Clinical Characteristics of Major Trauma in Older Adults at an Australian Level 1 Trauma Service: A 10‐Year Retrospective Review

ANZ Journal of Surgery, Volume 96, Issue 6, Page 1625-1633, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background A shift in the age profile of major trauma patients creates new challenges to trauma system design. Examining historical trends of major trauma in older people allows us to better plan for an effective trauma system. This study explores the clinical characteristics of older adult trauma cases presenting to a level one trauma center ...

Assessing the prognostic utility of the De Ritis ratio in mortality prediction models for trauma intensive care unit patients

Hong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 33, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Background The De Ritis ratio (aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase, AST/ALT) has been reported as a prognostic biomarker in various medical conditions and has been associated with worse outcomes in trauma patients. However, its added prognostic value for trauma intensive care unit (ICU) patients remains unclear.

Predictors of Massive Transfusion in Patients With Hollow Organ Injury After Blunt Multiple Trauma: A Cohort of Blunt Bowel Mesenteric Injury

Emergency Medicine International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Massive transfusion (MT) is life‐saving for patients with exsanguination, especially after blunt abdominopelvic trauma, due to subtle manifestations. Blunt bowel mesenteric injuries (BBMIs), besides their potential risk of peritonitis, are still one of the few indications for emergency laparotomy for hemorrhagic shock in the era of ...

Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue Radiation Attenuation Is Associated With Increased 1‐Year Mortality in Polytrauma Patients

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Polytrauma patients with an Injury Severity Score (ISS) ≥ 16 have a high mortality rate. Early identification of patients at risk of mortality is key. Different risk stratification models are available; however, body composition on third lumbar computed tomography (L3 CT) is not routinely used.

Outcomes of Civilian Penetrating Rectal Injuries Associated With Genitourinary and Bony Injuries

World Journal of Surgery, Volume 49, Issue 10, Page 2933-2939, October 2025.
Extraperitoneal rectal injuries with associated bladder and/or bone injuries can be safely managed with fecal diversion, extraperitoneal bladder repair through cystostomy, and irrigation of bone and joint injuries, with minimal morbidity. ABSTRACT Background Combined rectal, bladder, and bone injuries are rare but associated with significant morbidity.

Improving trauma mortality prediction: Stress Hyperglycemia Ratio‐Integrated Index versus traditional glucose‐integrated Stress Index in a retrospective cohort study

Hong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 32, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract Background Stress hyperglycemia is a common response to trauma and critical illness, but conventional glucose measurements fail to distinguish stress‐induced from chronic hyperglycemia. The serum glucose‐to‐potassium ration, or stress index (SI), is a readily available marker that may reflect the severity of the physiologic stress response ...

Applicability of Anatomic and Physiologic Scoring Systems for the Prediction of Outcome in Polytraumatized Patients with Blunt Aortic Injuries

Diagnostics, 2021
Background: Most patients with blunt aortic injuries, who arrive alive in a clinic, suffer from traumatic pseudoaneurysms. Due to modern treatments, the perioperative mortality has significantly decreased.

Validation of the FASILA Score for Predicting Interventions and Outcomes in Traumatic Abdominal and Pelvic Injuries: A Prospective Clinical Study

World Journal of Surgery, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 1951-1959, July 2025.
The FASILA score is a 7‐point scale comprising the FAST (focused assessment with sonography in trauma), shock index, and serum lactate. We aimed to validate this score prospectively in patients with abdominal and pelvic trauma to predict the need for massive blood transfusion, laparotomy, and inhospital mortality.
