Vital Point-Finding Strategies Uncover Gradient-Flat Areas of Serious Community Losses.
•A woman with a history of Stage IA low-risk uterine adenosarcoma presented with shortness of breath and rib pain.•She was found to have recurrent metastatic disease with resultant fatal SVC Syndrome.•Better methods to determine which patients with uterine adenosarcoma are at risk of recurrence and death are needed.
The dual-mobility implant system has been shown to increase impingement-free range of motion and decrease dislocation risk by increasing the effective head size. In addition, the anatomic dual-mobility (ADM) cup offers relief between the acetabular shell rim and the iliopsoas tendon. This study was designed to review a series of hips implanted with the ADM acetabular cup to examine clinical outcomes after 5 years of implantation at multiple orthopaedic centers.

We retrospectively queried our prospectively collected total joint arthroplasty registry for patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty with an ADM cup from January 2008 to December 2012 at 4 different orthopaedic institutions and who had minimum 5-year follow-up. Harris Hip Scores and visual analog scale scores were evaluated. Postoperative complications, dislocations, and revisions for any reason were recorded.

A total of 142 patients had a mean follow-up of 5.7 years (range 5.0 to 8.0 years). Radiographic analysis showed no radiolucent line were also improved, supporting the use of this implant.
ADM prostheses were designed to reduce the risk of dislocation by increasing the size of the effective femoral head. In this multicenter study of ADM cups used in primary total hip arthroplasty, we demonstrated good clinical and radiographic outcomes, no dislocations, and no revisions at midterm 5-year minimum follow-up. Patient-reported outcome measures were also improved, supporting the use of this implant.
Specialized tables for direct anterior (DA) approach total hip arthroplasty (THA) have required an unscrubbed assistant for manipulation of the operative limb. A novel surgical table attachment designed for the DA approach is fully surgeon controlled and partially automated. The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes in patients who underwent THA through a DA approach with an assistant-controlled vs the surgeon-controlled (SC) table.

This is a retrospective study of 343 patients who underwent primary THA between January 2017 and October 2017. Two cohorts were established based on the surgical table used. Surgical and clinical data included the surgical time, length of stay, presence of pain (groin, hip, or thigh pain) at latest follow-up, and revision for any reason. Immediate postoperative radiographs were compared with latest follow-up radiographs to assess for leg length discrepancy, stem alignment, and stem subsidence.

One hundred sixty-seven (48.7%) cases were performed using thee in the operating room workflow.This data article provides research data on the perception of public-sector corruption in Mauritius, captured using a survey questionnaire as well as a thematic framework for the analysis of corruption court cases prosecuted by the national anti-corruption body, namely, the Independent Commission against Corruption (ICAC). A sequential mixed methods design was adopted. First, a quantitative approach was used, whereby a questionnaire was developed and administered on 600 persons to gauge public opinion on the perceived seriousness of the phenomenon of public-sector corruption in the country while at the same time recording citizens' perceived effectiveness of the ICAC in its fight against public corruption in Mauritius. Second, to cross-validate the quantitative findings on the perceived effectiveness of the ICAC in fulfilling its mandate as an anti-corruption agency, a content analysis of court judgments prosecuted by ICAC from 2002 to 2018, was conducted to find out whether or not the respondents' perceptions of the prosecutorial efficacy of the ICAC was justified. The questionnaire, the raw dataset as well as the analysis of court judgments can be downloaded from the Mendeley Data repository (https//data.mendeley.com/datasets/h8k5ghvhgh/1). The data may be reused for similar research in other parts of the world. The research findings have been published in The International Journal of Law, Crime, and Justice.Optimal feeding frequency in aquaculture is vital for the sustainable and economical production of healthy, high-quality fish. This article described the growth performance and survival rate data in the juvenile phase of two commercially important ornamental fish species; Betta splendens (Siamese fighting fish) and Poecilia reticulata (Guppy) reared at different feeding frequency. Thirty days old juveniles of both species were randomly distributed into 12 3 L rectangular plastic tank (n = 10 fish/tank; three replicates per feeding frequency) where they were subjected to four different feeding frequency treatments (1 meal/day (T1), 2 meal/day (Control), 3 meal/day (T2) and four meal/day (T3)) using commercial ornamental fish micropellets for 60 days. Abivertinib price The juvenile's weight and length were measured once a week while the number of live fish were recorded daily. The amount of feed intake was also recorded by weighing in the weight of micropellet left after feeding. At the end of the experimental period, the specific growth rate (SGR), food conversion ratio (FCR) and condition factor (K) were calculated for growth performance using the weight, length and feed intake data while the survival rate was calculated using the number of live fish data. Normality test, One-way ANOVA analysis followed by Tukey pos-hoc test were then performed on the data obtained from the calculation of SGR, FCR, K an survival rate. The data presented in this article will aid the rearing process of both species' juveniles for commercial, experimental and personal usage purpose.The ``Community Recovery after a Natural Disaster A Survey of Communities Affected by Mt. Merapi Eruptions'' data that are described herein were gathered 16 months after the 2010 Mt. Merapi volcanic eruptions in Central Java, Indonesia. Data collection was organized as a pilot effort to document victim experiences of the disaster; including disaster preparation, mitigation, and recovery. Three-stage clustered random sampling was conducted to create a sample that was representative of varying levels of destruction experienced by victims of the eruptions as well as one that included respondents who were still living in a disaster shelter, who had returned to their previous community, and who had moved on to a new community. By drawing respondents from 10 different villages or shelter communities, a total respondent sample of 400 was collected.
