    Abstract Introduction: Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) are a common class of medications prescribed to patients for hypertension. Anti-hypertensive use is not normally considered an important factor when treating patients with crotalid envenomations; however, in combination with the venom in this patient, it may have resulted in angioedema.
    Case report: A 65-year-old male on ACEI presented to his community emergency department following a snake envenomation to his thumb. Six vials of Crotalidae polyvalent immune fab were administered, and he was transferred to a referral center. Approximately 18 hours after the envenomation, the patient complained of tongue swelling and difficulty speaking. There was evidence of angioedema, with the right side of the tongue significantly enlarged compared to the left. He was intubated for airway protection and remained on a ventilator for three days.
    Conclusion: Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors may potentiate the effects of exogenous bradykinin as some snake venom has naturally occurring bradykinin, which may further amplify its effects. Extra vigilance may be warranted for the development of angioedema in patients receiving ACEI.

    Abstract The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been associated with a prothrombotic state during active infection with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). However, reports of delayed multisystemic COVID-19-associated thromboembolic sequelae are limited in the current literature. In addition, the initiation of prophylactic antithrombotic therapy in patients for the prevention of such events during and after infection remains controversial due to conflicting reports. Here, we present evidence to support that patients with comorbid conditions are at higher risk for multisystemic COVID-19-associated thromboembolic events and propose that beginning prophylactic therapy in this population could lead to more favorable outcomes. We describe a 67-year-old male who presented with left-sided weakness and worsening shortness of breath and was diagnosed with COVID-19 approximately one month prior. Initial computed tomography (CT) of the brain showed an age-indeterminate cerebellar infarct. On CT angiography (CTA) of the neck, a saddle embolus was incidentally found and was confirmed on an immediate follow-up chest CT. After consultation with neurology, a decision was made to administer thrombolytics at the standard recommended stroke dosing. The patient was admitted to the ICU and received mechanical thrombectomy two days later. At the time of hospital discharge, the patient still had left-sided weakness on examination and required no additional oxygen support. This report reviews the prevalence of delayed sequelae of COVID-19 and the benefit of prophylactic antithrombotic therapy during active and post-SARS-CoV-2 infection. It is important for emergency medicine physicians to recognize that patients who have recovered from COVID-19 are at high risk for delayed thromboembolic disease, even in the absence of personal or family history of coagulopathy. This underscores the necessity of obtaining imaging studies in high-risk patients who present with acute symptoms that cannot be explained by other probable causes. In addition, patients should be encouraged to follow up with their primary care providers to discuss prophylactic anticoagulation therapy as it could be beneficial during and post-COVID-19.

    Abstract Intergenerational transmission processes have long been of interest to demographers, but prior research on the intergenerational transmission of criminal justice contact is relatively sparse and limited by its lack of attention to the correlated "family troubles" and familial incarceration that predate criminal justice contact. In this article, we provide a test of the intergenerational transmission of criminal justice contact after adjusting extensively for these factors that predate such contact by linking longitudinal data from the Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods with official arrest histories from 1995 to 2020. The results provide support for three conclusions. First, parental criminal justice contact is associated with a shorter time to first arrest and a larger number of arrests even after rigorously accounting for selection. Second, robustness checks demonstrate that neither the magnitude nor the significance of the findings is sensitive to model choices. Third, associations are strongest among White individuals and inconsistently significant for African American and Hispanic individuals. Despite large recent crime declines, the results indicate that parental criminal justice contact elevates the criminal justice contact of the adult children of the prison boom, independent of the often-overlooked troubles that predate criminal justice contact, and that these associations are strongest among the White population.

    Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic provided the specialty of emergency medicine the opportunity to showcase what many knew all along: emergency physicians (EP) are well suited to deal with the unknown and can quickly adapt even with incomplete or limited information and resources. Emergency physicians in Missouri served in integral positions locally, nationally and internationally. Missouri EPs published numerous manuscripts on topics from basic science to clinical care. Device innovation also occurred with the development of protective devices for health care workers. As we approach the three-year mark of the COVID-19 pandemic, the burden of clinical care still weighs heavily on EPs. Each wave of the pandemic has brought challenges and spurred EPs to innovate in new ways. As Michigan EP Brian Zink, MD once said "Anyone, Anything, Anytime". These words correctly sum up emergency medicine. When others hesitated to care for COVID-19 patients, EPs stepped up despite uncertainty and risks to their own health. Emergency medicine has led the way and continues to innovate and push the envelope of emergency care.

    Abstract A 75-year old female presented in cardiac arrest with a right tibial intraosseous (IO) catheter through which prehospital medications were administered. The catheter, which had been placed by emergency medical services, was noted in the emergency department to be misplaced and was removed. Due to extravasation of the medications, the patient suffered localized tissue necrosis and eventually required skin grafting. This case illustrates the importance of confirming appropriate IO placement.
