Aim. To analyze in-hospital and long-term (12 months) results of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) supported by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in patients with stable coronary heart disease and multivessel coronary artery disease, and to justify the use of such approach in the treatment of this group of patients.Methods. The retrospective analysis included 13 patients with stable coronary artery and multivessel coronary disease. The mean SYNTAX score before the intervention was 31.4±10.8. Between 30 days and 12 months in the postoperative period, the frequency and type of the following major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) was assessed: all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, repeat revascularization. Twelve months after the event, the data on the frequency and type of adverse cardiovascular events were collected by means of telephone follow-up.Results. Coronary intervention supported by ECMO was performed in all patients. 8 (61.6%) patients required an open surgical approach for ECMO cannula insertion. Door to balloon time was 109.6±79.2 minutes. The mean duration of ECMO support was 101.7±45.4 minutes. Haemodynamic instability, abnormalities in pulmonary gas exchange and rhythm disturbances were not revealed during primary PCI, making it possible to wean off the ECMO post-PCI. The mean residual SYNTAX score was 9.3±11.8. BARC class ≥3 bleeding complications were observed in 6 of 13 patients. Long-term major adverse cardiovascular events with fatal outcomes occurred in 3 (23.1%) patients.Conclusion. Supporting high-risk PCI with ECMO in patients with stable coronary artery disease, multivessel coronary artery disease and low left ventricular ejection fraction made it possible to successfully perform the intervention in all patients. Nevertheless, the long-term (12 months) results show a high percentage of recurrent myocardial infarction, which can be associated with high residual SYNTAX score.

Social Distancing with the Optimal Steps Model
Authors: Mayr Christina Maria , Köster Gerta 
Published: December 2021

With the Covid-19 pandemic, an urgent need has arisen to simulate social distancing. The Optimal Steps Model (OSM) is a pedestrian locomotion model that operationalizes an individual's need for personal space. We present new parameter values for personal space in the OSM to simulate social distancing in the pedestrian dynamics simulator Vadere. Our approach is pragmatic. We consider two use cases: in the first, we demand that a set social distance must never be violated. In the second the social distance can be violated temporarily for less than 10s. For each use case we conduct simulation studies in a typical bottleneck scenario and measure contact times, that is, violations of the social distance rule.We conduct regression analysis to assess how the parameter choice depends on the desired social distance and the corridor width. We find that evacuation time increases linearly with the width of the repulsion potential, which is an analogy to physics modeling the strength of the need for personal space. The evacuation time decreases linearly with larger corridor width. The influence of the corridor width on the evacuation time is smaller than the influence of the range of the repulsion, that is, the need for personal space. If the repulsion is too strong, we observe clogging effects. Our regression formulas enable Vadere users to conduct their own studies without understanding the intricacies of the OSM implementation and without extensive parameter adjustment.

The EPA’s Commitment to Children’s Environmental Health: History and Current Challenges
Authors: Sullivan Marianne , Fredrickson Leif , Sellers Chris 
Published: December 2021

Children’s environmental health (CEH) has a 25-year history at the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), during which the agency has advanced CEH through research, policy, and programs that address children’s special vulnerability to environmental harm. However, the Trump administration took many actions that weakened efforts to improve CEH. The actions included downgrading or ignoring CEH concerns in decision-making, defunding research, sidelining the Children’s Health Protection Advisory Committee, and rescinding regulations that were written in part to protect children. To improve CEH, federal environmental statutes should be reviewed to ensure they are sufficiently protective. The administrator should ensure the EPA’s children’s health agenda encompasses the most important current challenges and that there is accountability for improvement. Guidance documents should be reviewed and updated to be protective of CEH and the federal lead strategy refocused on primary prevention. The Office of Children’s Health Protection’s historically low funding and staffing should be remedied. Finally, the EPA should update CEH data systems, reinvigorate the role of the Children’s Health Protection Advisory Committee, and restore funding for CEH research that is aligned with environmental justice and regulatory decision-making needs.

Objectives. To evaluate universal access to clean drinking water by characterizing relationships between community sociodemographics and water contaminants in California domestic well areas (DWAs) and community water systems (CWSs). Methods. We integrated domestic well locations, CWS service boundaries, residential parcels, building footprints, and 2013–2017 American Community Survey data to estimate sociodemographic characteristics for DWAs and CWSs statewide. We derived mean drinking and groundwater contaminant concentrations of arsenic, nitrate, and hexavalent chromium (Cr[VI]) between 2011 and 2019 and used multivariate models to estimate relationships between sociodemographic variables and contaminant concentrations. Results. We estimated that more than 1.3 million Californians (3.4%) use domestic wells and more than 370 000 Californians rely on drinking water with average contaminant concentrations at or above regulatory standards for 1 or more of the contaminants considered. Higher proportions of people of color were associated with greater drinking water contamination. Conclusions. Poor water quality disproportionately impacts communities of color in California, with the highest estimated arsenic, nitrate, and Cr(VI) concentrations in areas of domestic well use. Domestic well communities must be included in efforts to achieve California’s Human Right to Water. (Am J Public Health. 2022;112(1):88–97. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2021.306561 )

Authors: Thornley Patrick , Peterson Devin , Kishta Waleed 
Published: December 2021

Case:
A nonverbal 2-year-old boy presented with acute-on-chronic thoracolumbar fracture-subluxation with associated chylothorax and progressive neurologic dysfunction secondary to nonaccidental trauma. We discussed the successful management of this patient with short-segment pedicle screw instrumentation resulting in complete resolution of his chylothoraxes and neurologic impairment. A clinical follow-up is reported out to 12 months after hardware removal.

Conclusion:
Thoracolumbar fracture-subluxation with massive chylothorax is a rare and important presentation of nonaccidental trauma that must be recognized. Temporary pedicle screw fixation is a successful treatment option for young children presenting with this difficult spinal pathology.

Published: December 2021

Case:
A 58-year-old man underwent anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) for the treatment of cervical spondylotic myelopathy. Immediately after surgery, the patient experienced elevated blood pressure with a fall in oxygen saturation which prevented extubation. He required admission to the critical care unit and was diagnosed with baroreflex failure syndrome (BFS). He was managed with a 4-drug medical regimen and stabilized by the second postoperative day.

Conclusion:
BFS should be considered in the setting of sudden sharp elevation in blood pressure after ACDF. Early diagnosis and initiation of appropriate pharmacotherapy may reduce patient morbidity and mortality.

Published: December 2021

Update
This article was updated on February 11, 2022, because of a previous error. On pages 11 to 14, in Table IV, the fourth column beginning with “SSNB (interventional)” is now included under the shared column head entitled “Follow-up Time Points and Intervention Groups.”
An erratum has been published: JBJS Reviews. 2022 March 31;10(3):e21.00042ER.

Background:
Frozen shoulder is a common condition resulting in severe pain and restricted range of motion. An assessment of the effectiveness of interventions may provide an improved understanding of the development and management of frozen shoulder.

Methods:
A literature search was conducted using Embase, the Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health (CINAHL), the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and National Center for Biotechnology Information PubMed using relevant terms. Studies were included if they assessed the outcomes of interventions on the suprascapular nerve that aim to improve the symptoms of frozen shoulder.

Results:
A database search returned 196 articles. After review, 9 articles met the inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis. Suprascapular nerve interventions (nerve block, pulsed radiofrequency lesioning) are associated with improvement in pain, motion, and function. Meta-analysis showed that pain (Hedges g, −3.084 [95% confidence interval (CI), −4.273 to −1.894]; p < 0.001) and range of motion (Hedges g, 2.204 [95% CI, 0.992 to 3.415]; p < 0.001) improved significantly following suprascapular nerve block (SSNB).

Conclusions:
SSNB is associated with significant improvements in shoulder pain and range of motion in patients with frozen shoulder. Further randomized controlled trials comparing SSNB with intra-articular injection and other nonoperative treatments are required to fully define its role in the management of frozen shoulder.

Abstract
Background: Several studies described post-operative irritative symptoms after laser enucleation of prostate, sometimes associated with urge incontinence, probably linked to laser-induced prostatic capsule irritation, and potential for lower urinary tract infections We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a suppository based on Phenolmicin P3 and Bosexil (Mictalase®) in control of irritative symptoms in patients undergoing thulium laser enucleation of prostate (ThuLEP).Methods: In this single-center, prospective, randomized, open label, phase-III study, patients with indication to ThuLEP were enrolled (Dec2019-Feb2021 - Institutional ethics committee STS CE Lazio approval no.1/N-726 - ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05130918). The report conformed to CONSORT 2010 guidelines. Eligible patients were 1:1 randomized. Randomization defined Group A: patients who were administered Mictalase® suppositories twice a day for 5 days, then once a day for other 10 days; Group B: patients who did not receive Mictalase® (“controls”). Study endpoints were evaluated at 15 and 30 days postoperation. Primary endpoint included evaluation of effects of the suppository on irritative symptoms by administering IPSS+QoL questionnaire. Secondary endpoint included evaluation of effects on urinary tract infections by performance of urinalysis with urine culture.Results: 111 patients were randomized: 56 in Group A received Mictalase®. Baseline and perioperative data were comparable. At 15-days, no significant differences were found in terms of IPSS+QoL scores and urinalysis parameters. A significant difference in the rate of positive urine cultures favored Group A (p=0.04). At 30-days follow-up, significant differences were found in median IPSS score (6 [IQR 3–11] versus 10 [5–13], Group A vs B, respectively, p=0.02). Urinalysis parameters and rate of positive urine cultures were not significantly different.Conclusions: The present randomized trial investigated the efficacy of Mictalase® in control of irritative symptoms and prevention of lower urinary tract infections in patients undergoing ThuLEP. IPSS improvement 30-days postoperation was more pronounced in patients who received Mictalase®. Lower rate of positive urine culture favored Mictalase® group 15-days postoperatively. The clinical trial has been registered on ClinicalTrials.gov on November 23rd, 2021 – Registration number NCT05130918.

Abstract
Background: Smoking poses a serious risk of early preventable death and disease especially for women living with socio-economic disadvantage (SED). A smoking cessation programme ‘We Can Quit’ was developed in Ireland tailored to SED women. The programme includes group-based support delivered by trained lay local women and free nicotine replacement therapy (NRT). The intervention was pilot tested in a cluster randomised controlled trial, ‘We Can Quit 2’. A process evaluation assessed feasibility and acceptability of the programme and trial processes.Methods: Embedded qualitative design using the Medical Research Council’s (MRC) process evaluation framework. Semi-structured interviews with trial participants (N=18) and programme deliverers, the community facilitators (CFs; N=8). Thematic analysis was used for interview transcripts.Results: Results focused on programme and trial operational factors. Peer-modelling, a non-judgemental environment, and CFs supportive role of group support were viewed as facilitative. Potential for broader message diffusion into the social networks of participating women was observed. Free NRT was helpful for cessation. Some participants expressed concerns about NRT side effects. Community pharmacists provided guidance relating to NRT and additional support between programme meetings. Provision of saliva samples proved challenging. Low literacy was a barrier for engagement with programme and trial-related materials. Hypothetical scenarios of direct or indirect observational fidelity assessment for a future definitive trial (DT) were acceptable. Conclusions: The We Can Quit intervention and trial-related processes were feasible and acceptable to participants and Community Facilitators. Any future DT will need to address low literacy.Trial registration: Controlled trials ISRCTN74721694.
