Preoperative lung ultrasound score and multifactorial predictors of 1-year mortality in geriatric hip fracture patients with pneumonia: a retrospective cohort study

Min Wang, Meng-ya Ruan, Feng-ze Wu, Tian-bing Fan

Abstract Background Preoperative pneumonia severity independently predicts postoperative mortality in elderly hip fracture patients, yet accurate assessment remains challenging. This study evaluated lung ultrasound score (LUS) for predicting 1-year mortality and compared its predictive performance with traditional risk scores. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 839 elderly (≥65 years) hip fracture patients treated between August 2019 and August 2023. After applying inclusion/exclusion criteria, 92 patients with pr …

Reentry on the Move: An Exploration of Black People on Parole’s Experiences Using Technology for Rideshare Services and Other Transportation Needs

Kaelyn Sanders

Transportation insecurity is a key reentry concern for people on parole and affects their ability to meet supervision requirements and personal needs. An increasing body of scholarship indicates that people on parole experience digital inequality, or a lack of access to technology and digital literacy skills. However, the literature on parole, transportation, and reentry has not explored how the digitalization of transportation services impacts people on parole’s ability to overcome transportation disadvantage. The …

(Re)inventing Genocide: Legal and Political Implications of the “Genocide of Soviet People” in (Post‐)Soviet Russia

Dmitry Dubrovskiy, Irina Rebrova

Abstract This article examines the emergence and instrumentalization of the concept of the “genocide of the Soviet people” in both Soviet and post‐Soviet contexts, tracing its historical evolution and contemporary use in chronological perspective. It situates the term within the Soviet period, demonstrating how discussions of mass violence and victimization were framed, and then follows its strategic reinterpretation in contemporary Russia. This article argues that Russian authorities have redefined and expanded th …

Emine Gozde Aydemir Guloksuz, Gulnur Celik Yilmaz, Yunus Emre Yilmaz, Alper Sari, Hakan Apaydin, Mehmet Akif Baltaci, Ayse Tugcenur Temiz Gencoglu, Ruveyda Sak Inal, Ekin Oktay Oguz, Suheyla Coteli, Sevinc Can Sandıkcı, Melih Pamukcu, Cem Ozisler

Abstract Background Atlantoaxial instability (AAI) is a well-recognized complication of rheumatoid arthritis (RA); however, its occurrence in elderly individuals without inflammatory rheumatic disease remains insufficiently investigated. Age-related degenerative and biomechanical changes may predispose geriatric patients to upper cervical instability independent of RA. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of radiographic atlantoaxial subluxation (AAS) in geriatric patients with and without RA and to assess w …

Real-Space Visualization of the Intrinsic Aging in n -type Mg 3 ( Sb , Bi ) 2 Thermoelectrics

Yuxiang Gong, Nuo Qu, Sumayya, Yu-Ke Zhu, Jianbo Zhu, Tinglu Song, Qianru Lin, Lankun Wang, Ran Xin, Fengkai Guo, Wei Cai, Yuan Yu, Jiehe Sui, Zihang Liu

Long-term stability in materials is commonly associated with resistance to external perturbations. Yet metastable defect populations may relax spontaneously even in the absence of environmental stimuli, reshaping macroscopic properties over extended timescales. Here, we show the real-space visualization of intrinsic aging of n -type Mg 3 ( Sb , Bi ) 2 under inert and room-temperature conditions after two-year storage by atomic-scale characterizations. Density-functional-theory calculations and machine-learning mole …

Family Members Experiences of Being Identified as a Family Caregiver to a Person Living With Dementia

Åke Grundberg, Taina Sormunen, Margareta Westerbotn

Globally, family members account for the main source of caregiving for people with dementia in ordinary housing. Providing informal care may have negative health consequences for relatives such as stress, reduced quality of life and depression. According to Swedish legislation, the social services should provide support to those who care for a relative who is elderly, has a long-term illness or a disability. However, it is not clear how family caregivers can be identified to be provided support. Identifying family …
