Many students come to higher education with a history of trauma. College life may also expose students to traumatizing events. While the past decade has witnessed greater discussion of trauma-informed frameworks, it has not regularly been applied to the college environment. We advance the concept of a trauma-informed campus, where administrators, f...

Ankle fracture treatment is predicated on minimal displacement, leading to abnormal joint contact area. The purpose of this investigation is to determine whether computed tomography (CT) detects subtle mortise malalignment undetectable by x-ray in supination-external rotation-II (SER-II) injuries. A total of 24 patients with SER-II injuries, as dem...

Death awareness and near-death experiences initiate shifts in awareness, priorities, and relationships. This narrative inquiry explored the stories of four individuals who had near-death experiences. Participants shared their experiences before and after the experiences. Findings include considerations of how mortality awareness connects with life ...

For rotational ankle fractures with a posterior malleolus fracture (PMF), the decision to further evaluate the ankle injury with computed tomography (CT) is challenging. The objective of this study is to determine how well PMF fracture size on x-rays correlates with size on CT, and how well x-rays can predict which patients receive PMF fixation aft...

Throughout the musculoskeletal system, fracture patterns and subsequent healing rely partly on bone density. In the foot and ankle, bone density has been shown to play a role in supination and external rotation fracture patterns. Adding to previous research, this investigation examines the association between bone density and trimalleolar versus tr...

Tobacco use remains one of the most significant preventable public health problems globally and is increasingly concentrated among vulnerable groups, including those with trauma exposure or diagnosed with PTSD. The goal of this systematic review was to update and extend previous reviews. Of the 7224 publications that met the initial criteria, 267 w...

Liver trauma is common and can be treated non-operatively, through radiological embolisation, or surgically. Non-operative management (NOM) is preferred when possible, but specific criteria remain unclear. This retrospective study at a level I trauma centre assessed the evolution and outcomes of liver injury management over more than 20 years. Data...
Background/Objectives: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to increased mental health issues, particularly among long-COVID patients, who experience persistent symptoms post-recovery, potentially leading to chronic conditions. The psychological impact of long-COVID is still largely unknown, but it may contribute to mental disorders like Post-Traumatic St...
Background: Mandibular condylar fractures are among the most common fractures of the facial skeleton, and their surgical management remains a topic of considerable debate in maxillofacial trauma surgery. Numerous studies in the literature internationally have explored optimal treatment approaches, with a growing preference for open reduction and in...
Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) have already been associated, in some studies, with various diverse psychosocial abnormalities in later life. However, it is still unclear whether ACEs reported by biological parents differ from ACE scores in community samples. Background/Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the extent to which p...
