Abstract:
Objectives: To determine demographic and clinical profile of Tetanus patientsand to highlight various management strategies as well as the outcome of the tetanus patients.Background: Tetanus, a preventable disease still found in high frequency in developing world.Globally one million cases are recorded annually. This disease found more frequently in patientswho are either non vaccinated or partially immunized. Diagnosis of Tetanus is solely made onclinical grounds with no definitive investigation available to confirm the diagnosis. Mortality ofTetanus is directly related to the grade of tetanus at presentation. Study Design: Descriptiveobservational study. Setting: Public and private sector hospitals of Hyderabad, Pakistan. Period:1st Nov 2008 to 31st Oct 2015. Materials & methods: It includes patients of either sex abovethe age of 13 years who were clinically diagnosed as case of Tetanus. Data was collected forvariables related to demography, incubation period, site of injury, history of tetanus vaccination,co morbidity, stage of presentation, management & outcome of treatment, complications &mortality. Results: Total 131 patients of Tetanus were finally analyzed. It includes 124 (94.65%)male and 07 (5.34%) female patients with mean age of 34.06 years. 69 (52.67%) were farmers byoccupation. History of injury was present in 109(83.20%) patients & incubation period was < 10days in 39(29.77%) patients. Lower limb was the commonest site of injury noted in 86(65.64%)patients. Tetanus immunization history was positive in 63 (48.09 %) patients. Among the clinicalfindings, generalized bodyache or stiffness with backache was noted in 107(81.67%) patients,restricted mouth opening in 101 (70.09%) patients. Grade I Tetanus was noted in 63(48.09%)patients. Complications of tetanus were noted in 43(32.82%) patients. Mortality rate was notedin 33 (25.19%) patients. Mean hospital stay was 12.3±9.0 days. Conclusion: Tetanus is foundin significant frequency in our setup which carries substantial morbidity and mortality.

Abstract:
Background: Fear of reinjury is common after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and often deters a return to preinjury sport participation. A better understanding of injury-related fear is needed to inform rehabilitation strategies. Purpose/Hypothesis: The purpose of this study was to (1) identify individual fear-evoking tasks or situations, (2) compare the intensity and amount of change relative to other injury-related fears (reinjury, knee giving way, and knee pain) after completion of a return-to-sport training program, and (3) determine whether standardized questionnaires can identify the intensity of fear for the individual fear-evoking task or situation and for fear of reinjury. The hypothesis was that the task or situation that evokes fear would vary across patients and the intensity of that fear would be higher and show less change after return-to-sport training compared with other injury-related fears. Study Design: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: Participants included 33 patients (15 males; mean age, 18 years) with ACLR who enrolled in a group-format return-to-sport training program. Questionnaires completed before and after return-to-sport training included items to specify fear-evoking tasks or situations, items to rate the intensity of various injury-related fears, the Anterior Cruciate Ligament Return to Sport after Injury scale (ACL-RSI), and the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK-11). Results: The most common fear-evoking task or situation was cutting, followed by contact, jumping, and other. Intensity of fear-evoking task or situation was higher than other injury-related fears, but all fears decreased in intensity after training. The ACL-RSI score better identified the intensity of fear for the individual fear-evoking task or situation and for fear of reinjury than did the TSK-11 score. Conclusion: Activities that evoke fear vary across patients, but fear of cutting is common. The intensity of common fears after ACLR decreased after advanced group training, and large effect sizes were seen for nearly all examined fears. Fear of reinjury and intensity of individually feared tasks may be better reflected in the ACL-RSI score than the TSK-11 score.

Abstract:
Background: Shock after traumatic injury is likely to be hypovolemic, but different types of shock (distributive shock, obstructive shock, or cardiogenic shock) can occur in combination, known as multifactorial shock. Multifactorial shock is a neglected area of study, and is only reported sporadically. Little is known about the incidence, characteristics, and outcomes of multifactorial shock after polytrauma. Methods: A retrospective, observational, multicenter study was conducted in four Level I trauma centers involving 1051 polytrauma patients from June 2020 to April 2022. Results: The mean Injury Severity Score (ISS) was 31.1, indicating a severely injured population. The most common type of shock in the early phase after polytrauma (≤48 h) is hypovolemic shock (83.2%), followed by distributive shock (14.4%), obstructive shock (8.7%), and cardiogenic shock (3.8%). In the middle phase after polytrauma (>48 h or ≤14 days), the most common type of shock is distributive shock (70.7%), followed by hypovolemic shock (27.2%), obstructive shock (9.9%), and cardiogenic shock (7.2%). Multifactorial shock accounted for 9.7% of the entire shock population in the early phase and 15.2% in the middle phase. In total, seven combinations of multifactorial shock were described. Patients with multifactorial shock have a significantly higher complication rate and mortality than those with single-factor shock. Conclusions: This study characterizes the incidence of various types of shock in different phases after polytrauma and emphasizes that different types of shock can occur simultaneously or sequentially in polytrauma patients. Multifactorial shock has a relatively high incidence and mortality in polytrauma patients, and trauma specialists should be alert to the possibility of their occurrence.

Abstract:
Psychiatrists working with war veterans have, in recent years, constructed ‘moral injury’ as a separate manifestation of war trauma that is distinct from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This paper argues that for moral degradation to occur, it necessarily involves one’s commissions or omissions that transgresses one’s personal morality, and hence, distinguishes sufferers of moral injury from PTSD sufferers who were witnesses to traumatic and morally abhorrent events. To this end, it clarifies how some of the situations surrounding moral injury are misunderstood, by discussing the process of moral reasoning in the context of moral dilemmas, dirty hands, and moral blind alleys. Finally, it concludes that when we conceptualise moral injury as being caused by one’s commissions and omissions in moral dilemmas, we find that shame and guilt are situation-appropriate responses with a role to play in what ethics mean.

Abstract:
SummaryRecognition of liability in negligence for personal injury, whether physical or psychiatric, is a question of public policy par excellence. In English tort law, public policy is a transparent judicial requirement in fixing liability even when negligence is established otherwise. In considering the tortious liability of a local authority to children in its care, the English House of Lords has, in obiter dicta, raised doubts as a matter of public policy concerning the enforceability of claims for damages by children against a parent for emotional neglect causing psychiatric injury. In Israel, by contrast, the Supreme Court recently extended tortious liability by enforcing the parental duty of care to children through a claim for psychiatric injury. So far Israeli law is unique in this development. Variations in judicial policy concerning the recognition of claims by children for psychiatric injury are considered here, in the contexts of English tort law, and Israeli, US and European human rights law.

Abstract:
The incidence of athletic injury is on the rise. Often overlooked in the injury treatment intervention process is the emotional component and the role of the mind. Because stress, panic, fear, and other emotions contribute to this crisis situation, it becomes essential for the sport psychologist to be part of the sports medicine team by offering psychological services and strategies to injured athletes. This article will discuss the mind-body connection in injury and offer practical strategies that the author has found useful in facilitating the healing and recovery process.

Abstract:
ObjectivesTo explore factors influencing confidence and willingness among laypersons in the UK to act in a head injury situation, in order to inform first aid education offered by the British Red Cross.DesignQualitative focus group study.SettingSouth East England.ParticipantsForty-four laypersons (37 women, 7 men) were purposively recruited from the general public using snowball sampling, into one focus group each for six population groups: parents of young children (n=8), informal carers of older adults (n=7), school staff (n=7), sports coaches (n=2), young adults (n=9) and ‘other’ adults (n=11). The median (range) age group across the sample was 25–34 years (18–24, 84–95). Participants were from Asian (n=6), Black (n=6), Mixed (n=2) and White (n=30) ethnic backgrounds.ResultsThe majority of participants described being confident and willing to act in a head injury scenario if that meant calling for assistance, but did not feel sufficiently confident or knowledgeable to assist or make decisions in a more involved way. Individuals’ confidence and willingness presented as fluid and dependent on an interplay of situational and contextual considerations, which strongly impacted decision-making: prior knowledge and experience, characteristics of the injured person, un/observed head injury, and location and environment. These considerations may be framed as enablers or barriers to helping behaviour, impacting decision-making to the same extent as—or even more so than—the clinical signs and symptoms of head injury. An individual conceptual model is proposed to illustrate inter-relationships between these factors.ConclusionsOur findings show that confidence and willingness to act in a head injury scenario are dependent on several contextual and situational factors. It is important to address such factors, in addition to knowledge of clinical signs and symptoms, in first aid education and training to improve confidence and willingness to act.

Abstract:
Objectives: The present study was conducted with the objective of identifying the cause of injuries in fast bowlers. Materials and Methods: The present study is a video analysis study, keywords such as “fast bowler’s injury,” “failure of bowling,” and “cricket injuries” were searched on YouTube. Bowling action was divided into four stages – Stage 1 – jump, Stage 2 – back foot contact, Stage 3 – front foot contact, and Stage 4 – follow-through. The type and timing of injury (stage) were noted after analyzing the videos. Results: Sixteen injuries were identified in five videos. It was observed that 15 athletes had acute injury to lower limb and 1 athlete had an acute injury to lower back. 13/16 injuries happened in Stage 2 and 3/16 injuries happened in Stage 4. Conclusion: Most of the injuries happened at the time of landing and follow-through. Therefore, improvement of ground conditions, especially around the bowling area, and addition of exercise-based injury prevention programs can reduce the risk of injuries. This is more important for young fast bowlers at the club levels and state levels, as proper training at an early stage, can prevent injuries in many young fast bowlers.

Abstract:
Objectives The purpose of this study was to derive appropriate intervention strategies and considerations for difficult situations in which domestic school counselors find it challenging to cope during nonsuicidal self-injury counseling processes. Methods To achieve this, we recruited 10 school counselors with over 5 years of experience as expert panelists and conducted three rounds of Delphi surveys. CVR(Content Validity Ratio) was caculated for each situation, and consensus was reached on appropriate intervention methods and considerations. Results As a result, a total of 34 appropriate interventions and 25 considerations were derived for six situations, including (1) situations involving parental indifference or refusal to cooperate, (2) ethical dilemmas related to confidentiality, (3) dealing with passive, non-voluntary clients, (4) situations where clients reject prescribed medication, (5) situations where cooperation from school members is difficult, and (6) situations where you are contacted late at night without any boundaries. Conclusions We hope that our findings can be utilized in the education of school counselors related to nonsuicidal self-injury counseling, contributing to the prevention of burnout and enhancing the effectiveness of self-injury counseling through the sharing of appropriate intervention methods.

Abstract:
Gymnastics is an increasingly popular sport and an important event in the Olympic Games. However, the number of unavoidable injuries in sports is also increasing, and the treatment after the injury is very important. We reduce the harm caused by the injury through the identification and research of pictures. Image preprocessing and other methods can in-depth learn about gymnastics sports injuries. We identify the injured pictures of athletes to know the injury situation. Through the analysis of the force of the athletes during exercise, they can be better integrated into picture recognition for sports injuries. More appropriate prevention and treatment measures are suggested.

Personality, trauma, research last 20 years showed that people in crisis are not only injured, suffering, but able to resist, withstand also solves life problems: not only adapt, but take courage to overcome difficulties, to love, to work, to construct, to let personality grow? Theoretically described in activity-meaning approach, focusing on positive aspects of extreme situation and meaning personality work with a traumatic experience (M. Magomed-Eminov, 1990, 2009) so that demonstrate resilience, coping, overcoming and hardiness. The study was aimed at identifying resistance in extreme situations by the comparative analysis of discourses of people with normal vision and impaired people with its various etiologies (blind from birth and have lost their vision due to injury). We tested manifestation of resistance in people with visual impairment (congenital or acquired as a result of injury), and sighted by a "Test of hardiness" (S. Maddi) and developed life situation interview. The sample (90 people) of three groups: 1) with intact vision, 2) loss of vision due to trauma, 3) with congenital visual impairment. The overall level of viability, control and risk taking). The third group demonstrated the highest score of hardiness. Comparative analysis showed statistically significant differences in these parameters between people with congenital impairment and two other groups, differences between people who lost vision due to trauma, and sighted are not significant. Qualitative analysis of crises experience showed that in traumatic loss the fact of blindness becomes one of the central problems in life experience and possibility of positive transformation and integration is less probable because loss of vision “completely changed their lives, former life meaning”. People with congenital visual impairment, showing similarities with sighted in allocation of types of loss and crisis situations (loss of a loved one, family breakdown, etc. ), but in description of effects and what they do with experience - more active and positive view on situation, future perspective and own efforts to overcome difficulties, to care of others, fulfill personality work which actually makes it possible to transform the hardiness into resilience, positive outcome of the disaster.

Abstract:
This qualitative, phenomenological study conducted in Israel consisted of interviews with 14 close relatives of murder victims whose cases generated media interest. The research offers a comprehensive view of the endeavors of the participants to be heard in both the criminal justice system and the media. The findings indicate that despite the growing recognition of co-victims’ rights and media attention to their narratives, both the justice system and the media disappoint these victims and largely fail to respond to their need to convey their messages. The participants experienced ‘lingual injury:’ the repudiation and muting of their own language in favor of professional jargon. Lingual injury is an innovative concept that describes particular aspects of secondary victimization; it contributes to the existing literature by enabling a detailed mapping of co-victims’ simultaneous difficulties in the interplay between the criminal justice system and the media. It highlights the need for developing professional tools, both legal and victimological, to alleviate this situation.

In the modern world there is a constant increase in the number of fires in residential and industrial premises, transport, which leads to injuries and often fatalities [4,15]. According to data of the summary reports on activity of territorial bureaus of forensic-medical examination of the Russian Federation at fires from thermal traumas and carbon monoxide poisoning 15 918 persons were lost in 2000 and 16 416 - in 2008. It makes about 3 % from all forensic medical autopsies [5]. A similar situation is typical for the Republic of Tajikistan [11]. By now, the causes, pathogenesis, pathomorphosis [6, 12], clinical and morphological features [1, 10], epidemiology of thermal injuries [5], combined effects of thermal and carbon monoxide [7, 9], injuries caused by mechanical effects of falling parts of a burning building and various objects [14] have been studied in sufficient detail.

Abstract:
Ultimate is a high-intensity, non-contact team sport played with a flying disc (e.g., frisbee). Despite the growing popularity of ultimate worldwide, there is limited information about the epidemiology of injury in the sport. The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview and synthesis of the literature on the epidemiology of injury in ultimate. A comprehensive search of the literature was conducted in five electronic databases (i.e., MEDLINE, Embase, AMED, SPORTDiscus, and AusportMed). All databases were searched from inception to 1 July 2020. A total of eleven studies were included and qualitatively synthesized. Injury incidence rate estimates ranged from 0.4 to 84.9 injuries per 1000 athlete-exposures. The lifetime prevalence of any injury and concussion were 100% and 26%, respectively. The most commonly injured body region was the lower limb, with the knee and thigh being the most frequently injured anatomical locations. The most frequent injury types were muscle injuries and superficial contusions. The most common injury situation was direct contact with another player. There is a substantial risk of injury in ultimate, in particular muscle strains and joint sprains to the knee and shoulder areas. Development and implementation of effective, sport-specific injury prevention initiatives, including improved injury risk management and sport safety culture, should be a priority to reduce the burden of injury in ultimate.

Abstract:
The traumatic nature of spinal cord injury necessitates adjustments for the individual physically, socially, vocationally and sexually, as well as placing great strain on the family. Although one would suspect a high prevalence of psychological disruption following spinal cord injury, there is still much debate concerning the extent of the psychological reaction to such a trauma. This situation can partly be attributed to the lack of systematic research characteristic of most studies in this area. This paper reviews more recent literature which has investigated psychological morbidity in persons with spinal cord injury. The inadequacies of this research are discussed and suggestions for future research and psychological treatment for the spinal injured are provided.

Abstract:
Cholecystectomy is one of the most common surgical procedure performed worldwide and therefore a common cause for iatrogenic biliary tract injury. Bile duct injuries are associated with significant morbidity and are a potentially fatal complication. Choledochodudenostomy in patients of post cholecystectomy bile duct injury can be done safely by experienced surgeons in CBD injuries distal to the confluence of the cystic and common hepatic duct after eradication of sepsis. Choledochoduodenostomy has its own technical advantages and it maintains the normal anatomy. As compared with a routine Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy, CDD is technically easier, faster, requires less manipulation of the CBD, and is more physiological. We present a case report of a patient of laparoscopic cholecystectomy with CBD injury managed with choledochoduodenostomy who did extremely well after procedure with no immediate and delayed postoperative complication.

Abstract:
IntroductionThe prerequisite of improving the situation of traffic accidents and injury prevention is to set up a “Road Traffic Accident and Victim Information System (RTAVIS)” which does not exist in Iran. The objective of this study was to compare the three major sources information including police, emergency medical service and hospitals to show the necessity of integrated road traffic injury surveillance system.MethodThis prospective cohort study has been done by pursuing each road traffic accident (RTA) case within 30 days of its occurrence by a draft questionnaire and data pooling from participating sources during one year.ResultsIn this study, after aggregating/ pooling the data from all organizations, it was finally revealed that during one year 254 injury crashes happened in Tehran–Abali road (with 45 Kilometer distance) in which 434 people were injured or died. Out of these injury crashes, Police and Emergency Medical Services (EMS) stated to be unaware of 67 and 51 cases, respectively. In other words, Police, pre- hospital emergency service and hospital have reported 56.2% 82.9% and 76.4% of the entire number of injuries or deaths respectively.ConclusionNone of the information sources including police, EMS and health care facilities has complete information about injuries and deaths caused by traffic accidents. It seems that formulating and implementing a centralized and multidisciplinary data collection system of national traffic accidents with the collaboration of police, Ministry of health and medical education (EMS and medical centers), forensic medicine, and Iranian Red Crescent is necessary.

Abstract:
Background: The factors associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury mechanism in professional American football players are not well-understood. Hypothesis: It was hypothesized that football-related and player-specific factors, such as position and body mass index (BMI), are associated with ACL injury mechanism in these athletes. Study Design: Descriptive epidemiology study. Methods: Videos of ACL tears occurring in National Football League (NFL) games over 6 consecutive seasons from 2014 to 2019 were reviewed by 2 orthopaedic surgeons who specialize in sports medicine. For each injury, the role of contact ( direct contact [contact to the injured knee/lower extremity], indirect contact [contact not involving the injured knee/lower extremity], or no contact) as well as playing situation and lower extremity position were recorded. Additional player characteristics, timing of injury, and surface information were obtained from NFL game-day and injury database statistics. Results: Of the 140 ACL tears, a minority occurred via direct contact to the injured lower extremity (30%), although this varied by position. Just over two-thirds (70%) of ACL tears in offensive linemen occurred via direct contact to the injured lower extremity, while wide receivers had no direct contact ACL tears. Elevated BMI was associated with a greater likelihood of ACL tears occurring via direct contact (53% in players with BMI ≥35 kg/m2 vs 24% in players with BMI <35 kg/m2; P = <.01). Rookies had the lowest percentage of direct contact ACL tears (18%; P = .22). ACL tears that occurred during the middle 8 weeks of the regular season resulted more often from direct contact (38%; P = .06). ACL tears that occurred in the third quarter were the most likely to occur via direct contact (44%), while those that occurred in the fourth quarter were the least likely to occur via direct contact (13%; P < .01). Conclusion: Although most NFL players sustained ACL tears via a noncontact mechanism (ie, through indirect or no contact), players with an elevated BMI, especially on the offensive line, were more likely to injure their ACL through direct contact. Position-dependent variance in injury mechanism may help guide injury prevention efforts in these athletes.

Abstract:
Acute kidney injury (AKI), formerly called acute renal failure (ARF), is clinically manifested as a reversible acute increase in nitrogen waste products, as measured by blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine levels. Contrast induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) is a potentially fatal complication of angiographic procedures caused by the use of contrast media (CM). It is the third most prevalent cause of hospital acquired acute renal damage, accounting for around up to 30% of cases. Contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) is defined as a greater than 25% or 0.5 mg/dl (44 μmol/l) increase in serum creatinine (Scr) from baseline within 3 days. More sensitive indicators of renal damage are sought, hence numerous tubular injury biomarkers are being studied. Multiple risk factors may lead to the development of CIN; these risk factors are classified as patient-related and procedure-related. Treatment of CIN Is primarily symptomatic and consist firstly of careful fluid and electrolyte management, although dialysis may be necessary in some cases. With available treatment options, prevention is the cornerstone of management.

Abstract:
The inception of organized youth sport in the United States began during the mid to late 1800s. With continual growth of organized youth sport throughout the twentieth century and into the twenty-first, youth sport has not been without important, and at times, serious implications. One of the implications involves injury in youth sport and the basic need for qualified youth sport coaches to care for injury situations that might arise during the course of regular season practices and games.One hundred fifty-four youth sport coaches from seven different youth sport organizations were surveyed to determine whether the coaches had the basic first aid (FA) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation/automated external defibrillation (CPR/AED) training to serve their young athletes in the event of an emergent or non-emergent injury or sudden illness. Additionally, coaches were asked whether they had the confidence to manage a basic emergency injury or illness situation should such an occurrence arise during the course of a sports season involving regular practices or game competition. Major findings of this study revealed that only 19% and 46% of the 154 youth sport coaches surveyed were formally trained with basic first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation certifications, respectively. Additional findings indicated that youth sport coaches holding one or two of the suggested certifications possessed more knowledge and confidence than those youth sport coaches who did not hold certification to use that knowledge when faced with FA injury or illness situation. In consideration of these findings, recommendations should be made to encourage or mandate youth sport coaches involved with organized youth sport to become FA and CPR/AED certified.

Abstract:
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become a beneficial treatment for patients with aortic valve stenosis deemed at high or even prohibitive risk for open surgery. The risk for severe complications is low (ranging between 0.2 % and 1.0 %); nevertheless, in approximately 1 % of patients emergency cardiac surgery (ECS) is required during TAVI. Aortic injury, embolization of the TAVI prosthesis, and myocardial injury are among the most frequent complications necessitating ECS. Mortality rates of ECS during TAVI are high, ranging between 45 % and 67 %, owing to the comorbid and fragile health status of TAVI patients. Therefore, avoidance of complications appears to be of utmost importance to improve outcomes. This review analysis the current literature in terms of incidence, causes, and outcomes of ECS during TAVI.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to report the current state of Korean medicine (KM) treatment on sports injury by implementing survey with volleyball team medical doctors participating in 2013-2014 season. Six KM doctors completed a questionnaire that includes injury parameters: type, location, situation, and pain scores. We collected 166 injury cases from 94 Korean male and female national volleyball players. Knee (25.9%), low back (13.3%), elbow, and ankle (8.4%) injuries were most common. Joint (41.6%) and muscle (30.7%) were major injured tissues. KM team medical doctors utilized acupuncture (40.4%), chuna manual therapy (16.0%), physical therapy (15.2%), taping (9.0%), and cupping (7.8%) to treat volleyball injuries. Any types of medications were used infrequently. Additional physical and exercise therapy were preferred after receiving acupuncture (both 46.9%). This study presented the preliminary injury profile of Korean elite volleyball players. Injury and treatment parameters could be useful to build advanced KM model in sport medicine.

Abstract:
Background: Vaccines have had a great impact on disease prevention and reducing mortality. Very rarely, vaccines also can result in serious adverse effects. In consideration of this fact, vaccine injury compensation programs have been implemented in many countries to compensate a vaccinee for associated adverse effects. The existing vaccine injury compensation system addresses routine immunization schemes. However, there are rising concerns about the compensation for adverse effects caused by new vaccines such as those developed for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This review focuses on vaccine injury compensation programs and highlights the necessity to include all upcoming new vaccines for COVID-19 and other emerging viral diseases in the compensation schemes. Methods: Published articles relating to vaccine compensation injury programs, vaccines, injuries, disabilities, illnesses, and deaths resulting from vaccination were searched in data bases. Through a careful review of the abstracts, 25 relevant articles were selected for analysis. Results: We identified 27 countries on four continents with vaccine injury compensation schemes: 17 countries in Europe, 7 countries in Asia, the United States, a Canadian Province and New Zealand. No programs were identified in Africa and in South America. Program design, funding, and eligibility for compensation vary vastly between countries. We identified 17 countries operating well-established vaccine injury compensation programs. However, minimal information is available on numerous other countries. Conclusion: We conclude that the vaccine injury compensation programs are available in limited number of countries across four continents - mostly in Europe. Lack of standard approach and scope of injury prevention and compensation programs across the countries exists. Some important limitations include limited scientific material, which hindered our research. Therefore, additional data concerning payout for each type of injury and the number of claimants related to a specific vaccine injury worldwide could provide a more comprehensive analysis.

Abstract:
Neck injury in rear-end car collisions is an increasing concern in the field of traffic safety. This injury commonly occurs at rear-end impact, however the injury mechanisms for whiplash remain a mystery. The purpose of this study is to quantitatively analyze the head and neck kinematics during the low-speed rear-end impact of automobiles. It is important to produce data that is related as closely as possible to the in vivo situation. So, we performed a sled test which simulated rear-end impacts with a velocity of 0.6 m/s with five normal healthy male subjects. 3-D motion analysis system was used to document motion data of two situations. When we compare the values of angular velocity and acceleration of head and neck, the peak magnitudes of inclined seated posture were smaller than those of upright seated posture. The result of this study is expected to provide insight that will aid in determining the mechanism of whiplash which is crucial to the identification of possible injury mechanisms.

Abstract:
Moral injury emerged in the healthcare discussion quite recently because of the difficulties and challenges healthcare workers and healthcare systems face in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Moral injury involves a deep emotional wound and is unique to those who bear witness to intense human suffering and cruelty. This article aims to synthesise the very limited evidence from empirical studies on moral injury and to discuss a better understanding of the concept of moral injury, its importance in the healthcare context and its relation to the well-known concept of moral distress. A scoping literature review design was used to support the discussion. Systematic literature searches conducted in April 2020 in two electronic databases, PubMed/Medline and PsychInfo, produced 2044 hits but only a handful of empirical papers, from which seven well-focused articles were identified. The concept of moral injury was considered under other concepts as well such as stress of conscience, regrets for ethical situation, moral distress and ethical suffering, guilt without fault, and existential suffering with inflicting pain. Nurses had witnessed these difficult ethical situations when faced with unnecessary patient suffering and a feeling of not doing enough. Some cases of moral distress may turn into moral residue and end in moral injury with time, and in certain circumstances and contexts. The association between these concepts needs further investigation and confirmation through empirical studies; in particular, where to draw the line as to when moral distress turns into moral injury, leading to severe consequences. Given the very limited research on moral injury, discussion of moral injury in the context of the duty to care, for example, in this pandemic settings and similar situations warrants some consideration.

Persons experiencing disabilities often face difficulties to establish and maintain intimate partnerships and the decision whether to live alone or with others is often not their own to make. This study investigates whether individual and country-level characteristics predict the partnership status and the living situation of persons with spinal cord injury (SCI) from 22 countries. We used data from 12,591 participants of the International SCI Community Survey (InSCI) and regressed partnership status and living situation on individual (sociodemographic and injury characteristics) and country-level characteristics (Human Development Index, HDI) using multilevel models. Females, younger persons, those with lower income, without paid work, more severe injuries, and longer time since injury were more often single. Males, older persons, those with higher income, paid work, less severe injuries, and those from countries with higher HDI more often lived alone. This study provides initial evidence for the claim that the partnership status and the living situation of people with SCI are influenced by sociodemographic and socioeconomic factors and are not merely a matter of choice, in particular for those with severe injuries.

Abstract:
The French situation with respect to mortality from unintentional injuries in children is far from satisfactory. International comparison is made difficult by statistical bias, but although excess injury mortality is decreasing in France, rates are higher than in most advanced European countries. Many regulations have been enacted during the past 30 years to reduce the economic and social burden of injuries, but political will is insufficient to establish a consolidated national program and enforcement of existing legislation is inadequate. Evaluation of preventive and educational programs is less than optimal; many attempts have not met basic methodologic requirements. The situation is improving, partly because of growing social concern. New regulations are in preparation, but solution of this major public health problem also demands behavioral change, which is much more difficult to effect than other measures. Greater commitment to research, proper evaluation of sound programs, and enforcement of existing law doubtless would reduce the excess morbidity and mortality resulting from unintended injuries to children.

Abstract:
In the technosphere, ensuring fire safety of hazardous production facilities is a priority task for preserving human health, life, material values, and the environment. Therefore, it is important to predict emergency situations and minimize their risks. The purpose of the study is to assess fire risks and the degree of damage in an emergency situation in the boiler room. The study was based on statistical data on accidents at thermal power plants and regulated methods for determining fire risks and the degree of damage from an accident at coal boiler houses. A predictive assessment of fire risks was based on the example of two accident scenarios, the affected areas and the possible number of injured people are determined. The dimensions of the danger zones are shown – a fatal injury at a distance of 20 m from the epicenter of the explosion with a 97 percent probability of injury. The probability of weak destruction of buildings in a populated area of 17 percent was established. In case of a predicted accident in the form of an explosion of a steam boiler, damaging factors can affect industrial buildings and boiler room personnel
