Popliteal Artery Stent Thrombosis After Multiligamentous Knee Injury Reconstruction
Authors: Wan Joseph Jon Yin , Tan Grace I-Ling , Rahim Siti Mastura
Published: October 2024

Case:

A 44-year-old man sustained a thrombosed popliteal artery after a closed left knee dislocation after a high-energy motor vehicle collision. He underwent emergency open popliteal artery embolectomy, with insertion of endovascular stent. After arthroscopic multiligamentous knee injury reconstruction (MLKI-R) on day 18 after injury, he developed stent thrombosis, which resolved with urgent percutaneous thrombectomy.

Conclusion:

This is the first report of popliteal artery stent thrombosis after MLKI-R. Knee surgery in a revascularized limb has remained controversial, but studies are scarce in the literature. Frequent circulation monitoring and vascular specialist availability postoperatively are still key to detecting this complication and early revascularization.
The Seasonality of Childhood Bone and Joint Infection with Focus on Kingella kingae
Authors: Hunter Sarah , Crawford Haemish
Published: October 2024

Background:

Seasonal trends in hospitalization for childhood bone and joint infection (BJI) are reported inconsistently. True seasonal variation would suggest an element of disease risk from environmental factors. This review evaluates all reported seasonal variations in childhood BJI, with additional analysis of seasonal trends for diseases secondary to Kingella kingae.

Methods:

A systematic review of the literature was undertaken from January 1, 1980, to August 1, 2024. Data were extracted on the hospitalization rate by season and/or month. Pathogen-specific studies for BJI secondary to K. kingae were examined separately.

Results:

Twenty studies met inclusion criteria encompassing 35,279 cases of childhood BJI. Most studies reported seasonal variation (n = 15, 75%). Eight studies specifically considered disease secondary to K. kingae, and all reported more frequent hospitalization in autumn and/or winter. This is in keeping with the role of respiratory pathogens and seasonal viruses in disease etiology for K. kingae BJI. Findings from other studies on the seasonality of childhood BJI were inconsistent. There were reported seasonal peaks in autumn/winter (4 studies), summer/spring (5 studies), or no variation (5 studies). Where microbiologic data were available, Staphylococcus aureus was the primary pathogen. The quality assessment demonstrated confounding and heterogeneous inclusion criteria affecting the seasonal analysis.

Conclusion:

For childhood BJI caused by K. kingae, there appears to be a higher risk of hospitalization in autumn and/or winter months. This may relate to the seasonal circulation of respiratory viruses. There is currently insufficient evidence to support other forms of seasonal variation. Reported findings are likely affected by regional disease and pathogen characteristics.

Level of Evidence:

Prognostic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Exploring the Validity of International Geographical Indications for Indonesian Products
Authors: Aviva Srivit , Mediawati Noor Fatimah
Published: October 2024

Abstract: The increasing globalization of markets has raised significant legal questions regarding the registration of geographical indications (GIs), particularly concerning the validity of registering names from regions outside Indonesia. This research adopts a normative research method utilizing a statute approach to explore the legal framework governing GIs in Indonesia and compare it with international standards. The knowledge gap identified in this study pertains to the lack of comprehensive understanding regarding the requirements for registering foreign geographical names as GIs in Indonesia. The aim of this research is to provide an in-depth analysis of the legal validity of such registrations, focusing on the specific requirements and implications under Indonesian law. Preliminary findings indicate that while foreign regional names can be registered as trademarks if they meet specific criteria, they cannot be registered as GIs due to the absence of unique characteristics attributable to the geographical factors of the foreign country. This study's novelty lies in its comparative perspective, highlighting the discrepancies between local and international GI regulations, thereby enriching the discourse on intellectual property rights in a global context. The implications of this research are significant for policymakers and legal practitioners, as it underscores the necessity for clearer regulations and standards governing the use of foreign geographical names, ultimately aiming to protect consumers and uphold the integrity of Indonesian GIs.
Highlights:
 

oreign names may qualify for trademark registration under specific conditions.
Geographical indications require unique regional characteristics for registration.
Comparative analysis enhances understanding of international geographical indication laws.

General background, many Indonesian villages have economic potential that requires strategic development. Specific background, Bluru Kidul struggles with asset utilization and income generation. Knowledge gap, strategies for improving Village Original Income (PADesa) in similar contexts are underexplored. Aims, this study analyzes the village government’s strategies to increase income. Results, qualitative research reveals that while internal stakeholders like BUMDes and PKK are engaged, income targets remain unmet due to inconsistent training and limited actions. Novelty, the study identifies the lack of consistent training as a key issue. Implications, improving training and resource mobilization can enhance income generation and provide a model for other villages.
Highlights:

Village income is hindered by poor asset management and undeveloped potential.
Stakeholders like BUMDes and PKK are involved but not fully optimized.
Inconsistent training limits income growth despite efforts.

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of biospecimens in driving new research, disease understanding and the development of diagnostic tests and treatments. Many infectious disease studies collect samples in an isolated manner, meaning that sample numbers may be modest and unused biospecimens remain after studies address their original questions. We assembled a multidisciplinary team to develop a robust and adaptable technical infrastructure for a collaborative virtual biobank. We describe the implementation of the project, including the ethical and governance considerations, technical solutions and challenges encountered, to provide a detailed understanding of the development of a valuable research platform, the APPRISE Virtual Biobank.

Perinatal mental health disorders place a particularly high public health burden on South Africa (SA) via negative health outcomes for the birthing parent and adverse health outcomes for infants (e.g., low birth weight, preterm deliveries, malnourishment) as well as emotional and behavioral problems in children. Depression, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and other mental health disorders may also compromise engagement in HIV prevention behaviors during the perinatal period, when HIV acquisition risk increases. This is particularly important in SA, where almost a quarter of women between ages 15 to 49 have HIV. There is little research exploring the anticipated impacts mental health symptoms have on one’s ability to emotionally connect or caregive after delivery; this critical information will enable providers to support women and their mental health during the transition from pregnancy to postpartum. HIV-negative pregnant persons were recruited from an antenatal clinic in Cape Town as a part of a larger study investigating mental health barriers to pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) uptake during pregnancy. Participants qualified for an in-depth interview based on elevated symptoms of depression and/or PTSD. The interviews explored the likely impact of their mental health symptoms on their baby’s wellbeing, their ability to bond with their baby, and their ability to meet their baby’s needs. Following the principles of thematic analysis, we identified three main themes that described these relationships: (1) a strong perceived connection between maternal mental health and baby’s wellbeing; (2) perceived strains on bonding with the baby; and (3) negative impact of mental health on likelihood of completing parenting tasks. This study will inform future mental health programming to prepare pregnant persons with mental health symptoms for a successful postpartum period with respect to bonding and caring for their infant.
