Genetic diversity and molecular evolution of Seoul virus in Hebei province, China
Infect Genet Evol. 2023 Sep 16;114:105503. doi: 10.1016/j.meegid.2023.105503. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSeoul virus (SEOV) is a major pathogen which causes hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), and is present all over the world. However, there are currently few long-term systematic studies of SEOV's phylogenetic and evolutionary mechanisms in epidemic areas. Thus, in this study, we used RT-PCR combined with NGS to obtain the genomes of six SEOV viruses from 1993, as well as 56 Hebei province-specific tissue samples from 1999 to 2022. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the SEOV samples could be divided into seven...

Evolution of Perioperative Pain Management in Shoulder Arthroplasty
Orthop Clin North Am. 2023 Oct;54(4):435-451. doi: 10.1016/j.ocl.2023.04.004. Epub 2023 Jun 20.ABSTRACTHistorically, opioids have been used as a primary conservative treatment for pain related to glenohumeral osteoarthritis (GHOA). However, this practice is concerning as it often leads to overuse, which has contributed to the current epidemic of addiction and overdoses in the United States. Studies have shown that preoperative opioid use is associated with higher complication rates and worse outcomes following surgery, particularly for shoulder arthroplasty. To address these concerns, perioperative pain management for shou...

Demographic and Geographic Characterization of Excess Mortality During the COVID-19 Pandemic in Baltimore City, MD, March 2020 - March 2021
Am J Epidemiol. 2023 Sep 15:kwad186. doi: 10.1093/aje/kwad186. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEstimates of excess mortality can provide insight into direct and indirect impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic beyond deaths specifically attributed to COVID-19. We analyzed death certificate data from Baltimore City, Maryland from March 1, 2020 to March 31, 2021 and found that 1,725 individuals (95% confidence interval, 1,495-1,954) died in excess of what was expected from all-cause mortality trends in 2016-2019. 1,050 (61%) excess deaths were attributed to COVID-19. Observed mortality was 23-32% higher than expected among individual...

Examining the Influence of Imbalanced Social Contact Matrices in Epidemic Models
Am J Epidemiol. 2023 Sep 15:kwad185. doi: 10.1093/aje/kwad185. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTransmissible infections such as those caused by SARS-CoV-2 spread according to who contacts whom. Therefore, many epidemic models incorporate contact patterns through contact matrices. Contact matrices can be generated from social contact survey data. However, the resulting matrices are often imbalanced, such that the total number of contacts reported by group A with group B do not match those reported by group B with group A. We examine the theoretical influence of imbalanced contact matrices on the estimated basic reproduction n...
