Clinical outcome of open ankle fractures in patients above 70 years of age
CONCLUSION: An open ankle fracture in a patient older than 70 years has at least a 20% chance of requiring repeated surgical intervention due to deep SSIs. The presence of a cardiac history appears to be the main predictor for wound complications.PMID:37485433 | PMC:PMC10359747 | DOI:10.5312/wjo.v14.i7.554

The association between cervical artery dissection and spinal manipulation among US adults
ConclusionAmong privately insured US adults, the overall risk of CeAD is very low. Prior receipt of CSM was more likely than E&M among VAD patients as compared to stroke patients. However, for CAD patients as compared to stroke patients, as well as for both VAD and CAD patients in comparison with population controls and in case-crossover analysis, prior receipt of E&M was more likely than CSM.

The accuracy of hip fracture data entered into the national surgical quality improvement program (NSQIP) database
ConclusionHip fracture CPT codes and 30-day complication data entered into the NSQIP registry were frequently inaccurate. Studies incorporating NSQIP data should acknowledge these potential limitations of the registry, and future research to validate NSQIP orthopedic data across procedures and institutions is necessary.Level of Evidence: Level IIIDiagnostic study

Why anticoagulant studies on sepsis fail frequently --- start with SCARLET
Chin J Traumatol. 2023 May 2:S1008-1275(23)00042-1. doi: 10.1016/j.cjtee.2023.04.006. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe Sepsis Coagulopathy Asahi Recombinant LE Thrombomodulin (SCARLET) trial has many defects, and thus cannot be the terminator of recombinant thrombomodulin (rTM). On the contrary, it provides sufficient evidence for further research. Based on analysis focusing on the failure of SCARLET and several previous anticoagulant studies, it is most important for new studies to grasp the following two points: (1) The enrolled cases should have sufficient disease severity and a clear standard for disseminated intravas...
