Abstract:
Injuries to the musculoskeletal pelvis and thigh in sport are extremely common. Injury can occur at one or multiple sites of the bony pelvic ring, and in the soft tissues of the groin, abdominal wall, and thigh. Athletes in certain sports are particularly prone to hip injury, especially those involved in running, soccer, hockey, rugby, and dancing. Although recognized as a common region of injury, the true epidemiology is not known, as the spectrum of injury is wide, diagnosis can be complex, and injury classification is still debated in some conditions. Nevertheless, soft tissue injury and dysfunction are the most common forms of injury seen and, indeed, hamstring injury is the most frequent injury in a number of sports, including athletics, soccer, rugby union, and Australian Football League. Hamstring injuries are also the most common recurrent injury in sport....

Abstract:
This chapter on femoral neuropathy in pregnancy describes how to recognize the clinical syndrome of femoral neuropathy in the postpartum patient. Hallmarks of femoral neuropathy include legs buckling due to weakness in hip flexors and knee extensors, numbness and paresthesias in the anteromedial thigh, and reduced or absent patellar reflex. The chapter discusses how one can distinguish the disorder from other postpartum mononeuropathies, as well as from other, more ominous causes of postpartum leg weakness, such as epidural hematoma, retroperitoneal hematoma, anterior spinal artery syndrome, injury to the conus medullaris during administration of neuraxial block, and various obstetrical nerve injuries. Treatment and prognosis of femoral neuropathy are outlined.

Abstract:
Femoral neuropathy is the second most common peripheral nerve lesion in the lower extremity and often leads to significant disability and high risk of falls. This case presents a patient with severe femoral nerve injury resulting in weakness of hip flexion and knee extension and requiring specialized knee bracing. A discussion of the anatomy of the femoral nerve follows. Common causes of femoral neuropathy are lithotomy positioning and retroperitoneal/iliacus hematoma. This case highlights the challenging electrodiagnostic findings of the femoral nerve and the role of femoral nerve conduction studies in prognosis. It also attempts to clarify the distinguishing clinical and electrodiagnostic features between overlapping disorders, including femoral neuropathy, upper lumbar radiculopathy, and lumbar plexopathy.

Abstract:
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint condition worldwide. It can impair mobility and result in significant disability, need for total joint replacement, and healthcare utilization. OA is unusual in those younger than 40 years, then commonly the result of an underlying metabolic disorder or a prior joint injury. Some geographic and racial/ethnic variation exists in the prevalence and incidence of OA for specific joints, likely due to variation in genetics, anatomy, and environmental exposures. Many OA outcomes vary by socioeconomic status and other social factors. This chapter describes demographic and social determinants of knee, hip, and hand OA, including how these factors impact radiographic and symptomatic OA, OA-related pain and function, and its treatment.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter explores how service members with injuries that damage sexual and reproductive functioning may experience the psychosocial implications of impaired fertility. It addresses a general overview of infertility and then describes the experience within the military context. Infertility can be an invisible, secondary wound that is not felt until one considers procreation and that may last for many years. Further, infertility is an injury that affects not only the service member but also his or her partner. Many ethical considerations and barriers, including limited insurance coverage and accessibility for treatment, make it difficult to access technologies for reproduction. Fertility preservation and sperm harvesting should be considered as options by service members before deployment. While advances in technologies can help injured service members to procreate, the challenges and emotional fallout are significant and need to be addressed in treatment, counseling, and public policy.

Full text
Abstract:
The spectrum of acute kidney injury (AKI) encountered in the hospitals of the tropical zone countries is different from that seen in the non-tropical climate countries, most of which are high-income countries. The difference is explained in large part by the influence of environment on the epidemiology of human disease. The key features of geographic regions falling in the tropical zones are climatic, that is, high temperatures and absence of winter frost, and economic, that is, lower levels of income. The causes and presentation of tropical AKI reflect these prevailing cultural, socioeconomic, climatic, and eco-biological characteristics.Peculiarities of tropical climate support the propagation of several infectious organisms that can cause AKI and the disease-transmitting vectors. In contrast to the developed world, where AKI usually develops in already hospitalized patients with multiorgan problems and iatrogenic factors play a major role, tropical AKI is acquired in the community due to issues of public health importance such as safe water, sanitation, infection control, and good obstetric practices. Infections such as malaria, leptospirosis, typhus, HIV, and diarrhoeal diseases; envenomation by animals or insects; ingestion of toxic herbs or chemicals; intravascular haemolysis; poisoning; and obstetric complications form the bulk of AKI in the tropics. Poor access to modern medical facilities and practices such as seeking treatment from traditional faith-healers contribute to poor outcomes.AKI extracts macro- and microeconomic costs from the affected population and reduces productivity. Improvement in the outcomes of tropical AKI requires improvement in basic public health through effective interventions, and accessibility to effective medical care.

Abstract:
Although medical management of traumatic brain injury (TBI) may have improved in developed countries, TBI is still a major cause of mortality and morbidity. The demographics are skewed towards the younger patient population, and affects males more than females, but in general follow a bimodal distribution with peaks affecting young adults and the elderly. As a result, the loss of functional years is devastating. Pathology due to brain trauma is a complex two-hit phenomenon, frequently divided into ‘primary’ and ‘secondary’ injury. Hypoxia, ischaemia, and inflammation all play a role, and the importance of each component varies between patients and in an individual patient over time. The initial injury may increase intracranial pressure and reduce cerebral perfusion due to the presence of mass lesions or diffuse brain swelling. Further secondary insults, such as hypotension, reduced cerebral perfusion pressure, hypoxia, or fever may exacerbate swelling and inflammation, and further compromise cerebral perfusion. Although there are currently no specific effective treatments for TBI, an improved understanding of the pathophysiology may eventually lead to treatments that will reduce mortality and improve long-term functional outcome.

Abstract:
Distinct from Chapter 24, on co-occurring psychiatric disorders, this chapter addresses common physical comorbidities that give rise to chronic pain and are notorious for associated substance use disorders. The concept of “pseudo-addiction” is explored as one of several contributors to common misperceptions of the analgesic needs of such patients. Examples of entities discussed are chronic low back pain, sleep apnea, chronic pancreatitis, cirrhosis, and HIV infection or AIDS-related pain. While not intrinsically painful, sleep apnea merits inclusion as it arises in conjunction with sedative-hypnotic, opioid, or nicotine use. Cirrhosis likewise creates obstacles to successful pain or addiction management resulting from altered metabolism of medications and enhanced susceptibility to potentially lethal syndromes (hepato-renal syndrome, gastric hemorrhage, etc.). The management of neuropathic pain in HIV infection (Chapter 15) is amplified here.

Abstract:
♦ The pelvis acts as a fulcrum for the forces transmitted between the lower limb and trunk especially on twisting and turning movements while running, and in the reverse direction when kicking. Sports injuries around the pelvis are therefore common in weight-bearing sports, such as running, football, rugby, and basketball♦ Injury can occur to the various structures around the pelvis. Bone stress injuries affect the symphysis pubis, pubic rami, femoral neck, and sacrum. Stress fractures are more common in women and may occur as part of the female athlete triad (Box 7.15.1) where there is hypo-oestrogenaemia and low bone density♦ Tendon injuries, including enthesopathies, most commonly affect the adductors, lower abdominals, glutei and hamstrings. Hip injuries can occur as a result of labral tears and femoroacetabular impingement. Sacroiliac joint instability may also cause symptoms especially in the buttock region. Synovitis of either joint may suggest an inflammatory arthritis♦ Pain is the most common symptom. However it may be referred from elsewhere, especially the lumbar spine. Pain may also originate from other systems including the reproductive organs and the gastrointestinal and urinary tracts.

Full text
Abstract:
Vicarious liability is liability imposed on an employer to a third party for the tort of his employee committed in the course of employment. Vicarious liability is another instance of stricter liability in the sense that the employer who is not at fault is made responsible for the employee’s default. It thereby gives the injured party compensation from the person who is better able to pay and spread the cost of the injury, namely the employer. Anyone who wishes to hold an employer vicariously liable must prove: that the offender was his employee; that he committed a tort; and that he committed it in the course of his employment. This chapter discusses each of this in turn. It also considers the Contribution between employer and employee; liability for the torts of independent contractors; and the changing contours of employers’ liability.

Full text
Abstract:
Without assuming prior legal knowledge, books in the Directions series introduce and guide readers through key points of law and legal debate. Questions, diagrams, and exercises help readers to engage fully with each subject and check their understanding as they progress. This chapter explores the remaining general defences: self-defence and the prevention of crime, duress, duress of circumstances, and necessity. A defendant may rely on self-defence where he honestly believes that use of force is necessary in order to protect him and the force used is reasonable. The issue of duress arises where the defendant is threatened that he must commit a criminal offence or suffer physical injury or injury to his family. Duress excuses a defendant’s behaviour as a concession to human frailty, whereas necessity justifies it. Necessity does not require a threat made by a person of death or physical injury, but merely a choice between two evils.

Abstract:
This chapter is divided into three main sections. The first section concerns the patient population that presents for orthopaedic surgery, specifically examining chronic diseases of the musculoskeletal system and the medications commonly used for their management, and the impact this has when these patients present for surgery. Included in this section are the surgical considerations and the anaesthetic implications of orthopaedic surgery, ranging from patient positioning to bone cement implant syndrome. The last part of this first section looks at specific orthopaedic operations, starting with the most commonly performed, hip and knee arthroplasties, and moving onto the specialist areas of spinal deformity, paediatric, and bone tumour surgery that are not usually found outside of specialist centres. The middle section gives a brief overview on analgesia concentrating on pharmacological methods as, although orthopaedic surgery lends itself well to regional anaesthesia, this is covered elsewhere in its own dedicated chapters. No section on analgesia would be complete without mentioning enhanced recovery: the coordinated, multidisciplinary approach that improves the patient experience, increases early mobilization, and reduces length of stay, which should be the standard obtained for every patient. The final section covers the anaesthetic management of in-hospital trauma, giving an overview on initial assessment, timing of surgery, and management of haemorrhage and coagulopathy. This section finishes by covering the orthopaedic-specific topics of compartment syndrome, fat embolism syndrome, and the management of fractured neck of femur and spinal injury.

Abstract:
♦ Major trauma results in a systemic stress response proportional to both the degree of initial injury (1st hit) and the subsequent surgical treatment (2nd hit).♦ The key physiological processes of hypoxia, hypovolaemia, metabolic acidosis, fat embolism, coagulation and inflammation operate in synergy during the days after injury/surgery and their effective management determines prognosis.♦ The optimal timing and method of long bone fracture fixation after major trauma remains controversial. Two divergent views exist between definitive early intramedullary fixation and initial external fixation with delayed conversion to an intramedullary nail once the patient’s condition has been better stabilised.♦ There is agreement that the initial skeletal stabilisation should not be delayed and that the degree of initial injury has a more direct correlation with outcome and the development of subsequent systemic complications rather than the method of long bone fracture stabilisation.♦ Trauma patients can be screened to identify those more ‘at risk’ of developing systemic complications such as respiratory insufficiency. Specific risk factors include: A high injury severity score; the presence of a femoral fracture; the combination of blunt abdominal or thoracic injury combined with an extremity fracture; physiological compromise on admission and uncorrected metabolic acidosis prior to surgery.♦ The serum concentration of pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL) 6 may offer an accurate method of quantifying the degree of initial injury and the response to surgery.♦ The effective management of the polytraumatised patient involves a team approach and effective communication with allied specialties and theatre staff. A proper hierarchy of the injuries sustained can then be compiled and an effective surgical strategy made.

Abstract:
Following severe traumatic injury, patients enter a state of immune dysregulation consisting of both exaggerated inflammation and immune suppression. Traditionally, the host response has been viewed as an early systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) followed temporally by a compensatory anti-inflammatory or immune-suppressive response syndrome (CARS). While this paradigm has been widely accepted across both medical and scientific fields, recent advances have challenged this concept. The Glue grant investigators recently characterized both the initial inflammatory response to injury and the dynamic evolving recovery process. They found: (1) severe injury produces a rapid (< 12 hours) genomic reprioritization in which 80% of the leukocyte transcriptome is altered; (2) similarities in gene expression patterns between different injuries reveal an apparently fundamental response to severe inflammatory stress, which is far more common than different; (3) alterations in the expression of classical inflammatory and anti-inflammatory as well as adaptive immunity genes occur simultaneously, not sequentially after severe injury; (4) the temporal nature of the current SIRS/CARS paradigm is not supported at the level of the leukocyte transcriptome. Complications are not associated with genomic evidence of a ‘second hit’ and differ only in the magnitude and duration of this genomic reprioritization. Furthermore, the delayed clinical recovery with organ injury is not associated with dramatic qualitative differences in the leukocyte transcriptome. Finally, poor correlation between human and rodent inflammatory genomic responses will alter how the host response is studied in the future.

There was something quite exceptional about Cowboy’s death. The grim things that darkened and injured him from birth were relieved by the caring embraces of a team of professionals who committed themselves to “loving him until he died.” It is fair to say that those horrible features of American unexceptionalism, which harmed him throughout life, were redeemed by the exemplary activities of the palliative care team. Something wonderful literally transpired while he was dying. Despite the sadness and chaos of his final months, a transcendence of the injurious consequences of racism and poverty was achieved by mindful presence and the human potential to love one another.

This introduction offers an explanation of the book’s content and an overview of the background to Skryabin’s artistic development: the currents of thought of Russian symbolism and the debate about the significance of art; the relevance of the ‘Russian idea’; the concept of ‘ecstasy’ in Russian philosophy and Russian symbolism. It explores differences between Russian and Western approaches to philosophy, and gives a brief summary of the main influences on Skryabin. This is followed by an account of elements in Skryabin’s life which affected his development and outlook: loss of a talented mother in infancy; isolated upbringing; and personal setbacks: an injury which threatened to prevent him from performing, disappointment in first love, an unsuccessful marriage, a new relationship, exile in Switzerland and Belgium, return to Russia, and sudden death from blood poisoning, which brought to birth a ‘Skryabin myth’. It also examines personal and artistic (mostly philosophical and literary) influences.

Abstract:
Renal disease in persons with HIV has been a major cause of morbidity and mortality since the onset of the epidemic. HIV nephropathy (HIVAN) was the most common form of kidney disease initially seen, but in the post-antiretroviral therapy (ART) era it is much less common. Other renal conditions associated with HIV infection include immune complex disease and classic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. The pathologic spectrum of renal disease in patients with HIV is extensive. Some conditions, including HIVAN, improve following treatment of the virus with ART. Acute kidney injury is much more common in HIV-infected patients and is associated with a sixfold increase in mortality. Patients with HIV are also much more likely to require renal replacement therapy, including dialysis and renal transplantation. ART may also contribute to renal disease in patients with HIV.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the case for a proportionality constraint on causation. A range of examples seem to show that we prefer causes to be proportional to their effects. To use Yablo and Williamson’s example, when investigating causes of an injury we tend to judge ‘being hit by a red bus’ to be too specific, ‘being hit’ to be too general, and ‘being hit by a bus’ to be about right. In this chapter, some pragmatic explanations of this preference are presented and compared to each other. It is then argued that a version of a contrastivist approach to causation gives the best explanation. Some consequences for mental causation and causal claims at different levels are also discussed.

Abstract:
Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) are transcription factors that control the cellular response to changes in oxygen levels. This response is common to all cells in the body and is highly conserved in evolution. The kidney exhibits steep gradients in oxygenation which are important in the homeostatic response to anaemia. The cellular response to low levels of oxygen (hypoxia) also plays a role in such diverse processes as acute kidney injury, the progression of chronic kidney disease, and kidney cancer. There is now considerable interest in using drugs to manipulate the HIF response to treat these varied conditions.

Abstract:
This chapter first describes the physical toll boxing took on boxers such as Gaspar Ortega and Emile Griffith. Research shows that boxers suffer disproportionally from neurological damage. The scientific term for it is chronic traumatic brain injury. The results are permanent and progressive. Symptoms include Parkinsonism, dementia, personality changes, and cerebellum dysfunction. Gaspar began suffering from nightmares. Griffith exhibited brain damage while Don Jordan lost his mind as well. The remainder of the chapter details Gaspar's life and activities after retiring from boxing. The brain damage that wiped the joy out of the golden years of so many of this boxing cohort did not strike Gaspar. He attributes this to his defensive, slippery style. Though he is occasionally off balance when he walks, that is minor compared to the devastation that brought such misery to so many other retired fighters.

Abstract:
The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) enters the central nervous system soon after infection; can infect glia and tissue macrophages in the brain; and can injure neurons, resulting in loss of dendrites. These and other processes underpin a syndrome of cognitive and motor impairment termed HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND). This chapter principally focuses on HAND, although delirium and other neurocognitive disorders are also discussed and should remain in the differential diagnosis of cognitive impairment in persons with HIV. A differential diagnosis of cognitive impairment in HIV also includes multimorbid conditions that can influence neurocognitive performance, such as metabolic syndrome, vascular disease, medication toxicity, and substance use disorders. When developing treatment recommendations for HAND, initiation of ART and treatment of multimorbid conditions and other neurocognitive disorders should be prioritized. It is important for clinicians to regularly monitor HIV patients for HAND and other neurocognitive disorders since cognitive impairment can affect activities of daily living; quality of life; adherence to risk reduction, medical care, and medication; and survival.
