidation process. Reconsolidation occurs following activation previously formed memory. Sequential crowding and handling were used as...

Research data repositories (RDRs) are storage entities where can be submitted, stored, and subsequently accessed for purposes beyond the original intent. There is little information relating to non-biological RDRs, nor considerations regarding pediatric re-use. We examined parent perspectives on pediatric, RDRs. Qualitative, descriptive methods including both interviews focus groups were used. Purposive sampling of adult participants in two provincial birth cohorts yielded 19 interviewees 18...

Mandates abound to share publicly-funded research data for reuse, while platforms continue emerge facilitate such reuse. Birth cohorts (BC) involve longitudinal designs, significant sample sizes and rich deep datasets. Data sharing benefits include more analyses, greater complexity, increased opportunities collaboration, amplification of public contributions, reduced respondent burdens. Sharing BC involves challenges including consent, privacy, access policies, communication, vulnerability...

Acute coronary thrombosis is a known, but rare, contributor to morbidity and mortality in patients with thermal electrical injuries. The overall incidence of myocardial infarction among burn 1%, an in-hospital post-infarction approximately 67%, whereas the rate general patient population from 1.4% 18%. As such, early detection effective peri-operative management are essential optimize outcomes. Here, we report details adult male 65% total body surface area severe injury, who developed...

Despite the advances of modern operating rooms, surgeons often experience work environments that rival those industrial workers with regard to risk musculoskeletal (MSK) injuries or disorders. Such may result in loss hours, decreased surgical volume, premature retirement. This study aimed investigate prevalence and impact MSK among Canadian plastic trainees.

Abstract Introduction Accurate assessment and early interventions in the field are crucial to prognosis of burn injuries. Studies have indicated that up 35% patients inappropriately transferred hospitals. In some pediatric burns, reports suggested total surface area (TBSA) has been overestimated as much 44%. First responders play a pivotal role management injuries, especially remote areas. An intuitive mobile application incorporates standardized practices Advanced Burn Life Support (ABLS)...
