European Organisation for Caries Research and the European Federation of Conservative Dentistry Consensus Report on Clinical Recommendations for Caries Diagnosis: Paper III - Caries Diagnosis at the Individual Level.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present consensus paper was to provide recommendations for clinical practice on the individual etiological and modifying factors to be assessed in the individual diagnosis of caries, and the methods for their assessment, supporting personalized treatment decisions. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The executive councils of the European Organisation for Caries Research (ORCA) and the European Federation of Conservative Dentistry (EFCD) nominated ten experts each to join the expert panel. The steering committee formed three work groups which were asked to provide recommendations on (1) caries detection and diagnostic methods, (2) caries activity assessment, and (3) forming individualized caries diagnoses. The experts responsible for "individualised caries diagnosis" searched and evaluated the relevant literature, drafted this manuscript and made provisional consensus recommendations. These recommendations were discussed and refined during the structured process in the whole work group. Finally, the agreement for each recommendation was determined using an anonymous eDelphi survey. The threshold for approval of recommendations was determined at 70% agreement. RESULTS: Ten recommendations were approved and agreed by the whole expert panel, covering medical history, caries experience, plaque, diet, fluoride, and saliva. While the level of evidence was low, the level of agreement was typically very high, except for one recommendation on salivary flow measurement, where 70% agreed. CONCLUSION: It is recommended that all aspects of caries lesion progression and activity, recent caries experience, medical conditions and medications, plaque, diet, fluoride and saliva should be synthesized to arrive at an individual diagnosis. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The expert panel merged evidence from existing guidelines and scientific literature with practical considerations and provided recommendations for their use in daily dental practice.

A triple cysteine motif as major determinant of the modulation of neuronal KV7 channels by the paracetamol metabolite N-acetyl-p-benzo quinone imine.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The analgesic action of paracetamol involves KV7 channels, and its metabolite N-acetyl-p-benzo quinone imine (NAPQI), a cysteine modifying reagent, was shown to increase currents through such channels in nociceptors. Modification of cysteine residues by N-ethylmaleimide, H2O2, or nitric oxide has been found to modulate currents through KV7 channels. The study aims to identify whether, and if so which, cysteine residues in neuronal KV7 channels might be responsible for the effects of NAPQI. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: To address this question, we used a combination of perforated patch-clamp recordings, site-directed mutagenesis, and mass spectrometry applied to recombinant KV7.1 to KV7.5 channels. KEY RESULTS: Currents through the cardiac subtype KV7.1 were reduced by NAPQI. Currents through all other subtypes were increased, either by an isolated shift of the channel voltage dependence to more negative values (KV7.3) or by such a shift combined with increased maximal current levels (KV7.2, KV7.4, KV7.5). A stretch of three cysteine residues in the S2-S3 linker region of KV7.2 was necessary and sufficient to mediate these effects. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATION: The paracetamol metabolite N-acetyl-p-benzo quinone imine (NAPQI) modifies cysteine residues of KV7 subunits and reinforces channel gating in homomeric and heteromeric KV7.2 to KV7.5, but not in KV7.1 channels. In KV7.2, a triple cysteine motif located within the S2-S3 linker region mediates this reinforcement that can be expected to reduce the excitability of nociceptors and to mediate antinociceptive actions of paracetamol.

ORCA-EFCD consensus report on clinical recommendations for caries diagnosis. Paper II: caries lesion activity and progression assessment.

INTRODUCTION: This consensus paper provides recommendations for oral health professionals on why and how to assess caries activity and progression with special respect to the site of a lesion. METHODS: An expert panel was nominated by the executive councils of the European Organization for Caries Research (ORCA) and the European Federation of Conservative Dentistry (EFCD). The steering committee built three working groups that were asked to provide recommendations on 1) caries detection and diagnostic methods, 2) caries activity and progression assessment and 3) obtain individualized caries diagnoses. The experts of work group 2 phrased and agreed on provisional general and specific recommendations on caries lesion activity and progression, based on a review of the current literature. These recommendations were then discussed and refined in a consensus workshop followed by an anonymous Delphi survey to determine the agreement on each recommendation. RESULTS: The expert panel agreed on general (n=7) and specific recommendations (n=6). The specific recommendations cover coronal caries on pits and fissures, smooth surfaces, proximal surfaces, as well as root caries and secondary caries/ caries adjacent to restorations and sealants (CARS). 3/13 recommendations yielded perfect agreement. CONCLUSION: The most suitable method for lesion activity assessment is the visual-tactile method. No single clinical characteristic is indicative of lesion activity; instead, lesion activity assessment is based on assessing and weighing several clinical signs. The recall intervals for visual and radiographic examination need to be adjusted to the presence of active caries lesions and recent caries progression rates. Modifications should be based on individual patient characteristics.

ORCA-EFCD consensus report on clinical recommendation for caries diagnosis. Paper I: caries lesion detection and depth assessment.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present consensus paper was to provide recommendations for clinical practice considering the use of visual examination, dental radiography and adjunct methods for primary caries detection. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The executive councils of the European Organisation for Caries Research (ORCA) and the European Federation of Conservative Dentistry (EFCD) nominated ten experts each to join the expert panel. The steering committee formed three work groups that were asked to provide recommendations on (1) caries detection and diagnostic methods, (2) caries activity assessment and (3) forming individualised caries diagnoses. The experts responsible for "caries detection and diagnostic methods" searched and evaluated the relevant literature, drafted this manuscript and made provisional consensus recommendations. These recommendations were discussed and refined during the structured process in the whole work group. Finally, the agreement for each recommendation was determined using an anonymous Delphi survey. RESULTS: Recommendations (N = 8) were approved and agreed upon by the whole expert panel: visual examination (N = 3), dental radiography (N = 3) and additional diagnostic methods (N = 2). While the quality of evidence was found to be heterogeneous, all recommendations were agreed upon by the expert panel. CONCLUSION: Visual examination is recommended as the first-choice method for the detection and assessment of caries lesions on accessible surfaces. Intraoral radiography, preferably bitewing, is recommended as an additional method. Adjunct, non-ionising radiation methods might also be useful in certain clinical situations. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The expert panel merged evidence from the scientific literature with practical considerations and provided recommendations for their use in daily dental practice.

High Complication and Revision Rates in Anatomical Total Shoulder Arthroplasty with the Combination of Polyethylene and Cementless Convertible Metal-Backed Glenoid Components: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Background: Historically, Metal-Backed (MB) glenoid components in anatomical total Shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) are prone to failure primarily due to loosening between the metal and bony surface. However, newer generations of MB glenoid components have performed well in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA), with convertibility being considered to be the most significant benefit of MB components. Theoretically, MB components may be a viable option in "Rotator cuff at risk" cases. The aim of this study is to compare revisions versus revision-free survivorship and highlight problems associated with using convertible MB glenoid components in aTSA. Methods: Between December 2015 and September 2018, aTSA was performed on 30 patients utilizing 32 implants with convertible MB glenoid (two patients were operated bilaterally). The first investigation was performed at a mean of 55.9 months (43-76) by search in the national registry for revisions with twelve cases. The second FU on all remaining patients without revisions was conducted at a mean of 54.9 months (46-71) through physical examination with fourteen patients (sixteen implants), with four patients missing. Demographic data, indications, complications, revisions, and re-operations were recorded for each patient. Results: High rates of complications led to revisions or re-operation in aTSA in combination with MB (15/32). Seven problems were associated with polyethylene (PE), which included loosening, disengagement, or wear. Eight complications were not directly associated with the MB component. There was one with loosening on the metal-bone interface side. Conversion to RSA was possible in three cases, and secondary cuff failure was seen once. High infection rates (2/32) led to a different strategy for antibiotics and preoperative preparations. Conclusion: MB glenoid components caused unacceptably high complication and revision rates in aTSA. PE wear, disengagement, or loosening were the main reasons for revisions. Therefore, procedures with MB glenoid components were abandoned in aTSA. Level of Evidence: Level IV case series, treatment study.

Is there a rise of prevalence for Molar Incisor Hypomineralization? A meta-analysis of published data.

Since Molar Incisor Hypomineralization was first described as a pathologic entity, public perception often suggests a considerable rise in prevalence of the respective disease. Since there are still considerable doubts regarding the etiology and-accordingly-prevention of MIH and respective therapeutic approaches are difficult this question is of considerable clinical and public interest. Accordingly, a systematic literature search in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines for systematic reviews on Medline, Cochrane Database, EMBASE, LILACS, Web of Science, Google scholar, Scopus was performed to retrieve original articles reporting the prevalence of MIH as defined by the European Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (EAPD). From initially 2360 retrieved titles, 344 full texts were assessed for possible inclusion and finally 167 articles of mainly moderate to high quality and based on data of 46'613 individuals were included in the meta-analysis. All studies published before 2001 had to be excluded since it was not possible to align the findings with the EAPD classification. Studies varied considerably regarding cohort size (25 to 23'320, mean 1'235)) and age (5.6-19 y, mean 9.8 y). Over all studies, the weighted mean for the prevalence for MIH was 12.8% (95% CI 11.5%-14.1%) and no significant changes with respect to either publication year or birthyear were found. A sub-analysis of eleven studies reporting on the prevalence in different age groups, however, revealed strong evidence for an increasing prevalence between the years 1992 (3%) and 2013 (13%).Therefore, based on data from cross-sectional studies a possible rise in prevalence of MIH remains unclear. Future prospective large-scale studies under standardized examination conditions with an emphasis on examiner calibration are needed to gain better understanding in the evolution of the prevalence of MIH.

2D and 3D Erosion Landscape Analysis of Endodontic-Treated Teeth Using EDTA and HEDP as Chelating Agents: A High-Resolution Micro-Computed Tomographic Study.

This study aimed to assess the amount of erosion during activated endodontic irrigation with either HEDP or EDTA via high-resolution micro-computed tomography. Two root canals of twenty premolars were prepared with ProTaper Next and irrigated with sodium hypochlorite. Palatal canals, which served as control groups, were sealed, while buccal canals were further irrigated with either EDTA (n = 10) or HEDP (n = 10), which served as test groups. Micro-CT was performed to measure erosion depth. For 2D and 3D measurements, non-parametric repeated ANOVA measurements and post hoc tests were performed. 2D analysis showed highly significant differences between the case groups at each position of the root (p ≤ 0.01). The cervical and apical positions showed significant differences in the EDTA group (p = 0.03). The 3D analysis also showed significant differences between both chelating agents (p < 0.01) and the case and control groups (p = 0.01). The mean erosion depths in the cervical, middle, and apical thirds of the EDTA group were 45.75, 41.79, and 32.25 µm, and for the HEDP group were 20.25, 16.40, and 15.96 µm, respectively. HEDP seems to have a significantly less erosive effect. Different irrigation protocols with harsher conditions, as might be the case during endodontic retreatment, could be assessed with micro-CT.

Jeremy Morris as a pioneer of behavioural epidemiology, social medicine and public health.

Seventy years ago, the Scottish epidemiologist Jeremy Morris published his seminal papers in exercise epidemiology, providing evidence of the positive relationship between physical activity levels and reduced mortality. Today, we may remember Morris's pivotal role in establishing physical activity as a key factor in preventive medicine and public health. The roots of the role of behavioural epidemiology in modern public health lay in Morris's research on the association of coronary heart disease with physical activity at work. In consequence, a new focus for public health emerged, with an emphasis on chronic disease as well as modification of lifestyle and individual behaviour. While the immense value of his research on the health benefits of exercise is widely recognised, his influence on the teaching of social medicine is generally less well-known. Morris was involved in the pioneering course of MSc in Social Medicine at the London School of Hygiene, which was emblematic of the redefining of public health in the late 1960s. Morris gave legitimacy to a wide range of issues regarded at that time as soft and second class, including health promotion, sociology and the care of people with disability and chronic conditions. In consequence of his observation of a relationship between socioeconomic status and individual behaviour patterns in regard to exercise, nutrition and smoking, Morris urged that greater attention be paid to inequalities.

Patterns of Morbidity Across the Lifespan: A Population Segmentation Framework for Classifying Health Care Needs for All Ages.

BACKGROUND: Classification systems to segment such patients into subgroups for purposes of care management and population analytics should balance administrative simplicity with clinical meaning and measurement precision. OBJECTIVE: To describe and empirically apply a new clinically relevant population segmentation framework applicable to all payers and all ages across the lifespan. RESEARCH DESIGN AND SUBJECTS: Cross-sectional analyses using insurance claims database for 3.31 Million commercially insured and 1.05 Million Medicaid enrollees under 65 years old; and 5.27 Million Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries aged 65 and older. MEASURES: The "Patient Need Groups" (PNGs) framework, we developed, classifies each person within the entire 0-100+ aged population into one of 11 mutually exclusive need-based categories. For each PNG segment, we documented a range of clinical and resource endpoints, including health care resource use, avoidable emergency department visits, hospitalizations, behavioral health conditions, and social need factors. RESULTS: The PNG categories included: (1) nonuser, (2) low-need child, (3) low-need adult, (4) low-complexity multimorbidity, (5) medium-complexity multimorbidity, (6) low-complexity pregnancy, (7) high-complexity pregnancy, (8) dominant psychiatric/behavioral condition, (9) dominant major chronic condition, (10) high-complexity multimorbidity, and (11) frailty. Each PNG evidenced a characteristic age-related trajectory across the full lifespan. In addition to offering clinically cogent groupings, large percentages (29%-62%) of patients in two pregnancy and high-complexity multimorbidity and frailty PNGs were in a high-risk subgroup (upper 10%) of potential future health care utilization. CONCLUSIONS: The PNG population segmentation approach represents a comprehensive measurement framework that captures and categorizes available electronic health care data to characterize individuals of all ages based on their needs.

Somatostatin receptor expression in Merkel cell carcinoma: correlation with clinical data.

BACKGROUND: Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare, high-grade neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) of the skin. Somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) are G protein-linked receptors that regulate cell proliferation and growth. SSTRs are expressed in many NENs; however, scant information is available on their expression in MCCs or their association with clinical parameters and patient outcomes. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This retrospective study was conducted at Helsinki University Hospital and the University of Helsinki. Using a tissue microarray, we investigated SSTR1-5 expression by immunohistochemistry in 99 MCC tissue samples. Samples were collected between 1983 and 2017 and coupled with the patients' clinical data. RESULTS: SSTR2-SSTR5 were detected in 69%, 6%, 4%, and 1% of the tumours, respectively. However, SSTR1 expression was not observed. Cytoplasmic SSTR2 positivity was associated with metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis (p = 0.009), but it did not correlate with disease-specificity or overall survival. CONCLUSION: SSTR2-5 expression was observed in MCCs. In particular, SSTR2 expression is clinically valid because it is associated with metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis and can thus serve as a prognostic marker. Moreover, SSTR2 overexpression provides a molecular basis for tumour imaging and treatment with somatostatin analogues.

Nutrition in the Management of ADHD: A Review of Recent Research.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Various nutrients and diet quality have been suggested to be involved in the pathophysiology of ADHD. The purpose of this review was to examine data from recent cohort studies and dietary interventions to determine whether nutrition may play a role in the management of ADHD. RECENT FINDINGS: Preliminary evidence suggests that minerals might have beneficial effects on ADHD symptomatology. Probiotics might offer novel strategies to prevent or treat ADHD. Inverse associations between adherence to "healthy" diets and ADHD symptoms have been observed. Children with ADHD responding to the few-foods diet (or oligoantigenic diet) with an elimination of individually identified food items show substantially improved behavior and cognitive functioning. Evidence from recent research does not allow any recommendations regarding the use of micronutrients or probiotics in the management of ADHD. The few-foods diet may become an additional therapeutic option for children with ADHD.

An integrated cellular and molecular model of gastric neuroendocrine cancer evolution highlights therapeutic targets.

Gastric neuroendocrine carcinomas (G-NEC) are aggressive malignancies with poorly understood biology and a lack of disease models. Here, we use genome sequencing to characterize the genomic landscapes of human G-NEC and its histologic variants. We identify global and subtype-specific alterations and expose hitherto unappreciated gains of MYC family members in a large part of cases. Genetic engineering and lineage tracing in mice delineate a model of G-NEC evolution, which defines MYC as a critical driver and positions the cancer cell of origin to the neuroendocrine compartment. MYC-driven tumors have pronounced metastatic competence and display defined signaling addictions, as revealed by large-scale genetic and pharmacologic screening of cell lines and organoid resources. We create global maps of G-NEC dependencies, highlight critical vulnerabilities, and validate therapeutic targets, including candidates for clinical drug repurposing. Our study gives comprehensive insights into G-NEC biology.

Sport and physical exercise in sustainable mental health care of common mental disorders: Lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic.

The large-scale disruptions to physical activity during the coronavirus pandemic have been found to be a leading predictor of common mental disorders. In addition, regular physical exercise has been found to alleviate anxiety, sadness and depression during the pandemic. These findings, together with numerous studies published before the pandemic on the effects of physical activity on mental health, should be considered in the provision of mental health care following the pandemic. Cross-sectional research has revealed that all types of exercise and sport are associated with a reduced mental health burden. Therefore, the effectiveness of exercise and sport participation in sustainable mental health care as well as the causal relationship between exercise, psychosocial health and common mental disorders merit further investigation. Physical activity and sport, with their global accessibility, significant and clinically meaningful efficacy as well as virtual absence of adverse effects, offer a promising option for the promotion of mental health, including the prevention and treatment of common mental disorders. Physical exercise and sport are likely to become valuable public mental health resources in the future.

Previous rotator cuff repair increases the risk of revision surgery for periprosthetic joint infection after reverse shoulder arthroplasty.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have indicated an increased risk of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in patients treated with reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) compared with patients treated with anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty. The reason for this is unclear but may be related to a high prevalence of previous rotator cuff repair in patients who are treated with RSA. The purpose of this study was to determine previous non-arthroplasty surgery as a risk factor for revision owing to PJI after RSA for cuff tear arthropathy, massive irreparable rotator cuff tears, or osteoarthritis. METHODS: Data were retrieved from the Danish Shoulder Arthroplasty Registry and medical records. We included 2217 patients who underwent RSA for cuff tear arthropathy, massive irreparable rotator cuff tears, or osteoarthritis between 2006 and 2019. PJI was defined as ≥3 of 5 tissue samples positive for the same bacteria or as definite or probable PJI evaluated based on criteria from the International Consensus Meeting. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to illustrate the unadjusted 14-year cumulative rates of revision. A Cox regression model was used to report hazard for revision owing to PJI. Results were adjusted for previous non-arthroplasty surgery, sex, diagnosis, and age. RESULTS: Revision was performed in 88 shoulders (4.0%), of which 40 (1.8%) underwent revision owing to PJI. There were 272 patients (12.3%) who underwent previous rotator cuff repair, of whom 11 (4.0%) underwent revision owing to PJI. The 14-year cumulative rate of revision owing to PJI was 14.1% for patients with previous rotator cuff repair and 2.7% for patients without previous surgery. The adjusted hazard ratio for revision owing to PJI for patients with previous rotator cuff repair was 2.2 (95% confidence interval, 1.04-4.60) compared with patients without previous surgery. CONCLUSION: There is an increased risk of revision owing to PJI after RSA for patients with previous rotator cuff repair. We recommend that patients with previous rotator cuff repair be regarded as high-risk patients when considering RSA.

RoBDEMAT: A risk of bias tool and guideline to support reporting of pre-clinical dental materials research and assessment of systematic reviews.

OBJECTIVES: To develop a risk of bias tool for pre-clinical dental materials research studies that aims to support reporting of future investigations and improve assessment in systematic reviews. METHODS: A four-stage process following EQUATOR network recommendations was followed, which included project launch, literature review, Delphi process and the tool finalization. With the support of the European Federation of Conservative Dentistry (EFCD) and the Dental Materials Group of the International Association for Dental Research (DMG-IADR), a total of 26 expert stakeholders were included in the development and Delphi vote of the initial proposal. The proposal was built using data gathered from the literature review stage. During this stage, recent systematic reviews featuring dental materials research, and risk of bias tools found in the literature were comprehensively scanned for bias sources. The experts thus reached a consensus for the items, domains and judgement related to the tool, allowing a detailed guide for each item and corresponding signalling questions. RESULTS: The tool features nine items in total, spread between 4 domains, pertaining to the following types of bias: bias related to planning and allocation (D1), specimen preparation (D2), outcome assessment (D3) and data treatment and outcome reporting (D4). RoBDEMAT, as presented, features signalling questions and a guide that can be used for RoB judgement. Its use as a checklist is preferred over a final summary score. CONCLUSION: RoBDEMAT is the first risk of bias tool for pre-clinical dental materials research, supported and developed by a broad group of expert stakeholders in the field, validating its future use. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: This new tool will contribute the study field by improving the scientific quality and rigour of dental materials research studies and their systematic reviews. Such studies are the foundation and support of future clinical research and evidence-based decisions.

Do magnification loupes affect the precision of cavity preparations made by undergraduates? A randomized crossover study.

BACKGROUND: Evidence on the effect of magnification devices on procedure quality in restorative dentistry is scant. This study therefore aimed to assess, under simulated clinical conditions, if magnification loupes affect the quality of preparations carried out by undergraduate dental students. METHODS: 59 undergraduate dental students underwent two visual acuity tests, based on which they were divided into a "low visual acuity group" (visus < 1) and a "good visual acuity group" (visus ≥ 1). In a randomized crossover experiment, participants performed a two-dimensional S and a three-dimensional O figure preparation with a dental handpiece on standardized acrylic blocs designed for preclinical restorative training. Each participant carried out the preparation tasks twice, once with magnification loupes (2.5×) and once without. Two blinded investigators independently evaluated parameters of preparation precision. Data were analyzed using Spearman rank correlation coefficients, intra-class correlation coefficients, and Wilcoxon rank-sum tests (α = 0.05). RESULTS: Participants from the "low visual acuity group" did not show a statistically significant improvement in accuracy when they used magnification loupes for the S figure preparation (p ≥ 0.0625). Participants from the "high visual acuity group" obtained a higher level of accuracy (p ≤ 0.0012) when they used magnification loupes for the S figure preparation. The use of magnification loupes had no statistically significant effect on the accuracy parameters of the O figure cavity preparations (p ≥ 0.1865). Participants with high visual acuity achieved only a marginally better accuracy than participants with a visus < 1. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that loupes with 2.5× magnification increase the accuracy of two-dimensional preparations while they have no significant effect, favorable or otherwise, on the accuracy of complex, three-dimensional cavity preparations of untrained dental students.

Severe isolated injuries have a high impact on resource use and mortality: a Dutch nationwide observational study.

PURPOSE: The Berlin poly-trauma definition (BPD) has proven to be a valuable way of identifying patients with at least a 20% risk of mortality, by combining anatomical injury characteristics with the presence of physiological risk factors (PRFs). Severe isolated injuries (SII) are excluded from the BPD. This study describes the characteristics, resource use and outcomes of patients with SII according to their injured body region, and compares them with those included in the BPD. METHODS: Data were extracted from the Dutch National Trauma Registry between 2015 and 2019. SII patients were defined as those with an injury with an Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) score ≥ 4 in one body region, with at most minor additional injuries (AIS ≤ 2). We performed an SII subgroup analysis per AIS region of injury. Multivariable linear and logistic regression models were used to calculate odds ratios (ORs) for SII subgroup patient outcomes, and resource needs. RESULTS: A total of 10.344 SII patients were included; 47.8% were ICU admitted, and the overall mortality was 19.5%. The adjusted risk of death was highest for external (2.5, CI 1.9-3.2) and for head SII (2.0, CI 1.7-2.2). Patients with SII to the abdomen (2.3, CI 1.9-2.8) and thorax (1.8, CI 1.6-2.0) had a significantly higher risk of ICU admission. The highest adjusted risk of disability was recorded for spine injuries (10.3, CI 8.3-12.8). The presence of ≥ 1 PRFs was associated with higher mortality rates compared to their poly-trauma counterparts, displaying rates of at least 15% for thoracic, 17% for spine, 22% for head and 49% for external SII. CONCLUSION: A severe isolated injury is a high-risk entity and should be recognized and treated as such. The addition of PRFs to the isolated anatomical injury criteria contributes to the identification of patients with SII at risk of worse outcomes.
