Symptomatic osteonecrosis in French survivors of childhood and adolescent leukemia: a clinical and MRI study of LEA cohort

Osteonecrosis (ON) is a known complication of acute leukemia (AL) management, affecting 1%–10% of young patients and resulting in long-term morbidity. Widespread access to MRI over the past decade has allowed earlier detection and more accurate assessment. This study investigated clinical and MRI features of the 129 (2.5%) patients with symptomatic ON retrospectively recruited from the French LEA (Leucémies de l’Enfant et de l’Adolescent, or child and adolescent leukemias) cohort (n = 4,973). We analyzed data concerning ON risk factors, multifocal involvement, severe lesions detected by MRI, and patient quality of life (QoL). ON patients tended to be >10 years old at the time of AL diagnosis (odds ratio [OR]: 22.46; p < 10−6), female (OR: 1.8; p = 0.002), or treated for relapse (OR: 1.81; p = 0.041). They more frequently suffered from other sequelae (p < 10−6). Most necroses involved weight-bearing joints, and they were multifocal in 69% of cases. Double-blinded review of MRIs for 39 patients identified severe lesions in 14, usually in the hips. QoL of adolescents and adults was poor and permanently impacted after onset of ON. In conclusion, age >10 at time of AL diagnosis, female sex, and relapse occurrence were risk factors for multifocal ON; MRI revealed severe ON in a third of the patients considered; and ON was associated with persistently poor QoL affecting multiple domains. Future studies should include prospective data addressing ON management and seek to identify genetic markers for targeted screening enabling early ON detection and treatment.

The moderating effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental wellbeing of health care workers on sustainable employability: A scoping review.

Sustainable employability (SE) amongst healthcare workers (HCW) is an important asset for healthcare institutions. However, SE is under strain due to high work pressure, a shortage of employees, and absenteeism amongst employees based on mental problems. These developments had already started before the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this review is to explore whether there is a moderating effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental wellbeing of HCW in the context of SE. A double blinded systematic review was conducted for this article in accordance with preferred reporting items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Eligible studies were subjected to quality evaluation and narrative synthesis. The analysis of the selected literature led to the understanding that mental problems amongst HCW were already abundantly present before the COVID-19 pandemic. Mental health problems have increased in prevalence, severity, and variation. In general, a negative relation between (mental) health and SE exists. Our findings show that mental health problems have heavily impacted the SE of HCW: absenteeism has increased and perspective on work has changed. It is time to prioritize the mental health of HCW to prevent acute care capacity from declining even further and ending up in a vicious circle.

COMPETÊNCIAS PARA PRÁTICAS DE EVACUAÇÕES AEROMÉDICAS EM EMERGÊNCIAS E DESASTRES: REVISÃO DE ESCOPO

ABSTRACT Objective: to map the competencies developed in training strategies for air transport practices for patients, in the face of emergency situations and disasters involving chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) agents. Method: this is a scoping review structured in accordance with the JBI and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Metanalyses extension for Scoping Reviews recommendations. The study was carried out in five stages: search for sources in 17 databases, an information portal and two repositories of gray literature, using 125 DeCS, MeSH and Emtree descriptors, without temporal and idiomatic clipping; selection; critical reading of the texts selected by two double-blind reviewers; summary of results and presentation of mapped competencies. Results: a total of 878 studies were analyzed, of which 18 composed the sample. In all, 11 competencies were mapped, with emphasis on the technical training domain. Competencies refer especially to technical-scientific knowledge in disaster situations involving CBRN agents and the safety of patients and professionals involved. Conclusion: the operationalization of artifices to improve qualification processes based on competencies proved to be strategic to increase the quality and safety of patient air transport practices. The approach of the sources on specific aspects of the particularities of practices related to emergencies and disasters involving CBRN agents in training/training processes demonstrates the academic effort to promote the reduction of the risk of these events when, in due course, civil and military institutions and their health operators are activated.

Determination of Unnecessary Blood Transfusion by Comprehensive 15-Hospital Record Review.

Although unnecessary blood component transfusions are costly and pose substantial patient risks, the extent of unnecessary blood use in a community hospital setting has not been systematically measured. A 15-hospital observational analysis was performed using comprehensive retrospective review. Approximately 100 encounters (x¯ = 103.9, standard deviation [SD] ± 7.6) per hospital (6,696 total component transfusion events) were reviewed between 2012 and 2018. Review was performed by two medical directors. Findings were supported by blind intra- and inter-reviewer double review and blind external review by 10 independent reviewers. Patients received an average of 4.3 (± 1.3) units. Only 8.2% (± 6.7) of patient encounters did not receive unnecessary units. Fifty-five percent (54.6% ± 13.5) could have been managed without at least one component type, while 44.6% (± 14.9) could have been managed completely without transfusion. Forty-five percent (45.4% ± 17.0) of red blood cell, 54.9% (± 19.3) of plasma-cryoprecipitate, and 38.0% (± 15.6) of plateletpheresis encounters could likely have been managed without transfusion. Between 2,713 units (40.5%) and 3,306 units (49.4%) were likely unnecessary. In patients who could have been managed without transfusion of at least one component type, unnecessary blood use was associated with a 0.38 (± 0.11)-day increase in length of hospital stay for each additional unnecessary unit received (p < 0.001). Substantial unnecessary blood use was identified, all of which was unrecognized by hospitals prior to review. Unnecessary blood use was attributed to overreliance on laboratory transfusion criteria and failure to follow common blood management principles, which resulted in potential harm to patients and avoidable cost.

Activation likelihood estimation identifies brain regions activated during puncturing at Hegu in healthy volunteers: A meta-analysis.

Hegu is the most commonly used acupoints for pain relief. Recently, several functional neuroimaging studies have been performed on acupuncture at Hegu in healthy volunteers, but these studies have yielded diverse findings. Therefore, there is an urgent need to understand the brain response characteristics of acupuncture at Hegu. Neuroimaging studies on acupuncture at Hegu published before October 2022 were collected from PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Embase, and CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure) databases, and were screened by strict inclusion and exclusion criteria. The extraction of brain coordinates was performed by two independent researchers, and the results were analyzed using activation likelihood estimation (ALE) analysis based on quantitative coordinates. In total, 338 studies were searched, of which 19 studies were included in the final analysis after a rigorous double-blind screening review. Activation likelihood estimation showed that postcentral gyrus in the left brain were activated, whereas the anterior cingulate in the left brain and superior temporal gyrus in the right brain were deactivated. Acupuncture at Hegu in healthy volunteers did not reveal specific brain regions. This finding implies that organismal status of the study subjects may have an important impact on the effect of acupoints. [https://www.crd.york.ac.uk], identifier [CRD42020197296].

Open peer review: some considerations on the selection and management of reviewers

Open peer review (OPR) is a type of review that has long since made space alongside the more well-known single-blind and double-blind peer reviews. Despite this, we still do not have a shared definition by the scientific community and publishers. The purpose of this paper is to offer some reflections on the selection of reviewers in OPR, a process that in its current configuration is traced back to the 19th century. After a brief overview of the best-known definitions of open peer review, the paper continues with an analysis of some aspects of reviewer selection carried out with the help of data from a recent survey.

Institution and gender-related differences in publication speed before and during COVID-19.

The COVID-19 pandemic elicited a substantial hike in journal submissions and a global push to get medical evidence quickly through the review process. Editorial decisions and peer-assessments were made under intensified time constraints, which may have amplified social disparities in the outcomes of peer-reviewing, especially for COVID-19 related research. This study quantifies the differential impact of the pandemic on the duration of the peer-review process for women and men and for scientists at different strata of the institutional-prestige hierarchy. Using mixed-effects regression models with observations clustered at the journal level, we analysed newly available data on the submission and acceptance dates of 78,085 medical research articles published in 2019 and 2020. We found that institution-related disparities in the average time from manuscript submission to acceptance increased marginally in 2020, although half of the observed change was driven by speedy reviews of COVID-19 research. For COVID-19 papers, we found more substantial institution-related disparities in review times in favour of authors from highly-ranked institutions. Descriptive survival plots also indicated that scientists with prestigious affiliations benefitted more from fast-track peer reviewing than did colleagues from less reputed institutions. This difference was more pronounced for journals with a single-blind review procedure compared to journals with a double-blind review procedure. Gender-related changes in the duration of the peer-review process were small and inconsistent, although we observed a minor difference in the average review time of COVID-19 papers first authored by women and men.

Special issue on food and beverage tourism: management and marketing perspectives

ABSTRACT Tourism and food & beverage are and have always been strongly connected. Nevertheless, in recent times, the experience potential of various types of local food and beverages (f & b) have sparked significant attention in food and beverage tourism amongst the tourism industry and destination marketing organizations. Food, beverage, and tourism researches have been done from a range of disciplines viewpoints, including finance, advertising, local participation, dietary habits, entrepreneurship, hospitality, ethnography, cognitive science, and other related fields, and the available literature on F & b tourism contains “management and marketing viewpoints” as well as “sociocultural viewpoints.” As a result, there has been a pressing need for new conceptual and empirical research that would add to the field of inquiry, particularly in the marketing and management aspects of f & b tourism, by recognizing important emerging developments. The selection of papers for this special issue on “Food and Beverage Tourism: Marketing and Management Perspectives” took a multidisciplinary approach. The goal was to provide a thorough overview of innovative issues while also presenting the current state of the tourism and marketing industries. Five papers were selected through a rigorous double-blind review process. These articles cover a wide range of topics in the field of food and beverage, including phenomenological examination of craft beer, mixing wine and tourism cultures, wine experienscape and visitor satisfaction, and wineries of Benedictine monasteries throughout Europe.
